Keywords Bulgarian mycota, conservation value, Forebalkan, fungal diversity, macrofungi, Vasilyovska Mountain, wood-decaying. Publication date: August 16, 2014 Abstract This study was performed based on specimens of macrofungi collected on field trips to the region between 2007 and 2011. The aim of this study was to determinate the wood-decaying macrofungi of Vasilyovska mountain, to enrich the information about fungal diversity in the Forebalkan floristic region, and make contribution to Bulgarian mycota. The information upon species composition and distribution of wood-decaying macrofungi in the Vasilyovska mountain were published for the first time including the second records of Armillaria ostoyae, Pholiota lucifera and Xeromphalina cauticinalis in the country. A list of 110 species belonging to Pezizomycota and Agaricomycota has been compiled which 75 species were reported for the first time from Forebalkan. Four species includes in the Red List of fungi in Bulgaria: Fomitopsis rosea (Alb. & Schwein. : Fr.) P. Karst., Hericium coralloides (Scop. : Fr.) Pers., H. erinaceus (Bull. : Fr.) Pers., and Lenzites warnieri Durieu & Mont. * Corresponding Author: Maria Lacheva [email protected] 37 Lacheva Introduction Тhe macrofungi of Mt Vasilyovska are seldom The Vasilyovska mountain is situated in Northern recognized. Because of the ecological properties Bulgaria, Central Forebalkan (Bondev, 2002). It of the mountain and data scarcity, especially in falls within the temperate-continental climatic respect of wood-decaying species, it was decided region (Velev, 2002). According to the physical to carry out a detailed study to determine the and geographical characteristics, the mountain is occurrence and distribution of these organisms in situated within the Stara Planina (Balkan) region the Mt Vasilyovska. The aim of this study was to (Georgiev, 1985; Yordanova et al., 2002). The determinate the wood-decaying macrofungi of Mt highest point in the mountain is peak Vasilyov Vasilyovska and make contribution to Bulgarian (1490 m). Composition of plant communities mycota as a whole. consists of woody, shrubbery and herbaceous species.

  • Phylogenetic Classification of Trametes
    TAXON 60 (6) • December 2011: 1567–1583 Justo & Hibbett • Phylogenetic classification of Trametes SYSTEMATICS AND PHYLOGENY Phylogenetic classification of Trametes (Basidiomycota, Polyporales) based on a five-marker dataset Alfredo Justo & David S. Hibbett Clark University, Biology Department, 950 Main St., Worcester, Massachusetts 01610, U.S.A. Author for correspondence: Alfredo Justo, [email protected] Abstract: The phylogeny of Trametes and related genera was studied using molecular data from ribosomal markers (nLSU, ITS) and protein-coding genes (RPB1, RPB2, TEF1-alpha) and consequences for the taxonomy and nomenclature of this group were considered. Separate datasets with rDNA data only, single datasets for each of the protein-coding genes, and a combined five-marker dataset were analyzed. Molecular analyses recover a strongly supported trametoid clade that includes most of Trametes species (including the type T. suaveolens, the T. versicolor group, and mainly tropical species such as T. maxima and T. cubensis) together with species of Lenzites and Pycnoporus and Coriolopsis polyzona. Our data confirm the positions of Trametes cervina (= Trametopsis cervina) in the phlebioid clade and of Trametes trogii (= Coriolopsis trogii) outside the trametoid clade, closely related to Coriolopsis gallica. The genus Coriolopsis, as currently defined, is polyphyletic, with the type species as part of the trametoid clade and at least two additional lineages occurring in the core polyporoid clade. In view of these results the use of a single generic name (Trametes) for the trametoid clade is considered to be the best taxonomic and nomenclatural option as the morphological concept of Trametes would remain almost unchanged, few new nomenclatural combinations would be necessary, and the classification of additional species (i.e., not yet described and/or sampled for mo- lecular data) in Trametes based on morphological characters alone will still be possible.

  • Annex REPORT for 2019 UNDER the “HEALTH CARE” PRIORITY of the NATIONAL ROMA INTEGRATION STRATEGY of the REPUBLIC of BULGAR
    Annex REPORT FOR 2019 UNDER THE “HEALTH CARE” PRIORITY of the NATIONAL ROMA INTEGRATION STRATEGY OF THE REPUBLIC OF BULGARIA 2012 - 2020 Operational objective: A national monitoring progress report has been prepared for implementation of Measure 1.1.2. “Performing obstetric and gynaecological examinations with mobile offices in settlements with compact Roma population”. During the period 01.07—20.11.2019, a total of 2,261 prophylactic medical examinations were carried out with the four mobile gynaecological offices to uninsured persons of Roma origin and to persons with difficult access to medical facilities, as 951 women were diagnosed with diseases. The implementation of the activity for each Regional Health Inspectorate is in accordance with an order of the Minister of Health to carry out not less than 500 examinations with each mobile gynaecological office. Financial resources of BGN 12,500 were allocated for each mobile unit, totalling BGN 50,000 for the four units. During the reporting period, the mobile gynecological offices were divided into four areas: Varna (the city of Varna, the village of Kamenar, the town of Ignatievo, the village of Staro Oryahovo, the village of Sindel, the village of Dubravino, the town of Provadia, the town of Devnya, the town of Suvorovo, the village of Chernevo, the town of Valchi Dol); Silistra (Tutrakan Municipality– the town of Tutrakan, the village of Tsar Samuel, the village of Nova Cherna, the village of Staro Selo, the village of Belitsa, the village of Preslavtsi, the village of Tarnovtsi,

Pune, Maharashtra (India) *Corresponding author A B S T R A C T K e y w o r d s During field and literature surveys, a rich mycobiota was observed in the vegetation of India. The heavy rainfall and high humidity favours the growth of Fungi; Aphyllophoraceous fungi. The present work materially adds to our knowledge of Aphyllophorales; Poroid and Non-Poroid Aphyllophorales from all over India. A total of more than Basidiomycetes; 190 genera of 52 families and total 1175 species of from poroid and non-poroid semi-evergreen Aphyllophorales fungi were reported from Indian literature till 2012.The checklist gives the total count of aphyllophoraceous fungal diversity from India which is also forest.. a valued addition for comparing aphyllophoraceous diversity in the world. Introduction Aphyllophorales order was proposed by in culture are recognized by Stalper. Rea, after Patouillard, for Basidiomycetes (Stalper,1978). having macroscopic basidiocarps in which the hymenophore is flattened Much of the literature of the order is based (Thelephoraceae), club-like on the traditional family groupings and as (Clavariaceae), tooth-like (Hydnaceae) or under the current re-arrangements, one has the hymenium lining tubes family may exhibit several different types (Polyporaceae) or some times on lamellae, of hymenophore (e.g. Gomphaceae has the poroid or lamellate hymenophores effuse, clavarioid, hydnoid and being tough and not fleshy as in the cantharelloid hymenophores).
