(2009). Arizona gasteroid fungi I: Lycoperdaceae (Agaricales, Basidiomycota). Fungal Diversity 37: 153-207. Twenty-eight species in the family Lycoperdaceae, commonly called ‘puffballs’, are reported from Arizona, USA. In addition to widely distributed species, understudied species (e.g., Calvatia cf. leiospora and Holocotylon brandegeeanum) are treated. Taxonomic descriptions and illustrations, which include microscopic characters, are given for each species, and a dichotomous key is presented to facilitate identification. Basidiospore morphology was also examined ultrastructurally using scanning electron microscopy, and phylogenetic analyses were carried out on nrRNA gene sequences (ITS1, ITS2, and 5.8S) from 42 species within (or closely allied to) the Lycoperdaceae.

In present study the survey of different forests of Gorakhpur district between the years 2014 – 2016 were done to collect the macrofungi. The collected macrofungi were identified on the basis of morphological and microscopic characters. In all 20 macrofungi were collected and identified. Out of 20 macrofungi studied Abortiporus biennis, Amanita virosa, Bovista plumbea, Ganoderma lucidum, Lepista inversa and Trametes versicolor were abundant and grow gregariously during rainy season. These macrofungi were well photographed and preserved in dry as well as in wet condition for the further study. This study indicates a great variation in climatic condition of Gorakhpur which made it possible for the abundance and variability of macrofungi in this area.

  • Fungi from the Owyhee Region
    FUNGI FROM THE OWYHEE REGION OF SOUTHERN IDAHO AND EASTERN OREGON bY Marcia C. Wicklow-Howard and Julie Kaltenecker Boise State University Boise, Idaho Prepared for: Eastside Ecosystem Management Project October 1994 THE OWYHEE REGION The Owyhee Region is south of the Snake River and covers Owyhee County, Idaho, Malheur County, Oregon, and a part of northern Nevada. It extends approximately from 115” to 118” West longitude and is bounded by parallels 41” to 44”. Owyhee County includes 7,662 square miles, Malheur County has 9,861 square miles, and the part of northern Nevada which is in the Owyhee River watershed is about 2,900 square miles. The elevations in the region range from about 660 m in the Snake River Plains and adjoining Owyhee Uplands to 2522 m at Hayden Peak in the Owyhee Mountains. Where the Snake River Plain area is mostly sediment-covered basalt, the area south of the Snake River known as the Owyhee Uplands, includes rolling hills, sharply dissected by basaltic plateaus. The Owyhee Mountains have a complex geology, with steep slopes of both basalt and granite. In the northern areas of the Owyhee Mountains, the steep hills, mountains, and escarpments consist of basalt. In other areas of the mountains the steep slopes are of granitic or rhyolitic origin. The mountains are surrounded by broad expanses of sagebrush covered plateaus. The soils of the Snake River Plains are generally non-calcareous and alkaline. Most are well-drained, with common soil textures of silt loam, loam and fine sand loam. In the Uplands and Mountains, the soils are often coarse textured on the surface, while the subsoils are loamy and non-calcareous.

Methodology and Results: The mushrooms were collected at the onset to the end of the rainy season. Mushrooms at different stages of growth were handpicked; photographed at different resolutions and their microhabitats and the month in which they were found was recorded. Species identification was archived by carefully examining the attributes of the sporocarps such as colour, shape, size, texture of the cap; and presence or absence of gills, etc. T-Test and Diversity Indices were conducted on the data. Thirty-one (31) different edible mushroom species were found in the study area. They largely belong to the families of Agaricaceae, Lyophyllaceae and Polyporaceae.

  • Morpho Taxonomical and Ecological Studies of Macrofungi of Trans-Himalayan Ladakh
    MORPHO TAXONOMICAL AND ECOLOGICAL STUDIES OF MACROFUNGI OF TRANS-HIMALAYAN LADAKH Konchok Dorjey Department of Botany, EliezerJoldan Memorial College, Leh, Ladakh, India Correspondence: [email protected] ABSTRACT This paper gives an overview of the unique diversity of mushrooms in the cold desert of Ladakh. The paper further describes the fungal phenology pattern and substrate preference of macrofungiin the cold arid region of Ladakh. Ecological adaptation strategies of this group to overcome extreme high-altitude’s climatic conditions of freezing temperature, dryness and intense solar radiations are also discussed. While most of the reports on larger fungi are from tropical areas where the weather conditions are favourable, very few of them are reported from extreme inhospitable cold arid zones of the globe. This survey heretofore enlists 32 species of macro-fungi with discussion on fungal morphotaxonomy and ecological aspects including diversity, distribution, phenological patterns, substrate preferences and cold adaptive strategies, from the cold arid desert of Ladakh.

(affinity Herpotrichiellaceae), a novel black yeast from biological soil crusts in the Western United States Scott T. Bates,3 Gundlapally S. N. Reddy3 and Ferran Garcia-Pichel Correspondence School of Life Sciences, Arizona State University, Main Campus, Tempe, AZ-85287-4501, Ferran Garcia-Pichel USA [email protected] A novel black yeast-like fungus, Exophiala crusticola, is described based on two closely related isolates from biological soil crust (BSC) samples collected on the Colorado Plateau (Utah) and in the Great Basin desert (Oregon), USA. Their morphology places them in the anamorphic genus Exophiala, having affinities to the family Herpotrichiellaceae (Ascomycota). Phylogenetic analysis of their D1/D2 large subunit nuclear ribosomal RNA (LSU nrRNA) gene sequences suggests that they represent a distinct species. The closest known putative relative to Exophiala crusticola is Capronia coronata Samuels, isolated from decorticated wood in Westland County, New Zealand. The holotype for Exophiala crusticola anam. nov. is UAMH 10686 and the type strain is CP141bT (=ATCC MYA-3639T=CBS 119970T=DSM 16793T). Dark-pigmented fungi appear to constitute an important heterotrophic component of soil crusts and Exophiala crusticola represents the first description of a dematiaceous fungus isolated from BSCs. Biological soil crusts (BSCs) are formed by communities of of BSCs or the contributions that they make to crust ecology. micro-organisms that bind together the upper strata of soil Here, two black yeast-like fungal strains (CP141bT and and are common in arid lands, such as those found in the OR302-3) isolated from BSCs are described as a novel Western United States (Belnap & Gardner, 1993).
