Schweizerische Zeitschrift für Pilzkunde Vol. 88, No. 3, 15 June 2010 In German (some articles in French & Italian) Abstractor – Ray Tantram Rofler U; Ardüser H. (p. 90-91, 92) [also in French p. 92-93, 90] Fungus of the month (5) is Haasiella splendidissimum, a first collection for Switzerland in 1995. This species has 4-spored basidia and no clamp connections so differs from H. venustissima with its 2- spored basidia and clamps. The collection is described together with its location at the side of a new road, and close to Spruce woodland. Difficulties in identification were resolved by Moser (1983), which describes the two species in this genus. A colour plate shows this bright orange species, with decurrent gills, and line drawings illustrate the fruitbody and micro features. A bibliography is included. Mordasini E. [Original in Italian p. 93-94, 95] (In German p. 95-96, 94) Fungus of the month (6) is Melogramma spiniferum, a small Ascomycete on Beech, found for the first time in a Nature Reserve at Onsernonetal. The fungus was examined from an exsiccate of a collection from dry, undecayed Beech bark on a fallen trunk. The fungus is described. Its fruitbodies grow beneath the bark, and the stroma forms an uneven cushion. There are eight allantoid spores in the ascus. This species is closely related to Diatrypella quercina and Eutypella scoparia. Only two species in the genus Melogramma have been found in Switzerland. Reasons for this identification are discussed. Two colour plates show the fruitbody, and photomicrographs the ascus and a spore. Lit refs are included. Flammer R. (p. 97-99) [also in French p/ 100-101, 98-99] Periscope 28 discusses histoplasmosis, a fungal infection carried by bats, mice, rats, dogs, pigeons, poultry and man. Here a dimorphic fungus changes in the body from an ascomycete to a yeast, and conidial mycelia persist in the soil and excreta of e.g. bat caves, where dust containing conidia can be inhaled into the lungs.

  • The Contribution of DNA Metabarcoding
    The Contribution of DNA Metabarcoding to Fungal Conservation: Diversity Assessment, Habitat Partitioning and Mapping Red-Listed Fungi in Protected Coastal Salix repens Communities in the Netherlands Jo´ zsef Geml1,2*, Barbara Gravendeel1,2,3, Kristiaan J. van der Gaag4, Manon Neilen1, Youri Lammers1, Niels Raes1, Tatiana A. Semenova1,2, Peter de Knijff4, Machiel E. Noordeloos1 1 Naturalis Biodiversity Center, Leiden, The Netherlands, 2 Faculty of Science, Leiden University, Leiden, The Netherlands, 3 University of Applied Sciences Leiden, Leiden, The Netherlands, 4 Forensic Laboratory for DNA Research, Human Genetics, Leiden University Medical Centre, Leiden, The Netherlands Abstract Western European coastal sand dunes are highly important for nature conservation. Communities of the creeping willow (Salix repens) represent one of the most characteristic and diverse vegetation types in the dunes. We report here the results of the first kingdom-wide fungal diversity assessment in S. repens coastal dune vegetation. We carried out massively parallel pyrosequencing of ITS rDNA from soil samples taken at ten sites in an extended area of joined nature reserves located along the North Sea coast of the Netherlands, representing habitats with varying soil pH and moisture levels. Fungal communities in Salix repens beds are highly diverse and we detected 1211 non-singleton fungal 97% sequence similarity OTUs after analyzing 688,434 ITS2 rDNA sequences. Our comparison along a north-south transect indicated strong correlation between soil pH and fungal community composition. The total fungal richness and the number OTUs of most fungal taxonomic groups negatively correlated with higher soil pH, with some exceptions. With regard to ecological groups, dark-septate endophytic fungi were more diverse in acidic soils, ectomycorrhizal fungi were represented by more OTUs in calcareous sites, while detected arbuscular mycorrhizal genera fungi showed opposing trends regarding pH.

Coccinula sect. Laetinae), is described from Changbai Mountains, northeast China. The new species isdistinguish ed by its bright red glabrous pileus with a cinnamon tinged disc, slightly yellowish context, dark yellow to ocher spore print, and pileipellis with septate pileocystidia. The morphological characteristics are illustrated in detail and compared with those of similar species. Identification of R. jilinensis was supported by the molecular phylogenetic analysis based on the ribosomal DNA internal transcribed spacer regions (ITS). Key words —Russulales, taxonomy, morphology, Basidiomycota Introduction Northeast China, including Liaoning, Jilin, and Heilongjiang Provinces and the eastern part of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, covers an area of 1.236×106 km2 (39°–53°30ʹ N 115°–135°E) within the temperate to boreal continental climate zones. Plant communities range from grassland (eastern Inner Mongolia) to broadleaf forest (southern Liaoning), while the three main mountain systems (Great Hinggan, Lesser Hinggan, Changbai) are mostly covered by coniferous or mixed coniferous–broadleaf forests. The main trees in northeast China are Pinus pumila, P. koraiensis, Larix gmelinii, Betula platyphylla, Abies nephrolepis, Picea jezoensis, and Quercus mongolica (Jiang et al.

Macrofungi from Abies cephalonica forests and other intermixed tree species (Oxya Mt., central Greece) 1 2 1 D.M. DIMOU *, G.I. ZERVAKIS & E. POLEMIS * [email protected] 1Agricultural University of Athens, Lab. of General & Agricultural Microbiology, Iera Odos 75, GR-11855 Athens, Greece 2 [email protected] National Agricultural Research Foundation, Institute of Environmental Biotechnology, Lakonikis 87, GR-24100 Kalamata, Greece Abstract — In the course of a nine-year inventory in Mt. Oxya (central Greece) fir forests, a total of 358 taxa of macromycetes, belonging in 149 genera, have been recorded. Ninety eight taxa constitute new records, and five of them are first reports for the respective genera (Athelopsis, Crustoderma, Lentaria, Protodontia, Urnula). One hundred and one records for habitat/host/substrate are new for Greece, while some of these associations are reported for the first time in literature. Key words — biodiversity, macromycetes, fir, Mediterranean region, mushrooms Introduction The mycobiota of Greece was until recently poorly investigated since very few mycologists were active in the fields of fungal biodiversity, taxonomy and systematic. Until the end of ’90s, less than 1.000 species of macromycetes occurring in Greece had been reported by Greek and foreign researchers. Practically no collaboration existed between the scientific community and the rather few amateurs, who were active in this domain, and thus useful information that could be accumulated remained unexploited. Until then, published data were fragmentary in spatial, temporal and ecological terms. The authors introduced a different concept in their methodology, which was based on a long-term investigation of selected ecosystems and monitoring-inventorying of macrofungi throughout the year and for a period of usually 5-8 years.

  • MUSHROOMS of the OTTAWA NATIONAL FOREST Compiled By
    MUSHROOMS OF THE OTTAWA NATIONAL FOREST Compiled by Dana L. Richter, School of Forest Resources and Environmental Science, Michigan Technological University, Houghton, MI for Ottawa National Forest, Ironwood, MI March, 2011 Introduction There are many thousands of fungi in the Ottawa National Forest filling every possible niche imaginable. A remarkable feature of the fungi is that they are ubiquitous! The mushroom is the large spore-producing structure made by certain fungi. Only a relatively small number of all the fungi in the Ottawa forest ecosystem make mushrooms. Some are distinctive and easily identifiable, while others are cryptic and require microscopic and chemical analyses to accurately name. This is a list of some of the most common and obvious mushrooms that can be found in the Ottawa National Forest, including a few that are uncommon or relatively rare. The mushrooms considered here are within the phyla Ascomycetes – the morel and cup fungi, and Basidiomycetes – the toadstool and shelf-like fungi. There are perhaps 2000 to 3000 mushrooms in the Ottawa, and this is simply a guess, since many species have yet to be discovered or named. This number is based on lists of fungi compiled in areas such as the Huron Mountains of northern Michigan (Richter 2008) and in the state of Wisconsin (Parker 2006). The list contains 227 species from several authoritative sources and from the author’s experience teaching, studying and collecting mushrooms in the northern Great Lakes States for the past thirty years. Although comments on edibility of certain species are given, the author neither endorses nor encourages the eating of wild mushrooms except with extreme caution and with the awareness that some mushrooms may cause life-threatening illness or even death.
