High Diversity of Fungi Recovered from the Roots of Mature Tanoak (Lithocarpus Densiflorus) in Northern California
1380 High diversity of fungi recovered from the roots of mature tanoak (Lithocarpus densiflorus)in northern California S.E. Bergemann and M. Garbelotto Abstract: We collected mature tanoak (Lithocarpus densiflorus (Hook. & Arn.) Rehder) roots from five stands to charac- terize the relative abundance and taxonomic richness of root-associated fungi. Fungi were identified using polymerase chain reaction (PCR), cloning, and sequencing of internal transcribed spacer (ITS) and 28S rDNA. A total of 382 cloned PCR inserts were successfully sequenced and then classified into 119 taxa. Of these taxa, 82 were basidiomycetes, 33 were ascomycetes, and 4 were zygomycetes. Thirty-one of the ascomycete sequences were identified as Cenococcum geo- philum Fr. with overall richness of 22 ITS types. Other ascomycetes that form mycorrhizal associations were identified in- cluding Wilcoxina and Tuber as well as endophytes such as Lachnum, Cadophora, Phialophora, and Phialocephela. The most abundant mycorrhizal groups were Russulaceae (Lactarius, Macowanites, Russula) and species in the Thelephorales (Bankera, Boletopsis, Hydnellum, Tomentella). Our study demonstrates that tanoak supports a high diversity of ectomycor- rhizal fungi with comparable species richness to that observed in Quercus root communities. Key words: Cenoccocum geophilum, community, dark septate endophytes, ectomycorrhiza, species richness. Re´sume´ : Les auteurs ont pre´leve´ des racines de Lithocarpus densiflorus (Hook. & Arn.)

Blood Mushroom
Bleeding-Tooth Fungus Hydnellum Peckii Genus: Hydnellum Family: Bankeraceae Also known as: Strawberries and Cream Fungus, Bleeding Hydnellum, Red-Juice Tooth, or Devil’s Tooth. If you occasionally enjoy an unusual or weird sight in nature, we have one for you. Bleeding-Tooth Fungus fits this description with its strange colors and textures. This fungus is not toxic, but it is considered inedible because of its extremely bitter taste. Hydnoid species of fungus produce their spores on spines or “teeth”; these are reproductive structures. This fungus “bleeds” bright red droplets down the spines, so that it looks a little like blood against the whitish fungus. This liquid actually has an anticoagulant property similar to the medicine heparin; it keeps human or animal blood from clotting. This fungus turns brown with age. Bloody-Tooth Fungus establishes a relationship with the roots of certain trees, so you will find it lower down on the tree’s trunk. The fungus exchanges the minerals and amino acids it has extracted from the soil with its enzymes, for oxygen and carbon within the host tree that allow the fungus to flourish. It’s a great partnership that benefits both, called symbiosis. The picture above was taken at Kings Corner at the pine trees on the west side of the property. It was taken in early to mid-autumn. This part of the woods is moist enough to grow some really beautiful mushrooms and fungi. Come and see—but don’t touch or destroy. Fungi should be respected for the role they play in the woods ecology. -

Phellodon Secretus (Basidiomycota ), a New Hydnaceous Fungus.From Northern Pine Woodlands
Karstenia 43: 37--44, 2003 Phellodon secretus (Basidiomycota ), a new hydnaceous fungus.from northern pine woodlands TUOMO NIEMELA, JUHA KJNNUNEN, PERTII RENVALL and DMITRY SCHIGEL NIEMELA, T. , KINNUNEN, J. , RENVALL, P. & SCHIGEL, D. 2003: Phellodon secretus (Basidiomycota), a new hydnaceous fungus from northern pine woodlands. Karstenia 43: 37-44. 2003. Phellodon secretus Niemela & Kinnunen (Basidiomycota, Thelephorales) resembles Phellodon connatus (Schultz : Fr.) P. Karst., but differs in havi ng a thinner stipe, cottony soft pileus, and smaller and more globose spores. Its ecology is peculiar: it is found in dry, old-growth pine woodlands, growing in sheltered places under strongly decayed trunks or rootstocks of pine trees, where there is a gap of only a few centim eters between soil and wood. Basidiocarps emerge from humus as needle-like, ca. I mm thick, black stipes, and the pileus unfolds only after the stipe tip has contacted the overhanging wood. In its ecology and distribution the species resembles Hydnellum gracilipes (P. Karst.) P. Karst. It seems to be extremely rare, found in Northern boreal and Middle boreal vegetation zones, in areas with fairly continental climate.

Such dead pine specific environment for fungi. The barren sandy trees may keep standing for another 200-500 soil, spaced stand of trees and scanty lower veg years, losing their bark and thinner branches: in etation result in severe drought during sunny this way the so-called kelo trees develop, com summer months, in particular because such wood mon and characteristic for northern old-growth lands are usually situated on exposed hillsides, pine woodlands. -

MUSHROOMS of the OTTAWA NATIONAL FOREST Compiled By
MUSHROOMS OF THE OTTAWA NATIONAL FOREST Compiled by Dana L. Richter, School of Forest Resources and Environmental Science, Michigan Technological University, Houghton, MI for Ottawa National Forest, Ironwood, MI March, 2011 Introduction There are many thousands of fungi in the Ottawa National Forest filling every possible niche imaginable. A remarkable feature of the fungi is that they are ubiquitous! The mushroom is the large spore-producing structure made by certain fungi. Only a relatively small number of all the fungi in the Ottawa forest ecosystem make mushrooms. Some are distinctive and easily identifiable, while others are cryptic and require microscopic and chemical analyses to accurately name. This is a list of some of the most common and obvious mushrooms that can be found in the Ottawa National Forest, including a few that are uncommon or relatively rare. The mushrooms considered here are within the phyla Ascomycetes – the morel and cup fungi, and Basidiomycetes – the toadstool and shelf-like fungi. There are perhaps 2000 to 3000 mushrooms in the Ottawa, and this is simply a guess, since many species have yet to be discovered or named. This number is based on lists of fungi compiled in areas such as the Huron Mountains of northern Michigan (Richter 2008) and in the state of Wisconsin (Parker 2006). The list contains 227 species from several authoritative sources and from the author’s experience teaching, studying and collecting mushrooms in the northern Great Lakes States for the past thirty years. Although comments on edibility of certain species are given, the author neither endorses nor encourages the eating of wild mushrooms except with extreme caution and with the awareness that some mushrooms may cause life-threatening illness or even death. -
Om Förekomsten Av Hydnellum Cumulatum Och H. Scrobiculatum I Sverige
Svensk Mykologisk Tidskrift 30 (2): 3-8, 2009 SVAMPPRESENTATION Om förekomsten av Hydnellum cumulatum och H. scrobiculatum i Sverige EEF ARNOLDS Abstract On the occurrence of Hydnellum cumulatum and H. scrobiculatum in Sweden. The stipitate hydnoid fungus Hydnellum cumulatum, originally described from Canada, is re- ported as new to Sweden. It was collected in 2007 in two old stands of Picea abies (Tuskö- sundet and Plogmyren) in the coastal region of eastern-central Sweden in the province of Uppland near Östhammar. The species had been found there before and provisionally identified as Hydnellum scrobiculatum. Two other Swedish herbarium collections under the latter name also proved to belong to H. cumulatum. A full description in Swedish and English of that species is provided. The differences between H. scrobiculatum and H. concrescens are discussed. Spore size and ornamentation are the most important discriminating characters, but they are probably also recognisable in the field on differences in pileus surface and smell. More research is needed to confirm this. The conspecificity between European and American collections of H. cumulatum is discussed. The identity of H. scrobiculatum and its oc- currence in Sweden are discussed as well. It is concluded that this taxon may be a phantom species, falling within the variation of H. concrescens, but more research is needed including a renewed study of the neotype collected near Femsjö, Sweden.

Highland Biodiversity Action Plan 2010
HIGHLAND BAP March 2010 Foreword Facal-toisich This Biodiversity Action Plan has been drawn up by Highland Council on behalf of the Highland Biodiversity Partnership. The Partnership is made up of representatives of around 30 local groups and organisations committed to understanding, safeguarding, restoring and celebrating biodiversity within Highland. Our purpose is to provide guidance and support to the existing network of Local Biodiversity Groups, and to make progress on the key strategic biodiversity issues in the Highlands. It is this last point that we hope to address through this Plan. The Plan lists the key issues that have been brought to our attention since the Partnership started in 2005, and proposes a range of future actions or projects that we’d like to undertake in the next three years. We have made progress on nine of the ten strategic issues that were identified in the 2006 Highland BAP. This Plan proposes 24 new projects, each with simple, measurable targets and an identifiable lead partner. It is perhaps fitting that this Plan is being launched in 2010, the International Year of Biodiversity and understandably, a desire to raise awareness building on all the good work undertaken to date features strongly in it. We are of course bound by limits on the budget and resources that our partners can muster in these difficult times, but nonetheless we are confident that we can achieve a lot by working together and planning ahead.

(1996): Notes on two hydnums - Bankera violascens and Sarcodon versipellis. - Czech Mycol. 49: 35-39 This article deals with two questions concerning to hydnaceous fungi. I do not accept the name Bankera cinerea (Bull.: Fr.) Rauschert for Bankera violascens (Alb. et Schw.: Fr.) Pouz. The reason is that Bulliard’s illustration of Hydnum cinereum, on which Rauschert based his combination, in my opinion does not show a species of the genus Bankera. The characters, on which this statement is based, are given. The specimens of Sarcodon balsamiodorus Pouz. in schaedis from herbaria (PRM, BRA) belong, also according to the description of fresh material, to Sarcodon versipellis (Fr.) Quel.
