<i>Inocybe crenata</i> sp. nov. (subsec. <i>Geophyllinae</i> , sect. <i>Tardae</i> ) from Conifer Dominated Forests of Pakistan
<i>Inocybe crenata</i> sp. nov. (subsec. <i>Geophyllinae</i>, sect. <i>Tardae</i>) has been described from conifer dominated forests of Pakistan. <i>Inocybe crenata</i> differs from other related species by having a pale-yellow pileus with crenate margins and a bumpy or cracked center, with a fibrillose stipe. Phylogenetic analysis based on nuclear ribosomal large subunit (LSU) and internal transcribed spacer (nrITS) sequence data supported the identity of <i>Inocybe crenate</i> as a distinct taxon. A detailed description of this novel species is provided.
