Xylodon daii has a coriaceous basidiomata with a hydnoid hymenophore and a monomitic hyphal system having generative hyphae with clamp connections, and ellipsoid to subcylindrical basidiospores measuring as 4–5.2 × 2.8–3.5 µm. Sequences of the ITS and nLSU rRNA markers of the studied samples were generated, and phylogenetic analyses were performed using the maximum likelihood, maximum parsimony, and Bayesian inference methods. After a series of phylogenetic studies, the ITS+nLSU analysis of the order Hymenochaetales indicated that, at the generic level, six genera, (i.e., Fasciodontia, Hastodontia, Hyphodontia, Lyomyces, Kneiffiella and Xylodon) were accommodated the members of Hyphodontia sensu lato, and the genus Xylodon grouped with Lyomyces within the Hymenochaetales. According to a further analysis of the ITS dataset, X. daii was nested into the genus Xylodon, in which it was retrieved as a sister to X. pseudotropicus.","PeriodicalId":20114,"journal":{"name":"Phytotaxa","volume":"16 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2024-01-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139438576","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Based on a literature review, herbarium specimen examinations and field observations, six species are now recognised for this group. It is confirmed that the name A. kalkora had long been misapplied to the most widely distributed Albizia species in China. The correct name for this species is A. macrophylla, which was previously treated as a synonym of A. lebbeck. The identity of A. kalkora, which was based on material from Bihar Province, northern India, remains unknown, but a brief summary of its taxonomic history is provided. Albizia henryi and A. duclouxii are resurrected from the synonymy of A. kalkora. Albizia simeonis, which was formerly a synonym of A. kalkora, is here treated a synonym of A. henryi. Albizia calcarea is resurrected from the synonymy of A. garrettii and is newly reported from Guangdong, Guizhou and Hunan Provinces of China, and from northern Vietnam. The close relationship between A. calcarea, A. duclouxii and A. henryi is discussed. Further study of A. duclouxii is needed to better-assess its rank and its relationship to its two close relatives. Lectotypes are designated for A. calcarea, A. garrettii, A. henryi, and A. esquirolii. Former holotype citations are corrected to lectotypes for A. duclouxii and A. simeonis.
