Abstract:
Hyphodontia septocystidiata and Hyphodontia sinensis are reported as new to science. Hyphodontia septocystidiata has grandinioid to odontioid hymenophore, encrusted cystidia, septocystidia and capitate cystidia and broadly ellipsoid to subglobose thick-walled basidiospores. Hyphodontia sinensis has odontioid hymenophore, leptocystidia and capitate cystidioles and broadly ellipsoid, thin- to slightly thick-walled basidiospores. Descriptions and line drawings are provided for these two new species.
