Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Basidiolichens are rare and understudied in India due to their confinement to specialized niches. Sulzbacheromyces yunnanensis D.Liu, Li S.Wang & Goffinet, a clavarioid basidiolichen is described herein for its expanded distribution from Mizoram, India based on morpho-anatomical characteristics and ITS sequence based phylogenetic analysis. A detailed account of the habitat preference and comparison with related taxa is also provided.
