Wrong type species and wrong authors

edit

The article says that the authors of Neoboletus are G.Wu & Zhu L.Yang (2015) and that the type species is Neoboletus extremiorientalis (Lar.N.Vassiljeva) G.Wu & Zhu L.Yang (2015). This is competely wrong! The authors of Neoboletus are Gelardi, Simonini & Vizzini 2014, and the holotype is Boletus luridiformis Rostk. 1844. (see Nomenclatural novelties, Index Fungorum 192.). In "Four new genera of the fungal family Boletaceae" Krombholzia extremiorientalis is made the type of the new genus Rugiboletus (which is also correctly said on that page), not Neoboletus. And Wu, Yang et al. also expessivly say "Neoboletus Gelardi et al., Index Fungorum 192: 1 (2014)" and "Type species: Neoboletus luridiformis (Rostk.) Gelardi et al." Also check the Index Fungorum record forNeoboletus:

Neoboletus Gelardi, Simonini & Vizzini, Index Fungorum 192: 1 (2014)
Typification Details:
Neoboletus luridiformis (Rostk.) Gelardi, Simonini & Vizzini 2014
