Arctoa (2013) 22: 151-158

 

An integrative taxonomy approach based on analyses of morphological, ecological, geographical and nucleotide sequences (ITS1-2 nrDNA, trnL-F and trnG-intron cpDNA) data allowed determining Anastrophyllum ellipticum Inoue, a species found in the Altai Mts. (South Siberia) and new for Russia. Detail description and illustrations are provided, its morphological differences from related A. lignicola D.B. Schill & D.G. Long are discussed.
