TL;DR: This study provides a first broad systematic treatment of the euagarics as they have recently emerged in phylogenetic systematics and recognizes eight major groups of homobasidiomycetes that cut across traditional lines of classification, in agreement with other recent phylogenetic studies.
734 citations
TL;DR: The circumscription of the family Agaricaceae, its genera and their characters are investigated, and the monovelangiocarpic Chamaemyces fracidus appears to be basal to the family and provides clues to the morphology of the ancestral AgARicaceae.

TL;DR: The position and composition of Macrolepiota within the Agaricaceae and its phylogenetic relationships with other members of the family were investigated, using both molecular (ITS and LSU rDNA sequences) and morphological characters.
Abstract: The position and composition of Macro- lepiota within the Agaricaceae and its phylogenetic relationships with other members of the family were investigated, using both molecular (ITS and LSU rDNA sequences) and morphological characters. The molecular data separate the genus into two clades. The first clade comprises M. procera, M. mastoidea, M. clelandii and allies and is a sister group of Leucoa- garicus and Leucocoprinus. The second, more diverse, clade, with M. rachodes and allies, M. globosa, Chlo- rophyllum molybdites, Leucoagaricus hortensis and En- doptychum agaricoides, is a sister group of Agaricus. The separation of the two clades is supported by mor- phological characters, such as the structure of the pileus covering, the stipitipellis and the shape of the germ pore and the spore apex. The two clades are regarded as genera for which the names Macrolepiota and Chlorophyllum are proposed. Macrolepiota nym- pharum does not belong to either clade but is as- signed to the genus Leucoagaricus, close to L. leucoth- ites. Endoptychum depressum is transferred to the ge- nus Agaricus as A. inapertus.

TL;DR: A well resolved phylogeny of the Agaricaceae based on partial rpb2 sequences is presented from a wide geographic and systematic sampling of the family and compared to phylogenies based on nrLSU and tef1 sequences.
Abstract: A well resolved phylogeny of the Agaricaceae based on partial rpb2 sequences is presented from a wide geographic and systematic sampling of the family and compared to phylogenies based on nrLSU and tef1 sequences. A smaller dataset of the family focusing on the Agaricus clade of nrITS sequences and a combined dataset were used to determine the position of several white-spored taxa from northern Thailand. Two new genera are described from Thailand. Coniolepiota accommodates Lepiota spongodes, a gray-lilac-purple floccose white-spored species with a wide distribution in tropical Asia; Eriocybe has a white wooly felt-like covering of pileus and stipe, white spores and is described with one new species E. chionea, so far known only from northern Thailand. These new genera are closely related to three genera with colored spores (viz. Agaricus, Heinemannomyces and Clarkeinda) and not to other white-spored taxa.
