dct:abstract

<jats:p> Molecular phylogenies in the past decade have demonstrated that the described diversity of <jats:italic>Cortinarius</jats:italic> is still underestimated, especially outside continental and boreal ecoregions where the genus has been historically investigated. We tackled this issue by revisiting the so far unresolved subgenus <jats:italic>Leprocybe</jats:italic>, and focused on the largely unexplored Mediterranean hotspot of biodiversity. The sequencing and phylogenetic analysis of 161 vouchered collections from Austria, Cyprus, France, Germany, Italy and Spain, including 16 types, allowed for the delineation of 11 species in this lineage, three of them recognised as new to science and formally introduced as <jats:italic>C. jimenezianus</jats:italic>, <jats:italic>C. selinolens</jats:italic> and <jats:italic>C. viridans</jats:italic> spp. nov., respectively. Interestingly, the newly described species exhibit a strict Mediterranean distribution, and one of them is putatively endemic to the island of Cyprus, highlighting the remarkable potential of this neglected ecoregion to uncover further undescribed diversity of <jats:italic>Cortinarius</jats:italic> in the future. The present work also unveils 23 synonymies in this subgenus, as well as previously undetected crypticism within <jats:italic>C. venetus</jats:italic>. Next Generation Sequencing carried out on three old and contaminated holotypes, successfully decrypts their phylogenetic identity, including that of <jats:italic>C. leproleptopus</jats:italic>, finally settling the long-standing controversy over the taxonomic status of this species. A brief overview of each species in the subgenus is lastly provided and a key is proposed to facilitate the identification of presently known European taxa of <jats:italic>Leprocybe</jats:italic> in the field. </jats:p>
