Abstract:Two species of the genus Thelephora from Yunnan are reported in this paper, i. e. Thelephora vialis Schw. and T. aurantiotincta Corner. They are good edible species, known as "Gamba-jun" in Yunnan, China. Among them, T. aurantiotincta is new to China. They are common in the middle Yunnan and occur in coniferous woods or in mixed woods during midsummer and autumn. These two species are redescribed in the paper.
