Additions to our knowledge of the genus Albatrellus (Basidiomycota) in China

Albatrellus specimens from China were Studied systematically. Nineteen species were identified, including three species new to science. The three now species are described and illustrated. Albatrellus fumosus has fasciculate basidiomes, grayish brown pileus, simple-septate hyphae and small amyloid basidiospores. Albatrellus microcarpus is characterized by single basidiome, pale yellowish white, squamulous pileus, simple-septate hyphae and small amyloid basidiospores. Albatrellus tibetanus is distinguished from other Albatrellus species by its caespitose basidiomes, white to cream pileus with dense deep brown squamules, simple-septate hyphae and small amyloid basidiospores. A key to the Albatrellus species known from China is also given.
