Nowe Stanowiska Kolcówki Jabłoniowej Sarcodontia Crocea I Dwóch Innych, Rzadko Notowanych Gatunków Grzybów Nadrzewnych Występujących Na Jabłoniach Malus Sp
Przegląd Przyrodniczy XXIII, 4 (2012): 68–76 Grzegorz Neubauer, Andrzej Szczepkowski NOWE STANOWISKA KOLCÓWKI JABŁONIOWEJ SARCODONTIA CROCEA I DWÓCH INNYCH, RZADKO NOTOWANYCH GATUNKÓW GRZYBÓW NADRZEWNYCH WYSTĘPUJĄCYCH NA JABŁONIACH MALUS SP. W POLSCE New localities of the apple tooth fungus Sarcodontia crocea and two other rarely recorded lignicolous fungi growing on apple trees MALUS SP. in Poland ABSTRAKT: Kolcówka jabłoniowa Sarcodontia crocea jest rzadko notowanym gatunkiem grzyba pod- stawkowego (Basidiomycota), pasożytującym głównie na jabłoniach Malus spp. W Polsce fi guruje na Polskiej Czerwonej Liście grzybów wielkoowocnikowych. W pracy przedstawiono 7 nowych stanowisk tego gatunku z Mazowsza, Wielkopolski i Żuław Wiślanych, wykrytych w latach 2011–2012. Wszystkie opisane stanowiska dotyczyły drzew jabłoni, rosnących w sadach lub alejach przydrożnych. Stanowiska ze wschodniej Wielkopolski są pierwszymi dla tej części kraju, a obecność kolcówki jabłoniowej na Żuławach Wiślanych potwierdzono po ponad 80 latach braku informacji. W ramach przeprowadzo- nych poszukiwań stwierdzono także dwa inne nieczęsto notowane gatunki grzybów podstawkowych z czerwonej listy: złotoporka czerniejącego (niemiłego) Aurantioporus fi ssilis (12 stanowisk) oraz bły- skoporka szczotkowatego Inonotus hispidus (3 stanowiska). SŁOWA KLUCZOWE: kolcówka jabłoniowa, złotoporek czerniejący, błyskoporek szczotkowaty, makrogrzyby, czerwona lista grzybów, rozmieszczenie, Polska ABSTRACT: Th e paper presents new localities of three rare, red-listed Basidiomycota fungi associated with apple trees. For the apple tooth fungus Sarcodontia crocea the description of basidiomes collected is given and new localities are described in detail, including fi rst records for Wielkopolska region and the confi rmation of the species presence in northern Poland aft er 80 years. For the greasy bracket Aurantioporus fi ssilis (12 new sites) and the shaggy bracket Inonotus hispidus (three new sites) new localities are presented. -

Allophlebia, a New Genus to Accomodate Phlebia Ludoviciana (Agaricomycetes, Polyporales)

Read Full License Page 1/18 Abstract Allophlebia is proposed as a new genus in Meruliaceae based on morphological characters and molecular data. The genus is typied by Peniophora ludoviciana and the new combination A. ludoviciana is proposed. The genus is so far monotypic. The type species is characterized by a resupinate basidioma, a monomitic hyphal system with clamp connections, two types of cystidia (leptocystidia and metuloids), clavate basidia, and hyaline, thin-walled and ellipsoid basidiospores. A phylogeny for Allophlebia and related taxa was inferred from ITS and nLSU rDNA sequences and new information about the geographic distribution of A. ludoviciana is provided. Introduction Phlebia Fr. (Polyporales, Meruliaceae) was described by Fries in 1821 and intended for species with a hymenium composed of irregular veins and ridges. Fries (1828) pointed to P. radiata as the most typical member of his new genus and this species is now generally accepted as the type (Donk 1957). Species in Phlebia sensu lato usually have resupinate basidiomata that are ceraceous to subgelatinous in fresh specimens, and with a membraneous or coriaceous consistency when dry. -

An Inventory of Fungal Diversity in Ohio Research Thesis Presented In
An Inventory of Fungal Diversity in Ohio Research Thesis Presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for graduation with research distinction in the undergraduate colleges of The Ohio State University by Django Grootmyers The Ohio State University April 2021 1 ABSTRACT Fungi are a large and diverse group of eukaryotic organisms that play important roles in nutrient cycling in ecosystems worldwide. Fungi are poorly documented compared to plants in Ohio despite 197 years of collecting activity, and an attempt to compile all the species of fungi known from Ohio has not been completed since 1894. This paper compiles the species of fungi currently known from Ohio based on vouchered fungal collections available in digitized form at the Mycology Collections Portal (MyCoPortal) and other online collections databases and new collections by the author. All groups of fungi are treated, including lichens and microfungi. 69,795 total records of Ohio fungi were processed, resulting in a list of 4,865 total species-level taxa. 250 of these taxa are newly reported from Ohio in this work. 229 of the taxa known from Ohio are species that were originally described from Ohio. A number of potentially novel fungal species were discovered over the course of this study and will be described in future publications. The insights gained from this work will be useful in facilitating future research on Ohio fungi, developing more comprehensive and modern guides to Ohio fungi, and beginning to investigate the possibility of fungal conservation in Ohio. INTRODUCTION Fungi are a large and very diverse group of organisms that play a variety of vital roles in natural and agricultural ecosystems: as decomposers (Lindahl, Taylor and Finlay 2002), mycorrhizal partners of plant species (Van Der Heijden et al. -

Kotl. is recorded for the first time from Armenia. The specimen has been col- lected from the old fallen branch of apple tree (Malus sp.) and known from the single locality, the private orchard at the Vahagni village, Lori province. Herein, the collected specimen, habitat and threats are briefly described. Further inclusion to the Red Data Book of Armenia is recommended. KEYS WORD apple tooth fungus, biodiversity, distribution, Polyporales, South Caucasus INR T oduCTion from North Caucasus (Russia) and Georgia (Ghobad- Nejhad et al. 2009). S. crocea, a so-called xyloparasite, Armenia is a mountainous and small landlocked country, grows on trunks, branches or roots live trees, both wild located in the South Caucasus region. Being part of the and cultivated, predominantly on fruit trees, mainly Caucasus biodiversity hotspot, it is also well known for Malus spp., and in frequently other tree species, in- rich biodiversity and notable level of endemism (Anony- cluding Pyrus spp., Prunus spp., Fagus spp., Fraxinus mous 2014).
