Multigene molecular phylogeny and morphological evidences reveal one new species and three new records of boletoid fungi from India

Abstract

During routine macrofungal surveys to two different states of India: Uttarakhand and Meghalaya in 2022 to 2023, authors came across several taxa of Boletoid mushrooms (Boletaceae) which after thorough examination appeared to be novel or interesting. In the present communication, one new species (Harrya olivaceobrunnea) and three new records for Indian mycobiota (Aureoboletus miniatoaurantiacus, Boletus bainiugan and Rugiboletus extremiorientalis) are presented with morphology and multigene molecular phylogeny.

Keywords
