Amauroderma trichodermatum (ganodermataceae, basidiomycota) : first record from Bolivia and geographic distribution map, with notes on nomenclature and morphology

Abstract

Amauroderma trichodermatum is reported from Bolivia, the collection being the fourth one known worldwide. The species is unique in the genus by having a hirsute pileus and a monomitic hyphal system. The use of the epithet “trichodermatum” as a correction for the typographical error “trichodematum” is proposed. A description and illustrations are provided based on the fresh Bolivian specimen, which has been compared with the type.
