Bedfordshire County Council Bedfordshire County Council Lowland Wood Pastures And Parkland Survey 1997 Site: Ampthill Park Grid Reference :TL0239 Area: 85 ha Use Of Site: Recreation Public Access: Footpaths. Official Designations: Public Park, English Heritage Grade II (site of special Interest). Conservation Area. Current Condition & Management: Mature trees mostly broad-leaved species occur throughout the park. The trees are generally widely spaced forming open parkland but in some areas they are more dense forming open woodland. There are also some patches of scrub. Unimproved acidic grassland occurs throughout much of Ampthill Park with areas of marsh/marshy grassland and Amenity grassland. Viscum album (Mistletoe ) is present on parkland trees.

Current Condition & Management: Present area of park slopes south from house with Home Wood 400m to North west and a stream flowing roughly north south through the park feeding two pools. The area still contains some parkland trees. The site contains areas of semi-improved neutral grassland, marshy grassland, improved grassland, amenity grassland and arable land. The areas of semi improved grassland have in the past been heavily horse grazed.

August 1995 ISBN 82-90724-14-4 ISSN 0802-4966 A Nomenclatural Study of Armillaria and Armillariella species (Basidiomycotina, Tricholomataceae) by Thomas J. Volk & Harold H. Burdsall, Jr. Synopsis Fungorum 8 Fungiflora - Oslo - Norway 6 Authors address: Center for Forest Mycology Research Forest Products Laboratory United States Department of Agriculture Forest Service One Gifford Pinchot Dr. Madison, WI 53705 USA ABSTRACT Once a taxonomic refugium for nearly any white-spored agaric with an annulus and attached gills, the concept of the genus Armillaria has been clarified with the neotypification of Armillaria mellea (Vahl:Fr.) Kummer and its acceptance as type species of Armillaria (Fr.:Fr.) Staude. Due to recognition of different type species over the years and an extremely variable generic concept, at least 274 species and varieties have been placed in Armillaria (or in Armillariella Karst., its obligate synonym). Only about forty species belong in the genus Armillaria sensu stricto, while the rest can be placed in forty-three other modem genera. This study is based on original descriptions in the literature, as well as studies of type specimens and generic and species concepts by other authors. This publication consists of an alphabetical listing of all epithets used in Armillaria or Armillariella, with their basionyms, currently accepted names, and other obligate and facultative synonyms.

The aim of the seminar was to provide a forum for presenting and discussing the results obtained in the NKS-B pro- gramme during the project period 2002 - 2005. The main attention was focused on radioecology and measurement techniques including presentations on the work done in the Projects INDOFERN (New Indicator Organisms for Environ- mental Radioactivity), LABINCO (Intercomparison of Laboratory Analyses of Ra- dionuclides in Environmental Samples) and ECODOSES (Improving Radiological Assessments of Doses to Humans from Terrestrial Ecosystems). The total num- ber of presentations in the seminar was 27. The seminar was also the final seminar of the four-year INDOFERN Project. The objective of the project was to identify new indicator organisms and biomarkers for assessment of environmental radioactivity in normal and emergency situa- tions. The goal was to search new useful organisms accumulating effectively and specifically certain radionuclides in various Nordic ecosystems (forest, fresh wa- ter, marine), and to compare their indicator value to those of the earlier known indicators. The project yielded new data on the occurrence and transport of ra- dionuclides in a wide scale of Nordic ecosystems. A summary of the whole pro- ject, and summaries of the work done in all the participating laboratories were presented in 13 presentations in the seminar.

The highlight was without doubt the Chris Packam talk at the Avenue Campus on 25th June. A close second to this was the successful bid for funding of several activities through the Awards For All scheme. This funding, which was received in the spring, is being used (amongst other things) to help fund a ladybird survey and two workshops. The first of these two workshops was run at the Testwood Centre on 26th September and the second is (at the time of writing) being planned for the same venue on 12th February 2005. We didn’t neglect our traditional ‘bread and butter’ activities, however. We held twenty-four ‘normal’ Field Meetings and the usual seven Indoor Meetings. Our membership finally exceeded 100 and (at the time of writing) a quick head count revealed that our membership had reached 112.

The first part of the study is based on macromycete specimens collected from the Region in 2002-2005. As a result of field and laboratory studies, 213 species and infraspecific taxa were identified. Further specimens were collected and identified adding 81 species to the list in 2008. During the period of 2007 – 2010 we collected new specimens from the region, visited the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh and compared them with the British collections. During these studies, we identified 128 new species and infraspecific taxa for the region and added them to the list. Currently, the number of species and infraspecific taxa in the list stands at 422. Key words – Fungal diversity, mushrooms, Black Sea Region INTRODUCTION The Black Sea Region extends from the border of Georgia in the east to the eastern edge of the Adapazari plain in the west and covers about 18 percent of the land in Turkey.

  • An Inventory of Fungal Diversity in Ohio Research Thesis Presented In
    An Inventory of Fungal Diversity in Ohio Research Thesis Presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for graduation with research distinction in the undergraduate colleges of The Ohio State University by Django Grootmyers The Ohio State University April 2021 1 ABSTRACT Fungi are a large and diverse group of eukaryotic organisms that play important roles in nutrient cycling in ecosystems worldwide. Fungi are poorly documented compared to plants in Ohio despite 197 years of collecting activity, and an attempt to compile all the species of fungi known from Ohio has not been completed since 1894. This paper compiles the species of fungi currently known from Ohio based on vouchered fungal collections available in digitized form at the Mycology Collections Portal (MyCoPortal) and other online collections databases and new collections by the author. All groups of fungi are treated, including lichens and microfungi. 69,795 total records of Ohio fungi were processed, resulting in a list of 4,865 total species-level taxa. 250 of these taxa are newly reported from Ohio in this work. 229 of the taxa known from Ohio are species that were originally described from Ohio. A number of potentially novel fungal species were discovered over the course of this study and will be described in future publications. The insights gained from this work will be useful in facilitating future research on Ohio fungi, developing more comprehensive and modern guides to Ohio fungi, and beginning to investigate the possibility of fungal conservation in Ohio. INTRODUCTION Fungi are a large and very diverse group of organisms that play a variety of vital roles in natural and agricultural ecosystems: as decomposers (Lindahl, Taylor and Finlay 2002), mycorrhizal partners of plant species (Van Der Heijden et al.
