HUBÁLEK Z. (1974): Dispersal of fungi of the family Chaetomiaceae by free-living birds. I. A survey of records. Česká Mykologie 28(2): 65-79 (published: 15th May, 1974)
abstract
Feathers of 502 free-living birds and 367 birds’ nests from Czechoslovakia and Yugoslavia were examined for the presence of Chaetomiaceae. These fungi were found in 53% of feather samples and in 36% of nests; among 89 examined bird species, 62 tested positive. A statistically significant difference was observed in the frequency of Chaetomiaceae on feathers (0.93 isolates per sample) versus nests (0.42 isolates). Only two genera were found: Chaetomium (12 species) and Chaetomidium (2 species). Common species included Chaetomium globosum, C. funicolum, C. murorum, C. indicum, C. cochliodes, and C. bostrychodes; less frequent were C. elatum and C. olivaceum; rare were C. crispatum, C. ochraceum, C. reflexum, C. spirale, Chaetomidium fimeti, and C. subfimeti. Several species were recorded in Czechoslovakia for the first time.
KUBÁTOVÁ A. (2006): Chaetomium in the Czech Republic and notes to three new records. [Ascomycota, pyrenomycetes, Sordariales, Chaetomium, microfungi] Czech Mycology 58(3-4): 155-171 (published: 29th December, 2006)
abstract
Chaetomium (Ascomycota, Sordariales, Chaetomiaceae) is a species-rich genus, with about 100 currently accepted species. Data on the occurrence of Chaetomium species in the Czech Republic were not yet summarised; this paper is the first attempt. So far, 14 Chaetomium species were published from the area of the Czech Republic. The author presents new records of three other Chaetomium (C. aureum, C. madrasense, and C. robustum) isolated from various substrates in the Czech Republic. Short descriptions and photographs are included.
HUBÁLEK Z. (1975): Dispersal of fungi of the family Chaetomiceae by free-living birds. III. Remarks on dispersal mechanisms. Česká Mykologie 29(3): 179-183 (published: 1975)
abstract
The paper discusses epiornithochory, the dispersal of Chaetomium fungi by birds. Two morphological groups with distinctive perithecial hairs are adapted for attachment to feathers. Several species were recovered from migratory birds, supporting long-distance dispersal via epizoochory.
