A new species of <i>Russula</i> subg. <i>Brevipes</i> (Russulaceae) from the lateritic regions of West Bengal, India
ABSTRACT A new species of Russula subg. Brevipes , growing in Sal‐dominated forests is described based on macro‐ and micromorphological and molecular evidence. It is distinguished macroscopically by small to medium‐sized and ivory to white‐coloured fruit bodies, globose to sub‐globose basidiospores, and clavate or cylindrical hymenial cystidia with a mucronate to rounded apex.
