Two novel boletes, Gyroporus binkatensis and Cyanoboletus sulcatipes , are described from District Swat, Pakistan, based on detailed macro‐ and micromorphological observations and phylogenetic analysis derived from Oxford Nanopore sequencing. G. binkatensis is characterized by an orbicular, dull reddish‐brown pileus with upturned and rimose margin, an eccentric tapering stipe, a hymenophore that remains white upon bruising, an...

Cortinarius squamibrunneus sp. nov. was collected from Swat District, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan. The species is distinguished from its closely related species, C . epipurrus , by its pale orangish‐brown to brown, fibrillose–squamulose pileus with a darker central disc and a rimose to radially cracked margin, smaller basidiospores (5.5–7.4 × 3.6–5 μm) with finely ornamented warts and variably shaped sterile cells. Comparativ...

Hymenopellis sphaeropeduculata is reported as a new species from different regions of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan based on morphology and molecular data from the ITS and LSU regions of the nuclear ribosomal DNA. The new species differs from the morphologically close species H. ahmadii by the presence of sphaeropedunculate elements in the pileipellis, comparatively smaller (4.6 × 13.5 μm) basidiospores and the presence of poly...
