HOLUBOVÁ-JECHOVÁ V., MERCADO SIERRA A. (1986): Studies on Hyphomycetes from Cuba IV. Dematiaceous Hyphomycetes from the Province Pinar del Rio.  Česká Mykologie 40(3): 142-164   (published: 29th August, 1986)
  abstract   Seventy taxa of dematiaceous Hyphomycetes belonging to 44 genera were collected in the Province Pinar del Rio, in the western part of Cuba. An attention was mainly given to the saprophytic microfungi colonizing dead wood and bark of different broad-leaved trees, palms and decaying herbaceous material. Twenty-three hyphomycetes are recorded here for the first time from the Cuban territory, seven taxa of them are described and illustrated as new for science: Corynesporopsis rionensis Hol.-Jech., Monodictys sessilis Hol.-Jech., Pithomyces sumiderensis Hol.-Jech., Pseudospiropes cubensis Hol.-Jech., Sporidesmium dissolvens Hol.-Jech., Mercado et Mena, Virgariella caribensis Hol.-Jech., as new species and Sporidesmium tropicale M. B. Ellis var. cubensis Hol.-Jech. as a new variety. Codinaea lunulospora Hewings et Crane is transferred to Dictyochaeta and Sporidesmium pseudolmediae Castañeda to Corynespora. One typical lignicolous ascomycete Nitschkia acanthostroma (Mont.) Nannfeldt is also added.

HOLUBOVÁ-JECHOVÁ V., MERCADO SIERRA A. (1984): Studies on Hyphomycetes from Cuba II. Hyphomycetes from the Isla de la Juventud.  Česká Mykologie 38(2): 96-120   (published: 1984)
  abstract   Sixty-eight species or varieties of lignicolous and other saprophytic Hyphomycetes belonging to 47 genera are recorded from the Isla de la Juventud (formerly Isla de Pinos). The majority of them are probably common species in subtropic or tropic regions, however, previously unreported from Cuba or adjacent islands in Caribbean area. Some infrequent or rare Hyphomycetes were also collected and 11 new species are described here.

GHATE S.D., SRIDHAR K.R. (2015): Rain-borne fungi in stemflow and throughfall of six tropical palm species.   [Canopy, hyphomycetes, conidia, species richness, diversity, abiotic factors]  Czech Mycology 67(1): 45-58   (published: 29th May, 2015)
  abstract   The present survey documents rain-borne hyphomycetes in stemflow and throughfall of six palm species on the west coast of India during the monsoon season. A total of 61 species were recovered.Irrespective of the palms, throughfall was represented by a higher number of species than stemflow.Pearson correlation was significant and positive between richness of species and conidia with air humidity, air temperature, water temperature and water conductivity. Except for Areca, Shannon diversity was higher in throughfall compared to stemflow. Jaccard’s percent similarity of species in stemflow was lowest between Cocos vs. Roystonea (16%) and highest between Borassus vs. Caryota (55.5%), while in throughfall it was lowest between Areca vs. Livistona (16.7%) and highest between Caryota vs. Cocos and Livistona vs. Cocos (50%).Two-way ANOVA revealed that the richness of species and that of conidia were significantly more dependent on palm species than stemflow or throughfall. The number of rain-borne fungi in palm species exceeded that in the nearby coastal stream with an overlap of about 40%.

JOHNOVÁ M. (2009): Diversity and ecology of selected lignicolous Ascomycetes in the Bohemian Switzerland National Park (Czech Republic).   [ascomycetes, lignicolous pyrenomycetes, biodiversity, ecology, endangered species]  Czech Mycology 61(1): 81-97   (published: 29th September, 2009)
  abstract   Lignicolous pyrenomycetes, their anamorphs and asexually reproducing Ascomycetes were investigated on deciduous and coniferous wood at 10 localities of the Bohemian Switzerland National Park (České Švýcarsko in Czech) during 2003–2005. A total number of 109 species was recorded, 11 species were found both as teleomorph and anamorph. Individual localities were evaluated from the viewpoint of Ascomycetes diversity. Ecological demands, relationship with the type of substratum, and microhabitat preferences were noted and several ecological groups are suggested. Rare and endangered species and factors affecting Ascomycetes diversity are discussed. Several species new to the Czech Republic were recorded, viz. Apiorhynchostoma altipetum, Camarops pugillus, Crassochaeta fusispora, Lophiotrema boreale, and Togniniella acerosa.

KARAMCHAND K.S., SRIDHAR K.R. (2008): Water-borne conidial fungi inhabiting tree holes of the west coast and Western Ghats of India.   [tree holes, canopy, leaf litter, water-borne fungi, conidia, diversity]  Czech Mycology 60(1): 63-74   (published: 4th July, 2008)
  abstract   The present study focuses on water-borne conidial fungi associated with leaf litter in riparian tree holes of the west coast (Konaje) and Western Ghats (Sampaje) of India during dry (summer) and wet (monsoon) seasons. Out of a total of 34 fungal taxa recovered from leaf litter trapped in tree holes, 26 fully identified taxa constitute the first record for the tree hole habitat. Paired t-test revealed no significant difference in number of taxa (P = 0.1177) and conidial output (P = 0.1816) between Konaje and Sampaje tree holes, while they significantly differed between seasons of Konaje (P = 0.0258) and Sampaje (P = 0.0206). The Simpson and Shannon diversity of fungi were highest in Sampaje than Konaje tree holes. Tree-wise diversity of fungi revealed that banyan (Ficus benghalensis) tree holes are highly diverse during the summer and monsoon seasons in Konaje, but only during summer in Sampaje. In spite of a low conidial output, tree hole leaf litter of Konaje yielded 18 taxa against 20 taxa in the Konaje stream, wheras 29 taxa were recorded in Sampaje tree holes against 68 taxa in the Sampaje stream. The current study has been compared with earlier investigations on the occurrence of water-borne conidial fungi in tree canopies (e. g. intact leaves, leaf litter, tree holes, stemflow and throughfall).

SVRČEK M. (1979): Fungi in Hungaria Mense Septembri 1978 lecti.  Česká Mykologie 33(3): 150-158   (published: 1979)
  abstract   102 species of fungi were collected in Hungary by the author during excursions at the time of the VII Congress of European Mycologists, Budapest 1978. The species collected belong to the following groups: Myxomycetes 8, Pyrenomycetes 18, Discomycetes 33, Teliomycetes 5, Hymenomycetes 21, Gasteromycetes 3, Coelomycetes 3, Hyphomycetes 11. All fungi were collected by the author, some by MUDr. Georgius Kubická. The dried specimens are deposited in the Mycological Herbarium of the National Museum in Prague.

HOLUBOVÁ-JECHOVÁ V. (1979): Lignicolous and some other saprophytic Hyphomycetes from Hungary.  Česká Mykologie 33(3): 138-149   (published: 1979)
  abstract   Fifty nine species or varieties of lignicolous and other saprophytic Hyphomycetes belonging to 41 genera are recorded from Hungary. The majority of them are common species, occurring in Europe, however, previously unreported from Hungary. Some of rare and infrequent lignicolous Hyphomycetes were also collected.

HOLUBOVÁ-JECHOVÁ V. (1971): Polyphenoloxidase enzymes from wood-inhabiting Hyphomycetes.  Česká Mykologie 25(1): 23-32   (published: 28th January, 1971)
  abstract   Oxidase tests were applied to 35 wood-inhabiting saprophytic Hyphomycetes to determine their ability to produce polyphenoloxidase enzymes. Most produced laccase, some tyrosinase, and a few peroxidase. The presence of these enzymes, especially tyrosinase, has taxonomic significance. This is the first report of such enzymes in Hyphomycetes.
