description | Species of the genus <i>Russula</i> are key components of ectomycorrhizal ecosystems worldwide, some of which are famous edible fungi. Although many new species have been described in China, their diversity in North China is still poorly known. Based on the morphology observation of specimens and molecular phylogenetic analyses, combined with the current classification frame of <i>Russula</i>, six new species of <i>Russula</i> subgenus <i>Russula</i> are proposed from the Yanshan Mountains in northern Beijing and northern Hebei Province of China in this study: viz. <i>Russula miyunensis</i> (subsection <i>Chamaeleontinae</i>), <i>R</i>. <i>plana</i> (subsection <i>Chamaeleontinae</i>), <i>R. sinoparva</i> (subsection <i>Puellarinae</i>), <i>R. sinorobusta</i> (subsection <i>Puellarinae</i>), <i>R. subversatilis</i> (subsection <i>Roseinae</i>), and <i>R. yanshanensis</i> (subsection <i>Puellarinae</i>). This is the first report of the species of <i>Russula</i> subgenus <i>Russula</i> from the Yanshan Mountains. This study enriches the species diversity of <i>Russula</i> in North China and provides new data support for the systematic study of <i>Russula</i> in subsequent research, including research and development on edibility. |
