Hymenogaster latisporus was distinguished from other species of the genus by the subglobose, broad ellipsoidal, ovoid basidiospores (average = 13.7 \u03bcm \u00d7 11.6 \u03bcm) with sparse verrucose and ridge-like ornamentation (1\u20131.2 \u03bcm high); H. minisporus by the ellipsoidal to broadly ellipsoidal and small basidiospores (average = 11.7 \u03bcm \u00d7 9.5 \u03bcm); H. papilliformis was characterized by the whitish to cream-colored basidiomes, and broadly fusiform to citriform basidiospores with a pronounced apex (2\u20133 \u03bcm, occasionally up to 4 \u03bcm high), papillary, distinct warts and ridges, and pronounced appendix (2\u20133 \u03bcm long); H. perisporius by the dirty white to pale yellow basidiomes, broad ellipsoidal to ellipsoidal, and yellow-brown to dark-brown basidiospores with warts and gelatinous perisporium; H. variabilis by the peridium with significant changes in thickness (167\u2013351 \u03bcm), and broad ellipsoidal to subglobose basidiospores ornamented with sparse warts and ridges. An ITS\/LSU-based phylogenetic analysis supported the erection of the five new species.
