Two novel acervus species extend their distribution within Yunnan, China

© 2016 Magnolia Press. Acervus is a small genus in Pyronemataceae. Most of the species in this genus have been recorded from China. In the present study, two species of Acervus from Yunnan Province, in southwestern China, were investigated by using morphology and DNA sequence data. This paper introd...
