Open full text 7 citations

Abstract

A detailed and extensively illustrated description of Lactarius chromospermus Pegler, first described from Zambia, is provided on the basis of abundant material from miombo woodland in Burundi (Central Africa). Its ectomycorrhizal association with Brachystegia is demonstrated. Microscopic features of the type material are reexamined and compared with those of the collections from Burundi. Its systematic position is discussed.
