| Summary: | The phylogenetic relationship of the species of the genus <em>Auricularia</em> and its allied taxa were investigated using the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequences of nuclear DNA. A molecular phylogenetic tree constructed using a total of 17 samples representing five species and two outgroups indicate that the species of <em>Auricularia</em> form a monophyletic group. Within the genus <em>Auricularia, A. mesenterica</em> is basal and the remaining <em>Auricularia</em> species form three clades; first clade consisted of <em>A. auricula-judae</em>; the second clade of <em>A. fuscosuccinea</em>, and the third clade of <em>A. polytricha</em>. |
