Abstract

Pseudocolus fusiformis is the first representative of the genus to be recorded from Turkey. The species is characterized by basidiocarps with three apical arms that are distally fused and inner surfaces covered by a dark greenish mucoid gleba. A short description and macro- and microphotographs are provided.
