How Many Species Are There? Folia Cryptog. Estonica. Fasc. 33: 29-33 (1998) How many species are there? James Ginns 1970 Sutherland Road, Pen tic ton, British Columbia, V2A 8T8, Canada Email: [email protected] Abstract: 1\ survey of the Corticioid fungi of North America lists 919 species. This is more than a 100% increase since the 1926 monograph by E. A. Burt. The species are distributed among 165 genera with 126 (76%) genera containing fewer than 6 species. The need for baseline data is noted and the hazards in compiling data from the literature are illustrated and discussed. The numbers of species in various regions of the World arc compared. INTRODUCTION cumulated in two ways. First, by collecting Some systematists are concerned with numbers within the area, see, for example, Parmasto & of specimens, because they are necessary to Parmasto (1997).

Therefore, it seems appropriate cystidia or basidia to accumulate statistically to briefly review the status of the numbers of significant data. And a few systematists are the Corticioid fungi in North America. interested in numbers of species.

Studies in Fungi 5(1), 125–309, Doi 10.5943/sif/5/1/12 Abstract A review of the worldwide corticioid homobasidiomycetes genera is presented. A total of 620 genera are considered with comments on their taxonomy and nomenclature. Of them, about 420 are accepted and keyed out, described in detail with remarks on their taxonomy and systematics. Key words – Corticiaceae – Crust fungi – Diversity – Homobasidiomycetes Introduction Corticioid fungi are a diverse and heterogeneous group of fungi mainly referred to basidiomycete fungi in which basidiomes are generally resupinate. Basidiome construction is often simple, and in most cases, only generative hyphae are found. In more structured basidiomes, those with a reflexed margin or with a pileate surface, more or less sclerified hyphae are usually found. Even the basidiome structure is apparently not very complex, hymenophore configuration should be highly variable finding smooth surfaces or different variations to increase the spore production area such as rugose, tuberculate, aculeate, merulioid, folded, or poroid hymenial surfaces. It is often thought that corticioid fungi produce unattractive and little variable forms and, in most cases, they go unnoticed by most mycologists as ungraceful forms that ‘cover sticks and look like a paint stain’. Although the macroscopic variability compared to other fungi is, but not always, usually limited, under the microscope they surprise with a great diversity of forms of basidia, cystidia, spores and other microscopic elements (Hjortstam et al.

  • The Lichenicolous Fungi Invading Xanthoria Parietina
    Antonia Fleischhacker The lichenicolous fungi invading Xanthoria parietina Magisterarbeit zur Erlangung des akademischen Grades einer Magistra an der Naturwissenschaftlichen Fakultät der Karl-Franzens-Universität Graz Begutachter: Ao.Univ.-Prof. Mag.rer.nat. Dr.phil. Josef Hafellner Institut für Pflanzenwissenschaften Bereich Systematische Botanik und Geobotanik Graz, November 2011 Joy in looking and comprehending is nature's most beautiful gift. (Albert Einstein) Abstract: Fleischhacker Antonia 2011. The lichenicolous fungi invading Xanthoria parietina . Due to nitrogen pollution Xanthoria parietina is a vastly spreading macrolichen at least in Europe. Therefore the thallus surface area available for infection by lichenicolous fungi is dramatically increased. Based mainly on Central European material the diversity of lichenicolous fungi invading either thalli and/or ascomata of X. parietina has been investigated. The aim of the study was to present a comprehensive treatment of the mycoflora living on this host. So far 32 species are known to be able to live on X. parietina , placing this common macrolichen among the lichen species with an astonishingly rich fungus flora. Various fungal orders contribute one to several members to the xanthoriicolous fungus diversity (number of affiliated taxa in brackets): Pleosporales (5), Capnodiales (4), Hypocreales (4), Arthoniales (3), Verrucariales (3), Lecanorales (1), Dothideales (1), Atheliales (1), Tremellales (1), Corticiales (1), Liceales (1) and further anamorphic fungi (7). Five taxa exhibit a narrow host spectrum and appear to be restricted to the Xanthoria parietina group, six species appear to be host-specific at the family level. Fifteen species are obligately lichenicolous fungi with a broad host spectrum, whereas six taxa are facultatively lichenicolous, hence more than 60 percent belong to the omnivorous element.

(2007): Amaurodon mustialaënsis (Basidio- mycetes, Thelephoraceae), new to Slovakia. – Czech Mycol. 59(2): 177–183. The rare species Amaurodon mustialaënsis was collected in the Kopáčsky ostrov Nature Reserve (Dunajské luhy Protected Landscape Area) close to Bratislava – Podunajské Biskupice. The collection is fully described and the taxonomy and variability of related species of Amaurodon are discussed.

(2007): Amaurodon mustialaënsis (Basidiomyce- tes, Thelephoraceae), nový druh slovenské mykoflóry. – Czech Mycol. 59(2): 177–183. Vzácný druh Amaurodon mustialaënsis byl sbírán v přírodní rezervaci Kopáčsky ostrov (Chráně- ná krajinná oblast Dunajské luhy) u Bratislavy – Podunajských Biskupic. Popis nálezu je doplněn po- známkami k taxonomii a variabilitě příbuzných druhů rodu Amaurodon. INTRODUCTION The genus Amaurodon J. Schröt., lately emended by Kõljalg (1996), includes 9 rare and little known species. Members of the genus have arachnoid-pelliculose, bluish grey to yellowish green fruit-bodies with a smooth, hydnoid or poroid hymenophore. Basidia are utriform, spores verruculose, spinose or smooth, the hyphal system is monomitic. Spores and partly also basidia and hyphae stain vio- let-blue in KOH. Amaurodon mustialaënsis, having some characters in common with mem- bers of Corticiaceae s.
