Abstract – This contribution on the genus Cantharellus in North America introduces three
new look-alikes of already known species in the eastern United States and thereby exposes
the problem of species delimitation in Cantharellus. The small, reddish pink to orange
C. corallinus sp. nov. is yet another look-alike of C. cinnabarinus, while the new

... Moreover, the new specimens match well with the protologue of C. hygrophoroides, except that the color of the pileal surface is described as "bright red" by Shao et al. (2014) whereas that of our new specimens is distinctly orange-yellow. It is worth noting the color of Cantharellus species sometimes is not constant (Buyck et al., 2016c;Olariaga et al., 2017); thus, we suggest these new specimens are C. hygrophoroides although the color of the pileal surface between our new collections and the holotype of C. hygrophoroides is slightly different. ...

Cantharellus, one of the main genera of Hydnaceae (Cantharellales), is both ecologically and economically important. Although many studies have focused on this genus in China, the taxonomy should be further updated. In the present study, Cantharellus subgenera Afrocantharellus and Magni were investigated based on morphology and molecular phylogenetic analyses with new collections from China. Five phylogenetic species were recognized among the studied collections, three of which were described as new: C. bellus, C. cineraceus, and C. laevigatus; one was previously described taxon: C. hygrophoroides; and the remaining species was not defined due to the paucity of the materials. Among the four described species, both C. bellus and C. laevigatus are members of subgen. Magni, whereas C. cineraceus and C. hygrophoroides belong to subgen. Afrocantharellus.
... Cantharellus flavolateritius was described from North Carolina in the USA and resembles C. laevihymeninus in having a decurrent and almost smooth hymenophore, stipes bruising darker when injured, absence of cystidia and presence of clamps. However, Cantharellus flavolateritius differs from the new species by having slenderer basidiospores (4.2-5.2 μm), longer basidia (up to 85 μm), 5 sterigmata and longer terminal cells (up to 70 μm long) of the pileipellis (Buyck et al. 2016b). Cantharellus lateritius is similar to C. laevihymeninus in having yellow to orange fruit bodies, sometimes concrescent stipes, ellipsoid spores and absence of cystidia, but differs by larger basidiocarps (up to 9 cm wide and 12 cm high), partly smooth hymenophore, thin-walled hyphae in pileipellis and (3-)4-5 sterigmata (Petersen 1979a, Buyck 2014 Description: Basidiocarps solitary, fleshy and fragile when fresh, becoming soft corky and light in weight upon drying. ...
The family Hydnaceae (Cantharellales, Basidiomycota) is a group of fungi found worldwide which exhibit stichic nuclear division. The group is highly diverse in morphology, ecology, and phylogeny, and includes some edible species which are popular all over the world. Traditionally, Hydnaceae together with Cantharellaceae, Clavulinaceae and Sistotremataceae are four families in the Cantharellales. The four families were combined and redefined as “Hydnaceae”, however, a comprehensive phylogeny based on multiple-marker dataset for the entire Hydnaceae sensu stricto is still lacking and the delimitation is also unclear. We inferred Maximum Likelihood and Bayesian phylogenies for the family Hydnaceae from the data of five DNA regions: the large subunit of nuclear ribosomal RNA gene (nLSU), the internal transcribed spacer regions (ITS), the mitochondrial small subunit rDNA gene (mtSSU), the second largest subunit of RNA polymerase II (RPB2) and the translation elongation factor 1-alpha gene (TEF1). We also produced three more phylogenetic trees for Cantharellus based on 5.8S, nLSU, mtSSU, RPB2 and TEF1, Craterellus and Hydnum both based on the combined nLSU and ITS. This study has reproduced the status of Hydnaceae in the order Cantharellales, and phylogenetically confirmed seventeen genera in Hydnaceae. Twenty nine new taxa or synonyms are described, revealed, proposed, or reported, including eight new subgenera (Cantharellus subgenus Magnus, Craterellus subgenus Cariosi, subg. Craterellus, subg. Imperforati, subg. Lamelles, subg. Longibasidiosi, subg. Ovoidei, and Hydnum subgenus Brevispina); seventeen new species (Ca. laevihymeninus, Ca. magnus, Ca. subminor, Cr. badiogriseus, Cr. croceialbus, Cr. macrosporus, Cr. squamatus, H. brevispinum, H. flabellatum, H. flavidocanum, H. longibasidium, H. pallidocroceum, H. pallidomarginatum, H. sphaericum, H. tangerinum, H. tenuistipitum and H. ventricosum); two synonyms (Ca. anzutake and Ca. tuberculosporus as Ca. yunnanensis), and two newly recorded species (H. albomagnum and H. minum). The distinguishing characters of the new species and subgenera as well as their allied taxa are discussed in the notes which follow them. The delimitation and diversity in morphology, ecology, and phylogeny of Hydnaceae is discussed. Notes of seventeen genera which are phylogenetically accepted in Hydnaceae by this study and a key to the genera in Hydnaceae are provided.
... In the American continent, especially from USA, new species of Cantharellus had been proposed, several of them look-alikes of the commonly cited C. cibarius Fr., C. cinnabarinus Fr. and C. lateritius (Berk.) Singer (Arora and Dunham 2008;Buyck et al. 2010Buyck et al. , 2016aFoltz et al. 2013;Leacock et al. 2016; Thorn et al. 2017). Further explorations in tropical America are achieving also the discovery of undescribed species of the genus (e.g. ...

We constructed a concatenated dataset, using PhyDE v.0.9971 (Müller et al. 2010), with 19 sequences obtained here (nLSU and tef-1α) (Table 1), together with sequences of related taxonomic groups, and additionally taking as reference works on chantarelles by An et al. (2017), Buyck et al. (2014Buyck et al. ( , 2016a, Herrera et al. (2018) and Olariaga et al. (2017). The dataset was aligned with MAFFT online service (Katoh et al. 2019), and the inconsistencies were corrected manually. ...
... Cantharellus veraecrucis is distinguished by the basidiome colors, hymenophore smooth (or at times discontinuously rugulose) with pinkish tinges, and pileus surface with appressed fibrils. In some stage of development, it superficially might look like C. flavolateritius; this latter, however, according to Buyck et al. (2016a) exhibits bright yellow colors on pileus, the hymenophore is composed of radially oriented, low anastomosing veins,"… locally almost smooth…", paler stipe (yellow to off-white), narrowly ellipsoid, somewhat phaseoliform basidiospores (7.1-) 7.2-7.88-8.5 (-10.0) × (4.0-) 4.2-4.71-5.2 ...
Two new species of yellow Cantharellus and a new record of Cantharellus tabernensis associated with tropical species of Quercus are presented, based on the taxonomic study of fresh specimens and in a phylogenetic analysis of transcription elongation factor 1-alpha (tef-1α) and the large subunit of the ribosome (nLSU) sequences. One of the new species proposed here, corresponds to a choice edible mushroom, which, in our molecular phylogeny, resulted in it being related to the group of species around C. lateritius and sister with Craterellus confluens type specimen. This latter is here formally transferred to Cantharellus and consequently a new name, Cantharellus furcatus, is proposed to replace the homonym Cantharellus confluens (Schwein.) Schwein. 1834 a later synonym of Byssomerulius corium. Detailed macroscopic and microscopic descriptions accompanied with illustrations and a taxonomic discussion are presented for each species.
... ex Fr. (1821: 316) (Cantharellaceae, Cantharellales), are widely distributed in Europe, Africa, Asia and North America (Corner 1966;Kumari et al. 2011;Suhara and Kurogi 2015;Leacock et al. 2016;Buyck et al. 2018) and are important for their edibility and mycorrhizal properties (Pilz et al. 2003;Yun & Hall 2004;Shao et al. 2012). Molecular-based studies have delimited more species within the genus and revealed unexpected species diversity (Buyck et al. 2011(Buyck et al. , 2013(Buyck et al. , 2016Foltz et al. 2013;Leacock et al. 2016). In China, numerous Cantharellus species have been described or reported (Chiu 1973;Zang 1980;Wei et al. 2008;Tian et al. 2009Tian et al. , 2012Shao et al. 2011Shao et al. , 2012Shao et al. , 2014Shao et al. , 2016aAn et al. 2017;Jian et al. 2020). ...
Cantharellus macrocarpus, a member of Cantharellus subgenus Cantharellus, is described as a new species from Hainan Province, China. It is characterized by large basidioma with a bright yellow-orange pileus and a well-developed, rugulose hymenophore, cream to pale yellowish stipe, noticeably thickened hyphal walls in the pileipellis, presence of clamp connections in all parts of the basidiomata, and a distribution in tropical Asia. A phylogenetic analysis of DNA sequences from part of the 28S gene and the translation elongation factor 1-a gene (TEF1) confirmed that it forms an independent lineage within subgenus Cantharellus. A detailed description, color photos of fresh basidiomata and line drawings of micromorphological features are presented.
... The original description was based on a watercolor sketching a single, very juvenile fruiting body. The latter, therefore, is hardly representative for what this species might look like when fully mature, particularly when considering the impressive variability of the general field habit repeatedly reported already for other chanterelles (Buyck et al. 2016b(Buyck et al. , 2016cDas et al. 2018b;Olariaga et al. 2015). Moreover, the original description was very succinct, both for macro-and microscopic features, and sketches a species characterized by a convex, irregularly lobed and dark violet young cap sitting on top of an ochraceous yellow, short and fleshy stipe and having a similarly colored, strongly veined-anastomosing hymenophore. ...

... The current approach of many authors to delimitation of species is based primarily or solely on DNA sequence data and sequence-based diagnoses have become almost a common practice in macromycetes (e.g. Buyck et al. 2016, Leacock et al. 2016, Taşkın et al. 2016, Wang et al. 2016, Korhonen et al. 2018. Some authors even aim to base descriptions of new species on environmental sequence data only (e.g. ...
Octospora conidiophora is described as a new species, based on collections from South Africa. It is characterised by apothecia with a distinct margin, smooth or finely warted ellipsoid ascospores, stiff, thick-walled hyaline hairs, warted mycelial hyphae and growth on pleurocarpous mosses Trichosteleum perchlorosum and Sematophyllum brachycarpum (Hypnales) on decaying wood in afromontane forests. It is the first species of bryophilous Pezizales in which an anamorph has been observed; it produces long, claviform, curved, hyaline and transversely septate conidia. Three other cryptic species of Octospora were detected using three molecular markers (LSU and SSU nrDNA and EF1α), but these could not be distinguished phenotypically. These are not described formally here and an informal species aggregate O. conidiophora agg. is established for them. The new species and finds of Lamprospora campylopodis growing on Campylopus pyriformis and Neottiella albocincta on Atrichum androgynum represent the first records of bryophilous Pezizales in South Africa. https://mycokeys.pensoft.net/article/34571/
... Amethystini, which was consequently sampled in detail for this study. Although translation elongation factor 1-alpha (TEF-1) sequences are mostly used for species delimitation in Cantharellus (Buyck and Hofstetter 2011;Buyck et al. 2016bBuyck et al. , 2017, the authors use here nuclear ribosomal DNA sequences (nucLSU and ITS) because these sequences were the only data available for the previously described Indian and Chinese species in Amethystini (Shao et al. 2011;Kumari et al. 2011Kumari et al. , 2013. ...
... The latter species was here interpreted in the wide sense (sensu lato) as the two specimens were collected in different countries and no ITS sequence could be obtained for one collection. Field habit has repeatedly been shown to Mycol Progress be very variable in chanterelles (Olariaga et al. 2015;Buyck et al. 2016b), and this apparently also applies to section Amethystini as demonstrated here by two unusually small specimens of C. lewisii collected recently in the Big Thicket National Preserve in Texas, USA, in their typical habitat (bottomland hardwood forest). Indeed, our phylogeny ( Fig. 1) includes now newly obtained sequences for these two collections ). ...
In this contribution on the genus Cantharellus in Asia, C. subvaginatus is described from the Republic of Korea as a close relative to the Chinese C. vaginatus, which is here reported for the first time from India. Both species are here placed in Cantharellus subg. Cantharellus sect. Amethystini, together with the Indian C. pseudoformosus (syn.: C. umbonatus) and the Malayan C. subamethysteus. As such, Asia has suddenly become the continent with the highest diversity for Amethystini. Species delimitation in sect. Amethystini is molecularly supported by a combined phylogenetic analysis of rDNA sequences obtained for LSU and ITS and additionally suggests the existence of a still undescribed species in North America. Character variability is discussed for all known members of Amethystini, including atypical specimens of the North American C. lewisii that are morphologically more reminiscent of the South Korean C. subvaginatus.
... The two former features are considered amongst the most taxonomically informative at subgeneric level and the latter used to distinguish species Buyck 2001, Buyck et al. 2014). Additionally, it has been hypothesized that there are cryptic species still undefined taxonomically, even amongst the best known Cantharellus species, especially from tropical regions but also from temperate regions (Smith and Morse 1947, Corner 1966, Heinemann 1958, Smith 1968, Petersen and Ryvarden 1971, Petersen 1976, Bigelow 1978, Petersen and Mueller 1992, Eyssartier et al. 2003, De Kesel et al. 2011, Tian et al. 2012, Wartchow et al. 2012, Buyck and Randrianjohany 2013, Foltz et al. 2013, 2016a, c, Leacock et al. 2016. ...
... Taxonomic research on Cantharellus has increased substantially in the last decade, especially by combining DNA and morphological information to support the definition of early recognised species and others recently discovered , Tibuhwa et al. 2012, Wilson et al. 2012, 2015, 2016a, 2016b, Foltz et al. 2013, Shao et al. 2014, Shao et al. 2016, Leacock et al. 2016. ...
During explorations of tropical oak forests in central Veracruz (eastern Mexico), the authors discovered a Cantharellus species that produces basidiomes with strikingly violet pileus and a hymenium with yellow, raised gill-like folds. It is harvested locally and valued as a prized edible wild mushroom. Systematic multiyear sampling of basidiomes allowed the recording of the morphological variation exhibited by fresh fruit bodies in different growth stages, which supports the recognition of this Cantharellus species from others in the genus. Two molecular phylogenetic analyses based on a set of sequences of species of all major clades in Cantharellus , one including sequences of the transcription elongation factor 1-alpha (tef-1α) and a combined tef-1α and nLSU region (the large subunit of the ribosome), confirm the isolated position of the new species in a clade close to C.lewisii from USA, in the subgenus Cantharellus. Detailed macroscopic and microscopic descriptions, accompanied by illustrations and a taxonomic discussion are presented.
... In addition, two endemic, fleshy, yellow, and ridged hymenium Cantharellus species, possibly belonging to the subgenus Cantharellus, have been described from China (Shao, Buyck, Tian, Liu, & Geng, 2016aTian, Buyck, Shao, Pei-Gui Liu, & Fang, 2012): Cantharellus yunnanensis W.F. Chiu (Chiu, 1973) and Cantharellus tuberculosporus M. Zang (Zang, 1980). However, C. cibarius s.s. and its closely related species cannot be distinguished from one another based on morphological features alone (Arora & Dunham, 2009;Buyck et al., 2016b;Dunham et al., 2003a, b;Feibelman, Bennett, & Cibula, 1996, 1994Olariaga et al., 2015Olariaga et al., , 2016. ...
The Japanese golden chanterelle commonly identified as Cantharellus cibarius was sampled in a broad range of forest vegetation. A total of 90 fresh and 11 herbarium specimens were examined microscopically, subjected to sequencing analysis of their nuclear ribosomal RNA (rDNA) and tef-1 genes, and their characteristics were compared with those of European C. cibarius. Based on morphological and ecological characteristics, basidioma samples from Japan were divided into four species. While specimens of Cantharellus sp. 4 from Hokkaido Island were included in the European C. cibarius clade phylogenetically, the other three species formed three unique clades. Among these, Cantharellus anzutake sp. nov. is sister to the clade of C. cibarius and was widely sampled from the northern limit of Honshu Island to the southern limit of Kumejima Island in Ryukyu Islands. Although C. anzutake was morphologically similar to C. cibarius, the two species were phylogenetically distinct. Other morphologically similar but genetically distinct chanterelle species from India exhibited macroscopic and microscopic differences compared with C. anzutake.
... Habitat: Scattered to gregarious on the ground in forests of (Shao et al. 2011;Buyck 2014;Buyck et al. 2016b). Central African C. cibarioides and C. sublaevis, and Madagascan C. sebosus belong to Cantharellus subgenus Rubrinus Eyssart. ...
Cantharellus hainanensis (Cantharellaceae, Cantharellales), a member of Cantharellus subgenus Cantharellus, is described as a new species from Hainan Island, a tropical region of China. It is morphologically characterized by a small-sized basidioma, a yellow pileal surface without an orange tinge, a smooth to faintly veined hymenophore, smaller basidiospores, and its association with the Lithocarpus in tropical China. The phylogenetic analysis of DNA sequences from the translation elongation factor 1-α gene (TEF1) also confirms that it forms an independent lineage within the subgenus Cantharellus. A detailed description, color photos of fresh basidiomata and line-drawings of microstructures are presented.
