Abstract
Abstract: After a revision of Kneiffiella specimens from European old-growth forests in Czech Republic, Slovakia, Croatia and Poland, Kneiffiella altaica was found to have a western distribution far from its type locality at Teletskoye lake in Altai mountains in Russia. Comparing further material from USA, we found a similar species, Kneiffiella subaltaica, which we describe as new to science based on molecular inference of the ITS and 28S DNA sequence and morphology.
