Multilineage sequencing provides a suitable epitype, barcode sequences and precise systematic position for the enigmatic African Cantharellus miniatescens.

Cryptogamie Mycologie, 37, (3), 2016, 269-282.

Cantharellus miniatescens is lectotypified. An epitype sequenced for four gene regions (LSU, mitSSU, RPB2 and Tef1-alpha) is selected among recent collections from Cameroon and Central African Republic and fully described and illustrated. Complete ITS sequences have been deposited as barcodes. The systematic position is determined using a multigene phylogenetic analysis which places this species in Cantharellus subg. Pseudocantharellus in agreement with its morphological features.
