Omphalina Patch Disease' and the Rickenellaceae Scott A AMC 2019 Oral Session 3 [Diversity, Phylogeny & Ecology of Agaricomycotina] 2-O03-3 ‘Omphalina Patch Disease' and the Rickenellaceae Scott A. Redhead, Sahra-Taylor Mullineux Ottawa Research and Development Centre, Agriculture & Agri-Food Canada, Canada Purpose: A condition resulting in vernal patches of stunted or dying cereal crops was called 'Omphalina Patch Disease' (OPD) in England after they were linked to coincidental, co-located basidiomes identified as Omphalina pyxidata. Original OPD vouchers from the 1980-90s were located in the Royal Botanic Gardens, Edinburgh, where they had been sent for identification. These were analysed both molecularly and anatomically to confirm or correct the identification. A recently published 2018 analysis on the biological status of the Hymenochaetales suggested the genus Loreleia be split between two families in two orders. In order to address this question and to resolve the generic placement of the patch fungus, an in-depth investigation was conducted to clarify the taxonomy of agaric genera in the Rickenellaceae. Methods: DNA cloning, followed by screening of the clones using higher resolution gel electrophoresis, and plasmid DNA sequencing were required to resolve the phylogenetic signatures of the old herbarium material and of the type species of Loreleia, L. postii. Results and conclusions: Neither patch disease sample is O. pyxidata (Tricholomataceae, Agaricales). Both were conspecific with each other; a species of agaric in the Rickenellaceae (Hymenochaetales). We determined that Loreleia is not split between two families and orders and that a misdetermined voucher had led to an erroneous conclusion. Additionally, Contumyces and Loreleia remain phylogenetically distinct but both require new circumscriptions. Asian Mycological Congress 2019.

To date, three species of the genus Cotylidia have been identified in the Czech Republic: C. muscigena, C. pannosa, and C. undulata. The occurrence of Cotylidia undulata in the Czech Re- public was already confirmed and a new locality is published here. The other two species are newly re- ported from the Czech Republic. The remaining two European Cotylidia species are not yet known from the area studied: C. carpatica and the badly known Mediterranean C. marsicana. Finally one specimen found during the study of herbarium material does not correspond well to any known Euro- pean species. The genus was reviewed based on fresh and herbarium specimens. The species of Cotylidia are described and an identification key is added. All three species are rarely reported fungi.

Among the species, the Agaricales (Basidiomycota), popularly known as mushroom has a reported presence in this continent, but with no monographic account done up to now. In eld trips to Antarctica and especially to the South Shetland Archipelago, we collected specimens during a period of 25 years of study of this order and reviewed specimens from other collections to present a systematic account of the order. e collecting and studying of samples was done according to the usual methods in Agaricales modern taxonomy and the material was deposited in the HCB herbarium. e study of collections permits the recognition of 9 species of Agaricales from the area. Leptoglossum lobatum, L. omnivorum and Simocybe antarctica were collected for the rst time in Elephant Island, Antarctica. Species are illustrated and a dichotomous key is proposed for the easy identi cation.

  • LUNDY FUNGI: FURTHER SURVEYS 2004-2008 by JOHN N
    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.

  • Behaviour in Cultures and Habitat Requirements of Species Within the Genera Loreleia and Rickenella (Agaricales)
    ACTA MYCOLOGICA Dedicated to Professor Alina Skirgiełło Vol. 41 (2): 189-208 on the occasion of her ninety-fifth birthday 2006 Behaviour in cultures and habitat requirements of species within the genera Loreleia and Rickenella (Agaricales) ANDREAS BRESINSKY and ANGELIKA SCHÖTZ Institute of Botany, Regensburg University D-93040 Regensburg, [email protected] Bresinsky A., Schötz A.: Behaviour in cultures and habitat requirements of species within the genera Loreleia and Rickenella (Agaricales). Acta Mycol. 41 (2): 189-208, 2006. The term eco-geogram is introduced for surveying (in logical order) ecological and geographical data connected with fungal species. The database PILZOEK was established for that purpose. Eco-geograms are provided in this paper as an example for data retrieval from PILZOEK concerning the agarics Loreleia marchantiae, L. postii, Rickenella swartzii and R. fibula. The potential degree of endangerment is discussed in regard to habitat requirements. European species of Loreleia are not regarded to be endangered in Central Europe, although the risk to get threatened, because of low frequency of fruit body occurrence and quite a narrow substrate specialization, could be higher than in case of Rickenella fibula and R. swartzii. Cultures of Rickenella fibula, R. swartzii, Loreleia marchantiae (= Gerronema daamsii) and L. postii were investigated in regard to pigment accumulation, chlamydospore formation and some other characters. Key words: eco-geogram, Rickenella, Loreleia, habitats, substrates, cultures, endangerment INTRODUCTION The genera Loreleia and Rickenella emerged taxonomically from the genus Ger- ronema in its broader sense, as it was originally interpreted by Singer 1986. Various contributions to the generic concept brought evidence to the assumption that Ger- ronema in the sense of Singer (1986) represents an artificial assemblage of species.

Abstract: The new corticioid genus and species, Tsugacorticium kenaicum from Alaska, is described. Primarily found on attached, dead, corticate branches of mountain hemlock in the Kenai Peninsula, T. kenaicum is characterized by small, soft, white to yellow basidiomata, thickened subhymenium, much branched dendrohyphidia, and small globose to subglobose basidiospores. Although morphologically similar to Dendrothele (Agaricales) and Dendrocorticium (Corticiales), phylogenetic analyses of the nuclear large subunit ribosomal RNA gene place this taxon in the Rickenellaceae clade in the Hymenochaetales. Tsugacorticium kenaicum is described, illustrated, and compared to morphologically similar and phylogenetically related taxa.
