Abstract

---

Inocybe swatensis sp. nov., is described here based on ITS and LSU sequence data and comparison of its micro- and macromorphological characters with other closely related species. The taxon is characterized by distinctive bicolored, light to dull orangish-brown basidiomata, thick-walled cheilo- and pleurocystidia, small basidia, and angular basidiospores within the Inocybe grammata group. This species occurs as a highly-supported lineage based on phylogenetic analyses of ITS and LSU data. This is the first report of Inocybe section Albodiscae from Asia.
