Dear Charlie
I am the author of the species Pseudobaeospora euganea from Italy and of a worldwide key of this genus (http://www.ameronlus.it/chiavi_micologia...) in english.
I am preparing a worldwide molecular study of the species of this genus. Would be pleased to send me your material and I will study it and sequence it and let you know what it can be and, eventually, collaborate with you if it should result to be a new species?
Best regards
