Morphotaxonomy and molecular phylogeny unveil one new species and two new records of <i>Phlegmacium</i> (Cortinariaceae) from India
A macrofungal exploration to two different states of India (Uttarakhand and Sikkim) have revealed interesting agarics species belonging to the genus Phlegmacium (Cortinariaceae). Phlegmacium didnaense is proposed here as a new species whereas, P. ophiopus and P. largum are reported for the first time from India. All three taxa are morphologically described and with molecular phylogenetic estimations.
