“…Phylogenetically, Hemilanmaoa is embedded in the Pulveroboletus Group, forming a distinct lineage. Hemilanmaoa is the sister of "clade 1" (Figure 1), including Amoenoboletus G. Wu, E. Horak, & Zhu L. Yang, Pulveroboletus Murrill, and Suillellus However, Hemilanmaoa is different from Amoenoboletus in its context, and hymenophores change to blue when injured (Chen et al, 2019); Pulveroboletus differs in its pulverulent surface, distinctly marginal veil, and adnexed hymenophore (Wu et al, 2016a;Zeng et al, 2017); Suillellus can be distinguished by its usually olive pileus surface and amyloid hyphae of stipe base (Vizzini et al, 2014;Wang et al, 2022). Morphologically, Hemilanmaoa is similar to Rubroboletus Kuan Zhao & Zhu L. Yang, Neoboletus Gelardi, Simonini & Vizzini, Caloboletus Vizzini, Cyanoboletus Gelardi, Vizzini & Simonini and Lanmaoa G. Wu & Zhu L. Yang.…”
