Abstract

Wood- inhabiting fungi are a cosmopolitan group and they have a rich diversity on the basis of growing on boreal, temperate, subtropical, and tropical vegetations. Three wood-inhabiting fungal species, Xylodon grandineus, X. punctus, and X. wenshanensis spp. nov., were collected from southern China, here proposed as new taxa based on a combination of morphological features and molecular evidence. Xylodon grandineus is characterized by the coriaceous basidiomata with grandinioid hymenial surface and ellipsoid basidiospores; X. punctus is characterized by the membranous hymenophore and smooth hymenial surface with speckled distribution, cystidia absent; and X. wenshanensis is characterized by its grandinioid with cream to slightly buff hymenial surface and cystidia of two types. Sequences of ITS and nLSU rRNA markers of the studied samples were generated, and phylogenetic analyses were performed with maximum likelihood, maximum parsimony, and Bayesian inference methods. The ITS+nLSU analysis of the order Hymenochaetales indicated that at the generic level, after a series of phylogenetic studies, six genera, viz. Fasciodontia, Hastodontia, Hyphodontia, Lyomyces, Kneiffiella and Xylodon were eventually accepted to accommodate the members of Hyphodontia sensu lato; based on further analysis of ITS dataset, X. grandineus was a sister to X. nesporii; X. punctus formed a monophyletic lineage and then grouped with X. filicinus, X. hastifer, X. hyphodontinus and X. tropicus; while X. wenshanensis was retrieved as a sister to X. xinpingensis.
