Abstract

The basidiomycete C30 was considered as an isolate of a population of Marasmius quercophilus collected on evergreen oak litter from the Mediterranean forest. Recent phenotypic studies have clearly shown that it differs from newly characterized M. quercophilus isolates. Subsequent analysis of laccase genes revealed that C30 sequences are similar to laccase encoding sequences from organisms belonging to the polyporoid clade. Comparison of sequences of the C30 ITS regions, including 5.8S rDNA, with those found in databanks confirmed that C30 is not a Marasmius. Finally, 25S rDNA analysis revealed that C30 is closely related to the Coriolaceae and, in particular, to Trametes trogii.
