Six phylogenetic species were recognized among the stud- ied collections. In this paper, Psilocybe ruliensis is introduced as a new species, while Psilocybe keralensis is new to China, P. aff. fasciata is new to Yunnan and P. chuxiongensis is recollected in Yunnan Province. The remaining two phylogenetic species are not described or detailed due to the paucity of the material. The four species appear to be endemic to Asia. Key words: basidiomycota, hallucinogenic, taxonomy Introduction The genus Psilocybe sensu lato (sensu Guzmán 1983, 1995) includes the genus Deconica. The name Psilocybe was recently conserved with P. semilanceata (Fr.) P. Kumm. (1871:71) as the conserved type (Redhead et al. 2007), and Psilocybe is now applied to the clade of psychotropic species: Psilocybe sensu stricto (Ramírez-Cruz et al. 2013). However, Psilocybe fuscofulva Peck (1887:7) [formerly known as P. atrobrunnea (Lasch) Gillet (1878:586)] probably does not produce psychotropic alkaloids (Borovička et al. 2015). Eleven species of Psilocybe have been reported from China (Ma et al. 2014, Li et al. 2014, Wang & Tzean 2015) and among these species, P. chuxiongensis T. Ma & K.D. Hyde (2014:213), P. cinnamomea J.F. Liang, Yang K. Li & Ye Yuan (2014:216) and P. angulospora Wang & Tzean (2015:165) were originally described from China. Psilocybe taiwanensis Zhu L. Yang & Guzmán (2010: 185) was described from Taiwan (Guzmán & Yang 2010), but Guzmán et al. (2013) considered it with P. argentipes K. Yokoy (1976: 349) and P. thaizapoteca Guzmán, Karun. & Ram.-Guill. (2012:77) to be a synonym of P. subcaerulipes Hongo (1958:44). Psilocybe chuxiongensis was described from Yunnan Province in southwest China. In this study five phylogenetic species besides P. chuxiongensis were recognized among the studied collections. One of them is described as Psilocybe ruliensis sp. nov. based on evidences from morphology and ITS and LSU sequence data analyses. Psilocybe keralensis K.A. Thomas, Manim. & Guzmán (2002:196) is new to China and P. aff. fasciata Hongo (1957:144) is new to Yunnan Province. The other two phylogenetic species are not described due to inadequate materials and are not detailed further. Materials and Methods Sampling and morphological study Macro-morphological features are described based on detailed field notes made from fresh material and documented by photographs. Materials were dried using an electric food drier and specimens were deposited in the herbarium of the International Fungal Research and Development Centre (IFRDC), Research Institute of Resource Insects, Chinese Academy of Forestry. Facesoffungi and Index Fungorum numbers are registered (Jayasiri et al. 2015, Index Fungorum 2016). Colour designations (e.g. 4A5) are from Kornerup and Wanscher (1981). Microscopic features are described Accepted by Samantha Karunarathna: 25 Oct. 2016; published: 16 Nov. 2016 181 from dried material mounted in 5% KOH, Congo red, or water, measured and illustrated under a compound microscope (Nikon 80i). For terminology and methodology for descriptions see Ma et al. (2014). DNA extraction, PCR, Sequencing and phylogenetic analyses DNA extraction, PCR, sequencing and sequence alignment were followed Ma et al. (2014) and referenced therein. Phylogenetic analyses were conducted based on two nuclear genes (nrLSU and ITS). Sequences newly generated were aligned with selected reference sequences from GenBank. Seven reference taxa from GenBank lacked nrLSU and three lacked ITS sequence data, but were also included in this dataset and omissions were treated as missing data. Most of the reference sequences used are from the studies of Borovička et al. (2011, 2015) and Ramírez-Cruz et al. (2013). Species from the genera Stropharia were used as outgroup taxa, based on former studies (Moncalvo et al. 2002, Matheny et al. 2006). The combined nuclear dataset (LSU and ITS) was analysed using RAxML 7.2.6 (Stamatakis 2006) and MrBayes v3.1.2 (Huelsenbeck & Ronquist 2005), respectively. ML trees were inferred by running 1000 replicates combined with a ML+Rapid bootstrap. Bayesian inference (BI) best-fit models were determined by Akaike Information Criterion (AIC) in Modeltest Version 2.3 (Posada & Crandall 1998), and GTR+I+G model was suggested as the substitution model for each of the two nuclear regions and the combined dataset. BI analyses using six chains were run for 1 000 000 generations and trees sampled every 100th generation. The first 25% (2500) of samples were discarded as burn-in. Node support was estimated as posterior probabilities (pp) from the remaining trees. Clades receiving ML Bootstrap values (BS)>70% and BI pp>0.95 were considered to be significantly supported. Tree visualization and drawing were carried out with TreeView version 1.5.2 (Page 1996). Results Molecular studies Twenty-four new sequences (12 for ITS and LSU) were generated from twelve specimens of the seven species (Table 1) and are deposited in GenBank. The combined LSU+ITS dataset consisted of 69 taxa representing 44 species and 1375 nucleotide sites were included in the final alignment matrix. For this dataset, RAxML and BI analysis yielded nearly identical tree topologies and only the tree inferred from BI analysis is shown for the datasets. Phylogenetic trees generated showed that the samples collected from Yunnan grouped into six lineages which including P. chuxiongensis. Two lineages corresponded to P. fasciata and P. keralensis. Psilocybe aff. fasciata from Yunnan and P. fasciata from Japan clustered together with 83% RAxML BS support, but with a relatively low BI pp value. Four collections of P. keralensis from three sites in Yunnan clustered together although with relatively low support. Psilocybe ruiliensis, a novel species described in the present paper, with three samples from the same site, formed an independent clade with strong support (RAxML BS=100%, PP=1.00), and had a sister relationship with P. samuiensis (RAxML BS=79%, PP=0.80). The remaining species had limited material and are tentatively named Psilocybe spp. 1 and 2. Psilocybe sp. 1 formed a monophyletic clade, but with little support, and is related with P. keralensis, P. antioquiensis, P. zapotecorum, P. thaizapoteca and P. argentipes. Psilocybe sp. 2 and P. stuntzii formed a group with 78% RAxML BS and 0.92 Bayesian PP support (Fig. 1). TABLE 1. New sequences generated in this study GenBank accession Species name Voucher Coll.

  • 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.

  • The Hallucinogenic Mushrooms: Diversity, Traditions, Use and Abuse with Special Reference to the Genus Psilocybe
    11 The Hallucinogenic Mushrooms: Diversity, Traditions, Use and Abuse with Special Reference to the Genus Psilocybe Gastón Guzmán Instituto de Ecologia, Km 2.5 carretera antigua a Coatepec No. 351 Congregación El Haya, Apartado postal 63, Xalapa, Veracruz 91070, Mexico E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The traditions, uses and abuses, and studies of hallucinogenic mush- rooms, mostly species of Psilocybe, are reviewed and critically analyzed. Amanita muscaria seems to be the oldest hallucinogenic mushroom used by man, although the first hallucinogenic substance, LSD, was isolated from ergot, Claviceps purpurea. Amanita muscaria is still used in North Eastern Siberia and by some North American Indians. In the past, some Mexican Indians, as well as Guatemalan Indians possibly used A. muscaria. Psilocybe has more than 150 hallucinogenic species throughout the world, but they are used in traditional ways only in Mexico and New Guinea. Some evidence suggests that a primitive tribe in the Sahara used Psilocybe in religions ceremonies centuries before Christ. New ethnomycological observations in Mexico are also described. INTRODUCTION After hallucinogenic mushrooms were discovered in Mexico in 1956-1958 by Mr. and Mrs. Wasson and Heim (Heim, 1956; Heim and Wasson, 1958; Wasson, 1957; Wasson and Wasson, 1957) and Singer and Smith (1958), a lot of attention has been devoted to them, and many publications have 257 flooded the literature (e.g. Singer, 1958a, b, 1978; Gray, 1973; Schultes, 1976; Oss and Oeric, 1976; Pollock, 1977; Ott and Bigwood, 1978; Wasson, 1980; Ammirati et al., 1985; Stamets, 1996). However, not all the fungi reported really have hallucinogenic properties, because several of them were listed by erroneous interpretation of information given by the ethnic groups originally interviewed or by the bibliography.

Aus Auslralasien (Papua New Guinea, Neu Kaledonien und Neu Seeland) werden 6 neue Arten von Psilocybe (P. brunneo- cystidiata, P. nothofagensis, P. papuana, P. inconspicua, P. neocaledonica and P. novae-zelandiae) beschrieben. Zudem wird die systematische Stellung dieser Taxa bezüglich P. montana, P. caerulescens, P. mammillata, P. yungensis und anderer von GUZMÄN in den tropischen Wäldern von Mexiko gefundenen Psilocybe-Arten diskutiert. Between 1967 and 1977 one of the authors (HORAK) made several collections of Psilocybe in Papua New Guinea, New Caledonia and New Zealand. After studying the material it was surprising to note that all fungi collected do represent new species. This fact may indicate the high grade of endemism of the fungus flora on the Australasian Islands. Nevertheless, the new taxa described have interesting taxo- nomic relationships with species known from tropical America and temperate Eurasia. These connections are discussed in the text. Concerning Psilocybe only three records are published so far from the before mentioned Australasian region: 1.

The effects of forest management practices on a plantation of willow (Salix) and poplar (Populus) over Agaricomycetes basidiomes biodiversity were studied for one year in an island located in Paraná Delta, Argentina. Dry weight and number of basidiomes were measured. We found 28 species belonging to Agaricomycetes: 26 species of Agaricales, one species of Polyporales and one species of Russulales.

  • Psilocybin Mushrooms Fact Sheet
    Psilocybin Mushrooms Fact Sheet January 2017 What are psilocybin, or “magic,” mushrooms? For the next two decades thousands of doses of psilocybin were administered in clinical experiments.

(2010): Epitypification of Naucoria bohemica (Agaricales, Hymenogastraceae). – Czech Mycol. 62(1): 33–42. The holotype of Naucoria bohemica Velen. has been revised. This collection corresponds to the most frequent interpretation of the taxon in modern literature. Since the condition of the material is not sufficient to determine microscopic and molecular characters, the authors designate a well-docu- mented collection from the same area (central Bohemia) and corresponding in all aspects with the holotype as an epitype. Description and illustrations are provided for both collections. Key words: Basidiomycota, Alnicola bohemica, taxonomy, typification. Moreau P.-A. a Borovička J.

Tato položka odpovídá nejčastější inter- pretaci tohoto taxonu v moderní literatuře, avšak není v dostatečně dobrém stavu pro mikroskopické a molekulární studium. Autoři proto stanovují jako epityp dobře dokumentovaný sběr pocházející ze stejné oblasti (střední Čechy), který ve všech aspektech odpovídá holotypu. Obě položky jsou dokumentovány popisem a vyobrazením. INTRODUCTION Naucoria bohemica Velen., a species belonging to a small group of ectomyco- rrhizal naucorioid fungi devoid of clamp connections [currently classified in the genus Alnicola Kühner, or alternatively Naucoria (Fr.: Fr.)
