Abstract

Xerophorus donadinii (Bon) Vizzini, Consiglio & M. Marchetti has been identified from the Mediterranean Region of Turkey based on morphological characters and molecular phylogenetic studies. A combined dataset generated from nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer and nuclear ribosomal DNA large subunit gene sequences is used to assess its position within Callistosporiaceae. Color photographs from its natural habitat, morphological descriptions and line-drawings of microscopic characters are provided.

Highlights

  • The genus Xerophorus (Bon) Vizzini, Consiglio & M

  • We provide morphological features and genetic data of X. donadinii from Mediterranean region of Turkey

  • There is not much study in the genus Xerophorus, which is represented by only three species worldwide

Summary

Introduction

The genus Xerophorus (Bon) Vizzini, Consiglio & M. The species of the genus Xerophorus is characterized with spaced, thick lamellae, hygrophoroid basidia up to 50 μm long, whitish spore-print, smooth and amygdaliform spores up to 10 μm long, and a bluish-green reaction in basic solutions [3]. Three species of this genus have been identified so far, which are Xerophorus donadinii (Bon) Vizzini, Consiglio & M. Marchetti and Xerophorus olivascens (Boud.) Vizzini, Consiglio & M.
