Summary:Two new species in subgenus , and s, are proposed based on a combination of morphological and molecular evidence. has distinct olive tinged basidiomata, a squamulose pileus, and small, subglobose to broadly ellipsoid basidiospores, the ITS sequence differs from that of by at least 28 substitutions and independent positions. has a squamulose pileus and subglobose to broadly ellipsoid coarsely verrucose basidiospores, the ITS sequence has at least 11 substitutions and index position deviations from the other members of the section. Both new species were found in mixed forests of southwest China.
