Cabalodontia lincangense (J. H. Dong & C. L. Zhao) Westphalen & Regio comb. nov. Basionym. Steccherinum lincangense J. H. Dong & C. L. Zhao, Mycosphere 15 (1): 1252. 2024. Notes. Cabalodontia lincangense was originally described based on a phylogeny that did not adequately represent Cabalodontia and other Steccherinaceae lineages, resulting in its placement in Steccherinum. In our analysis, the species nests within Cabalodontia, sharing morphological features such as an odontioid hymenophore, a monomitic hyphal system with clamped hyphae, and skeletocystidia tapering toward the apex. It is closely related to C. albofulva but can be differentiated by more widely spaced and longer aculei (2–4 per mm, 1–1.5 mm long) and shorter basidiospores measuring (3.5 –) 3.8–4.2 (– 4.5) × (2.3 –) 2.5–2.8 µm (Dong et al. 2024).
