Ruua coralieae Tedersoo sp. nov.

Diagnosis.

Separation from other species of Ruua based on the ITS region (positions 217–243 gaaaaaaaaagaaaggaaagaaaaggt; one mismatch allowed) and LSU (positions 470–489 tagtgcacttgctttcgcac; no mismatch allowed) as indicated in Fig. 15 View Figure 15 .

Type.

eDNA sample TUE 101598 (holotype); eDNA sequence EUK 1603424 ; GSMc plot G 4464, Quercus robur forest (soil sample TUE 101598 ) in Ruu , Estonia, 59.45059 ° N, 25.22166 ° E GoogleMaps .

Description.

Other sequences: EUK 1602853 and EUK 1600135 (type locality); EUK 1604050 (GSMc plot G 5002, Tilia - Quercus forest soil in Naissaar, Estonia, 59.57530 ° N, 24.53590 ° E); and EUK 1604051 (GSMc plot S 480, Populus - Picea forest soil in Käru, Estonia, 58.80407 ° N, 25.22249 ° E).

Etymology.

Ruu (Estonian) refers to type locality; and Coralie (French) refers to the first name of Coralie Damon, who collected the first materials belonging to this genus.
