The first report of Panaeolus from Thailand was that of Rostrup (1902), wherein G. Massee described as new P. albellus Massee, based on material collected on buffalo dung. He noted the species was allied with P. campanulatus (L.) Quél., but differing in adnate lamellae and larger basidiospores (ellipsoid, 20 × 10 µm). Apparently, the taxon has been overlooked and not treated since, remaining a nomen dubium. In the same publication, Massee reported P. campanulatus (= P.

Box 899, Los Altos, California 94022 and DALE THOMASLESLIE 104 Whitney Avenue, Los Gatos, California 95030 and GAST6N GUZMAN Escuela Nacional de Ciencias Biologicas, l.P.N. Apartado Postal 26-378, Mexico 4. D.F. ABSTRACT.--Sixty collections of ten species referred to three families of the Agaricales have been analyzed for the presence of baeocystin by thin-layer chro- matography. Baeocystin was detected in collections of Peilocy be, Conocy be, and Panaeolus from the U.S.A., Canada, Mexico, and Peru. Laboratory cultivated fruit- bodies of Psilocybe cubensis, P. sernilanceata, and P. cyanescens were also studied. Intra-species variation in the presence and decay rate of baeocystin, psilocybin, and psilocin are discussed in terms of age and storage factors. In addition, evidence is presented to support the presence of 4-hydroxytryptamine in collections of P. baeo- cystis and P. cyanescens. The possible significance of baeocystin and 4·hydroxy- tryptamine in the biosynthesis of psilocybin in these organisms is discussed. A recent report (1) described the isolation of baeocystin [4-phosphoryloxy-3- (2-methylaminoethyl)indole] from collections of Psilocy be semilanceata (Fr.) Kummer. Previously, baeocystin had been detected only in Psilocybe baeo- cystis Singer and Smith (2, 3). This report now describes some further obser- vations regarding the occurrence of baeocystin in species referred to three families of Agaricales. Stein, Closs, and Gabel (4) isolated a compound from an agaric that they described as Panaeolus venenosus Murr., a species which is now considered synonomous with Panaeolus subbaIteatus (Berk. and Br.) Sacco (5, 6).

    Checklist of the Argentine Agaricales 2. Coprinaceae and Strophariaceae 1 2* N. NIVEIRO & E. ALBERTÓ 1Instituto de Botánica del Nordeste (UNNE-CONICET). Sargento Cabral 2131, CC 209 Corrientes Capital, CP 3400, Argentina 2Instituto de Investigaciones Biotecnológicas (UNSAM-CONICET) Intendente Marino Km 8.200, Chascomús, Buenos Aires, CP 7130, Argentina *CORRESPONDENCE TO: [email protected] ABSTRACT—A checklist of species belonging to the families Coprinaceae and Strophariaceae was made for Argentina. The list includes all species published till year 2011. Twenty-one genera and 251 species were recorded, 121 species from the family Coprinaceae and 130 from Strophariaceae. KEY WORDS—Agaricomycetes, Coprinus, Psathyrella, Psilocybe, Stropharia Introduction This is the second checklist of the Argentine Agaricales. Previous one considered the families Amanitaceae, Pluteaceae and Hygrophoraceae (Niveiro & Albertó, 2012). Argentina is located in southern South America, between 21° and 55° S and 53° and 73° W, covering 3.7 million of km². Due to the large size of the country, Argentina has a wide variety of climates (Niveiro & Albertó, 2012). The incidence of moist winds coming from the oceans, the Atlantic in the north and the Pacific in the south, together with different soil types, make possible the existence of many types of vegetation adapted to different climatic conditions (Brown et al., 2006). Mycologists who studied the Agaricales from Argentina during the last century were reviewed by Niveiro & Albertó (2012). It is considered that the knowledge of the group is still incomplete, since many geographic areas in Argentina have not been studied as yet. The checklist provided here establishes a baseline of knowledge about the diversity of species described from Coprinaceae and Strophariaceae families in Argentina, and serves as a resource for future studies of mushroom biodiversity.

  • An Adventive Panaeolus Antillarum in Poland (Basidiomycota, Agaricales) with Notes on Its Taxonomy, Geographical Distribution, and Ecology
    Cryptogamie, Mycologie, 2014, 35 (1): 3-22 © 2014 Adac. Tous droits réservés An adventive Panaeolus antillarum in Poland (Basidiomycota, Agaricales) with notes on its taxonomy, geographical distribution, and ecology Marek HALAMAa, Danuta WITKOWSKAb, Izabela JASICKA-MISIAKb & Anna POLIWODAb aMuseum of Natural History, University of Wrocaw, ul. Sienkiewicza 21, 50-335 Wrocaw, Poland bFaculty of Chemistry, Opole University, pl. Kopernika 11, 45-040 Opole, Poland Abstract – Coprophilous fungus, Panaeolus antillarum rarely recorded in Europe, is reported here for the first time from the Augustów Plane, north-eastern Poland. This thermophilic species was found outdoors in August on horse dung mixed with straw. A chemical analysis did not confirm the presence of the psychoactive alkaloids in collected material. A complete description and illustration of the species based on Polish specimens are presented and notes on its taxonomy, ecology, world distribution and comparison with similar taxa – P. semiovatus var. semiovatus, P. semiovatus var. phalaenarum, and others are also provided. Anellaria antillarum / coprophilous mushrooms / GC-MS / Polish mycobiota INTRODUCTION The genus Panaeolus (Fr.) Quél. of the family Psathyrellaceae is characterized by small to rather medium sized basidiomata with usually coprophilous or nitrophilous habitat. According to Kirk et al. (2008) it is represented by ca. 15 species. However, Gerhardt (1996) mentions 27 species of the genus worldwide. Depending on the systematic treatment, hitherto 13-16 species of Panaeolus have been found in Europe (Gerhardt, 1996; Pegler & Henrici, 1998; Senn-Irlet et al., 1999; Ludwig, 2001b). In Poland 9 species of this genus have been found until now: P. acuminatus (Schaeff.) Gillet, P. alcis M.M.

  • Occurrence of Coprophilous Agaricales in Italy, New Records, and Comparisons with Their European and Extraeuropean Distribution
    Mycosphere Occurrence of coprophilous Agaricales in Italy, new records, and comparisons with their European and extraeuropean distribution Doveri F* Via Baciocchi 9, I-57126-Livorno [email protected] Doveri F 2010 – Occurrence of coprophilous Agaricales in Italy, new records, and comparisons with their European and extraeuropean distribution Mycosphere 1(2), 103–140. This work is the successor to a recent monograph on coprophilous ascomycetes and basidiomycetes from Italy. All Italian identifications of coprophilous Agaricales, which the author has personally studied over an 18 year period, are listed and categorized depending on the dung source. All collections were subjected to the same procedure and incubated in damp chambers and an estimate of occurrence of fungal species on various dung types is made. A second collection of Coprinus doverii is described and discussed, while the southern most finding of Panaeolus alcis is listed. An additional collection of Psilocybe subcoprophila, a species previously reported from Italy, is described and illustrated with colour photomicrographs. The morphological features of each species is briefly described, and substrate preferences compared with those reported from previous data. Key words – Coprinus doverii – damp chambers – fimicolous basidiomycetes – frequency – natural state – Panaeolus alcis – Psilocybe subcoprophila – survey.
