Abstract
Three new species of Artomyces from the Gaoligong Mountains and adjacent areas of southwestern China, namely, A. brunneoalbus, A. hirtipes, and A. pteruloides, are described based on morphological characteristics, molecular phylogenetic evidence, and ecological traits. Two other species described recently, A. niveus and A. yunnanensis, have also been identified in the same area. In addition, the occurrence of A. pyxidatus in southwestern China and North Macedonia was confirmed. Our study indicated that the species diversity of Artomyces is relatively high in East Asia. To date, seven species of Artomyces have been reported from the region, including the aforementioned species and A. microsporus. Given the diversity of forest ecosystems, from tropical to temperate areas in China, additional species of the genus could be revealed in the future.
期刊介绍:
International in coverage, Mycologia presents recent advances in mycology, emphasizing all aspects of the biology of Fungi and fungus-like organisms, including Lichens, Oomycetes and Slime Molds. The Journal emphasizes subjects including applied biology, biochemistry, cell biology, development, ecology, evolution, genetics, genomics, molecular biology, morphology, new techniques, animal or plant pathology, phylogenetics, physiology, aspects of secondary metabolism, systematics, and ultrastructure. In addition to research articles, reviews and short notes, Mycologia also includes invited papers based on presentations from the Annual Conference of the Mycological Society of America, such as Karling Lectures or Presidential Addresses.
