Basionym: Aleurodiscus bicornis Sheng H. Wu, View in CoL Mycol. Progr. 21 (1): 150. 2022.

Notes: The species is characterized by 2-sterigmate basidia and is similar to Aleurodiscus canadensis View in CoL that, however, differs in having acanthobasidia, smaller basidiospores and a distribution in North America ( Núñez & Ryvarden 1997, Wu et al. 2022). The sample Wu 1207-90 collected from northeastern China was identified as A. canadensis View in CoL by Dai & He (2017). It formed a distinct lineage with A. bicornis View in CoL in Wu et al. (2022) but was nested within the G. bicornis View in CoL lineage with strong support values in the present study. We believe that the studied Chinese specimens represent one species, but more evidence, especially DNA sequences of A. canadensis View in CoL , is needed to resolve the relationship between G. bicornis View in CoL and A. canadensis View in CoL .
