Abstract

Previous studies have shown that boletes are abundant and diverse in China, especially in tropical and subtropical regions. In the present study, morphological, ecological, host relationship, and a four-locus (28S, , , and ) molecular phylogenetic analyses were used to study the family in subtropical and tropical China. Four new bluing species are described from three genera, viz. (Chinese name), (Chinese name), (Chinese name), and (Chinese name). Moreover, the genus is treated as a synonym of , and a new combination, namely (Chinese name), is proposed.
