Hymenochaetales Phylogeny with Two New Fungal Species Described from Southwest China

Southwest China is the geographic focus for this dataset describing two new species of wood-decaying fungi in the order Hymenochaetales. It includes morphological descriptions, micrographs, and phylogenetic analyses based on ITS, nLSU, tef1-α, and rpb2 sequences. The dataset was authored by Qianquan Jiang and published on figshare in May 2026.

Use Cases

• Taxonomic classification of fungal species based on morphological descriptions and micrographs
• Phylogenetic analysis of fungal lineages based on multi-locus sequence data (ITS, nLSU, tef1-α, rpb2)
• Comparative morphology between newly described species and their closely related taxa

Strengths

• Includes detailed morphological descriptions and micrographs for two new species
• Provides multi-locus phylogenetic analyses based on four distinct genetic sequences

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
