Abstract Wood-inhabiting fungi, a remarkably diverse group morphologically, phylogenetically, and ecologically, play fundamental role in ecosystem processes, particularly wood degradation the recycling of organic matter. Recognized as pivotal contributors to intricate balance forest ecosystems, these fungi are renowned “key players” due their enzymatic prowess, effectively breaking down woody components like lignin, cellulose, hemicellulose. In present study, new wood-inhabiting fungal genus Nodulochaete, two species N. fissurata punctata, collected from southwest China, proposed based on combination morphological features molecular evidence. The Nodulochaete is characterized by resupinate basidiomata with smooth tuberculate hymenophore, dimitic hyphal system clamped generative hyphae, presence abundantly nodulose hyphidia, ellipsoid ovoid, longitudinally septate basidia, cylindrical allantoid basidiospores. Sequences internal transcribed spacers (ITS) large subunit (nrLSU) nuclear ribosomal DNA (rDNA) markers studied samples were generated. Phylogenetic analyses performed Maximum Likelihood, Parsimony Bayesian Inference methods. ITS + nrLSU RNA gene regions show that forms monophyletic lineage within order Auriculariales. Furthermore, punctata assigned Nodulochaete.

Wood-decaying fungi represent a vital group of higher that drive the cycling matter and energy in forest ecosystems, they have been focus thorough investigation. In this study, five new species, viz. Botryobasidiumdaweishanense, Inonotussubglobisporum, Kneiffiellabubalina, Xylodongranulanoides, X.granulans from China, are described illustrated based on morphological characteristics molecular phylogenetic analyses, which sequences ITS+nLSU genes were used for analyses by maximum likelihood Bayesian inference methods. The phylogeny revealed Botryobasidiumdaweishanense groups with three taxa, viz., B.intertextum, B.leptocystidiatum, B.subcoronatum. Inonotussubglobisporum is closely related to I.radiatus. Kneiffiellabubalina clustered sister K.subalutacea. Xylodongranulanoides close relationship X.bambusinus, X.fissuratus, X.subclavatus, X.montanus, X.wenshanensis. Additionally, together. characterized an araneose hymenial surface, fusiform, cyanophilous basidiospores (6.1-7.3 × 3.3-3.9 μm). perennial basidiomata lateral stipes, polygon pores measuring 4-6 per mm, subglobose, (3.6-4.3 2.8-3.5 cream cylindrical slightly allantoid (8.0-8.9 1.8-2.3 grandinioid surfaces, various cystidia, broadly ellipsoid, thick-walled (4.7-5.3 3.6-4.1 Xylodongranulans capitate clavate ellipsoid (3.8-4.2 2.9-3.3 Phylogenetic analysis internal transcribed spacer (ITS) nuclear large subunit RNA (nLSU) shows four species members Hymenochaetales, one belongs Cantharellales.

This is the third paper in series Catalogue of fungi China that aims to systematically and promptly publish Chinese fungal species. In this series, we focus on macrofungi from southern border area Xizang, a previously less concerned region. A total 15 new species six orders, 11 families, 12 genera Agaricomycetes, Basidiomycota are described. Both morphological phylogenetic analyses support identity these their taxonomic placements. addition, one combination Trechispora cryptomerioides proposed. We hope will draw more attention reporting diversity areas Xizang other special geographic regions besides aim itself.
