Specimen examined. PERU. Ancash: Carhuaz, Shilla, Huascaran N.P., Punta Olímpica, route AN-107, km 40,500, 4325 m, 9º07′57.8”S, 77º31′45.0”W, 21 Apr 2013, branches of a shrub, Lado 23025b (MA-Fungi 95193) .

Notes. The Peruvian specimen presents a cup-shaped sporotheca and a very short stalk but larger spore diameters (11–12.5 µm) than the 7–9.5 µm reported in the description of Ing (1999). The spore size is similar to L. craterioides ; however, in this species, the spore wall is paler and thinner on one side, while the thickness is uniform in the Peruvian specimen.
