Abstract

Collections from field expeditions to the Atlantic Rain Forest and to Amazonia in Brazil, and revision of material deposited in Herbarium URM revealed the presence of Trechispora specimens that could not be assigned to any described species. Sequencing of the ribosomal nuc rDNA ITS5-5.8S-ITS4 (ITS) and nuc 28S rDNA (28S) regions confirmed that these specimens belonged to two new species, here described as T. mollis and T. torrendii. Trechispora mollis has a densely hydnoid hymenophore and is most similar to T. nivea, but differs clearly by the presence of inflated cells in the subiculum. Trechispora torrendii has a minutely grandinioid hymenophore similar to T. farinacea and morphological differences between them are subtle, but genetically these two species are well separated. The new combinations T. brasiliensis, T. mellina and Xenasmatella alnicola (= T. alnicola) are proposed, and new records from Brazilian regions and biomes are reported. Macro- and micro-descriptions, line-drawings, a key to Brazilian species of the genus and phylogenetic trees based on ITS and 28S are provided.
