  • 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.

  • How to Distinguish Amanita Smithiana from Matsutake and Catathelasma Species
    VOLUME 57: 1 JANUARY-FEBRUARY 2017 www.namyco.org How to Distinguish Amanita smithiana from Matsutake and Catathelasma species By Michael W. Beug: Chair, NAMA Toxicology Committee A recent rash of mushroom poisonings involving liver failure in Oregon prompted Michael Beug to issue the following photos and information on distinguishing the differences between the toxic Amanita smithiana and edible Matsutake and Catathelasma. Distinguishing the choice edible Amanita smithiana Amanita smithiana Matsutake (Tricholoma magnivelare) from the highly poisonous Amanita smithiana is best done by laying the stipe (stem) of the mushroom in the palm of your hand and then squeezing down on the stipe with your thumb, applying as much pressure as you can. Amanita smithiana is very firm but if you squeeze hard, the stipe will shatter. Matsutake The stipe of the Matsutake is much denser and will not shatter (unless it is riddled with insect larvae and is no longer in good edible condition). There are other important differences. The flesh of Matsutake peels or shreds like string cheese. Also, the stipe of the Matsutake is widest near the gills Matsutake and tapers gradually to a point while the stipe of Amanita smithiana tends to be bulbous and is usually widest right at ground level. The partial veil and ring of a Matsutake is membranous while the partial veil and ring of Amanita smithiana is powdery and readily flocculates into small pieces (often disappearing entirely). For most people the difference in odor is very distinctive. Most collections of Amanita smithiana have a bleach-like odor while Matsutake has a distinctive smell of old gym socks and cinnamon redhots (however, not all people can distinguish the odors).

  • Notes on Methodology for Study of Amanita
    Methodology / 1 1RWHVRQ0HWKRGRORJ\IRU6WXG\RI$PDQLWD$JDULFDOHV Rodham E. Tulloss P. O. Box 57 Roosevelt, New Jersey 08555-0057 U.S.A. The organizers of the first presentation of Seminario sobre Amanita (at the Mycological Laboratory, Universidad Autónoma de Tlaxcala, Tlaxcala, México) asked me to discuss every step of my collecting and note taking process as well as other methodological points in regard to the study of Amanita Pers. This resulted in production of a detailed syllabus (Tulloss, 1994a). It seemed to be a profitable thing to do despite the fact experienced attendees at the seminar were very familiar with practices common to collecting agarics in general. The seminar’s syllabus has evolved through three additional editions. This paper is intended to share the methodological part of the seminar with a broader audience; it is a “work in progress.” The paper is divided into three sections entitled: “In the Field,” “In the Laboratory—Macroscopic Characters,” and “In the Laboratory—Microscopic Characters with Comments on Their Observation.” It is important to acknowledge at the outset the great debt that is owed to the work of Dr. Cornelis Bas, particularly to his thesis (Bas, 1969) on Amanita section Lepidella (E. J. Gilb.) Veselý emend. Cor- ner & Bas. Reading this document was an enlightening experience for me. It changed the direction of my life and gave me the best foundation for the study of Amanita for which one could have hoped and a clear model of excellence in taxonomic scholarship. This paper is dedicated to Dr. Bas to whom I wish to express my profound gratitude for his work, his mentoring, his wisdom, his subtle criticism, his gen- erosity, his humor, his encouragement, and his discipline.

  • A Survey of Fungal Diversity in Northeast Ohio1
    A Survey of Fungal Diversity in Northeast Ohio1 BRI'IT A. BUNYARD, Biology Department, Dauby Science Center, Ursuline College, Pepper Pike, OH 44124 ABSTRACT. Threats to our natural areas come from several sources; this problem is all too familiar in northeast Ohio. One of the goals of the Geauga County Park District is to protect high quality natural areas from rapidly encroaching development. One measure of an ecosystem's importance, as well as overall health, is in the biodiversity present. Furthermore, once the species diversity is assessed, this can be used to monitor the well-being of the ecosystem into the future. Currently, a paucity of information exists on the diversity of higher fungi in northern Ohio. The purpose of this two-year investigation was to inventory species of macrofungi present within The West Woods Park (Geauga Co., OH) and to evaluate overall diversity among different taxonomic groups of fungi present. Fruit bodies of Basidiomycetous and Ascomycetous fungi were collected weekly throughout the 2000 and 2001 growing seasons, identified using taxonomic keys, and photographed. At least 134 species from 30 families of Basidiomycetous fungi and at least 19 species from 11 families of Ascomycetous fungi were positively identified during this study. The results of this study were more extensive than from those of any previous survey in northeast Ohio. These findings point out the importance of The West Woods ecosystem to biodiversity of fungi in particular, possibly to overall biodiversity in general, and as an invaluable preserve for the northeast Ohio region. OHIO J SCI 103 (2):29-32, 2003 INTRODUCTION need for biodiversity assessment to evaluate the fates Fungi are among the most diverse groups of living of ever-decreasing natural habitats (Hawksworth 1991; organisms on earth, though inadequately studied world- National Research Council 1993; Cannon 1997; Rossman wide (Hawksworth 1991; Cannon 1997; Rossman and and Farr 1997).

  • A Preliminary Checklist of Macrofungi of Guatemala, with Notes on Edibility and Traditional Knowledge
    Mycosphere Doi 10.5943/mycosphere/3/1/1 A preliminary checklist of macrofungi of Guatemala, with notes on edibility and traditional knowledge Flores Arzú R1, Comandini O2 and Rinaldi AC2,* 1Departamento de Microbiología, Facultad de CCQQ y Farmacia, Universidad de San Carlos de Guatemala, Ciudad Universitaria zona 12, 01012, Guatemala 2Department of Biomedical Sciences and Technologies, University of Cagliari, I–09042 Monserrato (CA), Italy Flores Arzú R, Comandini O, Rinaldi AC 2012 – A preliminary checklist of macrofungi of Guatemala, with notes on edibility and traditional knowledge. Mycosphere 3(1), 1-21, Doi 10.5943/mycosphere/3/1/1 Despite its biological wealth, current knowledge on the macromycetes inhabiting Guatemala is scant, in part because of the prolonged civil war that has prevented exploration of many ecological niches. We provide a preliminary literature–based checklist of the macrofungi occuring in the various ecological regions of Guatemala, supplemented with original observations reported here for the first time. Three hundred and fifty species, 163 genera, and 20 orders in the Ascomycota and Basidiomycota have been reported from Guatemala. Many of the entries pertain to ectomycorrhizal fungal species that live in symbiosis with the several Pinus and Quercus species that form the extensive pine and mixed forests of the highlands (up to 3600 m a.s.l.). As part of an ongoing study of the ethnomycology of the Maya populations in the Guatemalan highlands, we also report on the traditional knowledge about macrofungi and their uses among native people. These preliminary data confirm the impression that Guatemala hosts a macrofungal diversity that is by no means smaller than that recorded in better studied neighboring Mesoamerican areas, such as Mexico and Costa Rica.
