Abstract

In this study, Candelabrochaete tenuis is described and illustrated as a novel species based on morphological characteristics and phylogenetic analyses of internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions and the large subunit (nLSU) of nuclear ribosomal RNA genes. The species is characterized by smooth, membranaceous basidiomata with a cream to slightly brown hymenial surface, and allantoid to subcylindrical basidiospores. The phylogenetic analyses based on ITS+nLSU sequences inferred that the new species is nested within the genus Candelabrochaete and is closely related to C. guangdongensis. A description, illustrations, phylogenetic analysis results and comparisons with closely related taxa of the new species are provided.
