Punjabia is a genus of fungi in the family Psathyrellaceae. The genus is monotypic and contains the single species Punjabia pakistanicus which was previously classified as Coprinellus pakistanicus.[1]
Taxonomy
The Punjabia genus was created in 2020 by the German mycologists Dieter Wächter & Andreas Melzer when the Psathyrellaceae family was subdivided based on phylogenetic analysis.[2] Several members of the Psathyrella genus were reclassified and placed in new genera. A single species was placed in Punjabia.[citation needed]
The type species, Punjabia pakistanicus was previously known as Coprinellus pakistanicus after being classified by the mycologists Muhammad Usman and Abdul Nasir Khalid in 2018 from a discovery in Pakistan.[3][4]
Etymology
The genus is named after the Pakistani province of Punjab where the type species was documented.[2]
Coprinellus pakistanicus was named for the location in which this species was discovered, Pakistan.[4]
Habitat and distribution
Found in lowlands on moist soil under Acacia trees in Northern Pakistan.[4]
