Background The fungal flora of Singapore was first listed in a report of the fungi of the Straits Settlements territories which also included records from Malacca and Penang (Chipp, 1921). A list of the fungi solely from Singapore was compiled by Turner et al. (1994) when an inventory of the of the island was carried out. Most of the fungal records from Singapore are from the late 1800s to the 1970s. Many of the fungi were collected by the late Prof E. J. H. Corner (1906-1996). He was Assistant Director of the

Singapore Botanic Gardens from 1929 to 1945 and famous both as a botanist and a mycologist. His fungal collections from Singapore which include specimens (dried and in alcohol-formalin), paintings, and notes are now preserved in various herbaria, with the greater part being in the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh, as well as the Singapore Botanic Gardens. We wanted to review the macrofungal records from Singapore and group the fungi under the main locations from which they were collected. The locations are Bukit Timah (mainly the Nature Reserve), the Singapore Botanic Gardens (including the surrounding areas of Cluny Road and Dalvey Road), MacRitchie and Pierce (referred to as Reservoirs' Jungle by Corner), and Mandai and Seletar. Each of these areas has varying protection status and has undergone development at different rates in the modernisation of Singapore. This publication lists the macrofungi (or larger fungi) collected from MacRitchie and Pierce (the island's main water catchment area for a long time). There is growing interest in the natural history of Singapore with more people participating in nature

1 Original from and digitized by National University of Singapore Libraries activities - such as guided walks or exploring marked trails that are within MacRitchie and Pierce - to learn more about the island's biodiversity. The data compiled here can be used by persons keen to study and record fungi of this locality to refer to as a historical baseline.

Macrofungi What are macrofungi? Macrofungi are the fungi often referred to as or toadstools. They belong to the phyla (or divisions) and Ascomyota and have large visible fruiting bodies. Many of these fungi are ecologically important as and help plants gain access to greater water and mineral nutrient supplies (Van der Heijden et al., 1998). The partnership between plants and specific mycorrhizal fungi in the soil is fundamental to the healthy establishment of forests in several sites. Other macrofungi serve as decomposers in the environment by returning nutrients to the ecosystem. Many are sources of food for animals in the wild (e.g. tortoises, monkeys, squirrels, and a vast number of insects and other arthropods), not to mention also humans (Izzo et al., 2005; Walleyn & Rammeloo, 1994; Corner, 1988). Several macrofungi also provide compounds of medicinal value and yet others are economically important because they cause decay and disease. A general classification of what we consider macrofungi is provided in Appendix I.

MacRitchie-Pierce (Reservoirs' Jungle)

The forested area around MacRitchie Reservoir and the Lower and Upper Pierce Reservoirs (Figure 1) consists of mainly old secondary forests surrounding patches of primeval rainforests (Corlett, 1997). The area has also been referred to as the Reservoirs' Jungle by Corner and other collectors. Much of the virgin forest in

Original from and digitized by National University of Singapore Libraries the area had been replaced by gambier and pepper plantations by the end of the 19th century. The development of the reservoirs in the early 20th century however helped to prevent further destruction of the forest and offered some protection through its status as a water catchment site (Corlett, 1995). The secondary forest buffers the remnants of primary vegetation and also offers a habitat for forest-dependent animal species. In the last few years, the areas immediately around the reservoirs have experienced considerable change with intense demand for recreational space in land-scarce Singapore. Parks and accompanying amenities have sprung up around the reservoirs and designated walking trails have been created to allow greater visitor access. A proposal to run a stretch of a new 50 km subway line under the Catchment Area was announced in 2016. This additional train line - the Cross Island Line - which will run from Changi to Jurong, linking several densely populated residential regions, is slated to be completed by 2030. Feasibility studies are currently being conducted to assess the impact of tunnelling to the forests and wildlife and a final decision of whether to build the line through the forest (albeit 40 km below the surface), or have the line skirt around it but at additional cost, is expected to be made in about one to two years time. More changes to the area are inevitable.

Annotations on the checklist

In addition to published literature, the checklist in this book includes locations of the fungal specimens in the different herbaria in which they are now housed. Drawings, paintings and photographs of the fungal species in figures and plates in the publications cited are indicated. Additional illustrations such as original paintings of the fungi preserved in different herbaria

3 Original from and digitized by National University of Singapore Libraries worldwide are included (a number have not been written up in known publications but remain as the only known records of the fungi). This information can be used to facilitate retrieval of materials for those wishing to study these specimens in greater detail, or to focus on consolidating materials from a single group of fungi. The annotations also include brief extracts of field notes and comments made by the collectors. Such notes and comments, often excluded from conventional scientific listings, provide some context and background to the collections from a natural history or biographical perspective. While they may appear arbitrary or not strictly scientifically relevant, they do reveal interesting observations, or details about the people who collected the scientific data, and the period or circumstances in which the work was undertaken, and help make the lists more accessible to the general reader.

There is overlap of some of the literature sources included here with the work of Lee et al. (2012a & b) who published a complete checklist of the literature relevant to the study of Malaysian macrofungi, as well as a checklist of fungi in Malaysia, which included records from Singapore. Recently, Horak (2011) also reviewed the , a group of fleshy pored fungi, described by

Corner between 1972 and 1974. In addition, Hattori made an extensive and systematic examination of Corner's or bracket fungi (2000; 2001a & b; 2003a & b; 2005; 2013). We have thus updated some of the names and records in the checklist in this book based on the work of these researchers; new names and concepts resulting from changes in the of the various groups, and ambiguous identifications are indicated. Horak and Hattori's publications also remarked that several of the fungal specimens, including those from Singapore, have

4 Original from and digitized by National University of Singapore Libraries deteriorated with age and problems in storage, and there is thus a pressing need to re-examine and consolidate our knowledge of the collections from Singapore before it is too late.

Checklist of macrofungi from MacRitchie and Pierce (Reservoirs' Jungle) The 129 species and varieties of macrofungi recorded in this area are distributed across 27 different families (Table 1). The genera with the most number of species are Amanita (12 species), Entoloma (8 species), (13 species) and Tylopilus (9 species). Close to half of the species recorded from this location are not listed from the other localities in Singapore. As with Bukit Timah Nature Reserve, the largest number of macrofungi recorded in this area is from the family with 29 species recorded. In addition to these records from the Reservoirs' Jungle, several paintings of macrofungi from this locality exist. They include those from the genera Clitopilus, Entoloma, Hydnum, Lactarius, Marasmius, Russula and . These were identified only to level and numbered. Species identification has as yet not been made and they are represented by paintings and field notes made by Prof E. J. H. Corner. At least 50 of the collections from the Reservoirs'

Jungle are holotypes of the species. This checklist covers only the macrofungi recorded from the MacRitchie-Pierce area. It is part of a series of four covering different localities in Singapore. The lists for the other three localities, Bukit Timah, Singapore Botanic Gardens, and Mandai- Seletar are printed separately. As is for the lists from the other localities, the macrofungi documented here are drawn from the published literature on the macrofungal flora of this region and from the database of mycological specimens and paintings of the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh.

71 Original from and digitized by National University of Singapore Libraries Additional remarks on the checklists of macrofungi from Singapore1 The figures in the series of checklists show a rich macrofungi record in Singapore with a high number of different species and varieties found in the Bukit Timah Nature Reserve (227), the Singapore Botanic Gardens (313), the Reservoirs' Jungle comprising MacRitchie and Pierce (129), the Mandai-Seletar Forests (82) and from various other localities throughout the island (114). Many additional species and varieties from the genera such as Russula, Lactarius, Hydnum and Lepiota were also observed by Prof E. J. H. Corner who recorded them in the form of paintings and field notes. These have not been formerly written up and published. The numbers of species thus is certainly higher especially if the over 30 different as yet undescribed Russula and more than 20 Lepiota are included. Many of the sites from which the macrofungi were recorded collectively form the Central Catchment area for water for the island's main reservoirs. Some of the sites from which these fungi were collected are gone, in particular those in the Mandai-Seletar area. High visitor numbers to the popular green areas of the Bukit Timah Nature Reserve, the MacRitchie and Pierce Reservoirs and the Singapore Botanic Gardens have also meant changes to these sites. They have been considerably developed and redeveloped over the years. Inevitably some old species are lost because of habitat changes and new species are introduced from soil and equipment brought in as a result of construction activities and on

1 This section 'Additional remarks on the checklists of macrofungi from Singapore' appears in the conclusions of the checklists for each of the four localities.

72 Original from and digitized by National University of Singapore Libraries the feet and clothing of travellers traversing through the many paths that penetrate the areas. It will be interesting to consider these checklists with more recent field collections and surveys and take stock of the changes. The bulk of the over 650 different macrofungal species and varieties recorded from Singapore and presented in the current lists are basidiomycetes. Members of the boletales feature strongly from the sites. The late Prof E. J. H. Corner who published on the boletes collected from Malaysia had recognised only the genera Boletus, Gyroporus, Hemiella (Hemioporus) and Strobilomyces (Corner, 1972a). The subgenera he recognised as Austroboletus, , Boletus s. str., Ixocomus, Leccinum, Pulveroboletus, Tylopilus and Xerocomus are however now accepted as valid genera and have been transferred to the appropriate genus level (Watling, 2008; Horak, 2011). The second author of this book, Prof Roy Watling has also examined in detail Baker's boletes identified by Patouillard in the Farlow Herbarium Massachusetts, USA and numerous new collections from S. E. Asia and Australia (Watling, 1994; Watling, 2001a, b & c; Watling, 2008; Watling & Lee, 1995, 1999; Watling et al., 2002). The Singapore checklists thus follow the nomenclature for the boletales as revised by Watling (2008) and Horak (2011) but with indication of where these boletoid genera and species are described in Prof Corner's quintessential monograph. In addition to updating the names and status of the bolete species described by Corner, we have consulted the systematic revisiting of his collections by Hattori (2000, 2001a & b, 2003a & b,

2005) and Hattori & Sotome (2013) for current names and status of the species. For other species we have also referred to the databases, Species Fungorum (http://www.speciesfungorum.org/) and MycoBank (http://www.mycobank.org/), as well as other

73 Original from and digitized by National University of Singapore Libraries recommended literature where possible. We know that although some of the entries of Corner's taxa in the present checklists are really referable to other more modern genera, they cannot be placed there for the time being as the appropriate combination has not been made. Extensive revision of fungal systematics with sequence data from molecular studies is also underway (Hibbert et al., 2016) and more changes are to be expected and will need to be made.

Many boletes are known to be mycorrhizal with trees and are an integral part of the forest habitat. The bolete mycobiota in the Malayan region is linked to the Dipterocarpaceae, the huge trees characterising the lowland tropical primary forest found in the Bukit Timah Nature Reserve and the Central Catchment Nature Reserve in Singapore. A number of the amanitas have also been reported to be putative . We have tried to indicate the mycorrhizal status of the fungi in the various lists where published information is available. It will be useful to conduct further research to establish unequivocally the nature of these mycorrhizal associations with the tropical lowland dipterocarp forest species to better understand how to manage healthy forests which are capable of sustained regeneration. It must also be noted that the figures in the checklist published here do not represent any actual number of fungal species within each of the sites. Other than indicating that there are indeed many fungal taxa present, these checklists drawn from published records cannot make any firm conclusions on comparisons of the diversity of macrofungi between the various sites, or the accurate representation of different taxa within each site. Many factors may have affected the number of collections and fungal types from each site such as sampling frequency, sampling times, the conspicuous or ephemeral nature of the macrofungi there, and possibly even

74 Original from and digitized by National University of Singapore Libraries ease of collection, identification, preservation and storage of specimens. To obtain more meaningful information on the real fungal diversity in each of these areas in Singapore, systematic surveys with regular unbiased sampling over an extended period of time are needed. Over time, the lists will likely be increased in many aspects and in others will be decreased or lost entirely with shrinking niches and competition. Of the macrofungi collected from Singapore and listed in the series, at least 330 are marked holotypes of the species from which scientific descriptions were made and published. The majority of these holotypes are from the Bukit Timah Nature Reserve and the

Singapore Botanic Gardens. These voucher specimens are important primarily because they are scientifically crucial for verification of the results of taxonomic identification and research.

They also hold additional value as archival specimens of past botanical research in Singapore, and are an integral part of the mycological legacy of the island and its natural history.

Classification of fungi Traditionally, grouping or classification of fungi was based on similarities in shape, in particular that of the fruit bodies, often the most visible part of the . This grouping based on form (morphology) for identification has very practical uses in the field. However, convenient as it may be, species that look superficially similar may not always be closely related. DNA analysis is now widely used to determine relationships among fungi to produce a more natural classification that will bring fungi that are genetically related together, irrespective of how they look. This has changed the way we traditionally group fungi as some previously distinct groups are found to be actually closely related, while others that appear similar are more distant in lineage. Organisms in the kingdom fungi are currently grouped into eight major phyla and most of the larger fungi or macrofungi fall within the two phyla Basidiomycota and . Tables A-l and A-2 show in part the general classification of the Basidiomycota and the Ascomycota, respectively (only classes, orders and families which contain macrofungi have been included).

How do we interpret the species names of the fungi in the lists in this book? The scientific name of a fungus is in Latin and consists of two parts - the genus and the specific epithet. This is followed by the name of the person who originally described it. For example, in Psathyrella verrucispora Corner, the genus is Psathyrella and the specific epithet is verrucispora, and the author who first described this fungal species is E. J. H. Corner. This author citation may also be abbreviated (Table A-3 shows a list of

85 Original from and digitized by National University of Singapore Libraries the authors and author abbreviations for the fungi in this publication). When a species has been transferred to another genus because of new information available, the original author's name is retained but placed in parentheses, and the name of the author who made the transfer is placed after this. For example, when we see the name Phylloporia chrysita (Berk.) Ryvarden, it indicates that the fungus has been transferred to the genus Phylloporia by Ryvarden although it was originally described by Berkeley (abbreviated 'Berk.') as Polyporus chrysite.

Original from and digitized by National University of Singapore Libraries Annotated checklist of macrofungi recorded from Singapore: MacRitchie-Pierce

Two main checklists have been published on fungi from Singapore, one in 1921, and another in 1994. Both provide records of species of macrofungi and microfungi found here. However, no notes about the fungi were included.

This publication is one in a series of four that re-visits the records of the macrofungi (larger fungi) collected from the island and organizes them into the localities from which they were collected. The lists in the books are annotated to provide some ecological information such as habit, habitat, and mycorrhizal status of the species, as well as where herbarium specimens and types are located. Illustrations such as line drawings and paintings that document these records are also listed. The sources for each entry can be used for tracing and possible follow- up work by those interested in studying the fungi of this region. The majority of the specimens recorded were collected by Prof E. J. H. Corner (1906-1996), a prolific mycologist and botanist of the South- East Asian region who was also Assistant Director of the Singapore Botanic Gardens from 1929 to 1945.

This checklist from the MacRitchie-Pierce region consists of 129 species and varieties of which at least 50 are type specimens.

Dr F. Y. Tham was a lecturer and associate professor at the National Institute of Education, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore.

Prof Roy Watling MBE, PhD, DSc, FRSE, FIBiol, Cbiol, FLS was former head of mycology and and acting Regius Keeper at the Royal Botanic Garden, Edinburgh.
