Resumen:
Abstract: A new species, Geastrum episcopale, is described from Argentina. Detailed
descriptions and illustrations of fresh and dry basidiomata are provided along with
photographs of microscopic elements, such as spores, capillitium, calcium oxalate
crystals, and exo- and endoperidium surfaces. This fungus is typical of the genus in its
morphology and ecology but clearly differs from every known species. This species can
be distinguished easily by the red-violet (to magenta) exoperidium and the lilac
endoperidium. Specimens were collected on wet soil composed of a superficial layer of
ca. 5 cm leaf litter and 15 cm of particulate and melanized lignocellulosic material (pH
6.5) under Eugenia uruguayensis and Nectandra sp.
Key words: Gasteromycetes, Geastraceae, Geastrum, Phallomycetidae
