Specimens of Clavulinopsis(Clavariaceae, Agaricales) collected in China were studied using morphological and molecular methods. Six species—C.aspersa,C.bicolor,C.bispora,C.erubescens,C.incarnata, andC.tropicalis—are described as new to science, andC.trigonosporais a newly recorded species in China. Phylogenetic analysis was conducted based on a combined dataset of internal transcribed spacer and nuclear ribosomal RNA large subunit sequences. The phylogenetic reconstruction revealed that the six new species each formed an independent lineage, and the samples ofC.trigonosporafrom China were nested with accessions ofC.trigonosporacollected from Italy. The morphology of the seven Chinese species is described in detail, and is illustrated with line drawings and photographs. A key to the knownClavulinopsisspecies in China is provided.
