Miscellanea Mycologica – No 100, June 20ll Abstractor – Anne Andrews JJ Wuilbaut (pp. 4-36) [French] This issue consists almost entirely of good photographs of Mediterranean species of fungus found on a visit to Majorca in the autumn of 2010. A number of habitat shots are included and also three picures of an orchid, Ophrys sp. Stijve T & Sobestiansky G (pp. 37-42) A brief introduction on the nature of myxomycetes is followed by mention of three species Fuligo septica, Enteridium lycoperdpon and Lycogala epidendrum, which can become quite large and are commonly eaten in Mexico. The author wondered if they had any nutritional value and analysed the plasmodia of each and found that the quantity of water, glycogen, sugars, proteins and free amino acids in Fuligo septica was much the same as that of various popular edible fungi but that it contained unusually large amounts of mineral salts, especially of calcium carbonate while the other two species have much smaller amounts. These three species do not contain dangerous concentrations of heavy metals. They were tested for 60 other chemical elements and F. septica was found to have surprisingly high concentrations of Zinc and Magnesium, and also to concentrate Baryum and Strontium. The other two species do not have large concentrationsof these but L. epidendrum concentrates Copper. These concentrations are not a danger to the Mexicans because the myxomycetes only constitute a very small part of their diet. This study serves to emphasise one of the differences between myxomycetes and fungi and provide further justificaton for their belonging to separate kingdoms. Illustrated with colour photos.

Schweizerische Zeitschrift für Pilzkunde Vol. 89, No. 2, 15th April 2011 (in German, some articles also in French & Italian) Abstractor – Ray Tantram Roffler U. (p. 46-47, 49) [also in French p. 48-49, 46-47] Fungus of the month (3) is Otidea mirabilis a very rare species, with only a single record in ‘Swissfungi’ for 2008. It was found on a recently-made hay pile under a large Oak at a woodland edge in September 2010 at the sub-alpine height of 800metres. Macro and micro features (slides examined in water) are described. Size and shape are very variable in this lilac-brown species. Internet searches show records from Tenerife, Italy, the Czech Republic and Spain, on very different substrates. It appears a generalist. Microscopic details of this Swiss collection agree very well with those described for Spain and Italy. A colour plate shows the ascocarps in situ, and line drawings present ascospores, paraphyses, marginal elements, ascus base and excipulum out-growths.(2 refs.) Mordasini E. (p. 53-54, 50-52) [Original Italian p. 50-52] Fungus of the month (4) is Faeberia carbonaria. Stringent anti-fire regulations in Tessin have limited the appearance of fire-site species. A large pile of small branches of Ash, Beech, Oak and Birch was burnt in the autumns of 2004 and 2005. Spring 2007, with its high rainfall and comparatively high temperatures finally gave rise to fungal fruiting of typical bonfire species, including Faeberia carbonaria. This species is described from fresh material collected at the site. Micro features were determined from both fresh material and from exsiccates rehydrated with 5%KOH, and stained with Congo red and Cotton blue. This species grows on fire-sites on chalk and silica. It has undergone many name changes in both genus and species, and 11 synonyms exist. This taxon is the only European member of the genus. It is comparatively easy to determine macroscopically, but its micro features are relatively complex. Two colour plates show fruitbodies in situ. Three colour photomicrographs show spores, cheilocystidia and clamps. (5 refs.) Flammer R. (p. 54-55) [also in French p. 55-56] Periscope 32 investigates more poisoning cases from the literature. 14 typical muscarin- type poisoning cases were notified at the Poison Information Centre, Haifa between 2006-2008, all due to three species of Inocybe. Some atypical symptoms made diagnosis more difficult. (1 ref.) An elderly couple ate a meal of Lycoperdon pyriformi, with only the wife displaying symptoms after a 7-hour latency. Precautionary treatment for Amanita phalloides syndrome was begun due to the long latency, and was discontinued once this possibility was wholly excluded. Individual susceptibility can account for intolerance to L. perlatum and L. pyriformi. A reader questioned the designation of Russula olivacea as toxic in a previous ‘Periscope’. His experience of a group meal which included this species, cooked as part of the official foray, had no ill effects on any of the participants. This was likely to be due both to low concentrations in a mixed mushroom preparation, and sufficiently long cooking time to destroy any toxin in the Russulas. However Russula olivacea should generally be regarded as toxic. Clémençon H. (p. 57) [German] According to B & K vol. 2. no. 405, Polyporus (dendro)umbellatus is parasitic or saprotrophic on deciduous trees, and forms fine black sclerotia, which enclose the fine absorption roots of the trees. Two Japanese researchers have addressed these ambiguities in a study of 2010, and have reached surprising conclusions. All the six sclerotia studied, three from Japan, three from China, were threaded-through by rhizomorphs of an unidentified Armillaria species. They suspect, but could not prove, that Polyporus umbellatus parasitises the Honey fungus. The Honey fungus has not been identified, even using molecular methods, but Armillaria tabescens, A. mellea and A, ostoyae have been excluded. Three Chinese researchers are attempting to determine whether the sclerotium or the fungus itself requires the Honey fungus for its development. These sclerotia play a significant role in Chinese medicine. J. Breitenbach gave the author a comprehensive collection of Polyporus umbellatus sclerotia in 1994. Some of these are threaded through with Honey fungus rhizomorphs, but also by fine roots. These fine roots are difficult to distinguish from the rhizomorphs without microscopic examination. The Japanese Paper does not mention roots, but a 1965 Japanese publication describes how the sclerotia of Japanese Polyporus umbellatus collections were entwined in roots. Several questions remain unanswered! A colour plate shows root penetration in one of the Breitenbach specimens. (3 refs.) Senn-Irlet B. (p. 58-61) Stalked Bovistas surprise not only from their unusual fruitbody construction, but also because they often occur in unlikely sites for macrofungi, including between railway lines, in plasterwork, or in flowerpots. Stalked bovistas can be divided into two groups according to their peristome morphology. The first group, Brumalia , have a drawn-out tube-shaped opening, and are designated also as Tulostomas. The second group has a flat, often fringed opening. Both types occur in Switzerland. Several literature sources are useful for determinations, and a key by Monthoux & Rollin for the Brumalia (1974) is presented, which contains some ambiguities. The most important microscopic character for T. brumale could be the considerably thickened brown septa in its capillitium. However the two other types are very close, and misidentifications occur. A critical checking has taken place in the last few years, using material collected over the whole of Switzerland and concentrating on spore mass measurements. T. brumale clearly showed smaller spore measurements than T.

APK2) were characterized with GCMS/MS. The gas chromatogram was performed with the ethanolic extract of Krishnamoorthy Akkanna the samples. The results revealed the presence of increased levels of 1, 4:3, 6-Dianhydro-α-d- Subbiah glucopyranose (57.77%) in the fresh and oleic acid (56.58%) in the dried fruiting bodies. The other Professor and Head, Department important fatty acid components identified both in fresh and dried milky mushroom samples were of Plant Pathology, Tamil Nadu octadecenoic acid and hexadecanoic acid, which are known for their specific fatty or cucumber like Agricultural University, aroma and flavour. The aroma quality of dried samples differed from that of fresh ones with increased Coimbatore, India levels of n- hexadecenoic acid (peak area - 8.46 %) compared to 0.38% in fresh samples. In addition, α- D-Glucopyranose (18.91%) and ergosterol (5.5%) have been identified in fresh and dried samples respectively. The presence of increased levels of ergosterol indicates the availability of antioxidants and anticancer biomolecules in milky mushroom, which needs further exploration. The presence of α-D- Glucopyranose (trehalose) components reveals the chemo attractive nature of the biopolymers of milky mushroom, which can be utilized to enhance the bioavailability of pharmaceutical or nutraceutical preparations.

Accepted 11 November, 2011 A new genus of Agaricales, Leucocalocybe was erected for a species Tricholoma mongolicum in this study. Leucocalocybe was distinguished from the other genera by a unique combination of macro- and micro-morphological characters, including a tricholomatoid habit, thick and short stem, minutely spiny spores and white spore print. The assignment of the new genus was supported by phylogenetic analyses based on the LSU sequences. The results of molecular analyses demonstrated that the species was clustered in tricholomatoid clade, which formed a distinct lineage. Key words: Agaricales, taxonomy, Tricholoma, tricholomatoid clade. INTRODUCTION The genus Tricholoma (Fr.) Staude is typified by having were re-described. Based on morphological and mole- distinctly emarginate-sinuate lamellae, white or very pale cular analyses, T. mongolicum appears to be aberrant cream spore print, producing smooth thin-walled within Tricholoma and un-subsumable into any of the basidiospores, lacking clamp connections, cheilocystidia extant genera. Accordingly, we proposed to erect a new and pleurocystidia (Singer, 1986). Most species of this genus, Leucocalocybe, to circumscribe the unique genus form obligate ectomycorrhizal associations with combination of features characterizing this fungus and a forest trees, only a few species in the subgenus necessary new combination.

Razaq A, Nawaz R, Khalid AN 2016 – An Asian edible mushroom, Macrocybe gigantea: its distribution and ITS-rDNA based phylogeny. Mycosphere 7(4), 525–530, Doi 10.5943/mycosphere/7/4/11 Abstract An updated phylogeny of Macrocybe, a rare pantropical genus, is presented, and new insights regarding the distribution of M. gigantea are given. At the end of last century, this genus was segregated from Tricholoma on morphological and molecular data yet it is still being treated under Tricholoma. In the phylogenetic analysis based on ITS-rDNA, we observed the monophyletic lineage of Macrocybe from the closely related genera Calocybe and Tricholoma. Six collections of M. gigantea, a syntype, re-collected and sequenced from Pakistan, clustered with Chinese and Indian collections which are available in GenBank under Tricholoma giganteum, an older name. The purpose of this work is to support Macrocybe as a separate genus from Tricholoma and Calocybe using ITS-rDNA based phylogeny. Key words – Calocybe – macro fungi – Siderophilous granulation – Tricholoma Introduction Macrocybe Pegler & Lodge accommodates those tricholomatoid species which have large, fleshy, white, cream to grayish ochraceous, convex, umbonate to depressed basidiomata.

The data presented herein, based on collections made over a period of two years, highlight the importance of macrofungal diversity in Tunisia. A total of 331 sporocarps representing 126 species belonging to 11 orders and 40 families were collected. The most important families were the Agaricaceae (16 species), Russulaceae (15 species), Cortinariaceae (9 species), Tricholomotaceae (9 species) and Amanitaceae (8 species). The results obtained contribute to what is known about macrofungal diversity of Tunisia, which remains understudied. Key words – Aïn Draham – Quercus – sporocarps – taxonomy Introduction Fungi are estimated at 0.8 million to 5.1 million species worldwide (Blackwell 2011). However, less than 5% of species have been described (Hawksworth & Mueller 2005). Fungi occur in almost all habitats, surpassed only by bacteria in their ability to withstand extremes in temperature, availability of water, and limited carbon resources. Fungi have a profound impact on the functioning of global ecosystems (Blackwell et al. 2006). They enhance plant growth and produce valuable biochemicals such as ethanol and various antibiotics.

  • Újabb Adatok Az Alföld Gombavilágához
    Mikológiai Közlemények, Clusiana 46(2): 211–256. (2007) TUDOMÁNYOS DOLGOZATOK RESEARCH ARTICLES ÚJABB ADATOK AZ ALFÖLD GOMBAVILÁGÁHOZ NAGY László1 és GORLICZAI Zsolt2 1Szegedi Tudományegyetem, Mikrobiológiai Tanszék 6726 Szeged, Közép fasor 52; [email protected] 26000 Kecskemét, Petőfi S. u. 12; [email protected] Újabb adatok az Alföld gombavilágához. – A Duna–Tisza közi homokterületeken folyta- tott intenzív gyűjtés eredményeként 2266 nagygomba előfordulási adatot publikálunk. Ezek (korábbi adatainkkal együtt) 807 taxonra vonatkoznak, beleértve 331 olyan taxont, melyet ko- rábban még nem publikáltak az Alföldről és további 142 taxont, melyek Magyarországra újak. Röviden összefoglaljuk az Alföld mikológiai térképezésének jelenlegi állását, és jövő- beni terveket fogalmazunk meg az eddig alig kutatott csoportokra vonatkozóan. Further data to the knowledge of the fungi of the Great Hungarian Plain. – As a result of intensive collecting activity on the sandy areas of the Danube–Tisza interfluve 2266 new records of higher fungi are reported. The species list comprises 807 taxa (including our for- merly published records), of which 331 is reported for the first time from the studied area. 142 taxa are new for Hungary. The authors briefly summarise the results of the mycological exploration of the area and make proposal for further research of the presently less explored groups of fungi. Kulcsszavak: Alföld, előfordulási adatok, Magyarország, nagygombák Key words: Great Hungarian Plain, Hungary, macrofungi, occurrence data BEVEZETÉS Két évvel az Alföld gombavilágát taglaló első cikk megjelenése után szükséges- nek érezzük, hogy a közölt fajlistát frissítsük az, azóta gyűjtött vagy esetleg már meglévő, de meghatározatlan anyagokkal. Mint azt már számos korábbi publikáció (BABOS 1973, 1979, 1980, 1989, 1999, NAGY 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, RIMÓCZI 1993, 1994) is bizonyítja, az Alföld hazánkon belül igen különleges és értékes nagy- gombavilággal rendelkezik, melyet érdemes és szükséges kutatni.
