The patterns of the position of taxa of active producers of ligninolytic enzymes in the modern system of fungi were identified. Cluster analysis showed that the group of fungi with the greatest ligni nolytic and degradation potential includes representatives of the families Pleurotaceae, Polyporaceae, and Phan erochaetaceae, which perform the first stages of wood decomposition. As a result, species of interest for the further study of their oxidative potential and use in biotechnology were selected.

Laccariopsis is morphologically close to these genera but distinguished by a unique combination of features: a Laccaria-like habit (distant, thick, subdecurrent lamellae), viscid pileus and upper stipe, glabrous stipe with a long pseudorhiza connecting with Ammophila and Juniperus roots and incorporating plant debris and sand particles, pileipellis consisting of a loose ixohymeniderm with slender pileocystidia, large and thin- to thick-walled spores and basidia, thin- to slightly thick-walled hymenial cystidia and caulocystidia, and monomitic stipe tissue. Phylogenetic analyses based on a combined ITS-LSU sequence dataset place Laccariopsis close to Gloiocephala and Rhizomarasmius. Key words — Agaricomycetes, Physalacriaceae, /gloiocephala clade, phylogeny, taxonomy Introduction Hydropus mediterraneus was originally described by Pacioni & Lalli (1985) based on collections from Mediterranean dune ecosystems in Central Italy, Sardinia, and Tunisia. Previous collections were misidentified as Laccaria maritima (Theodor.) Singer ex Huhtinen (Dal Savio 1984) due to their laccarioid habit. The generic attribution to Hydropus Kühner ex Singer by Pacioni & Lalli (1985) was due mainly to the presence of reddish watery droplets on young lamellae and sarcodimitic tissue in the stipe (Corner 1966, Singer 1982).

Potential active compounds were separated from fermentation broth by activity tracking and identified in structure by spectrum. The results showed that this fungus had common characteristics as Basidiomycota in morphology. According to 18S rDNA and internal transcribed space (ITS) DNA sequencing, this fungus was identified as Bjerkandera adusta in family Meruliaceae. Two active compounds viz., veratric acid and erythro-1-(3, 5-dichlone-4- methoxyphenyl)-1, 2-propylene glycol were identified by nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum and mass spectrum. Veratric acid was separated for the first time from any fungus, while erythro-1-(3, 5-dichlone-4-methoxyphenyl)-1, 2-propylene glycol was once reported in Bjerkandera.

  • A Preliminary Checklist of Arizona Macrofungi
    A PRELIMINARY CHECKLIST OF ARIZONA MACROFUNGI Scott T. Bates School of Life Sciences Arizona State University PO Box 874601 Tempe, AZ 85287-4601 ABSTRACT A checklist of 1290 species of nonlichenized ascomycetaceous, basidiomycetaceous, and zygomycetaceous macrofungi is presented for the state of Arizona. The checklist was compiled from records of Arizona fungi in scientific publications or herbarium databases. Additional records were obtained from a physical search of herbarium specimens in the University of Arizona’s Robert L. Gilbertson Mycological Herbarium and of the author’s personal herbarium. This publication represents the first comprehensive checklist of macrofungi for Arizona. In all probability, the checklist is far from complete as new species await discovery and some of the species listed are in need of taxonomic revision. The data presented here serve as a baseline for future studies related to fungal biodiversity in Arizona and can contribute to state or national inventories of biota. INTRODUCTION Arizona is a state noted for the diversity of its biotic communities (Brown 1994). Boreal forests found at high altitudes, the ‘Sky Islands’ prevalent in the southern parts of the state, and ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa P.& C. Lawson) forests that are widespread in Arizona, all provide rich habitats that sustain numerous species of macrofungi. Even xeric biomes, such as desertscrub and semidesert- grasslands, support a unique mycota, which include rare species such as Itajahya galericulata A. Møller (Long & Stouffer 1943b, Fig. 2c). Although checklists for some groups of fungi present in the state have been published previously (e.g., Gilbertson & Budington 1970, Gilbertson et al. 1974, Gilbertson & Bigelow 1998, Fogel & States 2002), this checklist represents the first comprehensive listing of all macrofungi in the kingdom Eumycota (Fungi) that are known from Arizona.

Beltrán-Tejera ([email protected]) ABSTRACT — Data on aphyllophoroid fungi in Teide National Park Tenerife are summarized, and 102 species are recorded. Twenty eight species are new to Tenerife, out of which 17 are also new records for the Canary Islands (Athelia pyriformis, Cartilosoma ramentaceum, Ceriporia excelsa, Dendrocorticium lilacinoroseum, Hyphoderma sibiricum, Hyphodermella rosae, Hyphodontiella multiseptata, Melzericium bourdotii, Phanerochaete avellanea, Phanerochaete cremeo-ochracea, Phlebia griseoflavescens, Phlebia lacteola, Phlebia lilascens, Phlebia tuberculata, Sistotrema pistilliferum, Skeletocutis amorpha, and Tubulicrinis angustus). The list is supplemented with 7 species of Peniophora recorded for this area, published previously (Díaz Armas et al., 2019). Mycobiota of the two highest mountain areas of the Canary Islands (Teide National Park in Tenerife and Taburiente National Park in La Palma) are compared regarding their richness of genera, species, abundance and substrates. Aphyllophoroid fungi were found on 16 endemic vascular species, the majority were on Spartocytisus supranubius, which is dominant in both abundance and distribution in the study area. KEY WORDS — Biodiversity, Corticioid fungi, high altitude, Spain Introduction This paper presents the results of the study on aphyllophoroid fungi of the Teide National Park. The study is part of a wider project carried out from 2008 to 2010 to record fungi and bryophytes of this protected high mountain area (Beltrán-Tejera et al., 2010a).
