Hidden in the daylight: A polyphasic approach reveals two bioluminescent Mycenaceae species from Yunnan Province, China (Basidiomycota, Agaricales)

In this paper, we report on two bioluminescent mushrooms of Mycenaceae collected in Yunnan Province, China. Morphological and phylogenetic analyses revealed <i>Mycena semivestipes</i>, which was first observed with bioluminescence and <i>Roridomyces pruinosoviscidus</i>, which has not been previously recorded in China. Additionally, we provide descriptions, illustrations, phylogenetic analysis results and photographs that highlight the bioluminescent features of these taxa. This study enhances our understanding of bioluminescent mushroom diversity in the Yunnan Province, raising the total number of bioluminescent mushrooms reported from China to 36.
