Conocybe commonly occur as saprobes, are distributed in tropical, subtropical, and temperate zones worldwide. In the present study, two new species in Conocybe section Conocybe, viz. Conocybe qujingensis and Conocybe qujinguniversitatis, are proposed based on morphological investigations and phylogenetic analyses. Molecular analyses based on sequence data from the nuclear ribosomal ITS loci support the taxonomic position of the two new species in the genus Conocybe. We also provide illustrations, line drawings, comparisons with closely related taxa, and descriptions of the new taxa. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
