A wood in spring or summer is as different from itself in winter as a man-of-war at a royal review to the same ship cleared 10 Notes on Winter Botany. for action in time of battle. The whole process by which leaves, useless twigs, and all sorts of herbaceous material is broken up and overcome before the next spring's vigorous growth begins, is of extraordinary interest. The formation of cork and the leaf fall are well known, but the destruction of all those many her- baceous stems that last but for one season is not so well under- stood. Perhaps the most remarkable point about them is the way in which they survive, often until well on in winter time, just indeed so long as the dead, dry, withered, and yet elastic, stalk can be of use in disseminating the fruits and seeds. When the last spore is shed the destruction of the stalk soon follows. Herbaceous stems consist generally of a ring of woody or collenchymatous mechanical tissue, often raised into ribs or flanges. Outside this there are, successively, first soft parenchyma, and then the tough, more or less thickened epidermis. So soon as the last seeds are definitely formed and separated from the wall of the ovary, the drying of the stalk begins (probably the water is no longer assisted in ascending the stem by the demands of the ripening seeds). Then, as the cells in the upper part of the stalk gradually die, less and less water ascends until they become like those of dried herbarium specimens which may last 100 years or more if kept thoroughly dry and free from certain insects. But the lower part of the stalk just above the ground is kept generally more or less moist by surrounding vegetation: in Umbelliferse also the part just above the node is kept fresh and humid by the remains of the vagina; similar sheathing leaf bases or stipules have the same effect in other plants. It is at these spots that the first fungus attack usually begins. They remind one of the decay of an ordinary paling stob, which usually sets in at the neck. That part of the stob which is in air may be quite sound* and also the basal end planted in the earth, but just at or near the surface of the ground, where the condi- tions frequently change from moist to dry, fungus attacks are favoured and the stob rots through. * The gates of Constantinople destroyed by the Turks in 1453 when eleven centuries old of Cypress (C. sempervirens) in air and the wood of Juniperus oxycedrus, buried in the earth in Malta,, were quite sound after respectively 1100 years and 400 years.—Boulger " Wood," 1902. Notes on Winter Botany. 11 The herbaceous stems are attacked in these moist and sheltered places by such fungi as Heterosphaeria patella, Melanomma, etc. The stalk eventually rots and is easily broken at the base by wind or accidents of sorts. Having been felled, the hollow centre is a neat and cosy refuge for insects and animals, and the whole stalk is soon attacked by a variety of fungi. A favourite position for Sphaerias is the soft tissue out- side the mechanical cylinder, and by their agency the epidermis is soon broken away. As regards the breaking up of leaves, a vast number of fungi attack dead rotting leaves when lying on the soil, but a very large part of the work must be done by animals. A curious fungus is Typhula Grevillei, whose minute club-like fructifica- tions may be found between the leaves and not upright. In such a position the spores must be distributed by worms, insects, or other animals which probably devour the fungus or the leaf substance, and so distribute the spores. But the most interesting facts are those connected with the rotting of tree stumps and the decay of fallen branches and twigs. The first point that one notices is the indestructible character of the cork sheet in which the woody parts are enclosed.

  • A Preliminary Checklist of Arizona Macrofungi
    A PRELIMINARY CHECKLIST OF ARIZONA MACROFUNGI Scott T. Bates School of Life Sciences Arizona State University PO Box 874601 Tempe, AZ 85287-4601 ABSTRACT A checklist of 1290 species of nonlichenized ascomycetaceous, basidiomycetaceous, and zygomycetaceous macrofungi is presented for the state of Arizona. The checklist was compiled from records of Arizona fungi in scientific publications or herbarium databases. Additional records were obtained from a physical search of herbarium specimens in the University of Arizona’s Robert L. Gilbertson Mycological Herbarium and of the author’s personal herbarium. This publication represents the first comprehensive checklist of macrofungi for Arizona. In all probability, the checklist is far from complete as new species await discovery and some of the species listed are in need of taxonomic revision. The data presented here serve as a baseline for future studies related to fungal biodiversity in Arizona and can contribute to state or national inventories of biota. INTRODUCTION Arizona is a state noted for the diversity of its biotic communities (Brown 1994). Boreal forests found at high altitudes, the ‘Sky Islands’ prevalent in the southern parts of the state, and ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa P.& C. Lawson) forests that are widespread in Arizona, all provide rich habitats that sustain numerous species of macrofungi. Even xeric biomes, such as desertscrub and semidesert- grasslands, support a unique mycota, which include rare species such as Itajahya galericulata A. Møller (Long & Stouffer 1943b, Fig. 2c). Although checklists for some groups of fungi present in the state have been published previously (e.g., Gilbertson & Budington 1970, Gilbertson et al. 1974, Gilbertson & Bigelow 1998, Fogel & States 2002), this checklist represents the first comprehensive listing of all macrofungi in the kingdom Eumycota (Fungi) that are known from Arizona.

Kosanić and Branislav R. Ranković University of Kragujevac, Faculty of Science, Department of Biology and Ecology St. Radoje Domanović 12, 34 000 Kragujevac, Republic of Serbia *Corresponding author; E-mail: [email protected] (Received March 29th, 2019; Accepted April 30th, 2019) ABSTRACT. The purpose of this paper was discovering the diversity of macromycetes in the territory of Batočina (Serbia). Field studies, which lasted more than a year, revealed the presence of 200 species of macromycetes. The identified species belong to phyla Basidiomycota (191 species) and Ascomycota (9 species). The biggest number of registered species (100 species) was from the order Agaricales. Among the identified species was one strictly protected – Phallus hadriani and seven protected species: Amanita caesarea, Marasmius oreades, Cantharellus cibarius, Craterellus cornucopia- odes, Tuber aestivum, Russula cyanoxantha and R. virescens; also, several rare and endangered species of Serbia. This paper is a contribution to the knowledge of the diversity of macromycetes not only in the territory of Batočina, but in Serbia, in general. Keywords: Ascomycota, Basidiomycota, Batočina, the diversity of macromycetes. INTRODUCTION Fungi represent one of the most diverse and widespread group of organisms in terrestrial ecosystems, but, despite that fact, their diversity remains highly unexplored. Until recently it was considered that there are 1.6 million species of fungi, from which only something around 100 000 were described (KIRK et al., 2001), while data from 2017 lists 120000 identified species, which is still a slight number (HAWKSWORTH and LÜCKING, 2017).

As a result of field and laboratory studies, 73 species were identified. Seven (7) fungi belong to Pezizomycota and 66 to Agaricomycota. Of these fungi 55 represent new records for Forebalkan floristic region. Two (2) species includes in the Red List of fungi in Bulgaria: Clavicorona pyxidata (Pers. : Fr.) Doty, and Phyllotopsis nidulans (Pers. : Fr.) Singer. This paper presents the most up-to-date and extensive list of lignicolous macrofungi of mountain ridge Lisets, Forebalkan floristic region.

GNARW © 2018 Page | 131 https://www.gnarw.com International Journal of Biological Sciences and Research | IJBSR | Vol. 1, No. 3, p. 131-146, 2018 INTRODUCTION The mountain ridge Lisets is situated in Northern Bulgaria, Western Forebalkan (Bondev, 2002). According to the physical and geographical characteristics is situated within the Stara Planina (Balkan) region (Georgiev, 1985; Yordanova et al., 2002). Climatically the mountain ridge belonds to Temperate-continental climatic Zone (Velev, 2002). The highest points is peaks Kamen Lisets (1073 m) and Cherti grad (1283 m). The study area is covered mainly by natural forest due to the prevailing climatic and edaphic conditions and limited timber extraction.
