In southern Punjab, Pakistan, the genus Entoloma remains poorly explored. Four collections of the genus Entoloma were collected during the mycological surveys from 2020 to 2022, in different areas of southern Punjab, Pakistan. Morpho-anatomical and molecular phylogenetic analyses based on ITS and combined ITS-28S sequences revealed that these four collections belong to the genus Entoloma Rusticoides group including a new species named E. khalidii and a new record for Pakistan, named E. phaeocarpum. The new species is characterized by a hemispherical to convex pileus with dark brown depressed center, slightly smaller isodiametric basidiospores, the presence of clavate to utriform cheilocystidia, and pileipellis hyphae with rounded ends. These findings underscore the importance of morphological, microscopical, and molecular approaches in fungal taxonomy and contribute to unveiling the fungal diversity in underexplored regions. The discovery of these species emphasizes the significance of continued exploration and conservation efforts to preserve myco-diversity in southern Punjab, Pakistan. Colored photographs of fresh basidiomata and habitats, illustrations of key anatomical characters, detailed descriptions, phylogenetic trees, and comparisons with closely related species are also provided.
... The taxa are divided into two clades based on the shape of basidiospores. The members with basidiospores angular in all faces are placed in Entoloma clade; while those with basidiospores angular only in polar view that have ornamentations in the form of longitudinal ridges or dominantly dispersed bumps are placed in Rhodocybe-Clitopilus clade (Pegler 1977;Horak 1980Horak , 2008Noordeloos 1984;Singer 1986;Manimohan et al. 1995Manimohan et al. , 2006Baroni & Halling 2000;Gates & Noordeloos 2007;Co-David et al. 2009;Henkel et al. 2010; Baroni & Matheny 2011;Noordeloos & Gates 2012;He et al. 2013;Kluting et al. 2014;Morozova et al. 2014;Karstedt & Capelari 2015Noordeloos et al. 2018;Karstedt et al. 2019;Brandrud et al. 2020;Sulzbacher et al. 2020;Dima et al. 2021;Noordeloos et al. 2021). ...

Entoloma is one of the largest genera of Agaricales in terms of species diversity and is widespread throughout the world. In the present study, four new species, namely Entoloma brunneofibrillosum, E. humidiphilum, E. ochraceodiscum, and E. colchicum, are introduced as new to science. These species are described based on specimens collected in Cyprus, Georgia, Hungary, Italy, Russia, Spain, and Türkiye, including morphological characteristics and phylogenetic analyses of the nuclear ribosomal DNA internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequences. Entoloma brunneofibrillosum is recognized by its brown to dark brown pileus with conspicuous dark, radial fibrils, a pale brown stipe with glistening fibrils, and usually fusiform to broadly clavate cheilocystidia. It belongs to the /Undulatosporum clade. Entoloma humidiphilum (subg. Alboleptonia) is close to E. niveum from New Zealand but differs by a completely pruinose or minutely squamulose pileus surface, narrowly cylindrical to cylindrical pileipellis elements with a deep median constriction, and by occurring in riparian habitats. Entoloma ochraceodiscum is characterized by funnel-shaped basidiomata with a deeply depressed yellowish-brown pileus and belongs to the section Griseorubida. Entoloma colchicum (subg. Nolanea) is similar to E. ortonii but differs by its distinctive radially fibrillose or velutinous pileus and the absence of odour. The new species are presented with photographs, line drawings, and comparisons with similar taxa.

Fungi play vital roles in ecosystems as endophytes, pathogens and saprobes. The current estimate of fungal diversity is highly uncertain, ranging from 1.5 to 12 million, but only around 150,000 species have been named and classified to date. Since the introduction of DNA based methods for species identification, the number of newly described taxa has increased from approximately 1000 to around 2000 yearly. This demonstrates the importance of DNA based methods to identify and distinguish species, especially cryptic species. Many novel species from recent studies have been found in historically understudied regions and habitats, but these still represent only a small percentage of the estimated species. In this paper, we examine 16 genera from the top 40 most speciose genera as listed in Species Fungorum as case studies to examine the diversity of taxa in each genus. The genera treated herein are Cercospora, Diaporthe, Meliola, Passalora, Phyllachora, Phyllosticta, Pseudocercospora, Ramularia (ascomycetes) and Cortinarius, Entoloma, Inocybe, Marasmius, Psathyrella, Puccinia, Russula, Uromyces (basidiomycetes). We critically evaluate the number of species in these genera and correlate these numbers with the number of entries in GenBank. We introduce 18 new species Apiospora multiloculata, Candolleomyces thailandensis, Cortinarius acutoproximus, Cortinarius melleoalbus, Cortinarius pacificus, Cortinarius parvoacetosus, Diaporthe guizhouensis, Entoloma pseudosubcorvinum, Inocybe meirensongia, Marasmius albulus, Marasmius obscuroaurantiacus, Meliola camporesii, Phyllachora siamensis, Phyllosticta doitungensis, Picipes yuxiensis, Pseudocercospora vignae, Puccinia maureanui and Russula inornata. We also introduce a new record of Candolleomyces cladii-marisci and Inocybe iringolkavensis. We discuss the genera Colletotrichum and Pleurotus that are speciose, but do not occur in the top 40. We hypothesize whether there might be more species in these genera and discuss why these genera have some of the largest number of species.
... Species of the genus Entoloma sensu lato (Entolomataceae, Agaricales, Basidiomycota) are found throughout a wide geographic range, from the arctic to the tropical regions ( Largent, 1994;Manimohan et al., 1995Manimohan et al., , 2006Noordeloos, 2004;Gates and Noordeloos, 2007;Noordeloos and Hausknecht, 2007;Co-David et al., 2009;Karstedt and Capelari, 2013). More than 1500 species from this genus have been described ( Morozova andNoordeloos, 2010, He et al., 2012), most of which are saprobic, whilst some are mycorrhizal ( Co-David et al., 2009). ...

A new agaric species, Entoloma mengsongense, is described and illustrated from samples collected in Mengsong, Yunnan Province, China. Microscopic observations were carried out to describe the micro- and macromorphological characteristics of specimens, and molecular identification was performed to verify the novelty of the species. The species is mainly recognized by its conical to plano-concave pileus, with yellowish brown fibril and 4–8 × 4–6 µm sized, cuboid–quadrate basidiospores. Molecular phylogenetic analysis using ITS sequence data also indicated that this is a new species closely related to E. virescens and E. hochstetteri. Morphological and molecular phylogenetic differences separate E. mengsongense from all other known species of Entoloma.

A literature-based checklist of Entolomataceae species (Agaricales, Basidiomycota) occurring in Central and South Americas is provided. In total, 271 species belonging to 13 genera are reported, representing roughly 18% of the known taxa worldwide. Here, Brazil (107 spp.) and Argentina (80 spp.) were the most representative countries. This list does not reflect the real diversity of Entolomataceae in Neotropics but covers only our limited and inconclusive knowledge. Introduction Entolomataceae Kotl. & Pouzar (Agaricales, Basidiomycota) is a very rich family which includes more than 1,500 species distributed worldwide and occurring in almost every kinds of vegetation and soil (Noordeloos 1987, Co-David 2009, Noordeloos & Gates 2012). Most of its members are saprophytic, but few ectomycorrhizal species are known (Antibus et al. 1981, Noordeloos 1984, Agerer & Waller 1993). This family has been subject of several taxonomic studies around the world, mainly: Africa (Eyssartier et al. are noteworthy. Despite of these contributions, some of the Entolomataceae species occurring in these continents are recorded on Agaricales or macrofungi regional monographs or checklists, most with limited availability. The aim of this work is provide a complete literature-based checklist of the Entolomataceae species recorded to Central and South America, evidencing the current panorama of taxonomic knowledge of these fungi.

... The genus Entoloma s.l. is very species-rich and morphologically diverse. It contains more than 1 500 species and occurs worldwide from arctic to tropical habitats (e.g., Largent 1977, 1994, Romagnesi & Gilles 1979, Horak 1980, 2008, Noordeloos 1988, 1992, 2004, 2008, Gates & Noordeloos 2007, Noordeloos & Hausknecht 2007, Vila & Caballero, 2007, 2009, Noordeloos & Gates 2009, 2012, Morozova et al. 2012). Recent molecularly based phylogenetic studies have revealed that the genus is monophyletic and sister to the Clitopilus/Rhodocybe clade (Moncalvo et al. 2002, Matheny et al. 2006, Co-David et al. 2009, Baroni & Matheny 2011). ...

This study reveals the concordance, or lack thereof, between morphological and phylogenetic species concepts within Entoloma subg. Leptonia in boreal-temperate Eurasia, combining a critical morphological examination with a multigene phylogeny based on nrITS, nrLSU and mtSSU sequences. A total of 16 taxa was investigated. Emended concepts of subg. Leptonia and sect. Leptonia as well as the new sect. Dichroi are presented. Two species (Entoloma percoelestinum and E. sublaevisporum) and one variety (E. tjallingiorum var. laricinum) are described as new to science. On the basis of the morphological and phylogenetical evidence E. alnetorum is reduced to a variety of E. tjallingiorum, and E. venustum is considered a variety of E. callichroum. Accordingly, the new combinations E. tjallingiorum var. alnetorum and E. callichroum var. venustum are proposed. Entoloma lepidissimum var. pauciangulatum is now treated as a synonym of E. chytrophilum. Neotypes for E. dichroum, E. euchroum and E. lampropus are designated
