Microstroma - an uncommon? smut in west Wales (MC, AOC, RNS) Editorial A wet start to the year eventually gave way to a hot and dry July. Whatever the reasons, very few records of note were reported in the first half of the year. Fortunes may change however, as the wet August produced good fruiting in woodlands. Hopefully the grassland and dunes will also respond as we move into the autumn. Our 2017 records have now been submitted to the local and national databases. Only 547 records - reflecting the very disappointing year. The adjacent map shows where most of the effort was targetted. Hopefully this year we can collect significantly more than 1,000 records. Thanks are due to eveyone who submitted well documented, verified records. Particular thanks are due to our top recorders for 2017: Jane Hodges (122 records), DJH (119), Adam and Suzanne Pollard- Powell (108) and Nigel Lee (57).

Box 85167, 3508 AD, Utrecht, The Netherlands *Correspondence: Wilhelm de Beer, [email protected] Abstract: The genus Quambalaria consists of plant-pathogenic fungi causing disease on leaves and shoots of species of Eucalyptus and its close relative, Corymbia. The phylogenetic relationship of Quambalaria spp., previously classified in genera such as Sporothrix and Ramularia, has never been addressed. It has, however, been suggested that they belong to the basidiomycete orders Exobasidiales or Ustilaginales. The aim of this study was thus to consider the ordinal relationships of Q. eucalypti and Q. pitereka using ribosomal LSU sequences. Sequence data from the ITS nrDNA were used to determine the phylogenetic relationship of the two Quambalaria species together with Fugomyces (= Cerinosterus) cyanescens. In addition to sequence data, the ultrastructure of the septal pores of the species in question was compared. From the LSU sequence data it was concluded that Quambalaria spp.

Wang1, B. Theelen2, M. Groenewald2, F.-Y. Bai1,2, T. Boekhout1,2,3,4 Key words Abstract Ustilaginomycotina (Basidiomycota, Fungi) has been reclassified recently based on multiple gene sequence analyses. However, the phylogenetic placement of two yeast-like genera Malassezia and Moniliella in fungi the subphylum remains unclear. Phylogenetic analyses using different algorithms based on the sequences of six molecular phylogeny genes, including the small subunit (18S) ribosomal DNA (rDNA), the large subunit (26S) rDNA D1/D2 domains, smuts the internal transcribed spacer regions (ITS 1 and 2) including 5.8S rDNA, the two subunits of RNA polymerase II taxonomy (RPB1 and RPB2) and the translation elongation factor 1-α (EF1-α), were performed to address their phylogenetic yeasts positions. Our analyses indicated that Malassezia and Moniliella represented two deeply rooted lineages within Ustilaginomycotina and have a sister relationship to both Ustilaginomycetes and Exobasidiomycetes. Those clades are described here as new classes, namely Moniliellomycetes with order Moniliellales, family Moniliellaceae, and genus Moniliella; and Malasseziomycetes with order Malasseziales, family Malasseziaceae, and genus Malasse- zia. Phenotypic differences support this classification suggesting widely different life styles among the mainly plant pathogenic Ustilaginomycotina.

Unfortunately, the Mediterranean Forests, where M. communis occurs, are critically endangered and are currently restricted to small fragmented areas in protected conservation units. In the present work, we performed, for the first time, a metabarcoding study on the spatial variation of fungal community structure in the foliar endophytome of this endemic plant of the Mediterranean biome, using Submitted 29 January 2020 bipartite network analysis as a model. The local bipartite network of Myrtus 12 November 2020 Accepted communis individuals and their foliar endophytic fungi is very low connected, Published 3 December 2020 with low nestedness, and moderately high specialization and modularity.

Mycosphere 8(9), 1457–1555, Doi 10.5943/mycosphere/8/9/10 Abstract Incorporating asexual genera in a natural classification system and proposing one name for pleomorphic genera are important topics in the current era of mycology. Recently, several polyphyletic genera have been restricted to a single family, linked with a single sexual morph or spilt into several unrelated genera. Thus, updating existing data bases and check lists is essential to stay abreast of these recent advanes. In this paper, we update the existing outline of asexual genera and provide taxonomic notes for asexual genera which have been introduced since 2012. Approximately, 320 genera have been reported or linked with a sexual morph, but most genera lack sexual morphs. Keywords – Article 59.1 – Coelomycetous – Hyphomycetous – One name – Pleomorphism Introduction The recent outlines and monographs of different taxonomic groups (including artificial groups i.e.

Bai, [email protected]; T. Boekhout, [email protected] Abstract: The subphylum Ustilaginomycotina (Basidiomycota, Fungi) comprises mainly plant pathogenic fungi (smuts). Some of the lineages possess cultivable uni- cellular stages that are usually classified as yeast or yeast-like species in a largely artificial taxonomic system which is independent from and largely incompatible with that of the smut fungi. Here we performed phylogenetic analyses based on seven genes including three nuclear ribosomal RNA genes and four protein coding genes to address the molecular phylogeny of the ustilaginomycetous yeast species and their filamentous counterparts. Taxonomic revisions were proposed to reflect this phylogeny and to implement the ‘One Fungus = One Name’ principle. The results confirmed that the yeast-containing classes Malasseziomycetes, Moniliellomycetes and Ustilaginomycetes are monophyletic, whereas Exobasidiomycetes in the current sense remains paraphyletic. Four new genera, namely Dirkmeia gen. nov., Kalma- nozyma gen. nov., Golubevia gen. nov. and Robbauera gen.
