Typification.

China. Yunnan Province • Diqing, Weixi County, Weideng, Songpo , GPS coordinates: 27°05′N, 99°13′E, altitude: 1400 m asl., on the fallen angiosperm branch, leg. C. L., 13 November 2023, CLZhao 34516 ( SWFC!) GoogleMaps .

Etymology.

Biluoxueshanensis (Lat.) refers to the locality (Biluoxueshan) of the holotype specimen.

Basidiomata.

Annual, resupinate, closely adnate, coriaceous, without odor or taste when fresh, up to 8 cm long, 2 cm wide, and 700 μm thick. Hymenophore grandinioid, cream (4 A 2 / 3) to buff (4 A 4) when fresh, buff (4 A 4) to cinnamon-buff (4 / 5 B 4) upon drying. Sterile margin narrow, white (60) to cream (4 A 2 / 3), up to 1 mm.

Hyphal system.

Dimitic; generative hyphae simple-septate, colorless, thin-walled, smooth, rarely branched, interwoven, 3–4 µm in diameter; skeletal hyphae distinctly thick-walled, smooth, unbranched, interwoven, IKI –, CB –, 3–4 µm in diameter; tissues unchanged in KOH.

Hymenium.

Cystidia subclavate, flexuous, colorless, thin-walled, smooth, 40–45.5 × 6–9.5 µm. Basidia narrowly ovoid to ellipsoid, longitudinally septate, four-celled, 21–29 × 11.5–15 µm; basidioles numerous, in shape similar to basidia but smaller. Hyphidia arising from generative hyphae, nodulose, branched, colorless, thin-walled, 58–72.5 × 2.5–4 µm in diameter.

Spores.

Basidiospores allantoid, colorless, thin-walled, smooth, usually with one or more oil drops, IKI –, CB –, (12 –) 13.5–17.5 (– 18) × (6.5 –) 7–9 (– 9.5) µm, L = 15.57 µm, W = 7.99 µm, Q = 1.95–2.06 (n = 60 / 2).
