Over 300 specimens spanning the major areas of boreal and temperate forests of the Northern Hemisphere were studied and nrITS and tef1 were obtained for phylogenetic analyses. In order to stabilize the taxonomy of the group all available type collections were studied and, if possible, sequenced. A total of 26 species occurring in Eurasia and North America were recovered in the phylogenetic analyses. Twelve species are described as new (Pluteus rangifer, P. elaphinus, P. hibbettii, P. eos, P. orestes, P. methvenii, P. shikae, P. kovalenkoi, P. leucoborealis, P. sepiicolor, P. oreibatus, P. atrofibrillosus), one is provisionally named (P. parilis) and one variety is raised to species rank (P. americanus). In many cases separation of the species based on morphology alone is challenging. In general, tef1 distinguishes the species better than nrITS. Structured infraspecific genetic variation was detected in the nrITS phylogenies for five species (P. atromarginatus, P. hibbettii, P. orestes, P. primus and P. shikae) and in the tef1 phylogenies for P. cervinus. Phylogeographic patterns are strikingly different among the species in this group and include widespread Holarctic species, exclusively Palearctic, putative disjuncts and endemics in each Holarctic subregion (Eastern/Western Palearctic and Nearctic). Identification keys are provided for each subregion. Introduction The taxonomy of the genus Pluteus Fr. has recently been revised using molecular phylogenies, which essentially upheld the morphologically recognized sections (Pluteus, Celluloderma Fayod and Hispidoderma Fayod) with minor rearrangements (Justo et al. 2011a, 2011b). Section Pluteus Fr. accommodates the species with metuloid hymenial cystidia and a pileipellis organized as a cutis, and includes the type species of the genus, Pluteus cervinus (Schaeffer) Kummer (1874: 138) or “deer mushroom”. Pluteus cervinus is commonly depicted in popular field guides (e.g. Bessette et al. 1997; Phillips 2010) and websites (e.g. http://mushroomobserver.org/; http:// www.mushroomexpert.com/pluteus_cervinus.html) although it has been suspected for a long time to be a complex of several species (Singer 1956). The questions about the actual number of species in section Pluteus that occur in the Northern Hemisphere, the morphological characters that might be used to separate them and the correct names that should be applied to these taxa have baffled mycologists for decades. Studies on section Pluteus in Europe (Kühner & Romagnesi 1953; Singer 1956; Orton 1986; Bonnard 1986, 1987, 2001;Vellinga 1990) have recognized around thirteen species, with numbers varying depending on taxonomic opinion, and with as many as seven described in the last three decades (Singer 1984; Bonnard 1986, 1987, 1991, 2001; Deparis 2003; Justo & Castro 2007a,b). In North America, section Pluteus has received considerable attention (Murill 1917; Singer 1956; Smith & Stuntz 1958; Banerjee & Sundberg 1993, 1995). A total of 18 species have been reported, again with discrepancies depending on the taxonomic concepts of the different authors. Furthermore, many species names based on European material (P. atromarginatus, P. cervinus, P. pellitus, P. patricius, P. petasatus, P. pouzarianus, P. salicinus) have been applied to North American collections (Banerjee & Sundberg 1995; Rodríguez 2013).

OCCURRENCE OF PSILOCYBIN/ PSILOCIN IN PLUTEUS SALICINUS (PLUTEACEAE) STEPHEN G. SAUPE Department of Botany, University of Illinois, Urbana, Illinois 61801 The development of blue color in a basidiocarp after bruising is a reliable, although not infallible, field character for detecting the pres­ ence of the N-methylated tryptamines, psilocybin and psilocin (1, 2, 8). This color results from the stepwise oxidation of psilocybin to psi­ locin to a blue pigment (3). Pluteus salicinus (Pers. ex Fr.) Kummer (Pluteaceae) has a grey pileus with erect to depressed, blackish, spinu­ lose squamules in the center. It is distinguished from other species in section Pluteus by its bluish to olive-green stipe, the color intensify­ ing with age and bruising (10, 11 ). This study was initiated to deter­ mine if the bluing phenomenon exhibited by this fungus is due to the presence of psilocybin/psilocin. Pluteus salicinus (sgs-230, ILL) was collected on decaying wood in Brownfield Woods, Urbana, Illinois, a mixed mesophytic upland forest. Carpophores were solitary and uncommon. Although Singer (10) reponed that this fungus is common in some areas of North America and Europe, it is rare in Michigan (5).

Facultade de Bioloxía Campus As Lagoas-Marcosende Universidade de Vigo E-36310 Vigo (Spain) Abstract—Species of Pluteus reported from the Iberian Peninsula (Spain, Portugal) and Balearic Islands (Spain) are listed, with data on their distribution, ecology and phenology. For each taxon a list of all collections examined and a map of its distribution is given. According to our revision 33 taxa of Pluteus occur in the area. Key words—Pluteaceae, biodiversity Introduction Pluteus Fr. is the type genus of the family Pluteaceae Kotl. & Pouzar (Agaricales, Basidiomycota). Its main characteristics are the pluteoid basidiomes (i.e. free lamellae; context of pileus and stipe discontinuous), pink spores and inverse lamellae trama. It comprises about 300 species (Kirk et al. 2001) and is distributed in all continents except Antarctica (Singer 1986). Monographic studies in the genus had been carried out in Europe (Kühner & Romagnesi 1956, Orton 1986, Vellinga 1990) North America (Smith & Stunz 1958, Homola 1972, Banerjee & Sundberg 1995) and South America (Singer 1958, 1961). A worldwide monographic approach was published by Singer (1956). In the Iberian Peninsula (Spain and Portugal) and Balearic Islands (Spain) the records of Pluteus are often included in general checklists. Prior to our study the only monographic paper on this genus was an article by Muñoz- Sánchez (1991), dealing with species of section Pluteus, mainly based on collections from the Basque Country (northern Spain). Regional studies on Pluteus within the Iberian Peninsula have been published in recent years, as part of the Flora Mycologica Iberica project (Justo & Castro 2004; Justo et al.

For each taxon a list of all collections examined and a map of its distribution is given. According to our revision 12 taxa of Volvariella occur in the area. Key words — Agaricales, Agaricomycetes, Basidiomycota, biodiverstity, Pluteaceae Introduction Volvariella Speg. is a genus traditionally classified in the family Pluteaceae Kotl. & Pouzar (Agaricales, Basidiomycota), but recent molecular research has challenged its monophyly and taxonomic position within the Agaricales (Moncalvo et al. 2002, Matheny et al. 2006). Its main characteristics are the pluteoid basidiomes (i.e. free lamellae; context of pileus and stipe discontinuous), universal veil present in mature specimens as a saccate volva at stipe base, brownish-pink spores in mass and mainly the inverse lamellar trama. It comprises about 50 species (Kirk et al. 2008) and is widely distributed around the world (Singer 1986). Monographic studies of the genus have been mostly carried out in Europe (Kühner & Romagnesi 1956, Orton 1974, 1986; Boekhout 1990) North America (Shaffer 1957) and Africa (Heinemann 1975, Pegler 1977). In the Iberian Peninsula (Spain, Portugal) and Balearic Islands (Spain) the records of Volvariella are scattered, as they are often included in general checklists and prior to our study the only taxonomic paper on this genus, in this area, was an article by Vila et al.

Hennings and J. Rick during the early 20th century expands current Brazilian knowledge of the genus. Searches of the bibliographical and herbarium records revealed a total of 32 Pluteus names linked to specimens collected in Brazil and studied by Hennings and Rick. Of the ten species represented by Brazilian types, five types could not be located in any of the consulted herbaria and therefore must be treated as nomina dubia. None of previously published collections listed under five other names could be located. All other collections (in BPI, FH, PACA and SP) were studied for morphology. In all cases, European names originally attributed by Hennings and Rick have been found to be misapplied, and re-identifications based especially on species described from the Neotropics are suggested. Sections Pluteus and Celluloderma are represented by most collections. Key words — biodiversity, Pluteaceae, taxonomy Introduction Pluteus Fr. (Pluteaceae, Agaricales, Basidiomycota) is a genus represented by approximately 300 species worldwide (Kirk et al.

New collections identified by nrITS sequence analyses extend the distribution of P. dianae to Denmark, European Russia, and the Asian part of Turkey and of P. punctatus to Sweden. The application of these names is discussed; both belong in the P. pl autu s complex, and data on European and North American taxa in this complex are summarised and compared with P. dianae and P. punctatus. Pluteus aestivus is considered a nomen dubium. Key words—Agaricales, Czechia, Pluteaceae, Pluteus sect. Hispidoderma, taxonomy Introduction Pluteus Fr. (Pluteaceae, Agaricales) is an agaricoid genus forming basidiomata characterized by free lamellae, a pinkish spore print, smooth globose to ellipsoid (rarely oblong) basidiospores, an inverse hymenophoral trama, and the presence of cheilocystidia and (often) pleurocystidia (Singer 1986, Vellinga 1990).

  • Study of Some New Species of the Pluteus Genera for the Fungal Flora
    Available online at www.ijpab.com ISSN: 2320 – 7051 Int. J. Pure App. Biosci. 2 (3): 1-9 (2014) Research Article INTERNATIONAL JO URNAL OF PURE & APPLIED BIOSCIENCE Study of some new species of the Pluteus genera for the fungal flora of Morocco Ahmed OUABBOU, Amina OUAZZANI TOUHAMI, Rachid BENKIRANE and Allal DOUIRA* Université Ibn Tofaïl, Faculté des Sciences, Laboratoire de Botanique et de Protection des Plantes, B.P. 133, Kenitra, Maroc *Corresponding Author E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Seven species of the Pluteus genera were encountered in the forest of Mamora (North Western Morocco), including four new species to the fungal flora of Morocco: Pluteus luctuosus, P. depaupreratus, P. podospileus, and P. griseoluridus. Two species, reported by Malençon and Bertault in 1970, have been described for the first time: Pluteus pellitus and Pluteus satur. Pluteus romellii (= Pluteus lutescens), a common species, was described by Malençon and Bertault (1970) and Outcoumit (2011). Keywords: Morocco, Mamora, Pluteus, fungal flora. INTRODUCTION The family Pluteaceae Kotl. & Pouzar (Agaricales, Basidiomycota) includes three genera: the Pluteus Fr. without both annulus and volva, the Chamaeota (W.G.Sm.) with annulus but without volva and Volvariella (Speg.) with volva but without annulus 1,16,21 . Some C hamaeota species have been transferred into Pluteus 16 . The Pluteus genera, created by Fries in 1836 20 , belongs to the order of Pluteales , characterized by free and pinkish lamellae with an inverse bilateral trama, stipe without volva and mostly exannulate, smooth and pinkish spores 3,8,15,17,21 . It comprises about 300 species 11 and is distributed in all continents except Antarctica 21 .

Gilman: Illustrations of the Fleshy Fungi of Iowa V. The Pink-Spored Agar ILLUSTRATIONS OF THE FLESHY FUNGI OF IOWA V. The Pink-Spored Agarics JOSEPH C. GILMAN This series of illustrations of the fleshy fungi of Iowa was started in 1940 in the Iowa Academy of Science Proceedings. At that time the purple-brown-spored forms were treated. Later the white-spored (1941), black-spored agarics (1942), and the fleshy ascoinycetes (1942) have been covered. In this contribution illustration is made of three species of pink-spored agarics, Volvaria bombycina, Entoloma griseum and Pluteus cervinus, and an interesting abnormal form of the last named species. The three genera represented are the ones most likely to be encount­ ered in Iowa.
