Abstract

A look-alike of Lactifluus kigomaensis De Crop & Verbeken, described in 2012 from primary miombo woodlands in Kigoma Province in North Western Tanzania, is proposed here as L. subkigomaensis. The phylogeny based on the molecular markers ITS and rpb2 shows that L. subkigomaensis is a sister species to L. kigomaensis. Detailed descriptions of both species are given here, aiming at finding good characters to unravel these look-alikes. Both species are consumed and offered for sale on local markets
