Abstract
Our continuous investigation into the diversity of psathyrelloid mushrooms in Kerala State, India, has led us to discover two new species of Candolleomyces viz., C. niveosquamosus and C. rubrobrunneus. Comprehensive morphological evaluations and multigene phylogenetic analyses involving nrITS and nrLSU served as the basis for describing these two new species. Comprehensive descriptions, photographs, and a discussion with related species are provided.
