abstract = {Acervus is a small genus in Pyronemataceae. Most of the species in this genus have been recorded from China. In the present study, four collections of Acervus in Yunnan province, southwestern China were investigated using morphology and DNA sequence data. This paper provides detailed morphological descriptions of the sexual morphs of A. stipitatus sp. nov. and A. globulosus sp. nov. with morphological comparison of other closely related taxa. Multi-gene phylogenetic analyses inferred from 28S, TEF1 and RPB2 sequence data strongly supported lineages corresponding to morphological features. We also provide a summarized comparison of the major morphological characters of Acervus species.}
