Abstract

A new corticioid species with a pinkish fruiting body is described from East Azerbaijan Province, Iran, based on nuclear ITS and LSU sequence data and morphology. Erythricium atropatanum sp. nov. is recognized by its closely adnate, pinkish fruiting body, large and broadly ellipsoid to fusoid basidiospores with densely granulate contents, and lack of clamps. The species is nested in Corticiales and the grounds for its generic designation are discussed. A key to the known species of Erythricium is presented.
