Prof. Nelson Chaves, s/n, CEP: 50670-901, Recife-PE, Brazil; email: [email protected] Coimbra VRM 2014 – Checklist of Central and South American Agaricales (Basidiomycota) I: Entolomataceae. Mycosphere 5(3), 475-487, Doi 10.5943/mycosphere/5/3/10 Abstract A literature-based checklist of Entolomataceae species (Agaricales, Basidiomycota) occurring in Central and South Americas is provided. In total, 271 species belonging to 13 genera are reported, representing roughly 18% of the known taxa worldwide. Here, Brazil (107 spp.) and Argentina (80 spp.) were the most representative countries. This list does not reflect the real diversity of Entolomataceae in Neotropics but covers only our limited and inconclusive knowledge. Key words – agarics – America – diversity Introduction Entolomataceae Kotl. & Pouzar (Agaricales, Basidiomycota) is a very rich family which includes more than 1,500 species distributed worldwide and occurring in almost every kinds of vegetation and soil (Noordeloos 1987, Co-David 2009, Noordeloos & Gates 2012). Most of its members are saprophytic, but few ectomycorrhizal species are known (Antibus et al. 1981, Noordeloos 1984, Agerer & Waller 1993). This family has been subject of several taxonomic studies around the world, mainly: Africa (Eyssartier et al. 2001, Noordeloos & Hauksnecht 2007), Asia (Manimohan et al. 1995, 2006, He et al. 2013), Europe (Noordeloos 1987, Orton 1991, Noordeloos & Morozova 2010), Oceania (Horak 1980, Gates & Noordeloos 2007, Noordeloos & Gates 2012) and North America (Baroni & Largent 1989, Horak & Desjardin 1993, Largent 1994). For Central and South Americas, the works of Singer (1969), Horak (1978, 1982), Baroni & Halling (1992, 2000), Baroni & Lodge (1998), Baroni et al. (2008, 2012), Largent et al. (2008), Aime et al. (2010), Coimbra et al. (2013) and Karstedt & Capelari (2013) are noteworthy. Despite of these contributions, some of the Entolomataceae species occurring in these continents are recorded on Agaricales or macrofungi regional monographs or checklists, most with limited availability. The aim of this work is provide a complete literature-based checklist of the Entolomataceae species recorded to Central and South America, evidencing the current panorama of taxonomic knowledge of these fungi. Submitted 23April 2014, Accepted 23 May 2014, Published online 24 June 2014 Corresponding Author: Victor R.M. Coimbra – e-mail – [email protected] 475 Methods This checklist includes data gathered only on published papers and books up to 16 April 2014, not including information from websites and Masters/PhD dissertations. Taxa unidentified at specific level were not included (e.g. Entoloma sp.) as well doubtful ones (species without and/or unknown deposited material or referred as ‘excluded taxa’ on the publications). Herbaria data were also not included in this list (for voucher numbers, see respective references). Despite of the clear separation of Entolomataceae species with bumped or ridged basidiospores (without true facets) as suggested by Co-David et al. (2009), there is no consensus on the scientific community related to the generic classification of angular-spored taxa (with true facets). Due the high morphological variability found between species with this kind of basidiospores, Entoloma taxa are treated here in a narrower sense, following Largent (1994). For bumped- to ridged-spored taxa (Clitopilus spp.), the generic classification of Co-David et al. (2009) was adopted. Some taxa labeled as Rhodocybe Maire or Rhodophyllus Quél. and without combination in Clitopilus (Fr. ex Rabenh.) P. Kumm. and Entoloma (Fr. ex Rabenh.) P. Kumm. respectively, were inserted in the end of the list, in a special section. Nomenclatures followed the databases MycoBank and Index Fungorum. Results and Discussion Through extensive research, a total of 271 Entolomataceae species were listed to Neotropics (Table 1) based on previously published information. If considered the estimated number of described entolomatoid fungi to the world (<1,500 spp.), the recorded species to this biogeographical region roughly represents 18% of the world known diversity. Despite its variety of biomes (Amazon Forest, Atlantic Forest, Pampas, Páramos, among others) and their high diversity and endemism rates, this value can be similar to the Entoloma richness in Europe - 217 spp. - (Noordeloos 1987). Also noteworthy, 100 species were recorded only to the island of Tasmania, South Australia (Noordeloos & Gates 2012), almost the same quantity known for Brazil. The total number of recorded Entolomataceae species in Central and South Americas clearly does not reflect its real diversity but, mainly, the lack of more specific studies in these areas. Brazil and Argentina have, maybe due to their mycological tradition and the past efforts of Rolf Singer and Egon Horak among others, the highest number of records (107 and 80, respectively). Central American countries had lower numbers, but the contributions of Timothy Baroni and colleagues are noteworthy. In contrast, nations as Belize, El Salvador, Equator, Guatemala, Haiti, Honduras, Nicaragua, Paraguay, Peru, Suriname and Uruguay, as well some Caribbean Islands are poorly studied. In most of these countries, agaricologists are virtually inexistent; however, the scarcity of trained professional is not only a regional problem, but a worldwide phenomenon. Therefore, the list below (Table 1) is the result of our preliminary knowledge on Entolomataceae fungi in the the region of interest.

Box 9514, 2300 RA Leiden, The Netherlands 2Dorfstrasse 27, D-07751 Jena, Germany Abstract — Clitopilus byssisedoides is described as a new species found in a hothouse in Botanischer Garten Jena, in Jena, Germany, of unknown, possibly tropical origin. In this study, it is described, illustrated and distinguished from other pleurotoid Clitopilus species with rhodocyboid spores, particularly from other members of (Rhodocybe) sect. Claudopodes Key words — Entolomataceae, phylogeny, taxonomy Introduction Gminder (2005) described a remarkable pleurotoid species with rhodocyboid spores from a hothouse in the botanical garden in Jena, Germany. It was provisionally called “Rhodocybe byssisedoides” because of its resemblance to Entoloma byssisedum (Pers.) Donk. In a recent molecular phylogenetic study of the Entolomataceae (where this new species was included as “Rhodocybe sp.”), it has been shown that Clitopilus is nested within Rhodocybe. As a result, both genera were merged into Clitopilus sensu lato (Co-David et al. 2009). In this study, we formally describe the new species, Clitopilus byssisedoides and compare it to the other pleurotoid taxa. Material and methods The morphology was studied on dried material with standard methods, using sections mounted in either ammonia 5% or Congo red and a Leica DM1000 microscope. Microscopic structures were drawn with help of a drawing tube. 226 ... Noordeloos, Co-David & Gminder Taxonomic description Clitopilus byssisedoides Gminder, Noordel. & Co-David, sp. nov.

  • Basidiomycota: Agaricales) Introducing the Ant-Associated Genus Myrmecopterula Gen
    Leal-Dutra et al. IMA Fungus (2020) 11:2 https://doi.org/10.1186/s43008-019-0022-6 IMA Fungus RESEARCH Open Access Reclassification of Pterulaceae Corner (Basidiomycota: Agaricales) introducing the ant-associated genus Myrmecopterula gen. nov., Phaeopterula Henn. and the corticioid Radulomycetaceae fam. nov. Caio A. Leal-Dutra1,5, Gareth W. Griffith1* , Maria Alice Neves2, David J. McLaughlin3, Esther G. McLaughlin3, Lina A. Clasen1 and Bryn T. M. Dentinger4 Abstract Pterulaceae was formally proposed to group six coralloid and dimitic genera: Actiniceps (=Dimorphocystis), Allantula, Deflexula, Parapterulicium, Pterula, and Pterulicium. Recent molecular studies have shown that some of the characters currently used in Pterulaceae do not distinguish the genera. Actiniceps and Parapterulicium have been removed, and a few other resupinate genera were added to the family. However, none of these studies intended to investigate the relationship between Pterulaceae genera. In this study, we generated 278 sequences from both newly collected and fungarium samples. Phylogenetic analyses supported with morphological data allowed a reclassification of Pterulaceae where we propose the introduction of Myrmecopterula gen. nov. and Radulomycetaceae fam. nov., the reintroduction of Phaeopterula, the synonymisation of Deflexula in Pterulicium, and 53 new combinations. Pterula is rendered polyphyletic requiring a reclassification; thus, it is split into Pterula, Myrmecopterula gen. nov., Pterulicium and Phaeopterula. Deflexula is recovered as paraphyletic alongside several Pterula species and Pterulicium, and is sunk into the latter genus. Phaeopterula is reintroduced to accommodate species with darker basidiomes. The neotropical Myrmecopterula gen. nov. forms a distinct clade adjacent to Pterula, and most members of this clade are associated with active or inactive attine ant nests.

    Journal of the Lundy Field Society, 2, 2010 LUNDY FUNGI: FURTHER SURVEYS 2004-2008 by JOHN N. HEDGER1, J. DAVID GEORGE2, GARETH W. GRIFFITH3, DILUKA PEIRIS1 1School of Life Sciences, University of Westminster, 115 New Cavendish Street, London, W1M 8JS 2Natural History Museum, Cromwell Road, London, SW7 5BD 3Institute of Biological Environmental and Rural Sciences, University of Aberystwyth, SY23 3DD Corresponding author, e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT The results of four five-day field surveys of fungi carried out yearly on Lundy from 2004-08 are reported and the results compared with the previous survey by ourselves in 2003 and to records made prior to 2003 by members of the LFS. 240 taxa were identified of which 159 appear to be new records for the island. Seasonal distribution, habitat and resource preferences are discussed. Keywords: Fungi, ecology, biodiversity, conservation, grassland INTRODUCTION Hedger & George (2004) published a list of 108 taxa of fungi found on Lundy during a five-day survey carried out in October 2003. They also included in this paper the records of 95 species of fungi made from 1970 onwards, mostly abstracted from the Annual Reports of the Lundy Field Society, and found that their own survey had added 70 additional records, giving a total of 156 taxa. They concluded that further surveys would undoubtedly add to the database, especially since the autumn of 2003 had been exceptionally dry, and as a consequence the fruiting of the larger fleshy fungi on Lundy, especially the grassland species, had been very poor, resulting in under-recording. Further five-day surveys were therefore carried out each year from 2004-08, three in the autumn, 8-12 November 2004, 4-9 November 2007, 3-11 November 2008, one in winter, 23-27 January 2006 and one in spring, 9-16 April 2005.

Mehl1 1Department of Biological Sciences, Humboldt State University Arcata, CA 95521, USA. 2Department of Plant Pathology and Crop Physiology Louisiana State University Agricultural Center Baton Rouge, LA 70803, USA Abstract — Craterellus excelsus (Cantharellaceae, Cantharellales, Basidiomycota) is described from the Pakaraima Mountains of Guyana, where it occurs in rain forests dominated by ectomycorrhizal Dicymbe spp. (Caesalpiniaceae). Craterellus excelsus is noteworthy for its tall (up to 150 mm), persistent, abundant basidiomata that develop in large caespitose clusters. Macromorphological, micromorphological, and habitat data are provided for the new species. Keywords — monodominant forest, tropical fungi, taxonomy, Guiana Shield Introduction In the primary rain forests of Guyana’s Pakaraima Mountains, species of Craterellus and Cantharellus (Cantharellaceae, Cantharellales, Basidiomycota) are conspicuous components of the macromycota associated with ectomycorrhizal (EM) canopy trees of the genus Dicymbe (Caesalpiniaceae, tribe Amherstieae) (Henkel et al. 2002, 2004). Taxa from the Cantharellales occurring in these forests include Cantharellus guyanensis, C. atratus, C. pleurotoides, three undescribed species of Craterellus, and >15 Clavulina species, a number of which remain undescribed (Thacker & Henkel 2004, Henkel et al. 2005, 2006). Here we describe Craterellus excelsus as a distinct new species based on its grey- brown, persistent basidiomata that are regularly >100 mm tall and occur in large caespitose clusters, and its long basidia of variable lengths (75−101 μm) with varying numbers of sterigmata (2−6). Materials and methods Collections were made during the May–July rainy seasons of 2000–2004 from the Upper Potaro River Basin, within a 5 km radius of a permanent base camp *Corresponding author E-mail: [email protected] 202 ..

  • Molecular Phylogeny and Spore Evolution of Entolomataceae
    Persoonia 23, 2009: 147–176 www.persoonia.org RESEARCH ARTICLE doi:10.3767/003158509X480944 Molecular phylogeny and spore evolution of Entolomataceae D. Co-David1, D. Langeveld1, M.E. Noordeloos1 Key words Abstract The phylogeny of the Entolomataceae was reconstructed using three loci (RPB2, LSU and mtSSU) and, in conjunction with spore morphology (using SEM and TEM), was used to address four main systematic issues: 1) the Clitopilus monophyly of the Entolomataceae; 2) inter-generic relationships within the Entolomataceae; 3) genus delimitation Entoloma of Entolomataceae; and 4) spore evolution in the Entolomataceae. Results confirm that the Entolomataceae (Ento­ Entolomataceae loma, Rhodocybe, Clitopilus, Richoniella and Rhodogaster) is monophyletic and that the combination of pinkish Rhodocybe spore prints and spores having bumps and/or ridges formed by an epicorium is a synapomorphy for the family. Rhodogaster The Entolomataceae is made up of two sister clades: one with Clitopilus nested within Rhodocybe and another Richoniella with Richoniella and Rhodogaster nested within Entoloma. Entoloma is best retained as one genus. The smaller spore evolution genera within Entoloma s.l. are either polyphyletic or make other genera paraphyletic. Spores of the clitopiloid type are derived from rhodocyboid spores. The ancestral spore type of the Entolomataceae was either rhodocyboid or entolomatoid. Taxonomic and nomenclatural changes are made including merging Rhodocybe into Clitopilus and transferring relevant species into Clitopilus and Entoloma.
