Sommerfeltia 31 Innmat 20080203.Indd SOMMERFELTIA 31 (2008) 3 Ain Raitviir in memoriam Our friend, colleague and distinguished mycologist Ain Raitviir passed away in his country home in Tartu County, Estonia on 17 September 2006. He was born on 10 July 1938 in Tallinn (Estonia); after graduating Tartu University in botany in 1961, he obtained his Cand. Biol. (= Ph. D.) degree in 1964 and D. Sc. (Botany) degree in 1987 in Tartu. Since 1961, he was working as a Research Scien- tist in Mycology in the Institute of Zoology and Botany of the Estonian Academy of Sciences (now renamed and reorganised to an Institute of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences of the Estonian University of Life Sciences). During 45 years he published above 150 papers including 10 books on the taxonomy and ecol- ogy of fungi (mainly of Helotiales), described 226 new for science fungal species. He had travelled widely and collected herbarium specimens in the Russian Far East, Central Asia, Greenland and many other remote regions. In 1990-1995 he was the Chief Editor of the popular-scientific journal “Estonian Nature”; he was active as a Co-Chairperson of the Union of Estonian Scientists, and Chair- person of the Estonian Mycological Society. He had wide interests and knowledge on humanities; inter alia, he translated into Estonian Rachel Carson’s book “Silent Spring” and James D. Watson’s “The Double Helix”. Mycologists of the Institute of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences of the Estonian University of Life Sciences and of the Estonian Mycological Society SOMMERFELTIA 31 (2008) 7 ISAM VII AT FINSE, NORWAY, 2005 G. Gulden & K. Høiland Gulden, G. & Høiland, K. 2008. ISAM VII at Finse, Norway, 2005. – Sommerfeltia 31: 7-16. Oslo. ISBN 82-7420-045-4. ISSN 0800-6865. BACKGROUND The first International Symposium on Arctic and alpine Mycology, ISAM (FISAM), was held in 1980 at Barrow, Alaska, following an initiative from Gary Laursen who also acted as ISAM’s first presi- dent. Subsequently six more ISAMs have been arranged at intervals of 4 (5) years until 2005, when ISAM VII was arranged in Norway. A quick retrospective on the 25 years reveals that ISAMs have taken place in Arctic as well as in Alpine environments, and that alternations of the session locations between such regions and also the different continents have been accomplished. About one hundred mycologists, from 20 countries, working on arctic-alpine mycology have participated (Table 1). A set of guidelines for organizing future ISAM gatherings in a meaningful way was agreed upon at ISAM II (see Preamble, Box 1). Following each ISAM, proceedings have been issued, containing papers by the participants and co-authors, on arctic-alpine mycology (Box 2). The importance of the ISAMs for the acceleration of mycological research in arctic and alpine environments has been considerable. Much, however, remains to be done in order to bring mycological knowledge from these harsh and mostly lonely environments up to current levels of temperate-boreal mycology. ISAM VII took place at The Alpine Research Centre at Finse in South Norway, a research centre owned and run by the two universities in Bergen and Oslo and established in 1970. The Centre has excellent lodging and laboratory facilities and, best of all, an alpine environment with numerous fungi just outside the front door. ISAM VII IN RETROSPECT Twenty mycologists from eleven countries participated in ISAM VII (Fig. 1). We were lodged at Finse Alpine Research Centre. This has two buildings, of which we occupied the newest, built in 1996, a classroom and conference building including a laboratory with microscopes and other im- portant facilities for biological research and teaching. The session took place at an early stage of the alpine mushroom season (9–15 August); the weather conditions had been good for the development of macromycete sporocarps, with enough rain the weeks before and a relatively high temperature. During the session, the weather was hot and dry with excellent conditions for collecting. Tab. 1. ISAM participants 1980-2005. x = participant, a = article in proceedings.

  • Systematics, Barcoding and Ecology of Fungi from Waxcap Grasslands in Britain
    Project report to DEFRA 1: 3 December 2010 Systematics, barcoding and ecology of fungi from waxcap grasslands in Britain Collaborations An important component of the project is to bring together professional scientists and specialist volunteers to contribute specimens and ecological data, and later on to explore ways of improving the existing recording and monitoring schemes. The project will provide valuable data to aid decision-making for conservation management, for example designation of SSSIs and establishment of red data lists. The first action was therefore to publicize the project to potential collaborators, and emails and verbal communications took place both directly with known collectors/recording groups and through the British Mycological Society. Excluding those named in the project application, 33 individuals/recording groups have provided specimens and/or identification data. Our initial request was for all species of Hygrocybe and Geoglossaceae. While a number of these are common and widespread, there are concerns that existing species concepts are too broad and are masking cryptic taxa. Along with specimens that we have collected ourselves, we have received a total of 213 collections belonging to 34 species/varieties of Hygrocybe and four species of Geoglossaceae. The collections have come from 27 different vice-counties in England, Wales and Scotland. Much of the field season was poor for waxcap species, although a number of species fruited abnormally late in the year. With this in mind, we are very happy with the response we have received from field workers, and there has been a widespread welcome for our project. We are confident that our field collaborators will continue to support our work throughout the project period and beyond.

  • LUNDY FUNGI: FURTHER SURVEYS 2004-2008 by JOHN N
    Journal of the Lundy Field Society, 2, 2010 LUNDY FUNGI: FURTHER SURVEYS 2004-2008 by JOHN N. HEDGER1, J. DAVID GEORGE2, GARETH W. GRIFFITH3, DILUKA PEIRIS1 1School of Life Sciences, University of Westminster, 115 New Cavendish Street, London, W1M 8JS 2Natural History Museum, Cromwell Road, London, SW7 5BD 3Institute of Biological Environmental and Rural Sciences, University of Aberystwyth, SY23 3DD Corresponding author, e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT The results of four five-day field surveys of fungi carried out yearly on Lundy from 2004-08 are reported and the results compared with the previous survey by ourselves in 2003 and to records made prior to 2003 by members of the LFS. 240 taxa were identified of which 159 appear to be new records for the island. Seasonal distribution, habitat and resource preferences are discussed. Keywords: Fungi, ecology, biodiversity, conservation, grassland INTRODUCTION Hedger & George (2004) published a list of 108 taxa of fungi found on Lundy during a five-day survey carried out in October 2003. They also included in this paper the records of 95 species of fungi made from 1970 onwards, mostly abstracted from the Annual Reports of the Lundy Field Society, and found that their own survey had added 70 additional records, giving a total of 156 taxa. They concluded that further surveys would undoubtedly add to the database, especially since the autumn of 2003 had been exceptionally dry, and as a consequence the fruiting of the larger fleshy fungi on Lundy, especially the grassland species, had been very poor, resulting in under-recording. Further five-day surveys were therefore carried out each year from 2004-08, three in the autumn, 8-12 November 2004, 4-9 November 2007, 3-11 November 2008, one in winter, 23-27 January 2006 and one in spring, 9-16 April 2005.

  • A Synopsis of the Saddle Fungi (Helvella: Ascomycota) in Europe – Species Delimitation, Taxonomy and Typification
    Persoonia 39, 2017: 201–253 ISSN (Online) 1878-9080 www.ingentaconnect.com/content/nhn/pimj RESEARCH ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.3767/persoonia.2017.39.09 A synopsis of the saddle fungi (Helvella: Ascomycota) in Europe – species delimitation, taxonomy and typification I. Skrede1,*, T. Carlsen1, T. Schumacher1 Key words Abstract Helvella is a widespread, speciose genus of large apothecial ascomycetes (Pezizomycete: Pezizales) that are found in terrestrial biomes of the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. This study represents a beginning on molecular phylogeny assessing species limits and applying correct names for Helvella species based on type material and specimens in the Pezizales university herbaria (fungaria) of Copenhagen (C), Harvard (FH) and Oslo (O). We use morphology and phylogenetic systematics evidence from four loci – heat shock protein 90 (hsp), translation elongation factor alpha (tef), RNA polymerase II (rpb2) and the nuclear large subunit ribosomal DNA (LSU) – to assess species boundaries in an expanded sample of Helvella specimens from Europe. We combine the morphological and phylogenetic information from 55 Helvella species from Europe with a small sample of Helvella species from other regions of the world. Little intraspecific variation was detected within the species using these molecular markers; hsp and rpb2 markers provided useful barcodes for species delimitation in this genus, while LSU provided more variable resolution among the pertinent species. We discuss typification issues and identify molecular characteristics for 55 European Helvella species, designate neo- and epitypes for 30 species, and describe seven Helvella species new to science, i.e., H. alpicola, H. alpina, H. carnosa, H. danica, H. nannfeldtii, H. pubescens and H.
