Trametes    is a globally distributed genus of white-rot polypores and well sampled in temperate and boreal areas. However, the diversity, taxonomy, and phylogenetic positions of    Trametes    spp. are poorly known in tropical Africa. This study aims at documenting the diversity of    Trametes    species in Benin (tropical Africa) and their phylogenetic positions with a focus on the    T.   elegans    species complex. Therefore, we collected specimens of    Trametes    from different forest types across Benin. To infer phylogenetic relationships between    Trametes    species, we investigated sequences of five gene regions and added available sequences from GenBank. Using Maximum likelihood and Bayesian phylogeny inference methods, we found eight supported species clades. For the    T.   elegans    species complex, we re-establish the name    Trametes   palisotii    for species previously known as    T.   elegans    in tropical Africa. Furthermore, we propose    Trametes   parvispora    as a species new to science and provide the description of this species. Our molecular phylogeny of    Trametes    with a focus on tropical Benin contributes to taxonomic clarity of an important wood-decay fungal genus, which is the basis for biodiversity assessments of    Trametes    in the tropics.
