Galzinia

Galzinia Bourdot Galzinia is a small genus of corticiod fungi typified with G. pedicellata Bourdot. The genus currently comprises nine species (Biodin and Gills 1990, Index fungorum 2016), but the boundaries of the genus is not well-defined and its taxonomy needs to be revised. In our Galzinia type studies (unpublished), we noticed that several [...]
