	abstract = {<p>Rickiella edulis\&nbsp;is reported from Argentina for the rst time and is documented with photographs of fresh specimens and molecular data. Previously the species was known as\&nbsp;R. transiens\&nbsp;(=\&nbsp;Phillipsia transiens)and was reported from southern Brazil and Paraguay. Phylogenetic analyses based on SSU rDNA and LSU rDNA shows its placement in a monophyletic family, the Sarcoscyphaceae. The relationship ofRickiella,\&nbsp;Phillipsia\&nbsp;and\&nbsp;Nanoscypha\&nbsp;however could not be resolved from phylogenetic analyses of the ITS, SSU, and LSU rDNA sequences. The excipular tissue of\&nbsp;Rickiella\&nbsp;is shot through with regularly spaced channels and cavities. Because of this feature, the genus\&nbsp;Rickiella\&nbsp;is recognized as distinct from\&nbsp;Phillipsia.\&nbsp;Phillipsia\&nbsp;and\&nbsp;Nanoscypha\&nbsp;are morphologically distinct but diversity within\&nbsp;Phillipsiaremains a topic for further research. A new tribe in the Sarcoscyphaceae is proposed to accommodate the genus\&nbsp;Wynnea.</p>},
