Oliveira, sp. nov. is very similar to M. haematocephalus (blood red pileus) but has more pale yellowish orange pileus (reddish when young) and slightly longer basidiospores (xmm = 21.1 [± 0.7] × 3.8 [± 0.3] µm, Qmm = 5.7 [± 0.5] vs xmm = 20.4 [± 0.3] × 3.9 [± 0.1] µm, Qmm = 5.3 [± 0.1]). Yet, the ranges of the basidiospores sizes are largely overlapping. Marasmius auranticapitatus J.S. Oliveira, sp. nov. is 0.2-1 % dissimilar to M. haematocephalus based on the nrITS and 0.6-1 % dissimilar on the nrLSU.However, M. auranticapitatus J.S. Oliveira, sp. nov. is closer and sister to M. rubicundus (Singer) J.S. Oliveira, stat. nov. (Figs4; 5). Based on the nrITS data, M. auranticapitatus J.S. Oliveira, sp. nov. is 0.7-1.7% dissimilar to M. rubicundus (Singer) J.S. Oliveira, stat. nov., 0.2-0.6 % dissimilar in the nrLSU, 4.7-5.2% dissimilar in the rpb 2 and 1.4-1.9 dissimilar in the ef 1 - α. Marasmius auranticapitatus J.S. Oliveira, sp. nov. differs from M. rubicundus (Singer) J.S. Oliveira, stat. nov. in the pale yellowish orange pileus (vs rose, pink or pale red) and longer basidiospores (xmm = 21.1 [± 0.7] × 3.8 [± 0.3] µm, Qmm = 5.7 [± 0.5] vs xmm = 18.9 [± 0.5] × 3.8 [± 0.1] µm, Qmm = 5 [± 0.2]). With a transitional/ intermediate pattern and possibly a hydrid, the exceptional spore sizes of JO226 (more compatible with M. rubicundus (Singer) J.S. Oliveira, stat. nov.) strengthens the plausibility of the most recent common ancestry between M. auranticapitatus J.S. Oliveira, sp. nov. and M. rubicundus (Singer) J.S. Oliveira, stat. nov., a bridge of intercompatibility and gene flow or an ancestry trace. QuotingTaylor et al. (2000): “Even when BSR (Biological Species Recognition) can be applied to fungi, there is evidence that the criterion of reproduction lumps together groups of fungi that are genetically isolated in nature, but that retain the ancestral character of interbreeding”. Marasmius auranticapitatus J.S. Oliveira, sp. nov. is similar to M. siccus in the pileus pigmentation. However, based on the holotype, M. siccus has smaller basidiospores 15.2- 20 × 3.2-4.6 µm (Desjardin 1989). Also, M. siccus s.l. has more robust basidiomata (Gilliam 1976; Noordeloos 1987; Antonín & Noordeloos 2010; Antonín et al. 2012;) and temperate distribution. In the phylogenetic trees (Fig. 1), M. auranticapitatus J.S. Oliveira, sp. nov. is close to M. haematocephalus (embedded in haemat_cp1) and distant from M. siccus. Marasmius auranticapitatus J.S. Oliveira, sp. nov. is part of the haemat_cp2a (Fig. 3), only fully resolved in Figure 5. Marasmius haematocephalus var. anomaloides Desjardin originally described from the Tennessee, United States, also has orange pileus but differs from M. auranticapitatus J.S. Oliveira, sp. nov. in having much shorter basidiospores (14.4-19.2 × 3.4-4.6µm) (Desjardin 1991). The new species is neighter similar to any of the varieties of M. haematocephalus in Singer (1976) nor to any of the heterotypic sysnonyms once listed under M. haematocephalus (Appendix).
