Description
Summary:Examination of specimens held in three Brazilian herbariums (UFRN, URM, ICN) for the genus Rhizopogon revealed that one collection represented Alpova cf. austroalnicola, a first record of the genus for Brazil. Rhizopogon angustisepta from South Brazil represents a new record for the Western Hemisphere; R. verii is a new record for Southeast and Northeast Brazil; R. nigrescens is tentatively reconfirmed from South Brazil, based on a poorly preserved specimen; and R. marchii is identified from a specimen with confused label information that does not indicate the country of origin.
