Abstract

The specimens were gathered in the Agror Valley of District Mansehra, Pakistan, during the period from July to September 2019. Phyllactinia desmodii is reported here for the first time from Pakistan. This study contributes significant input to fungal taxonomy through the integration of detailed morphological approaches. A comprehensive morphological description along with illustrations is provided. This species represents a new record and an addition to the mycobiota based on morphological evidence. The present study enhances our understanding of fungal diversity through a detailed examination of morphological characteristics.
