description | Three species of Tuberales have been found in Southern Africa. Terfezia pfeilii Henn. occurs in the Kalahari Desert and adjacent areas of the Cape Province, Botswana and South-West Africa. The other two, Terfezia austroafricana sp. nov. and Choiromyces echinulatus sp. nov., are known only from the Cape. C. echinulatus is the first representative of that genus to be collected in Africa or the Southern Hemisphere. |
