tox is not able to recognize python versions installed by pyvenv

I am trying to learn how to use tox for python unit testing on multiple python installations. I have used pyenv to install multiple python installations to the /home/username/.pyenv/versions/version_number/bin/python, where version_number could be 3.9.16, or 3.10.9. I have added the following lines to my pyproject.toml file. I have a simple test directory structure that looks like

hello
|_ pyproject.toml
|_ hello
|   |_ __init__.py
|   |_ main.py
|_tests
|   |_ __init__.py
    |_ test_main.py

Among other lines in my pyproject.toml file I have the following tox config lines

[tool.pytest.ini_options]
testpaths = ["tests"]
console_output_style = "progress"

[tool.tox]
legacy_tox_ini = """
    [tox]
    env_list = py39, py310, mypy

    [testenv]
    deps = 
        pytest

    [testenv:py39]
    basepython = /home/jonwebb/.pyenv/versions/3.9.16/bin/python 

    [testenv:py310]
    basepython = /home/jonwebb/.pyenv/versions/3.10.9/bin/python

    [testenv:mypy]
    deps = mypy
    commands = mypy hello
"""

When I try to run tox from the uppermost hello directory I get an error stating;

py39: failed with env name py39 conflicting with base python /home/username/.pyenv/version/3.9.16/bin/python
py310: failed with env name py310 conflicting with base python /home/username/.pyenv/versions/3.10.9/bin/python

It appears that tox is having problems with my python installations created with pyenv. How can I fix this installation so it recognizes my python installations installed with pyenv? It is probably worth noting that this code implementation is using a local .venv folder created with poetry.

You need to remove the basepython directives from your tox.ini.
