Morganella arenicola, a new species record from North and Northeast Brazil

Morganella arenicola Alfredo & Baseia sp. nov. from Brazilian forests is proposed as a new species based on its morphological features. A comparative analysis of several collections of Morganella compacta (G.Cunn.) Kreisel & Dring, including the holotype, is added. Detailed description, taxonomical remarks, and illustrations with photographs and scanning electron microscopy of the basidiospores are given.
