Abstract The recently revised Geastrum minimum species complex in sect. subsect. Quadrifida revealed that the name G. is a nomen ambiguum and dubium was collectively used for at least two European (viz. granulosum marginatum ). During morphological revision of Hungarian materials labelled as , different crystal structures were found on endoperidial body some specimens than those characteristic ...
