Abstract

Recent studies have reported only Lentinula boryana and L. guarapiensis from the American continent, the latter known only from its type specimen. We report at least three extant species. Two widely distributed species, L. boryana and L. raphanica comb. nov., are discussed in this paper, and a new species is being described elsewhere. The geographic ranges of both species apparently overlap throughout tropical and subtropical America except for the Gulf Coast region of the United States, from which only L. raphanica can be reported. Lentinula boryana and L. raphanica differ in basidiome micromorphology, especially cheilocystidial form, spore dimensions, sexual compatibility profiles, and ITS sequences.
