    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.

  • Xerocomus S. L. in the Light of the Present State of Knowledge
    CZECH MYCOL. 60(1): 29–62, 2008 Xerocomus s. l. in the light of the present state of knowledge JOSEF ŠUTARA Prosetická 239, 415 01 Teplice, Czech Republic [email protected] Šutara J. (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. Key words: Boletaceae, Xerocomus, Xerocomellus, Hemileccinum, generic taxonomy, anatomy, histology. Šutara J. (2008): Rod Xerocomus s. l. ve světle současného stavu znalostí. – Czech Mycol.

  • Mycological Notes 11: Boletus Edulis in Canterbury Jerry Cooper, July 2012
    Mycological Notes 11: Boletus edulis in Canterbury Jerry Cooper, July 2012 Probably most mycologically minded New Zealanders know about Boletus edulis in Christchurch. Wang et al (1995) reported its occurrence with a number of host trees across the City and a single collection from Lake Pukaki with Birch. A well-known stronghold is with Quercus robur (Oak) in Hagley Park where it occurs with a range of other fungi. Wang et al speculate that B. edulis arrived with early European settlers into Christchurch and spread, perhaps with nursery plants in some cases. Research by Stringer et al (2002 & pers.comm), indicates that the old oak trees in Hagley Park arrived as living plants in half-barrels on-board ship. Thus the soil+fungus+roots+tree were shipped together. Even the possible source of the nursery near Bagshot in the UK has been traced. Similar shipments were apparently made to Nelson and planted in parks there. Recently there are reports of the fungus from various plantations in North Canterbury. In New Zealand the bolete is relatively immune to attack by fungous gnats, unlike its home range where most specimens rapidly become a maggot nursery. In recent years I have noticed more damage, so either the associated fungus gnat has arrived, or local species have developed a taste for it. The fungus has also been introduced/arrived with Pinus plantations in South Africa, Zimbabwe, and Chile. Wang et al also recognised that the name ‘Boletus edulis’ has been used in a broad sense by some, with morphological/host differences recognised as separate species by others.
