Abstract
A new species, Flammulina mexicana, grows on woody Senecio cinerarioides at high elevation on Mexican volcanoes. A tetrapolar mating system and other cultural features are described. Flammulina mexicana is compared to its clo sest ally, F. callistosporioides, based on type studies. Both species have hymeniform pileipelli and gelatinized subhymenia.
