The genus Pycnoporellus. - Karstenia 20: 1-15. Descriptions are given of the two species of Pycnoporellus occurring in Fennoscandia, P. alboluteus (Ell. & Ev.) Kotl. & Pouz. and P. fulgens (Fr.) Donk. Their distributions in North Europe are mapped, and their world distributions reviewed. Their ecology, phenology, host relationships, and cultural and microscopical characters are discussed. Great variability exists in the microscopical characters of both species. P. alboluteus is very rare in North Europe, where it has been recorded from only two localities in northern Finland, on Picea abies and once on Alnus incana. P. fulgens is rare and south-eastern in distribution, being known from four Swedish localities and several localities in southern Finland and the adjacent U.S.S.R., mostly on Picea abies, but also on Pinus sylvestris, Populus tremula and Betula. Study of the types indicates that the names frpex woronowii Bres. and Lenzites sepiaria var. dentifera Peck are synonymous with P. alboluteus, and that Ochroporus lithuanicus BYonski (type selected), Polyporus aurantiacus Peck and P. fibrillosus Karst. are synonymous with P. fulgens. The taxonomic position of the genus Pycnopore/lus is discussed. Tuomo Niemela, Department of Botany, University of Helsinki, Unioninkatu 44, SF - 00170 Helsinki 17, Finland.

(Polyporales, Basidiomycota) based on morphological and multigene analyses M.C. Westphalen1,*, M. Rajchenberg2, M. Tomšovský3, A.M. Gugliotta1 Key words Abstract Junghuhnia is a genus of polypores traditionally characterised by a dimitic hyphal system with clamped generative hyphae and presence of encrusted skeletocystidia. However, recent molecular studies revealed that Mycodiversity Junghuhnia is polyphyletic and most of the species cluster with Steccherinum, a morphologically similar genus phylogeny separated only by a hydnoid hymenophore. In the Neotropics, very little is known about the evolutionary relation- Steccherinaceae ships of Junghuhnia s.lat. taxa and very few species have been included in molecular studies. In order to test the taxonomy proper phylogenetic placement of Neotropical species of this group, morphological and molecular analyses were carried out. Specimens were collected in Brazil and used for DNA sequence analyses of the internal transcribed spacer and the large subunit of the nuclear ribosomal RNA gene, the translation elongation factor 1-α gene, and the second largest subunit of RNA polymerase II gene. Herbarium collections, including type specimens, were studied for morphological comparison and to confirm the identity of collections. The molecular data obtained revealed that the studied species are placed in three different genera. Specimens of Junghuhnia carneola represent two distinct species that group in a lineage within the phlebioid clade, separated from Junghuhnia and Steccherinum, which belong to the residual polyporoid clade.

  • 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.

  • 9B Taxonomy to Genus
    Fungus and Lichen Genera in the NEMF Database Taxonomic hierarchy: phyllum > class (-etes) > order (-ales) > family (-ceae) > genus. Total number of genera in the database: 526 Anamorphic fungi (see p. 4), which are disseminated by propagules not formed from cells where meiosis has occurred, are presently not grouped by class, order, etc. Most propagules can be referred to as "conidia," but some are derived from unspecialized vegetative mycelium. A significant number are correlated with fungal states that produce spores derived from cells where meiosis has, or is assumed to have, occurred. These are, where known, members of the ascomycetes or basidiomycetes. However, in many cases, they are still undescribed, unrecognized or poorly known.

China * Correspondence to: [email protected] Abstract—A new, white-rot, poroid, wood-inhabiting fungal genus, Rhomboidia, typified by R. wuliangshanensis, is proposed based on morphological and molecular evidence. Collected from subtropical Yunnan Province in southwest China, Rhomboidia is characterized by annual, stipitate basidiomes with rhomboid pileus, a monomitic hyphal system with thick-walled generative hyphae bearing clamp connections, and broadly ellipsoid basidiospores with thin, hyaline, smooth walls. Phylogenetic analyses of ITS and LSU nuclear RNA gene regions showed that Rhomboidia is in Steccherinaceae and formed as distinct, monophyletic lineage within a subclade that includes Nigroporus, Trullella, and Flabellophora. Key words—Polyporales, residual polyporoid clade, taxonomy, wood-rotting fungi Introduction Polyporales Gäum. is one of the most intensively studied groups of fungi with many species of interest to fungal ecologists and applied scientists (Justo & al. 2017). Species of wood-inhabiting fungi in Polyporales are important as saprobes and pathogens in forest ecosystems and in their application in biomedical engineering and biodegradation systems (Dai & al. 2009, Levin & al. 2016). With roughly 1800 described species, Polyporales comprise about 1.5% of all known species of Fungi (Kirk & al.

Bot. Fennici 54: 159–167. A new monotypic polypore genus, Caudicicola Miettinen, Kotir. & Kulju, is described for the new species C. gracilis Kotir., Kulju & Miettinen. The species was collected in central Finland from Picea abies and Pinus sylvestris stumps, where it grew on undersides of stumps and roots. Caudicicola gracilis is characterized by very fragile basidiocarps, monomitic hyphal structure with clamps, short and wide tramal cells, smooth ellipsoid spores, basidia with long sterigmata and conidiogenous areas in the margins of the basidiocarp producing verrucose, slightly thick-walled conidia. The genus belongs to the residual polyporoid clade of the Polyporales in the vicinity of Steccherinaceae, but has no known close relatives.
