Popis: On the basis of morphological and molecular analysis of several specimens of Lysurus periphragmoides collected in Argentina, the examination of materials collected in the type locality of Simblum sphaerocephalum (nowadays known as L. periphragmoides), also collected in Argentina (Córdoba), and the examination of specimens of L. periphragmoides from the old world, we conclude that Argentinean and South American material identified and synonymized to L. periphragmoides by Dring in 1980 should be emended as L. sphaerocephalum. As this species lacks type material designated on its protologue, and there is no type material either, we propose a lectotype and an epitype for L. sphaerocephalum. On the basis of species descriptions found in literature, we constructed a table with relevant differences between these two species: L. periphragmoides and L. sphaerocephalum. We fully describe L. sphaerocephalum, including lecto- and epitypes, and its position within the Lysuraceae clade. This work also includes descriptions and images of Blumenavia rhacodes, Itajahya galericulata, L. cruciatus, and Phallus indusiatus from Argentina, with the aim of expanding our knowledge of their distribution ranges in the studied regions.
