  • Covered in Phylloboletellus and Numerous Clamps in Boletellus Fibuliger
    PERSOONIA Published by the Rijksherbarium, Leiden Volume 11, Part 3, pp. 269-302 (1981) Notes on bolete taxonomy—III Rolf Singer Field Museum of Natural History, Chicago, U.S.A. have Contributions involving bolete taxonomy during the last ten years not only widened the knowledge and increased the number of species in the boletes and related lamellate and gastroid forms, but have also introduced a large number of of new data on characters useful for the generic and subgeneric taxonomy these is therefore timely to fungi,resulting, in part, in new taxonomical arrangements. It consider these new data with a view to integratingthem into an amended classifi- cation which, ifit pretends to be natural must take into account all observations of possible diagnostic value. It must also take into account all sufficiently described species from all phytogeographic regions. 1. Clamp connections Like any other character (including the spore print color), the presence or absence ofclamp connections in is neither in of the carpophores here nor other groups Basidiomycetes necessarily a generic or family character. This situation became very clear when occasional clamps were discovered in Phylloboletellus and numerous clamps in Boletellus fibuliger. Kiihner (1978-1980) rightly postulates that cytology and sexuality should be considered wherever at all possible. This, as he is well aware, is not feasible in most boletes, and we must be content to judgeclamp-occurrence per se, giving it importance wherever associated with other characters and within a well circumscribed and obviously homogeneous group such as Phlebopus, Paragyrodon, and Gyrodon. (Heinemann (1954) and Pegler & Young this is (1981) treat group on the family level.) Gyroporus, also clamp-bearing, considered close, but somewhat more removed than the other genera.

Fulgenzi2, Terry W. Henkel2* & Roy E. Halling3 1Department of Botany, University of Florida Gainesville FL 32611 USA 2Department of Biological Sciences, Humboldt State University Arcata CA 95521 USA 3Institute of Systematic Botany, The New York Botanical Garden Bronx NY 10458 USA Abstract — Boletellus piakaii (Boletaceae, Boletales, Basidiomycota) is described as new to science. Boletellus ananas var. ananas is recorded for the first time from the Guiana Shield region. These boletes were collected from tropical forests dominated by ectomycorrhizal Dicymbe spp. (Caesalpiniaceae) in the Pakaraima Mountains of western Guyana. A key is provided for Boletellus species known to occur in Guyana. Key words — bolete, monodominant forest, tropical fungi, taxonomy Introduction The genusBoletellus Murrill (Boletaceae, Boletales, Basidiomycota) encompasses ~ 46 described species worldwide, the majority with tropical distributions (Heinemann & Goossens-Fontana 1954, Snell & Dick 1970, Smith & Thiers 1971, Corner 1972, Horak 1977, Singer 1986 Singer et al. 1992, Watling 2001, Halling & Mueller 2005, Ortiz-Santana et al. 2007, Fulgenzi et al. 2008). For a discussion on various authors’ concepts of Boletellus see Fulgenzi et al. (2008). Here we describe Boletellus piakaii sp. nov. and provide a new distribution record, host association, and redescription for Boletellus ananas var. ananas occurring in ectomycorrhizal (EM) Dicymbe (Caesalpiniaceae) forests of Guyana. The new species is easily accommodated in Boletellus based on its olivaceous brown, longitudinally ridged basidiospores, dry pileus, tubulose, blue-staining hymenophore, and lack of clamp connections.

(2008): Xerocomus s. l. in the light of the present state of knowledge. – Czech Mycol. 60(1): 29–62. The definition of the generic limits of Xerocomus s. l. and particularly the delimitation of this genus from Boletus is very unclear and controversial. During his study of European species of the Boletaceae, the author has come to the conclusion that Xerocomus in a wide concept is a heterogeneous mixture of several groups of species. These groups are separated from each other by different anatomical and some other characters. Also recent molecular studies show that Xerocomus s. l. is not a monophyletic group. In agreement with these facts, the European species of Xerocomus s. l. whose anatomy was studied by the present author are here classified into the following, more distinctly delimited genera: Xerocomus s. str., Phylloporus, Xerocomellus gen. nov., Hemileccinum gen. nov. and Pseudoboletus. Boletus badius and Boletus moravicus, also often treated as species of Xerocomus, are retained for the present in the genus Boletus. The differences between Xerocomus s. str., Phylloporus, Xerocomellus, Hemileccinum, Pseudoboletus and Boletus (which is related to this group of genera) are discussed in detail. Two new genera, Xerocomellus and Hemileccinum, and necessary new combinations of species names are proposed.

A key to the Boletales from Belize and the Dominican Republic is provided, followed by descriptions, drawings of the micro-structures and photographs of each identified species. Approximately 456 collections from Belize and 222 from the Dominican Republic were studied comprising 58 species of boletes, greatly augmenting the knowledge of the diversity of this group in the Caribbean Basin. A total of 52 species in 14 genera were identified from Belize, including 14 new species. Twenty-nine of the previously described species are new records for Belize and 11 are new for Central America. In the Dominican Republic, 14 species in 7 genera were found, including 4 new species, with one of these new species also occurring in Belize, i.e. Retiboletus vinaceipes. Only one of the previously described species found in the Dominican Republic is a new record for Hispaniola and the Caribbean.

(2009). Spongiforma, a new genus of gastroid boletes from Thailand. Fungal Diversity 37: 1-8. Based on morphological and molecular characters, Spongiforma is described as a new genus of gasteroid boletes belonging in the Boletineae. It is represented by a single species, S. thailandica, that is putatively mycorrhizal with dipterocarp trees in central Thailand. Unusual morphological features include a sponge-like, astipitate, epigeous basidiome with large exposed locules and a strong coal tar odor, and rugulose, reddish brown basidiospores with an apical pore that become smooth and violet grey in 3% potasium hydroxide solution. A description, illustrations, phylogenetic analysis and comparison with allied taxa are presented. Key words: Agaricomycotina, Basidiomycota, Boletineae, molecular phylogenetics, taxonomy.

  • Supplementary Remarks to Austroboletus (CORNER) WOLFE (Boletaceae)
    ZOBODAT - www.zobodat.at Zoologisch-Botanische Datenbank/Zoological-Botanical Database Digitale Literatur/Digital Literature Zeitschrift/Journal: Sydowia Jahr/Year: 1980 Band/Volume: 33 Autor(en)/Author(s): Horak Egon Artikel/Article: Supplementary remarks to Austroboletus (CORNER) WOLFE (Boletaceae). 71-87 ©Verlag Ferdinand Berger & Söhne Ges.m.b.H., Horn, Austria, download unter www.biologiezentrum.at Supplementary remarks to Austroboletus (CORNER) WOLFE (Boletaceae) E. HOBAK Geobotanical Institute, ETHZ, CH-8092 Zürich, Switzerland Introduction Originally the genus Porphyrellus GILBEBT (1931) was exclusively based on Boletus porphyrosporus FRIES (1835), a rather rare, dark brown bolete with smooth, dark brown and fusoid spores (Horak, 1968). Subsequently SINGER (1945) emended the generic range by introducing taxa with punctate or perforate spores respectively. Over the years this concept has been further supplemented and finally Porphyrellus became a large genus containing 4 infrageneric sections (SINGER, 1975). Already a few years earlier CORNER (1972), after examining pertinent Malaysian material, came to the conclusion to abolish SINGER'S classification by accomodating all boletes with punctate- perforate spores in Boletus subgen. Austroboletus (type species: Porphyrellus dictyotus BOEDIJN, 1960). WOLFE & PETERSEN (1978) critically discussed the infrageneric limits and levels of Porphyrellus (ss. SINGER) and subgen. Austroboletus (ss. CORNER) and proposed a new taxonomic scheme for Porphyrellus. A short while later this concept was overthrown again und finally WOLFE (1979) made the inevitable step to shift subgen. Austroboletus CORNER to generic rank. Simultaneously Porphyrellus s. str. was relegated as a subgenus to Tylopilus. After being familiar (since 1967) with many taxa of Austroboletus (from fresh material and exsiccata as well) I am obliged to CORNER and WOLFE and accordingly support this new generic unit at least as a working hypothesis for further taxonomic research.
