Abstract

Albatrellus roseus sp. nov. is described from Swat, Pakistan, based on morphological and molecular data. Morphological descriptions and illustration for the new species and comparison with closely allied species are provided. Phylogenetic analyses based on nuclear ribosomal DNA (nuc-rDNA) internal transcribed spacer (ITS1-5.8S-ITS2) and 28S loci are studied. This study represent the first record of the genus Albatrellus from Pakistan.
