The author illustrates several species of Scutellinia, as well as Ramsbottomia asperior (Pyronemataceae, Pezizales), Helvella philonotis (Helvellaceae, Pezizales), and Peziza heimii (Pezizaceae, Pezizales), collected in alpine grassland and wetlands near the Col de la Moutière (2444 m a.s.l.) in the core zone of the Mercantour National Park in 2021 and 2023. The Scutellinia samples are further characterized by ITS sequencing. The consistency between molecular and morphological data is discussed, and recommendations are made for future work on Scutellinia.
