First Record of the Genus Ilyomyces for North America, Parasitizing Stenus Clavicornis
Bulletin of Insectology 66 (2): 269-272, 2013 ISSN 1721-8861 First record of the genus Ilyomyces for North America, parasitizing Stenus clavicornis Danny HAELEWATERS Department of Organismic and Evolutionary Biology, Harvard University, Cambridge, USA Abstract The ectoparasitic fungus Ilyomyces cf. mairei (Ascomycota Laboulbeniales) is reported for the first time outside Europe on the rove beetle Stenus clavicornis (Coleoptera Staphylinidae).

Triebel Abstract: Triebel, D.: Notes on the genus Sagediopsis (Verrucariales, Adelococcaceae). - Sendtnera 1: 273-280. ISSN 0944-0178. Notes on the genus Sagediopsis are given. Sagediopsis dissimilis Triebel is described as a new species and treated in detail. This lichenicolous fungus is confined to the lecideoid lichen Paraporpidia leptocarpa and occurs in Australasia. Sagediopsis is closely related to Adelococcus. Both genera are placed in a new family of the Verrucariales, Adelococcaceae Triebel. The family includes lichenicolous, non-lichenized taxa with persistent interascal filaments. 1. Introduction The order Verrucariales Mattick ex D. Hawksw. & 0. Eriksson includes until now only one family, the Verrucariaceae Zenker, which comprizes mainly lichenized ascortiycetes. It is characterized by globose, mainly clypeate and at least apically dark brown perithecioid ascomata. The hamathecial elements are confined to the ostiolar canal. The asci of the Vernicaria-type are broadly clavate, apically equally thick-walled and have constantly non- amyloid inner wall layers (see ERIKSSON 1981, Hawksworth & ERIKSSON 1986). The hymenial gel and the external ascus wall layer fi-equently turn red in Lugol's iodine solution. The majority of the c. 800 known Verrucarialean taxa develops two-biont lichen associations. Only a few lichenicolous lichens establishing three-biont associations are known (RAMBOLD& Triebel 1992, checklist C). Just recently, some groups of non-lichenized fijngi with lichenicolous, algicolous or hepaticolous life habit were placed in the order Verrucariales. These are the genera Endococcus Nyl., Merismatium Zopf, Muellerella Hepp ex Müll. -

Dissertation Advisor: Professor Donald H. Pfister Danny Haelewaters STUDIES OF THE LABOULBENIOMYCETES: DIVERSITY, EVOLUTION, AND PATTERNS OF SPECIATION ABSTRACT CHAPTER 1: Laboulbeniales is one of the most morphologically and ecologically distinct orders of Ascomycota. These microscopic fungi are characterized by an ectoparasitic lifestyle on arthropods, determinate growth, lack of asexual state, high species richness and intractability to culture. DNA extraction and PCR amplification have proven difficult for multiple reasons. DNA isolation techniques and commercially available kits are tested enabling efficient and rapid genetic analysis of Laboulbeniales fungi. Success rates for the different techniques on different taxa are presented and discussed in the light of difficulties with micromanipulation, preservation techniques and negative results. CHAPTER 2: The class Laboulbeniomycetes comprises biotrophic parasites associated with arthropods and fungi. -
An Evolving Phylogenetically Based Taxonomy of Lichens and Allied Fungi
Opuscula Philolichenum, 11: 4-10. 2012. *pdf available online 3January2012 via (http://sweetgum.nybg.org/philolichenum/) An evolving phylogenetically based taxonomy of lichens and allied fungi 1 BRENDAN P. HODKINSON ABSTRACT. – A taxonomic scheme for lichens and allied fungi that synthesizes scientific knowledge from a variety of sources is presented. The system put forth here is intended both (1) to provide a skeletal outline of the lichens and allied fungi that can be used as a provisional filing and databasing scheme by lichen herbarium/data managers and (2) to announce the online presence of an official taxonomy that will define the scope of the newly formed International Committee for the Nomenclature of Lichens and Allied Fungi (ICNLAF). The online version of the taxonomy presented here will continue to evolve along with our understanding of the organisms. Additionally, the subfamily Fissurinoideae Rivas Plata, Lücking and Lumbsch is elevated to the rank of family as Fissurinaceae. KEYWORDS. – higher-level taxonomy, lichen-forming fungi, lichenized fungi, phylogeny INTRODUCTION Traditionally, lichen herbaria have been arranged alphabetically, a scheme that stands in stark contrast to the phylogenetic scheme used by nearly all vascular plant herbaria. The justification typically given for this practice is that lichen taxonomy is too unstable to establish a reasonable system of classification. However, recent leaps forward in our understanding of the higher-level classification of fungi, driven primarily by the NSF-funded Assembling the Fungal Tree of Life (AFToL) project (Lutzoni et al. 2004), have caused the taxonomy of lichen-forming and allied fungi to increase significantly in stability. This is especially true within the class Lecanoromycetes, the main group of lichen-forming fungi (Miadlikowska et al. -

These are Blasticomyces lispini from Borneo (Indonesia), Cantharomyces orientalis from the Philippines, Dimeromyces rugosus on Leiochrodes sp. from Sumatra (Indonesia), Laboulbenia anoplogenii on Clivina sp. from India, L. cafii on Remus corallicola from Singapore, L. satanas from the Philippines, L. timurensis on Clivina inopaca from Papua New Guinea, Monoicomyces stenusae on Silusa sp. from the Philippines, Ormomyces clivinae on Clivina sp. from India, and Peyritschiella princeps on Philonthus tardus from Lombok (Indonesia). Key words — Ascomycota, insect-associated fungi, morphology, museum collection study, Roland Thaxter, taxonomy Introduction One group of microscopic insect-associated parasitic fungi, the order Laboulbeniales (Ascomycota, Pezizomycotina, Laboulbeniomycetes), is perhaps the most intriguing and yet least studied of all entomogenous fungi. Laboulbeniales are obligate parasites on invertebrate hosts, which include insects (mainly beetles and flies), millipedes, and mites. -

Jaklitsch1,2, A. Gardiennet3, H. Voglmayr2 Key words Abstract Fresh material, type studies and molecular phylogeny were used to clarify phylogenetic relationships of the nine genera Acrocordiella, Blogiascospora, Clypeosphaeria, Hymenopleella, Lepteutypa, Pseudapiospora, Ascomycota Requienella, Seiridium and Strickeria. At first sight, some of these genera do not seem to have much in com- Dothideomycetes mon, but all were found to belong to the Xylariales, based on their generic types. Thus, the most peculiar finding new genus is the phylogenetic affinity of the genera Acrocordiella, Requienella and Strickeria, which had been classified in phylogenetic analysis the Dothideomycetes or Eurotiomycetes, to the Xylariales. Acrocordiella and Requienella are closely related but pyrenomycetes distinct genera of the Requienellaceae. Although their ascospores are similar to those of Lepteutypa, phylogenetic Pyrenulales analyses do not reveal a particularly close relationship. The generic type of Lepteutypa, L. fuckelii, belongs to the Sordariomycetes Amphisphaeriaceae. Lepteutypa sambuci is newly described. Hymenopleella is recognised as phylogenetically Xylariales distinct from Lepteutypa, and Hymenopleella hippophaëicola is proposed as new name for its generic type, Spha eria (= Lepteutypa) hippophaës. Clypeosphaeria uniseptata is combined in Lepteutypa. No asexual morphs have been detected in species of Lepteutypa. Pseudomassaria fallax, unrelated to the generic type, P. chondrospora, is transferred to the new genus Basiseptospora, the genus Pseudapiospora is revived for P. corni, and Pseudomas saria carolinensis is combined in Beltraniella (Beltraniaceae). -
