Abstract

Anomoloma is a cosmopolitan white rot fungal genus, and it currently contains four species worldwide. In the present study, the species diversity of Anomoloma in China is investigated based on morphological characters, and relationships among the species are assessed with phylogenetic analysis based on the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions and the large subunit nuclear ribosomal RNA gene (nLSU) sequences. Two new species, A. luteoalba and A. submyceliosum, are described and illustrated as well as compared with related taxa from other regions of Asia, North America and Europe. Phylogenetic analysis showed that A. luteoalba and A. submyceliosum are clearly distinct species within Anomoloma. A key to all species in this genus is provided.
