Abstract

Amanita sharmae, a new species of A. sect. vaginatae is described from India based on 2-gene phylogenetic analyses and morphological data. It is characterized by a small to medium-sized basidiomata, dark grey to olive grey pileus, broadly ellipsoid to ellipsoid basidiospores (10‒14 × 7‒10 μm), the presence of clamp connections, and its occurrence under Abies pindrow and Picea smithiana in coniferous forest.
