Abstract
During mushroom surveys (2017 to 2022) of moist temperate forests of Pakistan, five different collections of Hydnum were found. Morpho-anatomical and phylogenetic analysis of the internal transcribed spacer (nrITS) of these specimens revealed one species new to science (Hydnum khanspurense sp. nov.) and one new record for Pakistan (Hydnum berkeleyanum). Hydnum khanspurense sp. nov. is characterized by non-decurrent spines, relatively smaller basidiospores and basidia with 1–4 sterigmata, along with ITS region divergence from the closest related species of subgenus Pallida, H. pallidomarginatum and H. flabellatum. Similarly, H. berkeleyanum, a member of subgenus Hydnum, was confirmed for the first time in Pakistan on the basis of micro-morphological and phylogenetic analysis. Detailed phylogenetic analysis confirming their systematic positions and morpho-anatomical studies of these taxa are provided and illustrated.
期刊介绍:
Phytotaxa is a peer-reviewed, international journal for rapid publication of high quality papers on any aspect of systematic and taxonomic botany, with a preference for large taxonomic works such as monographs, floras, revisions and evolutionary studies and descriptions of new taxa. Phytotaxa covers all groups covered by the International Code of Nomenclature foralgae, fungi, and plants ICNafp (fungi, lichens, algae, diatoms, mosses, liverworts, hornworts, and vascular plants), both living and fossil. Phytotaxa was founded in 2009 as botanical sister journal to Zootaxa. It has a large editorial board, who are running this journal on a voluntary basis, and it is published by Magnolia Press (Auckland , New Zealand). It is also indexed by SCIE, JCR and Biosis.
All types of taxonomic, floristic and phytogeographic papers are considered, including theoretical papers and methodology, systematics and phylogeny, monographs, revisions and reviews, catalogues, biographies and bibliographies, history of botanical explorations, identification guides, floras, analyses of characters, phylogenetic studies and phytogeography, descriptions of taxa, typification and nomenclatural papers. Monographs and other long manuscripts (of 60 printed pages or more) can be published as books, which will receive an ISBN number as well as being part of the Phytotaxa series.
