abstract = {A new genus in the Cantharellaceae, Afrocantharellus, is proposed based on results from phylogenetic analyses of rDNA LSU and concatenated LSU/5.8-ITS2/ATP6 data. Comprehensive fieldwork and the acquisition of numerous sequences for previously neglected African Cantharellus species formed the basis for a reappraisal of generic and species delimitation. The genus is characterized morphologically by the basidiomata having thick, distantly spaced diverging gills of variegated colour. In contrast to most of Cantharellus, Afrocantharellus mostly lacks clamp connections. Phylogenies of Cantharellus and Afrocantharellus based on LSU and a concatenated data set are provided, along with descriptions of and a key to the species of Afrocantharellus. New combinations in Afrocantharellus are proposed.}
