Abstract

Amanita saproalba A. Kumar & Y.P. Sharma sp. nova (Amanitaceae) is described from Jammu and Kashmir, India, based on molecular (nrLSU) and morphological evidence. It belongs to Amanita subg. Lepidella sect. Lepidella stirps Vittadinii, and is closely related to A. orientisororia from China, from which it differs by its appendiculate pileus margins, larger basidiomata, small to moderately coarse, subfibrillose pyramidal warts on the pileus, and a stipe covered with coaxially arranged, recurved squamules that bruise brownish. An identification key to the species of A. sect. Lepidella known from India is provided.
