Revealing Brownish Diversity in China: New Discoveries and Taxonomic Insights.

Within the genus , species exhibiting brownish basidiomata present considerable challenges in identification due to similar coloration. This study underscores the significance of pileipellis types and cheilocystidia characteristics as critical in delimiting brownish species. To clarify the principal taxonomic characters and their utility in distinguishing between brownish species, a morphological taxonomy and phylogenetic analysis were performed.
