Corresponding Editor: Volvariella gloiocephala and allies are placed in a different clade, which represents the sister Joseph W. Spatafora group of Pluteus, and a new generic name, Volvopluteus, is proposed to accommodate these taxa. Characters such as basidiospore size and pileipellis structure can be used to separate Keywords: Pluteus, Volvariella and Volvopluteus. The genus Pluteus is monophyletic and includes species Character evolution with partial veil traditionally classified in the genus Chamaeota. The evolution of morpho- Phylogeny logical features used in the infrageneric taxonomy of the genus, such as metuloid cystidia Pluteus and pileipellis structure, was analyzed. Agreement between the molecular phylogeny and Volvariella morphological subdivision of Pluteus is, generally speaking, good, though some rearrange- Volvopluteus ments are necessary: (i) species with non-metuloid pleurocystidia and pileipellis as a cutis are placed either in sect. Celluloderma, together with the species characterized by a hymeni- dermal pipeipellis, or in sect. Pluteus, with the metuloid bearing species; (ii) subdivision of sect. Celluloderma according to the presence/absence of cystidioid elements in the pileipel- lis is not supported by molecular data. ª 2010 The British Mycological Society. Published by Elsevier Ltd.
