A Nomenclatural Study of Armillaria and Armillariella Species
A Nomenclatural Study of Armillaria and Armillariella species (Basidiomycotina, Tricholomataceae) by Thomas J. Volk & Harold H. Burdsall, Jr. Synopsis Fungorum 8 Fungiflora - Oslo - Norway A Nomenclatural Study of Armillaria and Armillariella species (Basidiomycotina, Tricholomataceae) by Thomas J. Volk & Harold H. Burdsall, Jr. Printed in Eko-trykk A/S, Førde, Norway Printing date: 1. August 1995 ISBN 82-90724-14-4 ISSN 0802-4966 A Nomenclatural Study of Armillaria and Armillariella species (Basidiomycotina, Tricholomataceae) by Thomas J. Volk & Harold H. Burdsall, Jr. Synopsis Fungorum 8 Fungiflora - Oslo - Norway 6 Authors address: Center for Forest Mycology Research Forest Products Laboratory United States Department of Agriculture Forest Service One Gifford Pinchot Dr. Madison, WI 53705 USA ABSTRACT Once a taxonomic refugium for nearly any white-spored agaric with an annulus and attached gills, the concept of the genus Armillaria has been clarified with the neotypification of Armillaria mellea (Vahl:Fr.) Kummer and its acceptance as type species of Armillaria (Fr.:Fr.) Staude. Due to recognition of different type species over the years and an extremely variable generic concept, at least 274 species and varieties have been placed in Armillaria (or in Armillariella Karst., its obligate synonym). Only about forty species belong in the genus Armillaria sensu stricto, while the rest can be placed in forty-three other modem genera. This study is based on original descriptions in the literature, as well as studies of type specimens and generic and species concepts by other authors. This publication consists of an alphabetical listing of all epithets used in Armillaria or Armillariella, with their basionyms, currently accepted names, and other obligate and facultative synonyms.

Accepted 11 November, 2011 A new genus of Agaricales, Leucocalocybe was erected for a species Tricholoma mongolicum in this study. Leucocalocybe was distinguished from the other genera by a unique combination of macro- and micro-morphological characters, including a tricholomatoid habit, thick and short stem, minutely spiny spores and white spore print. The assignment of the new genus was supported by phylogenetic analyses based on the LSU sequences. The results of molecular analyses demonstrated that the species was clustered in tricholomatoid clade, which formed a distinct lineage. Key words: Agaricales, taxonomy, Tricholoma, tricholomatoid clade. INTRODUCTION The genus Tricholoma (Fr.) Staude is typified by having were re-described. Based on morphological and mole- distinctly emarginate-sinuate lamellae, white or very pale cular analyses, T. mongolicum appears to be aberrant cream spore print, producing smooth thin-walled within Tricholoma and un-subsumable into any of the basidiospores, lacking clamp connections, cheilocystidia extant genera. Accordingly, we proposed to erect a new and pleurocystidia (Singer, 1986). Most species of this genus, Leucocalocybe, to circumscribe the unique genus form obligate ectomycorrhizal associations with combination of features characterizing this fungus and a forest trees, only a few species in the subgenus necessary new combination.

Ectomycorrhizal Communities Associated with a Pinus Radiata Plantation in the North Island, New Zealand
ECTOMYCORRHIZAL COMMUNITIES ASSOCIATED WITH A PINUS RADIATA PLANTATION IN THE NORTH ISLAND, NEW ZEALAND A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy at Lincoln University by Katrin Walbert Bioprotection and Ecology Division Lincoln University, Canterbury New Zealand 2008 Abstract of a thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy ECTOMYCORRHIZAL COMMUNITIES ASSOCIATED WITH A PINUS RADIATA PLANTATION IN THE NORTH ISLAND, NEW ZEALAND by Katrin Walbert Aboveground and belowground ectomycorrhizal (ECM) communities associated with different age classes of the exotic plantation species Pinus radiata were investigated over the course of two years in the North Island of New Zealand. ECM species were identified with a combined approach of morphological and molecular (restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) and DNA sequencing) analysis. ECM species richness and diversity of a nursery in Rotorua, and stands of different ages (1, 2, 8, 15 and 26 yrs of age at time of final assessment) in Kaingaroa Forest, were assessed above- and belowground; furthermore, the correlation between the above- and belowground ECM communities was assessed. It was found that the overall and stand specific species richness and diversity of ECM fungi associated with the exotic host tree in New Zealand were low compared to similar forests in the Northern Hemisphere but similar to other exotic plantations in the Southern Hemisphere. Over the course of this study, 18 ECM species were observed aboveground and 19 ECM species belowground. With the aid of molecular analysis the identities of Laccaria proxima and Inocybe sindonia were clarified.

Georgios I. Zervakis Mycodiversity in Greece
Georgios I. Zervakis Mycodiversity in Greece Abstract Zervakis, G. I.: Mycodiversity in Greece. - Bocconea 13: 119-124.2001. - ISSN 1120-4060. Research on fungal biodiversity and conservation has been fragmentary and inadequate in Greece. Large gaps exist in our knowledge, despite the ecologica I importance and value of this region. The geographic position, the variety of landscapes and climatic conditions, the distinct topography and geology combined to create a multitude of habitats for living organisms. As concerns fungi in particular, the large number of host plants, many ofwhich are endemie, pro vides an additional clue for the alleged existence of a particularly rich mycoflora. Based on scarce and rather ancient literature data, the number of funga I species is about 2,500. In con trast, relatively recent, but stili limited, interest in macromycetes contributed at establishing an estimate of935 species, ofwhich 815 be long to Basidiomycota and 120 to larger Ascomycota. However, these figures represent only a small fraction of the existing mycodiversity as it is also evidenced from relevant detailed studies in other European countries, and from the rate of recording new species for Greece. The need for intensifying this type ofwork and producing an inventory of the fungal biota is here emphasized. The acquisition and evaluation of new data, first in selected representative ecosystems, could eventually contribute at accomplishing the goal of mapping the Greek mycoflora. Of great priority is also the issue of conservation, and protection of sites which are rich in macrofungi, but nowadays they are rapidly deteriorating. Introduction 2 Greece covers an area of 132,000 km , is situated in the southemmost part ofthe Balkan peninsula, and belongs to the Mediterranean zone ofthe Palearctic biogeographical region.

Pigments of Higher Fungi: a Review
Czech J. Food Sci. Vol. 29, 2011, No. 2: 87–102 Pigments of Higher Fungi: A Review Jan VELÍŠEK and Karel CEJPEK Department of Food Chemistry and Analysis, Faculty of Food and Biochemical Technology, Institute of Chemical Technology in Prague, Prague, Czech Republic Abstract Velíšek J., Cejpek K. (2011): Pigments of higher fungi – a review. Czech J. Food Sci., 29: 87–102. This review surveys the literature dealing with the structure of pigments produced by fungi of the phylum Basidiomycota and also covers their significant colourless precursors that are arranged according to their biochemical origin to the shikimate, polyketide and terpenoid derived compounds. The main groups of pigments and their leucoforms include simple benzoquinones, terphenylquinones, pulvinic acids, and derived products, anthraquinones, terpenoid quinones, benzotropolones, compounds of fatty acid origin and nitrogen-containing pigments (betalains and other alkaloids). Out of three orders proposed, the concern is only focused on the orders Agaricales and Boletales and the taxonomic groups (incertae sedis) Cantharellales, Hymenochaetales, Polyporales, Russulales, and Telephorales that cover most of the so called higher fungi often referred to as mushrooms. Included are only the European species that have generated scientific interest due to their attractive colours, taxonomic importance and distinct biological activity. Keywords: higher fungi; Basidiomycota; mushroom pigments; mushroom colour; pigment precursors Mushrooms inspired the cuisines of many cul- carotenoids and other terpenoids are widespread tures (notably Chinese, Japanese and European) only in some species of higher fungi. Many of the for centuries and many species were used in folk pigments of higher fungi are quinones or similar medicine for thousands of years.

C. Ciccarone, M. Pasqualetti, S. Tempesta & A. Rambelli An annotated list of macrofungi from Gargano areas (S-Italy) Abstract Ciccarone, C., Pasqualetti, M., Tempesta, S. & Rambelli, A.: An annotated list of macrofungi from Gargano areas (S-Italy). — Fl. Medit. 15: 621-668. 2005. — ISSN 1120-4052 The authors report a survey on the macrofungi from Gargano areas. 279 taxa (29 Ascomycetes and 250 Basidiomycetes) are here reported. The most representative genera are Amanita, Lactarius and Cortinarius. Introduction In the present work we list the fungal species found in the areas of the different Gargano environments. Samples were collected through a surveying net according to the Forest Rangers Guard and to a Mycological association placed in Vico del Gargano. The list lies surely far from completeness, in fact, more different and notorious species, otherwise, surely present in the same area (beyond many others, Boletus satanas Lenz, Stropharia aeruginosa (Curtis: Fr.) Quél. or Battarrea phalloides (Dicks.: Pers.) Pers. eluded all our temptatives). Neverthless we believe that the level of biodiversity richness and the interest of many of the reperta here produced through the real work of collectors, represents a valid proposal for further study on this subject. Gargano is, in fact, a widely open environment where anthropization produces a continuous crossed ebb and flow of species introduction and species extinction so that a static picture of the fungal biodiversi- ty can be hardly traced. Moreover, an important contribution is given to the nomenclatural updating of the taxa which are often locally known by local expressions or obsolete binomial combinations. Anyway this study is part of much bigger one regarding the whole garganic eumycotal world and represents a new temptative of discover in this scarcely deepened subject.

Spain With 1 figure and 3 tables Ortega, A., J. Lorite & F. Valle (2010): Mycorrhizal macrofungi diversity (Agaricomycetes) from Mediterranean Quercus forests; a compilation for the Iberian Peninsula (Spain and Portugal). - Nova Hedwigia 91: 1–31. Abstract: A compilation study has been made of the mycorrhizal Agaricomycetes from several sclerophyllous and deciduous Mediterranean Quercus woodlands from Iberian Peninsula. Firstly, we selected eight Mediterranean taxa of the genus Quercus, which were well sampled in terms of macrofungi. Afterwards, we performed a database containing a large amount of data about mycorrhizal biota of Quercus. We have defined and/or used a series of indexes (occurrence, affinity, proportionality, heterogeneity, similarity, and taxonomic diversity) in order to establish the differences between the mycorrhizal biota of the selected woodlands. The 605 taxa compiled here represent an important amount of the total mycorrhizal diversity from all the vegetation types of the studied area, estimated at 1,500–1,600 taxa, with Q. ilex subsp. ballota (416 taxa) and Q. suber (411) being the richest. We also analysed their quantitative and qualitative mycorrhizal flora and their relative richness in different ways: woodland types, substrates and species composition. The results highlight the large amount of mycorrhizal macrofungi species occurring in these mediterranean Quercus woodlands, the data are comparable with other woodland types, thought to be the richest forest types in the world.
