Melanogaster coccolobae sp. nov. (Paxillaceae, Boletales), a tropical hypogeous fungus from the urban areas of Quintana Roo, Mexico

The genus Melanogaster is characterized by its hypogeous to semi hypogeous habit, brownish basidiomata, gel-filled gleba locules, and globose to ellipsoid basidiospores. The genus is distributed in temperate zones, but sequences from Coccoloba root tips and a few basidiome collections have revealed its presence in the tropics. The aim of this article is to describe a new species of Melanogaster based on ecological, molecular, and morphological data.
