Abstract

Three new species, Candolleomycesincanus, C.subcandolleanus and C.yanshanensis, were found and described from Yanshan Mountains in China. The identification is based on morphological observation combined with phylogenetic analysis of ITS-LSU-Tef1α-TUB2. This study enriched the species diversity of Candolleomyces in Yanshan Mountains and provided important data support for the systematic study of Candolleomyces in the future.

Keywords: Psathyrellaceae; molecular systematics; new taxon; taxonomy.
