Abstract
In 2023, fungal specimens were collected from the Tınaztepe Campus of Dokuz Eylül University (İzmir-Türkiye). These samples underwent a comprehensive and meticulous evaluation involving morphological examination and phylogenetic analysis based on nrITS rDNA sequencing. The DEU AKATA & SAHIN 148 samples exhibited microscopic and macroscopic characteristics that closely matched those of Rhodocybe asyae, initially described by Sesli & Vizzini. The genetic sequence analysis revealed over 99% similarity with R. asyae Sesli & Vizzini. This report represents the second recorded occurrence of R. asyae in Türkiye and the third globally. The study documents the collection site, geographical coordinates, habitat observations, the collection date, etc. Furthermore, the research provides macroscopic photographs, microscopic illustrations of the specimens, and detailed discussion, demonstrating the reliability of the present findings.
