  • A First Contribution to the Knowledge of Mycetozoa from Aveyron (France)
    Carnets natures, 2021, vol. 8 : 67-81 A First Contribution to the knowledge of Mycetozoa from Aveyron (France) Jonathan Cazabonne¹, Michel Ferrières² et Jean-Louis Menos³ Abstract A first official taxonomic checklist of myxomycetes from the French department Aveyron is presented. As the result of data collected by the Mycological and Botanical Association of Aveyron (AMBA), literature and online research, a total of 21 species representing 14 genera, 7 families and 5 orders, were recorded. The following information for each taxon was reported: Latin name, author(s), Basionym, locality (if known) and record sources. Macrophotographs of some new records are also appended. This work is a contribution to the knowledge of myxomycetes of Aveyron, which will eventually be integrated into a national checklist project of French myxomycetes. Key words: Biodiversity, inventory, taxonomy, Myxomycetes, Occitanie.

  • Slime Moulds
    Queen’s University Biological Station Species List: Slime Molds The current list has been compiled by Richard Aaron, a naturalist and educator from Toronto, who has been running the Fabulous Fall Fungi workshop at QUBS between 2009 and 2019. Dr. Ivy Schoepf, QUBS Research Coordinator, edited the list in 2020 to include full taxonomy and information regarding species’ status using resources from The Natural Heritage Information Centre (April 2018) and The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species (February 2018); iNaturalist and GBIF. Contact Ivy to report any errors, omissions and/or new sightings. Based on the aforementioned criteria we can expect to find a total of 33 species of slime molds (kingdom: Protozoa, phylum: Mycetozoa) present at QUBS. Species are Figure 1. One of the most commonly encountered reported using their full taxonomy; common slime mold at QUBS is the Dog Vomit Slime Mold (Fuligo septica). Slime molds are unique in the way name and status, based on whether the species is that they do not have cell walls.

  • 9B Taxonomy to Genus
    Fungus and Lichen Genera in the NEMF Database Taxonomic hierarchy: phyllum > class (-etes) > order (-ales) > family (-ceae) > genus. Total number of genera in the database: 526 Anamorphic fungi (see p. 4), which are disseminated by propagules not formed from cells where meiosis has occurred, are presently not grouped by class, order, etc. Most propagules can be referred to as "conidia," but some are derived from unspecialized vegetative mycelium. A significant number are correlated with fungal states that produce spores derived from cells where meiosis has, or is assumed to have, occurred. These are, where known, members of the ascomycetes or basidiomycetes. However, in many cases, they are still undescribed, unrecognized or poorly known. (Explanation paraphrased from "Dictionary of the Fungi, 9th Edition.") Principal authority for this taxonomy is the Dictionary of the Fungi and its online database, www.indexfungorum.org. For lichens, see Lecanoromycetes on p. 3.

  • A Comparative Study of Zoospore Cytoskeleton in Symphytocarpus Impexus, Arcyria Cinerea and Lycogala Epidendrum (Eumycetozoa)
    Protistology 3 (1), 1529 (2003) Protistology A comparative study of zoospore cytoskeleton in Symphytocarpus impexus, Arcyria cinerea and Lycogala epidendrum (Eumycetozoa) Serguei A. Karpov1, Yuri K. Novozhilov2 and Ludmila V. Chistiakova3 1 Biological and Soil Science Faculty of St. Petersburg State University, St. Petersburg, Russia, 2 Komarov Botanical Institute, Russian Academy of Sciences, St. Petersburg, Russia, 3 Biological Research Institute of St. Petersburg State University, St. Petersburg, Russia Summary The ultrastructure of zoospores of the myxogastrids Symphytocarpus impexus B. Ing et Nann.Bremek. (Stemoniida), Arcyria cinerea (Bull.) Pers. (Trichiida), and Lycogala epidendrum (L.) Fr. (Liceida) is reported for the first time, with special reference to flagellar apparatus. The cytoskeleton in all three species includes microtubular and fibrillar rootlets arising from both basal bodies of the flagellar apparatus. There is a similarity in the presence and position of the rootlets N15 between our species and other studied species of myxogastrids and protostelids. Thus, general conservatism of cytoskeletal characters and homology among eumycetozoa have been confirmed for these taxa. At the same time there is variation in the details of flagellar rootlets’ structure in different orders and genera. The differences concern the shape of short striated fibre (SSF) which is an organizing structure for microtubular rootlets r2, r3 and r4. Its upper strand is more prominent in L. epidendrum. The fibrillar part of rootlet 1 is connected to basal body 1 in S. impexus, to basal body 2 in A. cinerea, and to both basal bodies in L. epidendrum. The rootlets r4 and r5 are very conservative and consist, correspondigly, of 7 and 2 microtubules in all three species.

Many species of Phytophthora are destructive pathogens of especially dicotyledonous woody trees, shrubs and herbaceous plants whereas Pythium species attacked primarily monocotyledonous herbaceous plants, whereas some cause diseases in fishes, red algae and mammals including humans. However, several mycoparasitic and entomopathogenic species of Pythium have been utilized respectively, to successfully control other plant pathogenic fungi and harmful insects including mosquitoes while the others utilized to produce valuable chemicals for pharmacy and food industry.
