Abstract

Bondarzewia indohimalayana, a species collected from mixed temperate forest of Uttarakhand Himalaya in northern India, is proposed here as new to science. This mushroom is characterized by zonate pilei with different shades of brown, pale yellow margin with reddish tinge, irregular pores, thick context that turns pink to dark red with guaiacol, clavate to cylindrical basidia and narrow subconical to winged warts of basidiospores. The present communication deals with the morphological details and a combined (nrITS and nrLSU) phylogeny of this undescribed species. Its relation to allied (Asian and extralimital) species is discussed and a provisional key to the species of Bondarzewia is presented.
