To date, three species of the genus Cotylidia have been identified in the Czech Republic: C. muscigena, C. pannosa, and C. undulata. The occurrence of Cotylidia undulata in the Czech Re- public was already confirmed and a new locality is published here. The other two species are newly re- ported from the Czech Republic. The remaining two European Cotylidia species are not yet known from the area studied: C. carpatica and the badly known Mediterranean C. marsicana. Finally one specimen found during the study of herbarium material does not correspond well to any known Euro- pean species. The genus was reviewed based on fresh and herbarium specimens. The species of Cotylidia are described and an identification key is added. All three species are rarely reported fungi.

  • Appendix K. Survey and Manage Species Persistence Evaluation
    Appendix K. Survey and Manage Species Persistence Evaluation Establishment of the 95-foot wide construction corridor and TEWAs would likely remove individuals of H. caeruleus and modify microclimate conditions around individuals that are not removed. The removal of forests and host trees and disturbance to soil could negatively affect H. caeruleus in adjacent areas by removing its habitat, disturbing the roots of host trees, and affecting its mycorrhizal association with the trees, potentially affecting site persistence. Restored portions of the corridor and TEWAs would be dominated by early seral vegetation for approximately 30 years, which would result in long-term changes to habitat conditions. A 30-foot wide portion of the corridor would be maintained in low-growing vegetation for pipeline maintenance and would not provide habitat for the species during the life of the project. Hygrophorus caeruleus is not likely to persist at one of the sites in the project area because of the extent of impacts and the proximity of the recorded observation to the corridor. Hygrophorus caeruleus is likely to persist at the remaining three sites in the project area (MP 168.8 and MP 172.4 (north), and MP 172.5-172.7) because the majority of observations within the sites are more than 90 feet from the corridor, where direct effects are not anticipated and indirect effects are unlikely. The site at MP 168.8 is in a forested area on an east-facing slope, and a paved road occurs through the southeast part of the site. Four out of five observations are more than 90 feet southwest of the corridor and are not likely to be directly or indirectly affected by the PCGP Project based on the distance from the corridor, extent of forests surrounding the observations, and proximity to an existing open corridor (the road), indicating the species is likely resilient to edge- related effects at the site.

Gloeodontia discolor, Hydnochaete paucisetigera, and Thelephora dentosa are recorded for the first time for Mexican mycobiota, and Gloiothele lactescens is reported for a new location. Key words—Basidiomycota, clavarioid, corticioid, new records, taxonomy Introduction The 1260 ha of land known as Ejido Estero de Milpas (21°14′52″N 97°28′29″W) in the municipality of Tamiahua lies within the Tamiahua Lagoon region in northern Veracruz State, Mexico. The climate is tropical and the area is covered primarily by halophytic vegetation, cattle ranches, tall semi-evergreen forests, and an ecosystem in which tropical oaks are well represented, especially Quercus oleoides and Q. glaucescens (Registro Agrario Nacional 2016). Aphyllophoroid fungi are an unofficial basidiomycete assemblage representing such diverse fungi as corticioids, polypores, and clavarioids (Kunttu & al. 2014); they are widely distributed in temperate and tropical forests and play an important role in the degradation of organic matter.

R. China 2Institue of Ecology and Earth Sciences and Natural History Museum, University of Tartu, 14A Ravila, 50411 Tartu, Estonia * Correspondence to: [email protected] Abstract — Coltricia australica sp. nov. is described and illustrated from Tasmania, Australia. It is characterized by its annual and centrally stipitate basidiocarps with concentrically zonate and glabrous pilei when dry, angular pores of 3–4 per mm, and ellipsoid, thin- to thick- walled, smooth, pale yellowish, and cyanophilous basidiospores. This species is terrestrial in angiosperm forests. Key words — Hymenochaetaceae, polypore, taxonomy Introduction Coltricia Gray, typified by C. connata Gray [= C. perennis (L.) Murrill], is a cosmopolitan genus of Hymenochaetales and has been well studied in Africa (Ryvarden & Johansen 1980), Asia (Núñez & Ryvarden 2000, Dai & Cui 2005, Dai et al. 2010, Dai 2010, 2012, Dai & Li 2012, Baltazar & Silveira 2012), Europe (Ryvarden & Gilbertson 1993), Neotropics (Ryvarden 2004, Baltazar et al. 2010), and North America (Gilbertson & Ryvarden 1986). Coltricia differs from other genera in Hymenochaetales by the combination of annual stipitate and fragile (when dry) basidiocarps, a monomitic hyphal system, and colored slightly to distinctly thick-walled smooth basidiospores (Dai 2010). Coltriciella Murrill, the most morphologically similar genus to Coltricia, differs by its ornamented basidiospores (Dai 2010).

Nonetheless, species are still being added to its mycota and it is possible that the knowledge of its whole diversity is far from being achieved. On the other hand Caatinga is one of the lesser known. However, studies in this biome have been undertaken and the knowledge about it increasing. Based in recent surveys in Atlantic Forest and Caatinga remnants in the Brazilian States of Bahia, Pernambuco and Sergipe, and revision of herbaria, twenty polypore species previously unknown for these states were found. Fuscoporia chrysea and Inonotus pseudoglomeratus are new records to Brazil and nine are new to the Northeast Region.

  • 9B Taxonomy to Genus
    Fungus and Lichen Genera in the NEMF Database Taxonomic hierarchy: phyllum > class (-etes) > order (-ales) > family (-ceae) > genus. Total number of genera in the database: 526 Anamorphic fungi (see p. 4), which are disseminated by propagules not formed from cells where meiosis has occurred, are presently not grouped by class, order, etc. Most propagules can be referred to as "conidia," but some are derived from unspecialized vegetative mycelium. A significant number are correlated with fungal states that produce spores derived from cells where meiosis has, or is assumed to have, occurred. These are, where known, members of the ascomycetes or basidiomycetes. However, in many cases, they are still undescribed, unrecognized or poorly known. (Explanation paraphrased from "Dictionary of the Fungi, 9th Edition.") Principal authority for this taxonomy is the Dictionary of the Fungi and its online database, www.indexfungorum.org.

Fifty putative Corresponding Editor: families were identified from published phylogenies and preliminary analyses of unpub- Scott LaGreca lished sequence data. A dataset with 178 terminal taxa was compiled and subjected to phy- logenetic analyses using MP and Bayesian inference. From the analyses, 41 strongly Keywords: supported and three unsupported clades were identified. These clades are treated as fam- Agaricomycetes ilies in a Linnean hierarchical classification and each family is briefly described. Three ad- Basidiomycota ditional families not covered by the phylogenetic analyses are also included in the Molecular systematics classification. All accepted corticioid genera are either referred to one of the families or Phylogeny listed as incertae sedis. Taxonomy ª 2007 The British Mycological Society. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

    Welsh Dune Fungi: Data Collation, Evaluation and Conservation Priorities S.E. Evans & P.J. Roberts Evidence Report No 134 About Natural Resources Wales Natural Resources Wales is the organisation responsible for the work carried out by the three former organisations, the Countryside Council for Wales, Environment Agency Wales and Forestry Commission Wales. It is also responsible for some functions previously undertaken by Welsh Government. Our purpose is to ensure that the natural resources of Wales are sustainably maintained, used and enhanced, now and in the future. We work for the communities of Wales to protect people and their homes as much as possible from environmental incidents like flooding and pollution. We provide opportunities for people to learn, use and benefit from Wales' natural resources. We work to support Wales' economy by enabling the sustainable use of natural resources to support jobs and enterprise. We help businesses and developers to understand and consider environmental limits when they make important decisions. We work to maintain and improve the quality of the environment for everyone and we work towards making the environment and our natural resources more resilient to climate change and other pressures.
