Abstract

The taxonomic and phylogenetic affiliation of Hypochnicium specimens from New Zealand were studied using morphological and molecular analyses. Phylogenetic analyses based on ITS region of rDNA confirm that species within Hypochnicium form a monophyletic group. The synonymy of Gyrophanopsis with Hypochnicium is therefore validated and the genus Nodotia is re-evaluated as a synonym of Hypochnicium. Sequence analyses of H. zealandicum and a specimen within the Hypochnicium punctulatum complex from New Zealand place both on well-supported clades as sister taxa of H. polonense and H. cremicolor respectively. Although spore dimensions overlap with those of H. polonense, H. zealandicum is currently retained as a separate species on the basis of geographical separation and phylogenetic analysis. New Zealand specimens recorded as H. punctulatum represent a new species, which is described and illustrated as H. aotearoae here.
