KOUKOL O., LUKÁČOVÁ K., BARAL H.-O. (2024): Phylogenetic placement of Sarcotrochila alpina, the hitherto unknown teleomorph of Rhabdocline laricis.   [Meria laricis, Larix decidua, phylogeny, vital characteristics, ascospore morphology.]  Czech Mycology 76(1): 17-32   (published: 23rd February, 2024)
  abstract   Sarcotrochila alpina (type species of the genus Sarcotrochila) has long been known as a saprotroph colonising larch needles in litter. During a survey of mycobiota colonising needles in litter, we regularly observed apothecia of this species on larch needles cultivated in damp chambers, and isolated the fungus from its ascospores into culture. Analysis of ITS rDNA obtained from these cultures revealed a surprising connection to the anamorph-typified species Rhabdocline (= Meria) laricis, a weak pathogen of European larch. A new combination, Rhabdocline alpina, is proposed, reflecting their conspecificity and the priority of the epitheton alpina. A proposal to protect the much more often used generic name Rhabdocline against the older Sarcotrochila is planned. The morphology of the species in vital condition is presented, and for the two examined type specimens of Orbilia retrusa and Hyalinia nostra (both synonyms of R. alpina) in dead condition. A comparison of our findings with descriptions in the literature is presented.

BOHOSLAVETS O.M., PRYDIUK M.P. (2023): New records of rare wood-inhabiting fungi from the Ukrainian Carpathians.   [Amylocystis lapponica, biodiversity, Crustoderma dryinum, indicator species, primeval forests, Sistotrema alboluteum.]  Czech Mycology 75(1): 61-83   (published: 26th May, 2023)
  abstract   The Ukrainian Carpathians provide an important refuge for rare lignicolous fungi due to one of the largest areas of old-growth forests in Europe. During 2019–2022, new localities of 13 noteworthy species of lignicolous fungi were revealed on the northeastern macroslope of the Ukrainian Carpathians (Gorgany Nature Reserve, vicinities of the towns of Nadvirna and Yavoriv). Of these, Sistotrema alboluteum is a new species for Ukraine. In addition, we report two rare species restricted to natural forests, Amylocystis lapponica and Crustoderma dryinum, which had not been recorded in the country for over 80 years. Locality data and habitat types for all reported species as well as detailed descriptions and illustrations of the most interesting finds are provided. Ecology and distribution of some species are briefly summarised.

KAUR M., KAUR R., SINGH A.P., DHINGRA G.S. (2019): Eight new records of corticioid fungi from India.   [Basidiomycota, Himalaya, wood rotting fungi, Himachal Pradesh, Shimla.]  Czech Mycology 71(2): 151-166   (published: 26th November, 2019)
  abstract   Eight species of the corticioid fungi, i.e. Ceraceomyces microsporus, Ceratobasidium cornigerum, Coniophora dimitica, Corticium lombardiae, Hypochnicium bombycinum, Phlebia coccineofulva, Radulomyces rickii and Rhizoctonia cf. sphaerospora are newly reported from India. The specimens were collected in different parts of Shimla District (Himachal Pradesh). Descriptions, photographs and line drawings of the new records from India are provided.

KOLAŘÍK M. (2018): New taxonomic combinations in endophytic representatives of the genus Nigrograna   [Biatriospora, taxonomy, endophytic fungi]  Czech Mycology 70(2): 123-126   (published: 28th September, 2018)
  abstract   Nigrograna (Ascomycota: Pleosporales), with the type species N. mackinnonii, has been considered a synonym of Biatriospora. Recently, it was shown that these two genera are distinct. In this study, four species earlier described in Biatriospora, i.e. B. antibiotica, B. carollii, B. peruviensis and B. yasuniana, which are phylogenetically related to N. mackinnonii, are combined in Nigrograna. Recently, three teams of authors published eight Nigrograna species almost simultaneously (2016–2017), thus some were not compared phylogenetically. A comparison of available sequences showed that all nine accepted species are unique. It can be concluded that Nigrograna is ecologically diverse, comprising species living as endophytes or saprobes of plants (some of them associated with other fungi living on those plants) as well as species living in marine or estuarine environments.Interestingly, all associations with vascular plants concern angiosperms.

EGERTOVÁ Z., GAISLER J., ZEMANOVÁ L., HRADÍLEK Z. (2016): Mniaecia jungermanniae (Helotiales), an overlooked bryophilous ascomycete in the Liberec Region (Czech Republic).   [bryophilous fungi, Jungermanniales, leafy liverworts, North Bohemia]  Czech Mycology 68(2): 149-165   (published: 14th October, 2016)
  abstract   Mniaecia jungermanniae, a tiny inoperculate ascomycete growing on leafy liverworts of the order Jungermanniales, was recorded at 66 localities in the Liberec Region (Czech Republic) since December 2013 to May 2015. It was noticed on 17 species of liverworts, with Cephalozia bicuspidata, Calypogeia neesiana, C. azurea and Diplophyllum albicans being the most frequently inhabited ones.The species was recorded on rocks and boulders as well as on soil on forest tracks and along streams, exceptionally on wood. The geological bedrock was acidic in all cases – sandstone, granite or phyllite.The altitude of the localities ranged between 315 and 1215 m a.s.l. Localities were predominantly located in the shade in coniferous and broad-leaved forests, always with a rich occurrence of liverworts.Hitherto known localities in the Czech Republic are also summarised in the article.

KOUT J., HAJŠMANOVÁ P. (2015): Kavinia alboviridis in the Czech Republic.   [Basidiomycetes, Gomphales, corticioid species, Bohemia]  Czech Mycology 67(1): 59-67   (published: 29th May, 2015)
  abstract   The distribution of the rare lignicolous species Kavinia alboviridis in the Czech Republic is summarised. Recently the species has been found at three localities in West Bohemia and at one locality in NW Bohemia. It is considered a boreal species rare in Europe and listed as extinct from the Czech Republic. The species is well distinguishable microscopically by the spores which clearly differ from other species with a resupinate, hydnoid basidioma. Remarks on its world distribution are added.

ONDRÁČKOVÁ E., ONDŘEJ M., PROKINOVÁ E., NESRSTA M. (2013): Mycoparasitic fungi reducing the incidence and virulence of Bipolaris sorokiniana.   [mycoparasitic activity, mycoparasitic fungi, Clonostachys, Trichoderma, Bipolaris sorokiniana]  Czech Mycology 65(1): 103-112   (published: 10th June, 2013)
  abstract   The mycoparasitic efficiency of 28 strains/isolates of Clonostachys rosea f. rosea and Clonostachys rosea f. catenulata against the pathogenic fungus Bipolaris sorokiniana was determined in dual cultures on Czapek-Dox nutrient agar. Strains with low and medium efficiency were antagonistically inhibited by B. sorokiniana, and inhibitory zones were formed between the colonies of both fungi. The mycelium of Clonostachys strains with high efficiency overgrew and degraded B. sorokiniana colonies without formation of an inhibitory zone. In dual cultures, Trichoderma sp. and the most effective Clonostachys strains degraded B. sorokiniana colonies within 3 to 5 and 12 to 15 days, respectively.When rye seeds were treated with a mixture of C. rosea f. rosea, Trichoderma sp. and B. sorokiniana, development of B. sorokiniana on both seeds and seedlings was reduced when compared with a B. sorokiniana treatment. The treatment of rye seeds with Clonostachys and Trichoderma had a positive effect on seed germination and seedling length.

NAKASONE K. (2012): Type studies of corticioid Hymenomycetes (Basidiomycota) with aculei - Part II.   [type studies, corticioid fungi, Phanerochaete chrysorhiza]  Czech Mycology 64(1): 23-42   (published: 2nd July, 2012)
  abstract   Type specimens of fifteen, resupinate, crustose basidiomycetes with aculei described by various authors were examined. Nine taxa are later synonyms: Hydnum albiceps Berk. & Rav. (= Phlebia fascicularis), Hydnum chrysodon Berk. & M.A. Curtis (= Hydnophlebia chrysorhiza), Hydnum hypochrum Berk. & Broome (= Dentipellis leptodon), Hydnum micheneri Berk. (= Steccherinum ciliolatum), Hydnum pallidum Cooke & Ellis (= Xylodon fimbriiformis), Hydnum schweinitzii Berk. & M.A. Curtis (= H. chrysorhiza), Irpex furfuraceovelutinus Rick (= Kneiffiella stereicola), Irpex galzinii Bres. (= Amyloporia sinuosa), and Merulius elliottii Massee (= H. chrysorhiza). Irpex fimbriiformis Berk. & M.A. Curtis (≡ X. fimbriiformis) is accepted as a distinct species. Five new combinations are proposed: Cristinia decolorans for Irpex decolorans Cooke, Dentipellis ohiensis for Hydnum ohiense Berk., an earlier name for Dentipellis dissita (Berk. & Cooke) Maas Geest., Odonticium depauperatum for Irpex depauperatus Berk. & Broome, Peniophorella tessulata for Kneiffia tessulata Berk. & M.A. Curtis, an earlier name for Peniophorella rudis (Bres.) K.H. Larss., and Schizopora archeri for Irpex archeri Berk.

HOLEC J., WILD J. (2011): Fungal diversity in sandstone gorges of the Bohemian Switzerland National Park (Czech Republic): impact of climatic inversion.   [macromycetes, ecology, microclimate, boreal-montane fungi]  Czech Mycology 63(2): 243-263   (published: 10th August, 2011)
  abstract   The diversity of macrofungi in 8 sandstone gorges (narrow valleys bordered by sandstone walls, mostly covered by Picea forests with admixed Fagus, alt. 170–390 m) was assessed with respect to microclimatic data from 235 stations measuring temperature and soil moisture along the elevation gradient. In total, 253 species of macrofungi were found including some boreal-montane species, species preferring moist habitats and/or species of more or less natural vegetation. Microclimatically, the bottoms of gorges are significantly colder than their slopes and slope crests during the vegetation period (climatic inversion) and show higher soil moisture throughout the year. However, they are not significantly colder during the winter period and even show a higher average minimal temperature than the rest of gorges. Generally, bottoms of sandstone gorges function as „buffers“ maintaining a stable, humid and rather cold microclimate and enabling the occurrence of some boreal-montane fungi and species requiring humid conditions. Climatic inversion is a phenomenon markedly influencing the distribution of fungi in the landscape and enabling extrazonal occurrence of some species.

JEANNEROT B. (2011): Contribution to the study of the genus Scutellinia (Pezizales) II: Type study of Scutellinia uliginosa and S. phymatodea.   [Ascomycota, taxonomy, nomenclature, Pyronemataceae, Scutellinia sect. Minutae]  Czech Mycology 63(2): 163-175   (published: 10th August, 2011)
  abstract   The author revises and illustrates the types of Scutellinia uliginosa L.R. Batra and S. phymatodea S.C. Kaushal & R. Kaushal, two rare species, based on Indian material. The two names are concluded to be synonyms and S. uliginosa is the correct name of the species. New criteria for identification of this species are proposed, and the history and taxonomic status are discussed.

MÜLLER J. (2010): Beitrag zur mykofloristischen Erforschung der Rost-, Brand und Falschen Mehltaupilze auf dem Králický Sněžník (Glatzer Schneeberg) und seiner Umgebung (Tschechische Republik).   [Králický Sněžník, Peronosporomycetes, Pucciniomycetes, Ustilaginomycetes, Microbotryomycetes]  Czech Mycology 62(1): 87-101   (published: 15th February, 2011)
  abstract   Between 1889 and 2001 a total of 17 species of downy mildews (Peronosporomycetes), 6 species of smut fungi (Ustilaginomycetes), 79 species (respectively varieties) of rust fungi (Pucciniomycetes), and 2 species of Microbotryomycetes were found in the Králický Sněžník and its surroundings. The investigated territory is delimited, a brief history of the research into these micromycetes is given, and a survey of 10 species of downy mildews, 2 species of smuts and 55 species of rusts found by the author is given. The results of the research were compared with historical records. The author found 34 species new to the territory concerned. On the other hand, he has not been able to verify the occurrence of 37 species recorded by previous mycologists, especially on the summit of Králický Sněžník.

GRYNDLER M., BOROVIČKA J., GRYNDLEROVÁ H., GRYNDLER E. (2008): Fructification of Langermannia gigantea in artificially inoculated field soil.   [Lycoperdaceae, Langermannia gigantea, Calvatia gigantea, spawn, cultivation, rDNA]  Czech Mycology 60(2): 231-242   (published: 27th February, 2009)
  abstract   Cultures of Langermannia gigantea, a fungus potentially important for human alimentation and biotechnology purposes, were isolated from wild-growing specimens and a spawn was produced using autoclaved soil as a cultivation substrate. The spawn of two isolates was placed into the soil in two field experimental plots. Fructification was first observed after 4 years in only one plot, where 3 normal fruitbodies were produced. Analysis of the rDNA cassette of the 3 fruitbodies revealed that they were identical and bore the attributes of both introduced isolates. The fungus is able to persist in the inoculated soil for years and is dispersed over the soil volume. This is the first report of successful fructification of L. gigantea introduced at a locality where this species had never been observed before.

ŠUTARA J. (2008): Xerocomus s. l. in the light of the present state of knowledge.   [Boletaceae, Xerocomus, Xerocomellus, Hemileccinum, generic taxonomy, anatomy, histology]  Czech Mycology 60(1): 29-62   (published: 4th July, 2008)
  abstract   The definition of the generic limits of Xerocomus s. l. and particularly the delimitation of this genus from Boletus is very unclear and controversial. During his study of European species of the Boletaceae, the author has come to the conclusion that Xerocomus in a wide concept is a heterogeneous mixture of several groups of species. These groups are separated from each other by different anatomical and some other characters. Also recent molecular studies show that Xerocomus s. l. is not a monophyletic group. In agreement with these facts, the European species of Xerocomus s. l. whose anatomy was studied by the present author are here classified into the following, more distinctly delimited genera: Xerocomus s. str., Phylloporus, Xerocomellus gen. nov., Hemileccinum gen. nov. and Pseudoboletus.Boletus badius and Boletus moravicus, also often treated as species of Xerocomus, are retained for the present in the genus Boletus. The differences between Xerocomus s. str., Phylloporus, Xerocomellus, Hemileccinum, Pseudoboletus and Boletus (which is related to this group of genera) are discussed in detail. Two new genera, Xerocomellus and Hemileccinum, and necessary new combinations of species names are proposed.

ADAMČÍK S., CHRISTENSEN M., HEILMANN-CLAUSEN J., WALLEYN R. (2007): Fungal diversity in the Poloniny National Park with emphasis on indicator species of conservation value of beech forests in Europe.   [wood-inhabiting fungi, indicator species, beech forests, biodiversity, Slovakia, macromycetes]  Czech Mycology 59(1): 67-81   (published: 28th June, 2007)
  abstract   This paper lists recent finds of macrofungi from the Poloniny National Park in Slovakia. The list contains data on the occurrence of 62 taxa of macrofungi, 35 of which are new to Poloniny, and 15 have not previously been recorded from Slovakia. Additionally, 17 rare species generally considered as threatened in large parts of Europe were found. The study increases the number of fungal indicator species proposed for assessment of the conservation value of European beech forests known from selected nature reserves in Poloniny. The results of this study combined with previously published data shows that Stužica and Rožok National Nature Reserves are the sites with the highest number of these indicator species in Europe.

For all the taxa descriptions and drawings are provided.

ŠUTARA J., SKÁLA E. (2007): Boletus marekii, a new species with truncate spores from the Boletus chrysenteron group.   [Boletus marekii spec. nov., Boletus subgen. Xerocomus, Boletaceae, Czech Republic]  Czech Mycology 59(1): 11-24   (published: 28th June, 2007)
  abstract   Boletus marekii, a new species which was found in northwestern Bohemia (Czech Republic), is described. This species, belonging to the Boletus chrysenteron group (Boletus subgen. Xerocomus), is characterised mainly by its xerocomoid appearance, red-coloured, soon coarsely rimose-areolate pileus and smooth, truncate spores. Characters distinguishing Boletus marekii from other species of this group, e.g. Boletus armeniacus, Boletus rubellus, Boletus porosporus, Boletus fennicus, Boletus ripariellus and Boletus declivitatum, are discussed. A new combination, Boletus fennicus, is proposed.

BABU S., NANDAKUMAR R., SRIRAM S., RAGUCHANDER T., BALASUBRAMANIAN P., SAMIYAPPAN R. (2003): Phytotoxin production and rice sheath blight development by Rhizoctonia solani mutants derived from gamma irradiation.   [gamma rays, mutants, phytotoxin, Rhizoctonia solani, rice, sheath blight]  Czech Mycology 55(3-4): 261-271   (published: 22nd December, 2003)
  abstract   To evaluate the role of the RS-toxin, a phytotoxin produced by the fungus Rhizoctonia solani that causes sheath blight disease of rice, varying doses of gamma irradiation were used to generate mutants of the fungus. All the mutants showed reduced mycelial growth compared to the wild isolate RS7 in liquid culture. The mutants exhibited significant differences in virulence on detached leaf sheath and intact rice plants, the toxin produced and sclerotial formation in culture media and infected leafsheaths. The amount of toxin produced was positively correlated with disease development. SDS-PAGE analysis of mycelial proteins showed that the mutants and wild isolate produced many proteins of different molecular weights at different stages of mycelial growth. In the mutants resulting from higherdoses of gamma rays, the amount of toxin produced and their ability to induce disease symptoms were also greatly reduced.

Illustrations such as line drawings, a photograph of apothecia, microphotographs of the apothecia l anatomy and SEM photomicrographs of ascospores accompany the paper.

MORAVEC J. (2003): Taxonomic revision of the genus Cheilymenia - 7. A reassessment of the sections Paracheilymeniae and Raripilosae.   [Cheilymenia, section Paracheilymeniae, series Paracheilymeniae, series Raripilosae, series Glabrae ser. n., section Micropilosae, taxonomicrevision, Discomycetes: Pezizales, Pyronemataceae]  Czech Mycology 54(3-4): 113-133   (published: 23rd May, 2003)
  abstract   Two of the sections of the genus Cheilymenia Boud., sect. Paracheilymeniae, and sect. Raripilosae, originally proposed in the infrageneric arrangement published in Moravec (1990) were reassessed. The section Paracheilymeniae is newly subdivided into three series: ser. Paracheilymeniae (introduced in detail in Moravec 1992), ser. Raripilosae (Moravec 1990) stat. n. (originally these parate section Raripilosae) and the here newly proposed monotypical ser. Glabrae ser. n. Two species of these r. Raripilosae, Cheilymenia raripila (W. Phillips) Dennis, Cheilymenia coprogena (Berk, et Broome) Rifai and the type species of the new ser. Glabrae ser. n., Cheilymenia bohemica (Velen.) J. Moravec, are treated in details. All the taxa are illustrated with line drawings, photographs and SEM photomicrographs. Examination of the type material [K(M)] has revealed that Lasiobolus dubius Starbäck is a later synonym of Cheilymenia raripila.

TOMŠOVSKÝ M. (2002): The genus Phellinus in the Šumava Mts.   [Basidiomycetes, Hymenochaetaceae, Phellinus, Šumava Mts. (Czech Republic), ecology, distribution]  Czech Mycology 54(1-2): 45-78   (published: 3rd October, 2002)
  abstract   The ecology and distribution of species of Phellinus (Basidiomycetes, Hymenochaetaceae) in the Šumava Mts. was studied. The study area represents the Czech part of the Šumava mountain range at the border of the Czech Republic, Germany and Austria. The area was intensively studied during they ears 1997-2000. The data based on the author’s own records were complemented with unpublished records based on collections deposited in the PRM herbarium. Al together 18 species of Phellinus were confirmed for the Šumava Mts. The distribution, altitude range, substrate specificity and vegetation preference of each species are evaluated. The text is completed with distribution maps of the species.

HÝSEK J., BROŽOVÁ J. (2001): The role of some saprophytic micromycetes and fungus Micromucor ramannianus var. ramannianus in forest soil.   [humic horizon, soil fungi, saprophytic micromycetes, Micromucorramannianusvar. ramannianus, biological soil functions, respiration, ammonification, nitrification]  Czech Mycology 53(2): 161-171   (published: 20th February, 2002)
  abstract   Different saprophytic micromycetes were isolated from the humic horizon (H-A 02) of different types of forest soils (barren l and of reforested waste dumps, cambisol of spruce, birch, European mountain ash, and blue spruce forests) in several areas (at Most in the Krušné hory (Ore Mts.), Jizerské hory (Izera Mts.)). Besides the spectrum of common species of soil micromycetes (Penicillium spp., Humicola spp., Trichoderma spp., Paecilomyces spp., Scopulariopsis spp., Aureobasidium spp., Mucor spp., Absidia spp.), the fungus Micromucor ramannianus (Möller) Arx var. ramannianus (Mortierella ramanniana (Möller) Linneman, Mucor ramannianus Möller) was regularly isolated from all types of soils, except barren soils of was te dumps. The biological quality of forest soils in connection with other biological characteristics was evaluated in relation to the presence and quantity of this fungus in forest soils. Basic biological processes (basal and potential respiration, ammonification, nitrification) show an increased intensity in forest soils in which the proportion of Micromucorramannianus v. ramannianus was not present in the soil of the worst biological quality (lower values of biological soil parameters), e.g. in of was te dumps. It is a topic for discussion whe the r this fungus can also be an indicator of environmental pollution.

  abstract   All species of Galera described by Velenovský and belonging to the genera Conocybe and Pholiotina are critically revised. Of 31 species cited in Velenovský’s papers many are considered dubious, the herbarium material being in a too bad state to allow a correct interpretation; in a number of cases such material is even not existing. Two species are described as new, nine new combinations are proposed and six species are reduced to synonyms.

  abstract   Alist of 26 species of lichens and 2 lichenicolous fungi from the CzechRepublic with comments isgiven. 11speciesarenew for the country: the lichensAbsconditelladelutula, Aspiciliamoenium, Bacidina chloroticula, Epigloea medioincrassata, Lecanora pseudistera, Micarea botryoides, Phaeocalicium compressulum, Trapeliopsis pseudogranulosa, Xanthoria calcicola and the lichen­ icolous fungiEndococcus pseudocarpus and Zwackhiomyces sphinctrinoides; 4 lichens are new for Bohemia (Agonimia tristicula, Bacidina amoldiana, Buellia epigaea, Endocarpon psorodeum) and 1 for Moravia (Absconditella lignicola). Belonia incamata is new for the Šumava Mts. Diploicia canescens, Parmelia glabra and Parmelia revoluta, species which had been missing in the Czech Republic for a long period of time, were recently rediscovered. Other included lichens are very rarely found and are known from only a few localities in the Czech Republic. A large number of recordsare from the Protected Landscape Area Křivoklátsko, in the Rakovník District.

MORAVEC J. (1998): Taxonomic revision of the genus Cheilymenia - 6. Cheilymenia polaripustulata sp. nov. - a new species of the section Striatisporae.   [Cheilymenia polaripustulata sp. nov., section Striatisporae, series Tenuistriatae, Discomycetes, taxonomy]  Czech Mycology 50(3): 189-200   (published: 16th May, 1998)
  abstract   Cheilymenia polaripustulata sp. nov., belonging to these ction Striatisporae J. Mor., ser. Tenuistriatae J. Moravec (1990, is described from Moravia, Czech Republic. The new species is distinguished by its smaller ascospores and by conspicuous cyanophilic pustules which are situated on the ascospore poles. The polar pustules, proved also by SEM photomicrographs demonstrated here, represent a unique feature in the genus. Relations of species of these ries Tenuistriatae, their taxonomic value and position in these ction Striatisporae and the delimit­ ation of these ction in the genus Cheilymenia is discussed. The author stresses that only the use of such a staining method which strictly avoids heating the slides, allows to recognize and examine the ornamentation of these parableperisporium of ascosporesin Cheilymenia under the optical microscope. In an additional note, the author elucidates that the term “protype” (passed as Art 7.9bis), used in J. Moravec (1993) in the typification of Cheilymenia stercorea, should be substituted by the legitimate term epitype (Art.9.7, ICBN, 1994).

MORAVEC J. (1997): Key to the species of Scutellinia subgen. Geneosperma (Rifai) comb. et stat. nov. (Discomycetes, Pezizales, Pyronemataceae).   [Scutellinia subgen. Geneosperma (Rifai) comb. et stat. nov., Scutellinia laevispora (Korfet Zhuang) comb. nov., S. geneospora, S. totaranuiensis, folliculate ascospores, taxonomy]  Czech Mycology 50(2): 85-97   (published: 16th December, 1997)
  abstract   Geneosperma Rifai (1968), originally created as a monotypic genus with the type species Geneosperma geneosporum (Berk.) Rifai [= Scutellinia geneospora (Berk.) O. Kuntze, based on Peziza geneospora Berk.], is newly combined here and given the new status of a subgenus of the genus Scutellinia, subgen. Geneosperma (Rifai) comb, et stat. nov.. Besides the type species, the subgenus also comprises two other recently described species, Scutellinia laevispora (Korfet Zhuang) comb. nov. (basionym: Geneosperma laevisporum Korfet Zhuang 1986), and Scutellinia totaranuiensis J. Moravec (1996). Geneospora was synonymized with Scutellinia by Korf (1972, 1973) but later re-evaluated as a good genus again by Korf and Zhuang (1986), and recently recombined by T. Schumacher (1990) t other ank of section of the genus Scutellinia, sect. Geneospermae (Rifai) T. Schumacher. The three species have been studied including the ascospore characteristic by using SEM photomicrographs. Despite the peculiar nature of their ascospores well delimiting Geneosperma ( the ascospores are embedded in a hyaline, membranous sheath which surrounds them in the for m of follicles tapering to the apiculi on the ascospore poles), these three species share all other basic features which characterize the genus Scutellinia. Therefore, the author keeps the infrageneric conception of Geneosperma but simultaneously prefers itssubgeneric position proposed here, which better than its rank of a mere section respects the distinction of the ascospores. On the epispore of ascospores of S. laevispora (a species originally described as smooth spored) peculiar pulvinate cyanophilic tubercles have been observed and verified by SEM. The ascospore character is discussed. A key to the three so far known species of the subgenus Geneosperma and illustrations including SEM of ascospores accompany the paper.

  abstract   Numerous collections by the author and 91 samples of old, fallenburrs of Castanea sativa Mill, received from 51 correspondents in Algeria and 21 countries in Europe, including the Canary Islands, Corsica and Madeira, produced the following Sclerotiniaceae: i.e. Botryotinia fuckeliana (de Bary) Whetzel, Ciboria americana Durand, Ciboria tenuistipes Schroet., Ciborinia bresadolae (Rick) J.T. Palmer, Lanzia echinophila (Bull: Fr.) Korf, L. luteovirescens (Rob. in Desmaz.) Dumont et Korf and Rutstroemia sydowiana (Rehm in Syd.) White as well as species of Ciboria, Ciborinia and Rutstroemia, which require further investigation. Hitherto, L. echinophila was the only sclerotinaceous species reported from this substrate in Europe. The samples ranged from single burrs to large packages with up to four species found in each. In addition, 44 further samples, nineteen of freshly burrs, produced no apothecia . Both C. americana and R. sydowiana have, however, been found in collections in national herbaria determined with a synonym of Lanzia echinophila.

MORAVEC J. (1994): Taxonomic revision of the genus Cheilymenia.   [Cheilymenia, sect. Cheilymenia, taxonomy, nomenclature]  Czech Mycology 47(1): 7-37   (published: 6th January, 1994)
  abstract   Five species belonging to these ction Cheilymenia - the type section of the genus Cheilymenia Boud. - are introduced. The section is divided into three series: ser. a. Cheilymenia with Cheilymenia stercorea (Pers.: Fr.) Boud. (type species), Cheilymenia asteropila J. Mor., and Cheilymenia parvispora spec.nov.described here; ser.b. Pallidae J. Mor. with Cheilymenia pallida Bell et Dennis; and ser. c. Insigniae (J. Mor.) comb. nov. [basionym: Cheilymenia sect. Insigniae J. Moravec (1990b)] represented by Cheilymenia insignis (Cr. et Cr.) Boud. The previously designated lectotype for C. stercorea is rejected, and an illustration mentioned in the sanctioning publication (an “iconotype”) is here designated the lectotype of that name. A ‘protype’ for C. stercorea is newly designated here and the taxonomy and nomenclature of this type-species of the genus is discussed in detail. Based on examination of the type and other relevant material, Peziza stercorea var. aurantiac of lava Fuck., as well as Humaria alpina Fuck., and also Peziza fulvescens Nyl., have proven to be conspecific with C. stercorea; a new combination C. stercorea f. alpina (Fuck.) J. Mor. is proposed. Lachnea stercorea var. microspora Kanouse is synonymised with C. parvispora J. Mor. In addition, a new name, Cheilymenia lacteoalba Arnolds et J. Mor. nom. nov. is proposed for the illegitimate homonym Cheilymenia pallida Arnolds (1982), a species of these ct. Paracheilymeniae. The paper comprises descriptions and illustrations, including SEM photomicrographs.

  abstract   In three archives in Prague and in Klatovy micromycetes from the atmosphere, archive documents, walls and shelves were studied. Altogether 88 species, mostly representatives of the Moniliales as well as Mucorales orders, Penicillium and Aspergillus species prevailed. The following species were among the most frequently isolated: Penicillium cyclopium, Cladosporium herbarum, C. cladosporioides, Alternaria alternata, Aspergillus niger, Penicillium chrysogenum, Rhizopus arrhizus and Aspergillus versicolor. The number of species rose with increasing relative humidity and deteriorated hygienic conditions in the storage areas. Fungi with weaker cellulolytic activity, utilizing bookbinding glues, were also verified to contribute to the destruction of archival documents. From a hygienic perspective, the presence of pathogenic species Aspergillus fumigatus and Rhizomucor pusillus is significant for archive staff.

  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.

URBAN Z., MARKOVÁ J. (1984): Ecology and evolution of Puccinia graminis Pers.  Česká Mykologie 38(2): 65-95   (published: 15th May, 1984)
  abstract   In the area of the secondary evolutionary gene center of wheat (the Mediterranean) as well as in the regions of the primary gene centers the “graminicolous facies“ of the wheat stem rust, Puccinia graminis subsp. graminis seems to play a significant role. Similarly as in the Mediterranean also in Asia the “ruderal facies“ is combined with that of sexual hybridization on barberry (“montane facies“). Future studies envisage the following: 1) study of the rust ecology in the evolutionary centers, determination of geographic distribution of the individual physiologic races and populations and investigation into the urediospore long distance spread; 2) in search after the gene sources of resistance using of stem rust resistant grass populations indigenous to the evolutionary centers is preferred; 3) to protect natural ecosystems embracing barberry within the evolutionary centers and thus ensure the existence and further development of wild and cultivated grass populations possessing a high degree of nonspecific (general) stem rust resistance or tolerance.

  abstract   The differences in the virulence of the crown rust populations of Puccinia coronata Corda var. coronata f. sp. festucae in Czechoslovakia were studied by field infestation of selected clones of Festuca pratensis Huds. at 8 sites under various environmental conditions in 1978–1979. The results, complemented by greenhouse tests on the offspring of the clones, confirmed the existence of at least two rust populations with different virulence levels. This underlines the necessity of testing resistant plant varieties at different localities or using mixed populations of the rust in breeding for resistance.

MORAVEC J. (1983): Several Operculate Discomycetes from Central and east Africa.  Česká Mykologie 37(4): 237-251   (published: 1983)
  abstract   Mycopathological report is presented on a case of carditis in disseminated mucormycosis, the 25th such case according to literature and a second one where Absidia corymbifera was proved by cultivation. A 47-year-old man suffering from chronic myeloic leukaemia, developed bone marrow atrophy after cytostatic treatment, and died from a serious muoormycotic pneumonia; dissemination of mycosis was found in the heart and kidneys. Myocardial lesion prevailed in pancarditis, and mural endocarditis was quite unique.

POUZAR Z. (1983): Taxonomic studies in resupinate fungi II.  Česká Mykologie 37(4): 206-211   (published: 1983)
  abstract   Descriptions of 12 species of the genus Conocybe, 1 species of Agrocybe, 1 species of Coprinus and 3 species of Galerina collected mainly by the author in Bohemia, are recorded. Four species are described as new: Agrocybe stepposa, Coprinus pusillulus, Galerina corcontica and G. detriticola. One new combination, Conocybe microspora (Velen.) Svr., is proposed.

URBAN Z., MARKOVÁ J. (1983): Ecology and taxonomy of Puccinia graminis Pers. in Czechoslovakia.  Česká Mykologie 37(3): 129-150   (published: 28th July, 1983)
  abstract   Puccinia graminis in Czechoslovakia was studied principally on collections from localities with more or less natural occurrence of Berberis vulgaris. Main interest was paid to the ecology and morphology of its urediospores. According to urediospore size and shape four different morphologic groups were recognized. They characterize individual populations or specialized forms. Inoculation experiments document approximately the host range. In Czechoslovakia we recognize 2 subspecies of stem rust. P. graminis subsp. graminis embraces cerealicolous specialized forms together with some large-spored specialized forms on wild grasses: f. sp. secalis and f. sp. Agropyron repens–Dactylis glomerata. P. graminis subsp. graminicola Urban is mainly graminicolous, with races and populations having small urediospores. Somewhat special position in the subspecies graminicola is occupied by three populations that parasitize the following hosts: Anthoxanthum odoratum, Deschampsia cespitosa and Phleum pratense. A further study of epiphytotics pattern should not overlook the very conspicuous existence of large-spored stem rust populations on wild grasses.

FASSATIOVÁ O. (1982): New or rare records of some Deuteromycetes and Ascomycetes from Czechoslovakia.  Česká Mykologie 36(2): 100-108   (published: 1982)

  abstract   In Zemberovce (Forstbetrieb Pukanec) the occurrence of Melanconis modonia Tul. was recorded in 1974 on dried trunks and branches of Castanea sativa with symptoms of ink disease. In the following years the species was found in all monitored locations of Castanea sativa in Slovakia. To gain basic data on the biology of this species, part of the author's work programme focused on studying the effect of temperature, relative humidity, and nutrient media on the germination of conidia.

POUZAR Z. (1979): Notes on taxonomy and nomenclature of Nummularia (Pyrenomycetes).  Česká Mykologie 33(4): 207-219   (published: 1979)
  abstract   The generic name Nummularia L.—R. et C. Tul. 1863 being a later homonym of Nummularia Hill 1756 should be replaced by the name Biscogniauxia O. Kuntze. The genus should be emended to include not only the majority of species in the sense of Miller (1961) but also species of the Hypoxylon nummularium (Bull. ex St.-Amans) Fr. group. A new species Biscogniauxia simplicior Pouz. spec. nov. is described which differs from B. repanda (Fr. ex J. C. Schmidt) O. Kuntze by simple (unilateral) germ slits of ascospores — the last species having double (bilateral) slits.

FRAGNER P. (1978): Yeasts in human material in our country and their differentiation. Part I.  Česká Mykologie 32(1): 32-42   (published: 1978)
  abstract   A diagnostic system for the determination of yeasts occurring in human material on our territory is presented. It summarizes our experiences gained with more than 15,000 cultures during the last 20 years. According to our procedures it is possible to fairly exactly determine approximately 98% of yeasts within 48 hours or earlier, presuming that pure cultures are at hand. The key is based primarily on assimilation of glucose, galactose, sucrose, maltose and lactose, potassium nitrate assimilation, and macroscopic and microscopic appearance of the cultures. Some groups also use auxanograms of additional carbon sources and zymograms.

  abstract   The life cycle of the brown rust of Couch grass from 3 Bohemian localities was studied. It was stated that there are at least 2 different physiologic races of the rust. One of them parasitizing Agropyrum × apiculatum in the mountains České středohoří is obligatorily heteroecious alternating with Thalictrum minus. In this respect it differs from 2 other collections on Agropyrum repens (originating from Central and South Bohemia) in which host alternation does not take place. Moreover, last mentioned races differ in their pathogenicity from the obligatorily heteroecious rust. For all urediniospore collections infection type on 33 grass species, 26 wheat varieties, 20 rye varieties, 1 barley variety and 4 wheat-couch grass hybrids and 2 wheat-rye hybrids was stated. Some species of Bromus and Couch grass were compatible. Wheats and their hybrids showed necrotic spots only. A part of rye plants inoculated produced uredinia of the susceptible type of infection.

  abstract   Recent mycological research in Slovakia has identified several ecologically valuable grassland habitats. Among them is a site near the village of Čierny Balog, which hosts a diverse assemblage of grassland fungi, including numerous species of waxcaps, club and coral fungi, pinkgills, and earthtongues. Notably, this locality represents a newly documented site of the rare species Microglossum pratense. A detailed characterisation of the site is provided, along with a comprehensive list of all known occurrences of this species. Until 2017, M. pratense had been recorded from only four localities. However, subsequent investigations have confirmed its presence at six additional sites in Slovakia and one in the Czech Republic. Furthermore, inventory list of noteworthy accompanying species of grassland fungi from the newly documented site near Čierny Balog is presented.

  abstract   Based on a long tradition of field research aimed at this group, stipitate hydnoid fungi belong to the best explored macromycetes in Czechia. However, following groundbreaking taxonomic changes emerging from recent molecular studies, previous knowledge of particular taxa and their features has been questioned. To resolve this issue, selected specimens of Czech hydnoids were sequenced to confirm their identity. Generally, the presence of 39 taxa of Boletopsis, Hydnellum, Phellodon, and Sarcodon in the Czech Republic was confirmed, including the recently described species Boletopsis mediterraneensis, Hydnellum bomiense, H. fagiscabrosum, H. rubidofuscum, Phellodon aquiloniniger, P. castaneoleucus, and two so far undescribed taxa of Boletopsis and Hydnellum, as well as the recently reported Hydnellum gracilipes, H. illudens, Phellodon secretus and Sarcodon quercinofibulatus. Ecological requirements of newly delimited species are specified based on collection data from Czech localities, and GlobalFungi data are presented to supplement the current knowledge of the global distribution of particular species. Taxonomic issues, identification limits in species complexes, ecology, and threats to the species are discussed in relevant cases. Several more species, documented from or probably present in Czechia but not sequenced yet, are commented as well.

  abstract   Thirty-four species of lichens and two species of lichenicolous fungi are reported for the first time from Ukraine, specifically from primeval Carpathian forests. Six genera, Absconditonia, Andreiomyces, Chicitaea, Elixia, Puttea, and Sporodophoron, are new to Ukraine. The identification of the species Absconditonia sublignicola, Buellia dives, Cliostomum haematommatis, Lecidella albida, Micarea flavoleprosa, M. isidioprasina, Mycoporum antecellens, Puttea exsequens, Rinodina willeyi, and Sporodophoron cretaceum was confirmed by DNA barcoding. The species Andreiomyces obtusaticus, Chicitaea cristinae, Cliostomum haematommatis, Lecidella albida, Lepra multipuncta, Micarea fallax, M. flavoleprosa, and Ochrolechia bahusiensis were identified using TLC. Additionally, Sporodophoron cretaceum is for the first time reported including fruitbodies. The globally rare epibryophytic species Gyalidea cylindrica is reported from the third locality in the world.

HROUDA P., KŘÍŽ M. (2024): Orthography of Pilatian names: establishing the correct epithets with regard to Latin and nomenclatural rules.   [Albert Pilát, code, genitive form, MycoBank, nomenclature, orthographic variant.]  Czech Mycology 76(2): 175-190   (published: 18th December, 2024)
  abstract   The contribution deals with the issue of specific or subspecific epithets published by various authors in different forms, alberti/albertii or pilati/pilatii, and currently mostly maintained with the termination -ii in official repositories for names, especially the MycoBank and Index Fungorum databases. A view into the protologues of each name dedicated to Albert Pilát clearly shows that different terminations have been applied in different periods, and that relevant recommendations of the International Code of Nomenclature have also evolved over time. The orthographic variants alberti and pilati are in principle correct, based on the Latinised form of Pilát’s full name. Thus the original names of the involved taxa are to be maintained or resurrected if such epithets were given in their protologues. However, names later formed with the epithets albertii or pilatii appear to be in accordance with the provisions in force at the time. For a complete view of the topic, some examples of seemingly similar epithets created in different ways are mentioned for comparison, and the issue of interpretation of relevant recommendations of the Code is discussed in general. Finally, different approaches to nomenclatural stability are stated as a matter to be resolved in the upcoming Madrid Code.

  abstract   Octospora pulchrispora Sochorová et Eckstein is described as a new species based on finds from the Czech Republic. It features a remarkable ascospore ornamentation formed by low, branching, cyanophilous ridges. It parasitises the acrocarpous moss Cynodontium polycarpon (Rhabdoweisiaceae) and induces galls on the rhizoids. In the phylogenetic analysis based on the LSU, SSU and EF1α loci, O. pulchrispora formed a highly supported clade with Octospora gyalectoides agg., O. leucoloma, O. gemmicola, O. axillaris, O. excipulata, O. bridei and two undescribed Octospora species.

  abstract   Bryophilous myxomycetes are found mainly in humid mountainous regions, particularly in the Ukrainian Carpathians. Over the last three seasons, three species from this group (Colloderma oculatum, Diderma tigrinum, and Lamproderma sp.) have been discovered in Slobozhanskyi National Nature Park, a lowland region in the forest-steppe zone of north-eastern Ukraine. These finds indicate an expansion of the distribution range of bryophilous myxomycetes beyond their typical montane and boreal habitats. The unidentified species of the genus Lamproderma, related to L. muscicola, exhibits distinct morphological and molecular characteristics sufficient to consider it a separate species.

  abstract   In 2015, during a visit to Řeka Nature Reserve, an interesting earth tongue fungus was found in a fen meadow. It was later identified as Hemileucoglossum pusillum, a recently described species. Its occurrence on the site was also confirmed in 2021, when abundant material was collected. In the Czech Republic, it is the only known locality of this rare species, previously reported from Slovakia, Norway and Spain only. Its identity was verified both morphologically and molecularly by sequencing the ITS and LSU regions of nuclear ribosomal DNA. Its macro- and microscopic characters are presented and the variability, distribution, ecology and phenology of the species are discussed. A Czech name is proposed for the species.

DIGRA S., NONZOM S. (2023): New record of novel endophyte Nigrograna hydei from the Northern Himalayas, India.   [sterile mycelium, rare, taxonomy, cold desert, Kargil.]  Czech Mycology 75(2): 105-115   (published: 3rd July, 2023)
  abstract   The Northern Himalayas are an exceptionally unique and diverse mountain range with respect to flora, fauna and funga. However, most of the region has been poorly explored. During a mycological survey, a rare endophyte was isolated from healthy leaves of Elaeagnus angustifolia. The species was identified as Nigrograna hydei based on cultural, micro-morphological, and molecular characters. The specimen was recovered as a sterile mycelium and despite trying various sporulation-inducing methods, the isolate failed to sporulate. Therefore, molecular characterisation based on the sequences of both the ITS and LSU region of nuclear ribosomal DNA followed by phylogenetic analysis confirmed the identity of the taxon. So far, this species has only been reported from Thailand and China. This finding adds another record to the world distribution of the species and is the first report from the Indian subcontinent. It also expands our knowledge on its ecology through its association as an endophyte with a new host, Elaeagnus, inhabiting a cold desert in Ladakh.

KRUPODOROVA T., BARSHTEYN V., KIZITSKA T., RATUSHNYAK V., BLUME Y. (2023): Antagonistic activity of selected macromycetes against two harmful micromycetes.   [ascomycetes, Aspergillus niger, basidiomycetes, dual-culture, Penicillium polonicum.]  Czech Mycology 75(1): 85-100   (published: 23rd June, 2023)
  abstract   Competition between 31 macromycete species and two harmful micromycetes Aspergillus niger and Penicillium polonicum was evaluated using dual-culture plate assay. All investigated fungi, except for Inonotus obliquus and Lepista luscina, possessed different levels of antagonistic activity against the tested micromycetes. Hypsizygus marmoreus and Lyophyllum shimeji were inactive against A. niger. Morchella esculenta and Oxyporus obducens were passive in the case of co-growth with P. polonicum. The study of fungal interactions showed variability in types of reactions and level of their visualisation. Co-cultivation of the studied species resulted in the following reactions: deadlock after mycelial contact and at a distance, partial or complete replacement after initial deadlock on contact. In general, the studied macromycetes showed moderate activity against the two micromycetes, as 11 species showed active and 7 species moderate antagonism. Results revealed higher antagonistic activity of macromycetes against P. polonicum than in A. niger co-cultures. Wood-decaying species Ganoderma lucidum and Trametes versicolor were the most active fungi against the two tested micromycetes with a maximal antagonism index. These findings provide valuable insights which can be further explored by means of in vivo assays to find a suitable agent for the biocontrol of diseases or spoilage caused by A. niger and P. polonicum.

GRISHKAN I., TEMINA M. (2023): Diversity of microfungal communities inside saxicolous lichens from Nahal Oren, Mount Carmel, Israel.   [endolichenic fungi, lichen thallus, melanised fungi, microclimatic contrast, rock surface.]  Czech Mycology 75(1): 15-34   (published: 28th March, 2023)   Electronic supplement
  abstract   In this study, we examined the endolichenic fungal communities of saxicolous lichens covering the rocks in the Nahal Oren valley, northern Israel. A total of 60 fungal species belonging to 35 genera were isolated from six lichen species collected in the summer and winter on the south-facing slope (SFS) and north-facing slope (NFS) of the valley. We verified that rocks serve as a possible source for the formation of endolichenic communities because communities colonising lichen thalli and the rock surface shared 39% of species and clustered together on the SFS. On the NFS, with a comparatively favourable microclimate, lichen thalli abundantly harboured typical soil fungi such as Clonostachys rosea and Fusarium spp. in winter and summer, respectively. At the same time, more severe environmental conditions on the SFS facilitated the prevalence of melanised fungi with thick-walled and multicellular spores irrespective of season. The lowest species richness and isolate densities of endolichenic communities were registered in the thalli of Collema cristatum. This decrease, especially expressed in the summer, was probably associated with the antifungal effect of substances produced by its cyanobiont, as well as with the heavy dehydration of thalli during the dry season.

  abstract   The article provides an update on the dung-inhabiting members of the Sporormiaceae in Ukraine. Overall, 26 species of Sporormia and the Preussia/Sporormiella species complex have been recorded in the country to date. Based on examination of specimens collected in 2007–2020, we report one species of Sporormia (S. fimetaria), two of Preussia s. str. (P. fleischhakii, P. funiculata) and 11 of Sporormiella (S. affinis, S. commutata, S. grandispora, S. heptamera, S. kansensis, S. leporina, S. longisporopsis, S. megalospora, S. muskokensis, S. octomera and S. pulchella). Of these, the genus Sporormia and four species of the other genera (P. fleischhakii, S. affinis, S. commutata and S. longisporopsis) are newly recorded in Ukraine. For all fourteen species, their morphological characters are described, illustrated and discussed; occurrence records, habitat and distribution data are also provided. This study extends the distribution ranges of these fungi eastwards within Europe and contributes to their substrate list.

KOUKOL O., MAGDALINOU E., PÁNKOVÁ H., BOROVIČKA J., MÜNZBERGOVÁ Z. (2022): Do microclimatic conditions in two forest types on serpentine bedrock affect culturable microfungi in pine litter needles?   [fungal diversity, ITS rDNA, temperature and humidity, Pinus sylvestris.]  Czech Mycology 74(2): 181-194   (published: 24th November, 2022)
  abstract   Microfungi colonising coniferous needles in litter were intensively studied in previous decades, but forest stands on serpentine soils have been overlooked. Also, the effects of microclimatic conditions on fungal communities in coniferous litter are unknown. In our study, we aimed to characterise communities of culturable microfungi colonising pine litter needles collected from two types of Scots pine forest growing on serpentine bedrock, i.e. dense forest with relatively stable microclimatic conditions and open-canopy forest on exposed rock with highly variable conditions. The composition of their fungal communities was analysed in respect to microclimatic conditions at the collection sites. Using a combination of phenotypic and molecular data (sequences of ITS rDNA), 35 taxa were distinguished in 1078 fungal colonies recorded, out of which 25 were identified to the species level. Fungal communities were most affected by needle type (litter vs. fermentation layer) followed by maximum temperature during the previous five months. Interestingly, a higher number and abundance of species were recorded at the warmer site, in the open-canopy forest. Dominant fungi recorded in this study (Desmazierella acicola, Phacidium lacerum and Scleroconidioma sphagnicola) were mostly identical to those recorded in previous studies and the occurrence of less abundant taxa previously not recorded in pine litter suggests that the uppermost litter layer represents an important reservoir of fungal diversity.

EL-NAGDY M.A., ALI E.H., RAWAA A.M., EL-GARNI S. (2022): Comparative study of the diversity of zoosporic fungi (oomycetes and chytrids) in freshwater bodies in Assiut Governorate, Egypt and Jeddah Governorate, Saudi Arabia.   [occurrence, regional distribution, heterotrophic straminipiles, Saprolegnia, Achlya, Allomyces, water characteristics.]  Czech Mycology 74(2): 153-179   (published: 23rd November, 2022)   Electronic supplement
  abstract   The diversity, occurrence and regional distribution of heterotrophic straminipiles and true zoosporic fungi (oomycetes and chytrids) recovered from freshwater bodies in two geographically and ecologically distant regions, the governorates of Assiut, Egypt and Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, were extensively investigated and compared in this study. For this purpose, one hundred surface water samples were collected from different localities of freshwater bodies in each governorate during the period from January 2009 to March 2013. In addition, the correlation between physicochemical characteristics (temperature, pH, total soluble salts and organic matter content) of the samples as abiotic factors affecting the diversity and occurrence of zoosporic mycobiota were considered during this research. The results indicate that Assiut Governorate is richer and more diverse in taxa of zoosporic fungi (22 identified and 3 unidentified species classified into 8 genera) than Jeddah Governorate (9 identified and 2 unidentified species belonging to 4 genera). The most dominant genera recovered from the samples were Saprolegnia and Achlya, but these genera showed various frequencies of occurrence. Generally, the majority of the prevalent isolated species of zoosporic fungi were different in the two regions, and identical genera and species showed clear differences in terms of occurrence and distribution. An inverse correlation was revealed between the temperature of the samples and the diversity of isolated zoosporic fungal species. An inconsistent trend was found between the pH of the samples and species diversity: while the correlation was positive in Assiut Governorate, it was negative in Jeddah Governorate. The total soluble salts and organic matter content of the samples in the two governorates correlated positively with the diversity of isolated species.

(2022): Volatile organic compounds emitted by mycoparasitic fungi Hypomyces perniciosus and Cladobotryum mycophilum suppress the growth of Agaricus bisporus.   [antifungal, cobweb, ethanol, wet bubble, white button mushroom.]  Czech Mycology 74(2): 141-152   (published: 14th November, 2022)
  abstract   Hypomyces perniciosus and Cladobotryum mycophilum are mycoparasitic fungi infecting Agaricus bisporus and causing wet bubble and cobweb diseases, respectively. In this work, the role of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted by these fungal mycoparasites in the suppression of A. bisporus was investigated. The VOCs of H. perniciosus and C. mycophilum effectively reduced the mycelial growth of A. bisporus by 60% and 73% after 5 days of incubation, respectively, compared to that of the control as assessed by the two-sealed-base-plates assay. Further, the VOCs of H. perniciosus and C. mycophilum were collected in a headspace solid-phase microextraction procedure, and their components analysed by means of gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Ethanol was identified as the major volatile component in H. perniciosus and C. mycophilum. Ethanol vapour significantly retarded the growth of A. bisporus in an in vitro assay. The results of this study suggest that ethanol produced by H. perniciosus and C. mycophilum could be involved in the suppression of A. bisporus.

  abstract   The endophytic mycobiota inhabiting branches of Quercus petraea from two localities in the Křivoklát area, and branches, twigs and acorns of Quercus robur from one locality near the town of Semily were studied (all sites in the Czech Republic). Seventeen fungal taxa were isolated from branches of Q. petraea. Dominant fungi were found to be Colpoma quercinum and Phoma sp. as well as sterile dark mycelium and a black yeast-like fungus close to Sarcinomyces crustaceus. Eighteen fungal taxa were found in samples of aerial parts in Quercus robur. The most frequently isolated taxa were Pezicula cinnamomea, Colpoma quercinum, Alternaria alternata agg. and Acremonium sp.

  abstract   Opportunistic and nosocomial human infections by various Candida species are of serious global health concern especially due to the spread of drug resistant strains and lack of treatment options. One of the main problems of bioprospecting for novel antimycotics is the rediscovery of already known molecules. To reduce the chances of such rediscoveries, one option is to search for unique metabolites from microbes of less studied and extreme habitats. Thirty-five fungal strains were isolated from solar salterns and the methanolic extracts of their culture supernatants were tested for the inhibition of human-pathogenic Candida albicans, C. dubliniensis, C. glabrata, C. lusitaniae, C. tropicalis, and two clinical isolates of C. auris. Of the fungi screened, two, viz. Curvularia nodosa and Fusarium cf. foetens, showed significant growth inhibition of all the Candida species. Although the effective molecules were not identified in this preliminary screening, it highlights the importance of bioprospecting fungi from extreme environments which have been neglected in the search for novel antibiotics.

  abstract   During an ongoing study of freshwater fungi colonising decaying submerged wood in Egypt, two species of Canalisporium, namely C. grenadoideum and C. jinghongense, were recorded for the first time in Egypt and Africa. These two species are described and illustrated herein. The conidial morphology of the two species was compared with that of others elsewhere in the world. The asexual morph of C. grenadoideum was recorded and described for the first time on natural substrate in the present study. A key to Canalisporium species in Egypt is provided.

MIRZAEE M.R., PANJEKEH N., SALARI M., ZARE R., PIRNIA M., SARANI S.A. (2021): Pustula lactucae sp. nov. (Albuginales, Oomycota), a new species causing white blister rust disease on Lactuca undulata.   [Asteridae, obligate biotroph, Peronosporomycetes, SEM, semiarid region.]  Czech Mycology 73(2): 151-162   (published: 22nd October, 2021)
  abstract   During 2016 and 2018, Lactuca undulata plants showing symptoms typical of white blister rust were collected in the province of South Khorasan, Iran. Phylogenetic analysis resolved the position of specimens in the genus Pustula. The specimens were characterised by oospore size and ornamentation, and size of secondary sporangia. In addition to morphology, phylogenetic analysis also suggests a new species for the genus distinct from other established Pustula species, which is described here as Pustula lactucae sp. nov. Scanning electron microscope illustrations are also provided.

  abstract   The article reports new data on the occurrence of three species of apothecial ascomycetes of the Pyronemataceae family collected in the Carpathian Biosphere Reserve. Aleurina subvirescens and Smardaea purpurea were found in Ukraine for the first time, Ramsbottomia asperior was previously found by us also at other localities in Ukraine, including the Carpathian Biosphere Reserve, but without any details and illustrations. For each species a description of the Ukrainian specimens, collection data, macro- and micrographs are provided here. In addition to morphological characters, ecological characteristics and data on the general distribution of these species are briefly discussed.

  abstract   Two recent records of the rare fungus Dentipratulum bialoviesense from Boubínský prales virgin forest in the Czech Republic were documented morphologically and molecularly. One collection from the type locality, Białowieża virgin forest in Poland, was used for morphological comparison.The Boubínský prales collections agree with the Białowieża collection in macro- and micromorphological characters and ecology, namely their growth on decaying wood of Picea abies in natural forest. Simultaneously, Boubínský prales collections clearly differ in their ITS rDNA region from the only published Dentipratulum sequence based on a collection from France, originally identified as D. bialoviesense but currently representing a paratype of the recently described species D. crystallinum. Consequently, the Boubínský prales sequences most likely represent the first sequence data of D. bialoviesense. Notes on the taxonomy and ecology of D. bialoviesense and D. crystallinum are added, suggesting that the identity of all collections should be verified molecularly in future, especially those from wood of broadleaved trees in France. Photographs of dried basidiomata and key micromorphological characters of D. bialoviesense from Boubínský prales and Białowieża are provided.

DEEPTHI A.S., RAY J.G. (2021): Ecological relevance of the endophytic fungal diversity in velamen roots of tropical epiphytic orchids.   [epiphytes, Orchidaceae, root-associated endophytes, Trichoderma, Endomelanconiopsis, Lasiodiplodia.]  Czech Mycology 73(1): 91-108   (published: 17th May, 2021)
  abstract   The velamen roots in epiphytic orchids are rather complex, and their environmental role remains poorly understood. Fungal associates are known in the velamen roots of tropical orchids, but the magnitude of their diversity in particular species remains unknown. The primary aim of this work was to explore endophytic fungal species associated with the velamen roots of three tropical epiphytic orchids. Velamen roots were collected from 30 plants of Rhynchostylis retusa and 25 plants each of Epidendrum radicans and Oncidium sphacelatum. Endophytic fungi were isolated from 2160 segments. Twenty species of velamen-root-associated fungal endophytes were separated with a culture technique. The isolated strains were grouped into morphotypes, subsequently identified morphologically and by means of ITS DNA barcoding. Ascomycota were the dominant group with 18 species. Trichoderma cf. asperellum, Endomelanconiopsis endophytica, Trichoderma cf. atroviride and Lasiodiplodia theobromae were the most frequent taxa isolated. A majority of the identified fungi were common to more than one orchid. Colonisation rate, isolation rate, Shannon-Wiener diversity index, species richness and species evenness of the endophytic fungi from different orchids were studied and were tested for significance with the Kruskal-Wallis H test. The colonisation rate and isolation rate of fungal associates in the velamen roots were found to be distinctly the lowest in Rhynchostylis retusa.

RAMSHAJ Q., RUSEVSKA K., TOFILOVSKA S., KARADELEV M. (2021): Checklist of macrofungi from oak forests in the Republic of Kosovo.   [fungi, taxa, Balkan Peninsula, diversity, ecology, rare species.]  Czech Mycology 73(1): 21-42   (published: 12th February, 2021)   Electronic supplement
  abstract   In the period from 2017 to 2019 a survey of the diversity of fungi in oak forests in the Republic of Kosovo was conducted. The survey included 31 localities, mainly in Quercetum frainetto-cerris and Querco-Carpinetum orientalis communities. As a result of the fieldwork performed in various seasons, a first checklist of fungi from oak forests in the country is provided. A total of 220 taxa (219 species and one forma) were identified. The majority of the identified taxa belong to Basidiomycota (206) and only 14 species to Ascomycota. The paper provides a list of all recorded species with data on locality, altitude, time of collection, forest association and type of substrate. Distribution and ecology of selected rare or threatened species are briefly discussed.

SANTIAGO K.A.A., DELA CRUZ T.E.E., TING A.S.Y. (2021): Diversity and bioactivity of endolichenic fungi in Usnea lichens of the Philippines.   [antibacterial, anticandidal, antioxidant, lichen-associated, Sagada.]  Czech Mycology 73(1): 1-19   (published: 14th January, 2021)   Electronic supplement
  abstract   Endolichenic fungi (ELF; asymptomatic microorganisms living inside healthy lichen thalli) were isolated from three Usnea species, namely U. baileyi, U. bismolliuscula and U. pectinata, collected near the town of Sagada, Philippines. A total of 101 ELF were recovered representing 12 genera (classes Sordariomycetes and Eurotiomycetes), with the genera Nemania (50.5%, 51 isolates) and Xylaria (22.8%, 23 isolates) being the most abundant. Comparative analyses on the antimicrobial activities of lichens and ELF revealed that lichen crude extracts were effective against the Gram-positive bacterium Staphylococcus aureus and the yeast Candida albicans, while ELF crude extracts were effective against S. aureus, C. albicans and the Gram-negative bacterium Escherichia coli. The broad-spectrum nature of ELF has provided medicinal and industrial advantages over the slow-growing lichens as shown on their respective bioactivities. Extracts from ELF also had a higher total flavonoid content (TFC; 6.29–85.69 mg QE/g of extract) and stronger antioxidant activities (IC₅₀: 0.57–19.63 mg/ml) than lichen-derived extracts. Although only culturable ELF were identified, this study provides the first evaluation of the diversity and bioactivities of culturable ELF from fruticose lichens of the genus Usnea in the Philippines.

HOLEC J., ZEHNÁLEK P. (2020): Taxonomy of Hohenbuehelia auriscalpium, H. abietina, H. josserandii, and one record of H. tremula.   [fungi, morphology, DNA study, ecology, distribution, Europe.]  Czech Mycology 72(2): 199-220   (published: 8th October, 2020)
  abstract   The taxonomy of Hohenbuehelia auriscalpium (Fungi, Basidiomycota, Pleurotaceae) and its putative synonym H. abietina is evaluated based on material from natural forests in the Czech Republic and Ukraine. The rare species H. josserandii is described in detail based on rich collections from Boubínský prales virgin forest in the Czech Republic. All specimens were studied both morphologically and molecularly (ITS and 28S nrDNA, EF1-α). The recently published conclusion that H. auriscalpium and H. abietina are conspecific was confirmed. The species grows on wood of deciduous trees as well as conifers. The thickness of the gelatinous pileus layer and the presence or absence of pileocystidia proved to be taxonomically irrelevant. One collection from the studied dataset significantly deviates by its DNA sequences and may represent a separate taxon close to H. auriscalpium. Another collection originally identified as H. auriscalpium turned out to be H. tremula. A higher range of some morphological characters was found in H. josserandii as compared with published data. The species prefers wood of Abies alba, namely branches of trees which fell 2–3 years ago.

  abstract   The pleosporalean anamorph Hermatomyces amphisporus is recorded for the first time from the U.S.A. based on several specimens collected on Sabal minor (Arecaceae) during mycological surveys carried out in the state of Texas. Phylogenetic analyses of novel DNA sequence data belonging to four nuclear regions (ITS rDNA, EF1-α, RBP2, β-TUB) revealed its taxonomic position within the monotypic family Hermatomycetaceae (Pleosporales, Dothideomycetes) in congruence with its morphological features. A description of the fungus in culture is provided here for the first time. Interestingly, apart from the lenticular conidia, also cylindrical conidia were formed together with chlamydosporous structures and pycnidia producing hyaline, nonseptate conidia. Further notes on the morphology on natural substrate, ecology and distribution in the U.S.A. and worldwide of this rare fungus are provided. The recently introduced species H. bauhiniae, which presents morphological characteristics different from the typical Hermatomyces spp., is found to be based on a confusing description, thus a different genus should be found to accommodate it.

  abstract   Aphyllophoroid fungi growing on Juniperus oblonga on the Gunib Plateau (1630–1910 m a.s.l.) were studied. An annotated list of 18 species in 14 genera of Agaricomycetes is presented. Among them, 17 species are recorded for the first time for the Plateau. Amphinema byssoides, Brevicellicium olivascens, Heterobasidion annosum s. str., Hyphodontia arguta, Lyomyces juniperi, Peniophora junipericola, Radulomyces confluens, Rhizoctonia fusispora, R. ochracea, Steccherinum fimbriatum, Tomentella atramentaria, T. badia and Tyromyces lacteus are reported as new to the Republic of Dagestan and the North-Eastern Caucasus. Rhizoctonia ochracea is listed for the first time for the Caucasus and for the third time in Russia.

JAMALI S.

  abstract   In spring 2016, stem canker symptoms were observed on most Rosa hybrida plants in greenhouses of Kermanshah Province in Western Iran. Initial symptoms of the disease were brown necrotic lesions, mostly 8–10 mm long, on stems. The lesions eventually depressed and expanded to a long ellipse, resulting in yellowing and wilting of the foliage. Fungal colonies resembling those of Paraconiothyrium species were obtained from diseased tissues. Based on morphological and DNA sequence analysis of the internal transcribed spacers ITS1 and ITS2 and the 5.8S gene the fungal isolates were identified as Paraconiothyrium fuckelii. This is the first report of stem canker disease caused by this species in Iran. Pathogenicity tests were carried out on potted Rosa hybrida plants and detached branches under controlled conditions. Pathogenicity tests demonstrated that the fungus is able to infect and cause canker symptoms on inoculated branches of healthy plants after four weeks. The pathogen was re-isolated from all inoculated plants after observation of the symptoms, thus meeting Koch’s postulates.

  abstract   Patterns of frequency, biodiversity and seasonality of fungi-like organisms and true zoosporic fungi in relationship with some abiotic factors of two water bodies exposed to various effluents at Assiut Governorate (Upper Egypt) were investigated. Thirty-four species related to ten genera were isolated from the El-Zinnar irrigation canal and the El-Ibrahimia canal, which receive treated sewage water and the industrial effluents of a factory for oils and detergents, respectively, using the baiting technique during four seasons (from winter 2017 to autumn 2018). The highest fungal diversity was recorded during winter, followed by autumn and spring, whereas summer was the lowest in species diversity. Achlya, Dictyuchus, Allomyces and Pythium were the prevalent genera, whereas Brevilegnia and Pythiopsis were the least frequent ones. Some fungal taxa were present throughout the year while others were highly restricted, occurring in only one season. The species composition and community structure of the heterotrophic straminipiles and true zoosporic fungi varied in spatial distribution and exhibited seasonal variations, probably influenced by particular abiotic water characteristics, sampling site and season. Sites which directly receive either treated sewage water or industrial effluents were the poorest in straminipiles and true zoosporic fungi, and can be regarded as stressful environments where some abiotic parameters were excessive. Seasonality and biodiversity of the surveyed organisms are mainly dependent on water temperature, conductivity, most of the determined cations and anions, but pH did not exhibit any considerable impact. It is assumed that the existence of some fungal taxa at polluted sites may have a potential source of fungi beneficial for bioremediation and xenobiotic transformation.

  abstract   Recent records of lichenicolous fungi from Ternopil Oblast are provided. Twenty-nine species are reported as new to the region in the present study. Three of them, Didymocyrtis foliaceiphila, Stagonospora exasperatulae and Tremella everniae, are new to Ukraine. Cladosporium licheniphilum, Henfellra muriformis, Illosporiopsis christiansenii, Laetisaria lichenicola, Lichenoconium pyxidatae and Refractohilum intermedium are new to the forest-steppe zone of Ukraine.Punctelia subrudecta is a new host species for Didymocyrtis foliaceiphila. Notes on the currently known distribution of selected species in other Ukrainian regions are provided.

  abstract   Aureobasidium mangrovei was isolated from plant debris in Muscat, Sultanate of Oman. The isolate was characterised and compared with related species of this genus for its growth, colony morphology, and micromorphology. Molecular analysis of the LSU and ITS rDNA supported final identification of the isolate. Our record is the second find in the world and the first in the Sultanate of Oman. DNA sequences of the isolated strain showed 99% (ITS) and 100% (LSU) similarity, respectively, with the sequences of the type isolates from Iran, as well as similar growth and colony morphology. A complete microscopic characterisation, which was not described for the Iranian strain, was made. The Iranian strains were isolated from saline habitats of the protected Hara forests, while our strain was isolated from the leaves of freshwater habitats. A comparison of growth characteristics of both strains under different conditions is provided.

  abstract   Over 100 specimens deposited under Melastiza in the PRM herbarium (Prague, Czech Republic) were revised. They were identified as M. carbonicola, M. cornubiensis, M. flavorubens and M. contorta (84 specimens), remained unidentified (1 specimen) or were included in Scutellinia (23 specimens). Most of the previously published differences in hair and ascospore characters between M. carbonicola and M. cornubiensis were confirmed based on the studied material. Lists of revised specimens with collection data are given. The lists show that some differences in distribution between M. carbonicola and M. cornubiensis probably exist, but it is also taken into account that these are finds by various collectors who may prefer visiting different habitats. A final decision on the identity of M. carbonicola and M. cornubiensis is not made due to a lack of molecular data.

  abstract   During the years 2013–2015, the occurrence of fungi causing postharvest diseases of apples was evaluated in three apple orchards with integrated and organic production systems in the Czech Republic. The postharvest disease fungi were more frequently recorded in fruits from organically cultivated apple trees (average 29.97%) than those from integrated production (17.67%). This difference is statistically significant. Neofabraea, Penicillium, Alternaria and a sterile grey mycelium were the most frequently recorded taxa in apples grown in organic and integrated production systems. There were also significant differences in the frequency of occurrence of the most frequent fungal taxa between years. In 2013 and 2014, Neofabraea was the most frequently isolated genus in both cultivation systems, whereas in 2015, Penicillium was the most frequently recorded genus also in both cultivation systems, which was likely caused by the low precipitation in the 2015 growing season.

  abstract   All groups of macrofungi were recorded on 32 large fallen trunks of pedunculate oak (Quercus robur) in various decay stages in the strictly protected zone of Białowieża National Park, Poland. The total number of species was 187 with 4–38 species per trunk. The mycobiota of individual trunks was unique, consisting of a variable set of several frequent species, a high number of infrequent to rare ones, and a considerable proportion of mycorrhizal fungi and species preferring conifer wood. Relations between trunk parameters, surrounding vegetation and fungal occurrences were analysed using multivariate statistical methods. The number of fungal species per trunk was significantly correlated with trunk orientation, which reflects the heat load via forest canopy gap, trunk size parameters, percentage of bark cover and contact with the soil. The species-richest trunks were those covered by bark, of larger volume (thick, long), not exposed to heat from afternoon sun, but, simultaneously, with lower canopy cover. Orientation (azimuth) of the fallen trunks proved to be significant also for the fungal species composition of a particular trunk, which also reflected trunk size characteristics, its moss/bark cover and contact with the soil. Presence of some dominants (Ganoderma applanatum, Mycena inclinata, Kretzschmaria deusta, Xylobolus frustulatus) had a significant effect on fungal community composition. Some herbs requiring nutrient-rich soils occurred in the vicinity of trunks with a larger contact area with the soil and in later stages of decay. The process of oak trunk decay in relation to fungi and surrounding vegetation is outlined.

  abstract   The paper provides data on dung-inhabiting ascomycetes which were collected in 2015 during a mycological survey in the Carpathian Biosphere Reserve (Rakhiv District, Zakarpattya Region).Twenty-five species belonging to the Pezizomycetes, Sordariomycetes, Dothideomycetes and Leotiomycetes were found, 19 of which were new to the Ukrainian Carpathians. Schizothecium dakotense and Sordaria lappae were collected in Ukraine for the first time. Substrates, localities, data on general distribution and some taxonomic notes to these species are presented. The species new to Ukraine are described, and interesting finds are illustrated.

PARVEEN S., WANI A.H., BHAT M.Y., PALA S.A.

  abstract   Two medicinal plants, Berberis lyceum and Rumex obtusifolius, were screened for the presence of various phytochemicals and for their antifungal activity. The phytochemical tests carried out in the present study demonstrated the presence of phenols, alkaloids, tannins, flavonoids, quinones and terpenoids in the plant extracts. Therefore, ethanolic and aqueous extracts of these medicinal plants were evaluated for their antifungal activity against Penicillium chrysogenum, Aspergillus niger, Cladosporium herbarum and Trichothecium roseum, using the agar well diffusion method. All the plant extracts at different concentrations showed significant antifungal activity against the tested fungi. Of the two plant extracts, B. lyceum showed stronger antifungal activity than R. obtusifolius. Ethanolic extracts of both plants showed stronger mycelial growth inhibition than aqueous extracts. The ethanolic extracts of B. lyceum showed the strongest antifungal activity against Penicillium chrysogenum (inhibition zone diameter of 41 mm) followed by the ethanolic extracts of R. obtusifolius against P. chrysogenum (inhibition zone diameter 39 mm). Hence, it is concluded that these medicinal plants have a broad-spectrum antifungal activity and are a potential alternative to reduce various fungal pathogens.

  abstract   Cultivation of edible fungi, notably Pleurotus species, have been considered as alternative food supplement due to their functional qualities. In this study, the effect of different substrates on the yield, biological efficiency and proximate composition of Pleurotus spp. was evaluated. Proximate analysis of the substrates and cultivated mushrooms was carried out using standard methods. Pleurotus ostreatus harvested from Terminalia ivorensis and Triplochiton scleroxylon had the highest yield of 46.97 g and 45.81 g, respectively, with a biological efficiency (BE) of 48.83% and 48.40%, which were significantly different from other mushrooms cultivated on wood dusts.Pleurotus pulmonarius cultivated on T. ivorensis and Gossypium hirsutum had a BE of 43.54 % and 42.28%, which are similar values to the BE of P. “florida” (43.09 %) cultivated on Ceiba pentandra.Pleurotus ostreatus cultivated on Terminalia ivorensis and Alstonia congensis have the highest protein and crude fibre contents of 30.09% and 21.06%, respectively. Pleurotus “florida” harvested from Gossypium hirsutum, Persea americana and T. ivorensis have the highest values of moisture (4.91%), fat (3.96%) and ash (13.98%), respectively, while P. pulmonarius cultivated on Ficus mucuso has a carbohydrate content of 57.66%. The cultivated Pleurotus mushrooms on wood dusts are means of providing foods that are richly endowed with nutritive components, which can be supplemented to low dietary foods to eliminate malnutrition.

(2018): Diversity of yeasts and filamentous fungi in mud from hypersaline and freshwater bodies in Egypt.   [fungal diversity, alkalinity, Wadi El-Natrun, lakes, Ibrahimia Canal, River Nile, molecular characterisation, ITS]  Czech Mycology 70(1): 1-32   (published: 26th January, 2018)
  abstract   The diversity of yeasts and filamentous fungi in muds from hypersaline alkaline lakes of Wadi ElNatrun and fresh water of the Nile River and Ibrahimia Canal was evaluated. The mean pH of saline water mud was 9.21, but fresh water mud registered 8.07. A total of 193 species (two varieties were distinguished in two of them) belonging to 67 genera were recovered from both muds investigated on DRBC (55 genera, 164 species), DG18 (36 genera, 117 species) and MY50G (23 genera, 76 species) media. From these, 17 species assigned to 12 genera were yeasts and 176 species and 2 varieties assigned to 55 genera were filamentous fungi. The highest numbers of fungal propagules were recovered on DRBC from freshwater mud, while the lowest on MY50G from saline water mud. Yeasts constituted a small proportion of all propagules from the two mud types on all three media, whereas filamentous fungi were the major component. However, freshwater mud samples yielded higher numbers of yeast genera and species using all three media. Candida was common in freshwater mud and rare in saline water mud, while Meyerozyma and Rhodotorula were infrequent in both muds. The remaining yeast species were recovered from freshwater mud only. Aspergillus (46 species) was the most common genus of filamentous fungi encountered in all samples, ranging in frequency from 39.82% to 96.62%; A. terreus, A. flavipes and A. niger dominated in both types of mud. Cladosporium (9 species), Fusarium (8 species), Penicillium (18 species) and Scopulariopsis (7 species) were encountered in both types of mud. Notably, 47 filamentous species were isolated only on the media with lower water activity (DG18, MY50G).

PARRA L.A., DELLA MAGGIORA M., SIMONINI G., TRASSINELLI R. (2017): Nomenclatural study and current status of the names Boletus emileorum, Boletus crocipodius and Boletus legaliae (Boletales), including typification of the first two.   [fungi, nomenclature, Leccinellum crocipodium, Baorangia emileorum, Rubro-boletus legaliae]  Czech Mycology 69(2): 163-192   (published: 24th November, 2017)
  abstract   A comprehensive nomenclatural study including dates of valid publication, etymology and original spellings of the names Boletus “emilei”, Boletus “crokipodius” and Boletus “le-galiae” led us to correct them in accordance with the current Melbourne Code. Consequently, any current name based on these incorrect basionyms also has to be corrected. The original epithet emilei has been corrected by many authors, but never to its correct spelling emileorum according to the data of the protologue. As for the epithet crokipodium, all authors consulted have corrected it to crocipodium without any explanation, and its correct etymology has never been conveniently explained after its original publication by Letellier. We also provide good evidence on the correct date of publication of this name, always misdated in the literature. The epithet le-galiae (with a hyphen), unanimously corrected to legaliae has been very recently resurrected, but according to our nomenclatural study the correct spelling is legaliae. The valid publication and taxonomic status of the current combinations Leccinellum crocipodium, Baorangia emileorum, and Rubroboletus legaliae have also been studied. Finally, all the previous typifications of the three names have been revisited and we conclude that those of Boletus crocipodius and Boletus emileorum have not been effective and, therefore, a new typification is carried out here.

ŠAFRÁNKOVÁ I., HOLKOVÁ L. (2017): First record of Pythium mastophorum on celery seedlings in the Czech Republic.   [soil pathogen, Apium graveolens var. rapaceum, root rot]  Czech Mycology 69(2): 133-142   (published: 11th October, 2017)
  abstract   Pythium root rot of celery seedlings was found in greenhouses in South Moravia in the spring of 2015. Based on morphological characteristics and rDNA-ITS sequences, the causal organism was identified as Pythium mastophorum. The pot inoculation test demonstrated that P. mastophorum was pathogenic to celery and parsley. This is the first report of Pythium mastophorum causing stunting and yellowing leaves, discolouration and rot of root tips and possible plant death of celery in the Czech Republic.

  abstract   Two rare species of Phlebia s.l. (Meruliaceae) with hydnoid hymenophore are described and illustrated. Macro- and microscopic characters of Phlebia acanthocystis and P. bispora are described and supplemented with photographs of in situ fruitbodies and line drawings. Distribution and ecology in Europe are discussed for both species. They are compared to similar taxa found in Europe.

ABDEL-SATER M.A., MOUBASHER A.H., SOLIMAN Z.S.M. (2016): Diversity of filamentous and yeast fungi in soil of citrus and grapevine plantations in the Assiut region, Egypt.   [Mycobiota, biodiversity, phenotypic and biochemical characterisation, ITS sequence, Coniochaeta canina, Aspergillus stella-maris]  Czech Mycology 68(2): 183-214   (published: 20th December, 2016)
  abstract   An extensive survey of soil mycobiota on citrus and grapevine plantations in Sahel-Saleem City, Assiut Governorate, Egypt was carried out using the dilution-plate method and 2 isolation media at 25 °C. Sixty-four genera and 195 species of filamentous fungi and 10 genera and 13 species of yeasts were recovered. A higher diversity (number of genera and species) and gross total counts were recovered from citrus than from grapevine soil. The peak of filamentous fungi recovered from both soils was found to be in February. Aspergillus (45 species) was the most dominant genus; A. ochraceus predominated in citrus plantations, while A. niger and A. aculeatus in grapevine. The Penicillium count came second after Aspergillus in citrus (23 species) and after Aspergillus and Fusarium in grapevine (11 species).Penicillium citrinum, P. ochrochloron and P. olsonii were more common in citrus plantations, but they were replaced by P. oxalicum in grapevine soil. Fusarium (19 species) was represented in 88.9–100% of both soils on both media; F. solani predominated in both soils, while F. incarnatum came next in citrus, and F. babinda and F. oxysporum in grapevine. Humicola (3 species) with the dominant H. fuscoatra was recorded in 61.1–83.3% of soil of both plantations, while Talaromyces (with T. purpureogenus followed by T. pinophilus being the most common) was recorded in 83.3–100% on DRBC and 38.9–50% on DYM from the soil of plantations of both crops. Volutella (5 species) was common in citrus but missing from grapevine soil. The present study reveals that hyaline fungi predominated over dark-coloured ones. Yeasts comprised only minor proportions in both soils (maximum 0.5%). They showed their peak in the soil of citrus plantations in April and in grapevine in February. All species were recovered in one or two samples only. Diutina catenulata, Debaryomyces hansenii, Galactomyces (3 species), Hanseniaspora occidentalis, Kluyveromyces marxianus, Meyerozyma caribbica, and Schwanniomyces pseudopolymorphus were encountered in citrus only, while Cryptococcus laurentii, Pichia kudriavzevii, Meyerozyma guilliermondii and Rhodotorula sp. in grapevine only. Physiological and growth characteristics were obtained for most of the recovered yeasts.

  abstract   As a result of a survey of poroid basidiomycetes in Gilan Province, Antrodiella fragrans, Ceriporia aurantiocarnescens, Oligoporus tephroleucus, Polyporus udus, and Tyromyces kmetii are newly reported from Iran, and the following seven species are reported as new to this province: Coriolopsis gallica, Fomitiporia punctata, Hapalopilus nidulans, Inonotus cuticularis, Oligoporus hibernicus, Phylloporia ribis, and Polyporus tuberaster. An updated checklist of polypores for Gilan Province is provided. Altogether, 66 polypores are known from Gilan up to now.

JUKIĆ N. (2016): First record of the Mediterranean species Ciboria brunneorufa in the Balkan Peninsula.   [Helotiales, Sclerotiniaceae, Bosnia and Herzegovina, coastal habitat, anthropogenic influence]  Czech Mycology 68(2): 127-137   (published: 29th July, 2016)
  abstract   To date, there are no published studies or official papers on mycobiota in coastal Bosnia and Herzegovina. In light of this fact, the author conducted a brief mycological study in the Mediterranean part of the country in February 2016. This paper offers a morphological description of the rare Mediterranean species Ciboria brunneorufa, an analysis of microscopic characters and a comparison with data of other authors. It also discusses the global distribution pattern and abundance of C. brunneorufa. An increased level of negative anthropogenic influence is expected on the Klek Peninsula in the future. In order to conserve this habitat unique in Bosnia and Herzegovina and to protect C. brunneorufa and other fungal species, it is necessary to make an environmental risk assessment and to carry out further systematic mycological field studies.

GHATE S.D., SRIDHAR K.R. (2016): Aquatic hyphomycetes associated with leaves, leaf detritus and crown humus in palm canopies.   [Caryota urens, Cocos nucifera, hyphomycetes diversity, abiotic factors, dry and wet season, India]  Czech Mycology 68(2): 111-126   (published: 8th July, 2016)
  abstract   Aquatic hyphomycetes associated with attached dead leaves (autochthonous), accumulated leaf litter (allochthonous) and crown humus in canopies of wild palm (Caryota urens) and cultivated palm (Cocos nucifera) were assessed during wet and dry seasons by means of bubble chamber incubation.The canopy of C. urens trapped allochthonous leaf litter of seven tree species (Alstonia scholaris, Artocarpus hirsutus, Ficus benghalensis, F. religiosa, Garcinia indica, Holigarna arnottiana and Mangifera indica), while in the canopies of C. nucifera leaf litter of four tree species was found (Acacia mangium, Delonix regia, Eucalyptus tereticornis and Polyalthia longifolia). Although the total number of species of aquatic hyphomycetes was almost identical during the dry season (17-18 spp.), in the wet season it was higher in Caryota urens than in Cocos nucifera (31 vs. 23 spp.). Based on conidium production, Anguillospora crassa, Flagellospora curvula and Lunulospora curvula were among the top five species during the wet and dry seasons in both palms.Shannon diversity was higher in the wet season than in the dry season in all samples of C. urens, while it was higher only in leaf samples of C. nucifera. Sřrensen’s similarity of aquatic hyphomycete communities between the samples was higher in C. urens than in C. nucifera. Three-way ANOVA revealed significant differences in species richness and conidium production between the seasons, palms and substrate assessed.

  abstract   The paper reports on the first collections of Queletia mirabilis in the Czech Republic, supplemented with photographs of fresh fruitbodies. The authors present a macro- and microscopic description of this species based on a study of material collected at a locality in North Bohemia. Ecology and distribution of this very rare gasteroid fungus are summarised and potential confusion with similar species is discussed.

KOUKOL O., LOTZ-WINTER H. (2016): Secondary conidia observed in Bartheletia paradoxa.   [ginkgo leaves, LSU and SSU rDNA, Agaricomycotina, Bartheletiaceae]  Czech Mycology 68(1): 79-84   (published: 12th May, 2016)
  abstract   Bartheletia paradoxa is an enigmatic microscopic basidiomycete restricted to leaves of ginkgo (Ginkgo biloba) in litter. This species forms a basal lineage to Agaricomycotina and its life cycle and ultrastructure are unique among members of this subdivision. To date, it has been recorded mostly in the litter of ginkgos planted as ornamental trees in gardens and parks. In this paper we report new collections of this fungal species and also a new phenotypic phenomenon in its life cycle, i.e. the formation of secondary conidia. They are oval to ovoid, hyaline and are formed terminally on stalks growing out of the conidia. The function of these secondary conidia as actively discharged ballistoconidia is discussed. They are supposed to enhance either short- or long-range dispersal of B. paradoxa.

PARVEEN S., WANI A.H., BHAT M.Y., KOKA J.A. (2016): Biological control of postharvest fungal rots of rosaceous fruits using microbial antagonists and plant extracts - a review.   [biological control, postharvest diseases, microbial pesticides, rosaceous fruits]  Czech Mycology 68(1): 41-66   (published: 1st February, 2016)
  abstract   This article aims to give a comprehensive review on the use of microbial antagonists (fungi and bacteria), botanicals and compost extracts as biocontrol agents against different pathogenic fungi causing postharvest fungal rots in rosaceous fruits which shows that they can play an important role in the biomanagement of fungi causing rot diseases. Plant extracts reported in the literature against pathogenic fungi indicate that they can act as a good biological resource for producing safe biofungicides. However most of the work has been done under experimental conditions rather than field conditions. There is still a need for research to develop suitable formulations of biofungicides from these microbial biocontrol agents and plant extracts. The review reveals that extensive ecological research is also required in order to achieve optimum utilisation of biological resources to manage various postharvest diseases of fruits.

(2016): Fungi and lichens recorded during the Cryptogam Symposium on Natural Beech Forests, Slovakia 2011.   [old-growth beech forests, diversity, conservation, indicator, red-list, Europe]  Czech Mycology 68(1): 1-40   (published: 1st February, 2016)
  abstract   In September 2011, an international team of cryptogam experts visited seven national nature reserves in five mountain areas of Slovakia: Havešová and Stužica in the Poloniny Mts., Vihorlat in the Vihorlatské vrchy Mts., Oblík in the Slanské vrchy Mts., Dobročský prales and Klenovský Vepor in the Veporské vrchy Mts. and Badínsky prales in the Kremnické vrchy Mts. The reserves were selected to represent examples of the best protected old-growth beech forests in the country. The aim was to study the diversity of wood-inhabiting fungi on fallen beech logs and epiphytic lichens on standing beech trees. In total, 215 fungal species and 128 lichens were recorded on beech wood and bark, and 27 fungi and 26 lichens on additional substrates. The site of the highest conservation value is Stužica with 126 fungi and 79 lichens recorded on beech, of which 12 fungi and 19 lichens are indicators of high nature conservation value. Combined with historical records, a total of 19 non-lichenised fungal indicators are now reported from the site, making it the highest ranked natural beech forest in Europe. The second most important reserve for fungal diversity is Havešová with 121 species, including 14 indicator species recorded on beech wood. For lichens, the second most important reserve is Klenovský Vepor with 69 species including 18 lichen indicators recorded on beech. Nine fungus species are here reported as new to Slovakia: Asterostroma medium, Entoloma hispidulum, E. pseudoparasiticum, Gloeohypochnicium analogum, Hohenbuehelia valesiaca, Hymenochaete ulmicola, Hypocrea parmastoi, Melanomma spiniferum and Scutellinia colensoi. Lichen species Alyxoria ochrocheila is reported as new to Slovakia and Lecanographa amylacea, which was considered extinct in the Slovak Red list, was also recorded. This is the first list of wood-inhabiting fungi and epiphytic lichens of old-growth beech forests in Slovakia, and hence an important contribution to the exploration of biodiversity in Slovakia.

HOLEC J., KŘÍŽ M., POUZAR Z., ŠANDOVÁ M. (2015): Boubínský prales virgin forest, a Central European refugium of boreal-montane and old-growth forest fungi.   [Mt. Boubín, Bohemian Forest, Czech Republic, Basidiomycota, Ascomycota, diversity, ecology, distribution]  Czech Mycology 67(2): 157-226   (published: 10th September, 2015)
  abstract   Boubínský prales virgin forest is the best-preserved montane Picea-Fagus-Abies forest in the Czech Republic. Its core area (46.67 ha), grown with original montane forest never cut nor managed by foresters, has been protected since 1858. It represents the centre of the present-day nature reserve (685.87 ha). A detailed inventory of its fungal diversity was carried out in 2013–2014. Ten segments differing in habitat and naturalness were studied (235 ha). The total number of species was 659, with the centre of diversity in the core area (503 species) followed by the neighbouring segments grown by natural forests minimally influenced by man. When literature and herbarium data are added, the total diversity reaches a total of 792 taxa. The locality represents a unique refugium for some borealmontane fungi (e.g. Amylocystis lapponica, Laurilia sulcata, Pholiota subochracea), a high number of rare species preferring old-growth forests (Antrodia crassa, A. sitchensis, Baeospora myriadophylla, Chrysomphalina chrysophylla, Fomitopsis rosea, Ionomidotis irregularis, Junghuhnia collabens, Skeletocutis odora, S. stellae, Tatraea dumbirensis), wood-inhabiting and mycorrhizal fungi confined to Abies (Panellus violaceofulvus, Phellinus pouzarii, Pseudoplectania melaena, Lactarius albocarneus), and a high number of indicators of well-preserved Fagus forests (e.g.Climacodon septentrionalis, Flammulaster limulatus, Pholiota squarrosoides). Several very rare fungi are present, e.g. Chromosera cyanophylla, Cystoderma subvinaceum and Pseudorhizina sphaerospora. The value of the local mycobiota is further emphasised by the high number of protected and Red List species. Comparison with other Central European old-growth forests has confirmed that Boubínský prales is a mycological hotspot of European importance.

  abstract   This article contributes to the knowledge of Finnish aphyllophoroid funga (mainly polypores and corticioids) with nationally or regionally new species and records of rare species. The record of Tubulicrinopsis cystidiata is the second in the world and Tomentella fuscocinerea is new to Finland. New records are provided for the following species with no more than 10 records in Finland: Antrodia sitchensis, Chaetoporellus curvisporus, Colacogloea peniophorae, Deviodontia pilaecystidiata, Luellia recondita, Phlebia femsioeensis, Phlebia subcretacea, Piloderma lanatum, Plicatura crispa, Polyporus badius, Pycnoporellus alboluteus, Rigidoporus obducens, Skeletocutis ochroalba, Trechispora caucasica, Trechispora laevis, Tretomyces microsporus, Tubulicrinopsis cystidiata, Tulasnella albida and Xylodon nespori. In addition, 49 aphyllophoroid fungi are reported as new to some subzones of the boreal vegetation zone in Finland. The ecology and distribution of some species are discussed and notes on the substrate of each record are given.

  abstract   In this paper the author publishes the first part of a list of his collections of downy mildews (Peronosporomycetes), rusts (Pucciniomycetes) and smuts (Ustilaginomycetes and Microbotryomycetes) collected from 1949 to 2013 on the entire territory of the Czech and Slovak Republics. In this part the samples which he has identified to date, in total 120 species on 218 host plants, are presented.Of these species the most interesting are Knautia × posoniensis as a new host of Peronospora violacea, Plasmoverna pygmaea s. l. on Aconitum plicatum in the Hrubý Jeseník mountains as the only known locality in the Czech Republic, Peronospora dianthicola as a species new to Moravia and 29 host plants new to Moravia.

ABDEL-HAFEZ S.I.I., ABO-ELYOUSR K.A.M., ABDEL-RAHIM I.R. (2015): Leaf surface and endophytic fungi associated with onion leaves and their antagonistic activity against Alternaria porri.   [phyllosphere, phylloplane, endophytes, purple blotch disease, antagonism]  Czech Mycology 67(1): 1-22   (published: 10th April, 2015)
  abstract   Sixty-eight fungal species belonging to 29 genera were isolated as leaf surface and endophytic fungi from healthy and purple blotch diseased onion leaves. The fungal populations associated with diseased onion leaves (1.360 × 103 CFU/g leaf in the phyllosphere, 2.614 CFU/leaf segment in the phylloplane and 1.324 CFU/leaf segment in the surface-sterilised diseased leaves) were higher than those in healthy samples (0.804 × 103 CFU in the phyllosphere, 1.184 CFU in the phylloplane, and 0.35 CFU as endophytes). Endophytic fungi of healthy leaves were represented by 12 genera and 15 species, while fungi of surface-sterilised diseased leaves included 17 species from 13 genera. The mycobiota associated with surface-sterilised diseased leaves were different from the endophytic fungi of healthy samples, whereas the disease may stimulate colonisation of opportunistic fungi causing secondary infections such as Botrytis cinerea, Penicillium aurantiogriseum, Alternaria alternata and Cladosporium spp. In contrast, healthy leaves were a source of antagonistic endophytic fungi such as Trichoderma harzianum and T. koningii. Testing the antagonistic effect of 91 fungal isolates against Alternaria porri showed that nine isolates of Trichoderma produced the highest suppressive potential (73.1%) depending on competition and mycoparasitism. Epicoccum nigrum and Penicillium oxalicum exhibited antibiosis against A. porri producing a 12 mm broad inhibition zone. In conclusion, the quantitative and qualitative compositions of fungi associated with onion leaves were distinctly influenced by A. porri infection. Mycobiota associated with asymptomatic onion leaves such as Epicoccum nigrum, Penicillium oxalicum and Trichoderma harzianum are a natural source of eco-friendly bioagents. They showed an effective antagonistic potential against A. porri, and may thus be applied as an alternative to fungicides.

KOUKOL O., KOTLABA F., POUZAR Z. (2014): Taxonomic evaluation of the polypore Daedaleopsis tricolor based on morphology and molecular data.   [morphological species concept, ITS rDNA, RPB2, TEF, Polyporales, Daedaleopsis]  Czech Mycology 66(2): 107-119   (published: 23rd December, 2014)
  abstract   Daedaleopsis tricolor and D. confragosa were formerly treated either as separate species or as conspecific. D. tricolor may be recognised by the presence of a lamellate hymenophore and mostly dark pileus surface with small network of grains, but its separate status is not supported by its micromorphology. Occurrence of intermediate forms contributes to uncertainty in species delimitation. Although this problem has been known for many years, no study has yet been aimed at a thorough study of both morphological and molecular data. In the present study, we analysed sequences of ITS rDNA, RPB2 and TEF of several typical specimens of D. tricolor and D. confragosa sampled in the Czech Republic in recent years, two specimens of the supposedly closely related D. septentrionalis, and available sequences from GenBank. Our data show that no studied DNA region supports separation of D. tricolor and D. confragosa as distinct species and that D. septentrionalis is supported as a distinct species according to the ITS rDNA and RPB2 genes. We therefore incline to treat D. tricolor as a variety of D. confragosa. Thorough revision of all species hitherto described in Daedaleopsis including Asian species of uncertain identity is recommended.

  abstract   The author has distinguished new infraspecific taxa in the Russulales and Agaricales orders. Two new forms are proposed: Lactarius vietus f. decolorans and Psathyrella multipedata f. annulata.Their descriptions are completed with photographs, showing the differentiating characters clearly.

BALAJI P., HARIHARAN G.N. (2013): Checklist of microlichens in Bolampatti II Forest Range (Siruvani Hills), Western Ghats, Tamil Nadu, India.   [microlichen diversity, substratum, forest types, photobiont, conservation, Western Ghats]  Czech Mycology 65(2): 219-232   (published: 20th December, 2013)
  abstract   A checklist of 137 microlichen species is provided based on the identification of specimens collected from three different vegetation types within the Bolampatti II Forest range (Siruvani Hills), Western Ghats. The dominant family is Porinaceae with 23 species. The dominant genus is Porina with 21 species. The diversity (87) and number of specific species (31) are highest at the Moist Mixed Deciduous Forest (MMDF) type, while there are about 30 lichen species common to all three different forest types studied. A total of 58 lichen species are new to this area. Study on habitat preferences of the lichens showed that most lichens grow on bark (75 %), followed by rock and leaf substrata. Concerning photobiont distribution, most Trebouxia containing lichens were found in the Dry Mixed Deciduous Forest (DMDF), while Trentepohlia is most frequent in MMDF. The presented number and types of lichens, and their ecological preferences will be a basis for conducting their future conservation and biomonitoring studies in various habitats of India.

ZOTTI M., PAUTASSO M. (2013): Macrofungi in Mediterranean Quercus ilex woodlands: relations to vegetation structure, ecological gradients and higher-taxon approach.   [conservation biology, ectomycorrhiza (ECM), fungal diversity, multivariate analysis]  Czech Mycology 65(2): 193-218   (published: 20th December, 2013)
  abstract   Few studies have investigated the relationships between mycodiversity and plant communities in Quercus ilex (holm oak) woodlands. These are unique ecosystems in the Mediterranean basin of high mycological importance. The macrofungi of Q. ilex forests in Liguria, North-Western Italy, were studied: 246 species were observed in 15 permanent plots over four years. Some species were identified as typical of holm oak woodlands, e.g. Hygrophorus russula, Leccinellum lepidum, and Lactarius atlanticus.Correspondence analysis (CA) showed that the main ecological gradients shaping the fungal and plant communities are driven by soil pH and climatic factors. The CA confirms that the minimum sampling area for macrofungi is larger than for plant communities and that aggregation of multiple plots is suitable for data analysis. The data suggest that the higher-taxon approach can be successfully applied also to Q. ilex macrofungi, not only for total species and genus richness, but also within abundance classes. Further investigations are required to better characterise the mycodiversity of Mediterranean holm oak woodlands in relation to human impacts over various scales to plan effective conservation strategies.

CABOŇ M., ADAMČÍK S., VALACHOVIČ M. (2013): Diversity of the family Russulaceae in the Scots pine forests of Záhorská nížina (SW Slovakia).   [Scots pine, ectomycorrhiza, fungal diversity, Russulaceae, Pinus sylvestris]  Czech Mycology 65(2): 179-191   (published: 20th December, 2013)
  abstract   The species diversity of the family Russulaceae was studied at four representative sites located in forests dominated by Pinus sylvestris on sandy soils in the Záhorská nížina lowland in the years 2010–2012. The diversity varies from 7 to 10 species per site. There is a high variation in species composition and frequency rates between the studied sites. At all four sites, members of two Russulaceae genera were represented: Lactarius with two recorded species in total, while Russula with 19 species.The species diversity of Russulaceae in the area of Záhorská nížina is estimated based on data from the representative sites, revision of herbarium material, and published data. Nineteen species were identified in the studied herbarium material, and together with the data from the representative sites this amounts to a total of 27 Lactarius and Russula species associated with Pinus and reported from the area. Published reports on the occurrence of three more species of these two genera, reported to be associated with pine trees in the area, have not been confirmed.

ISMAIL M.A., ABDEL-HAFEZ S.I.I., HUSSEIN N.A., ABDEL-HAMEED N.A. (2013): Contribution to physiological and biochemical diagnostics of Fusarium taxa commonly isolated in Egypt.   [Fusarium, taxonomy, physiological features, acetylmethylcarbinol, diagnostic]  Czech Mycology 65(1): 133-150   (published: 10th June, 2013)
  abstract   Fusarium isolates belonging to 24 species and 8 sections were subjected to 11 growth, physiological and biochemical tests (166 isolates). All species were able to grow on 25% Glycerol nitrate agar (G25N), Mannitol medium, Czapek iprodione dichloran agar (CZID) and Dichloran chloramphenicol peptone agar (DCPA). Growth rate, colony colour and reverse on G25N and CZID were promising diagnostic criteria for separating species within sections. The growth rate and reverse on Mannitol agar was diagnostic not only for separation of F. oxysporum from F. solani, but also for separation of many other Fusarium species treated. The ability to grow on Tannin-sucrose agar could distinguish some species of sections Liseola and Sporotrichiella. Acid production on Creatine-sucrose agar distinguished some species of section Liseola and F. trichothecioides of section Discolor. Acetylmethylcarbinol production revealed for the first time that all isolates of F. subglutinans can produce this substance, while most remaining isolates lacked this ability. Tests for peroxidase, urease and pyrocatechol oxidase proved to be very useful. The phosphatase enzyme seems to be common in Fusarium species and therefore it is only diagnostic for F. camptoceras (negative results). Some physiological features could be used as criteria to distinguish some sections or species within the same section.

  abstract   Fungal endophytes may influence plant communities by altering the host’s fitness either positively or negatively. Little is known, however, about their host/organ specificity, life style and role in plantfungus symbiosis under varying environmental conditions. We compared the leaf and root endophyte assemblages of two orchids (Bulbophyllum neilgherrense and Pholidota pallida) from natural forests and greenhouse conditions. Xylariaceae species were consistently associated with leaf and root tissues, while Guignardia and Pestalotiopsis were found predominantly in the leaf tissues of both orchids. Correspondence analysis of the endophyte assemblages showed that the endophytes exhibited distinct organ but little host specificity. More endophytes were shared by the two different orchids growing in the same location when compared to endophyte assemblages of a single orchid from different locations. Considering the influence of endophytes in shaping the host’s community, diverse habitats must be screened vigorously to address questions regarding the role of endophytes in hostendophyte interactions.

  abstract   In this study, we employed multilocus phylogenetic analysis for species identification of six Colletotrichum isolates belonging to the C. boninense species complex from India. Maximum parsimony analysis of the ITS/ 5.8S RNA, partial act, cal, chs1, gapdh, his3 and tub2 gene regions identified morphologically similar species, C. cymbidiicola, C. karstii and C. phyllanthi from diverse plant samples of Indian origin. Morphological description and photographic illustrations of C. phyllanthi from freshly collected material are provided, as the ex-type culture of C. phyllanthi deposited in CBS is in non- sporulating state. This is the first report of C. cymbidiicola and C. karstii from India. We are also reporting two new hosts: Bauhinia variegata (Orchid tree) and Bougainvillea glabra (Paper flower) for C. phyllanthi, and one new host: Olea dioica (Rose sandalwood) for C. karstii.

GANNIBAL P.B., KAZARTSEV I.A. (2013): Development of a PCR assay for amplification of mating-type loci of Alternaria spp. and related fungi.   [population genetics, recombination, Ulocladium]  Czech Mycology 65(1): 69-78   (published: 10th June, 2013)
  abstract   A large number of ascomycete anamorphs including Alternaria spp. are considered asexual, but carry structurally conserved genes in a mating-type locus (MAT1) with two alternate idiomorphs, MAT1-1 and MAT1-2. Since the locus has lost its main function in many species, different directions of natural selection acting on the idiomorphs can be observed. Thus identification of mating types can be used in population biology studies. Also analysis of MAT1 locus sequences is needed for evolution and phylogeny reconstruction. Eighteen primers from previous works and this study were assessed for their ability to amplify MAT1 in 25 Alternaria and 7 Ulocladium, Embellisia and Alternariaster species. The most suitable primer pairs for 6 sections of Alternaria and several Ulocladium species were revealed.

VAŠUTOVÁ M., DVOŘÁK D., BERAN M. (2013): Rare macromycetes from raised bogs in the Hrubý Jeseník Mts. (Czech Republic).   [macrofungi, peatland, raised bog, distribution]  Czech Mycology 65(1): 45-67   (published: 10th June, 2013)
  abstract   During a mycobiota study of raised bogs in the Hrubý Jeseník Mts., the rare fungi Omphaliaster borealis, Galerina sphagnicola, Clavaria argillacea var. sphagnicola, Ramariopsis subarctica and Ascocoryne turficola were found. Descriptions and figures of microscopic characters, photos and a summary of the knowledge on the ecology and distribution of these species in Europe, and a brief comparison with similar species are given. The boreo-alpine species Omphaliaster borealis is reported from the Czech Republic for the first time. It can be confused with Arrhenia onisca in the field. Another species new to the Czech Republic, the strictly sphagnicolous Galerina sphagnicola, can be overlooked and confused with several other sphagnicolous Galerina species. The newly reported variety of Clavaria argillacea, var. sphagnicola, is distinguished from the nominate variety by shape and size of its spores, as well as its habit and ecology. Ramariopsis subarctica was known in the Czech Republic so far only from the Giant Mts. (Krkonoše). Within Europe, the two Czech localities, along with a find in the High Tatra Mts. (Slovakia), are the only ones known outside Fennoscandia. Ascocoryne turficola is reported from Moravia for the first time.

  abstract   For the first time, the rare species Tricholoma borgsjoeënse and T. luridum are reported from the Czech Republic and Slovakia, respectively. Tricholoma borgsjoeënse, a species of the T. terreum group, is unique for its thick, distant and grey lamellae with a lilaceous tinge, dark grey pileus with a tomentose-squamulose surface, yellowing stipe base, and unusually large basidiospores and basidia. It was found in a man-made forest composed of Picea abies with admixed Pinus sylvestris. Tricholoma luridum, recognisable by its olive yellow-green tinges on the pileus, distinctly grey lamellae, uniformly ellipsoid, unusually large spores, and 4-spored basidia, was found in a Picea abies–Corylus avellana forest on calcareous soil. It is compared with T. guldeniae, its North European sibling. Notes on taxonomy, ecology and distribution of both species are added.

  abstract   During a field excursions in the Jizerské hory Mts. in 2010 and 2011, we found an interesting taxon of the genus Geoglossum. It was later identified as Geoglossum uliginosum Hakelier and is characterised by almost black fruitbodies, a viscid stipe becoming shiny after drying, and specific paraphyses. Its characteristic habitats are peat bogs or wet meadows with Molinia caerulea, Carex spec. div., Deschampsia cespitosa and/or Nardus stricta, always overgrown with Sphagnum sp.

HOLEC J. (2012): Tricholomopsis osiliensis (Basidiomycota, Agaricales), recently described from Estonia, found in Slovakia.   [fungi, taxonomy, Central Europe, natural forests]  Czech Mycology 64(1): 93-100   (published: 2nd July, 2012)
  abstract   Tricholomopsis osiliensis is a rare, recently described species, known from two Estonian islands in the Baltic Sea. In 2009 it was also found in Dobročský prales virgin forest in Slovakia. Macro– and microcharacters of this collection are presented in detail. The Slovak collection has brighter colours, a more distinctly fibrillose pileus surface, larger and more elongated spores, larger basidia, and more abundant pleurocystidia than the holotype collection. However, a DNA study showed that the Estonian and Slovak collections form a well-supported, not very variable clade. In the light of this finding some differences in macro– and microcharacters are better understood. The darker colours and more pronounced fibrils on the pileus and stipe surface can be attributed to the earlier stage of drying up and ageing of the Slovak fruitbodies. The species has a broader range of spore sizes than was thought before. Its preferable habitats are natural mixed forests, where the fruitbodies appear on fallen trunks of conifers (Picea, Abies).

  abstract   103 polypores described by P. Ch. Hennings have been examined based on the available types. Nineteen species are accepted, 63 species are reduced to synonymy, the types of 19 species could not be found, while two names are illegitimate. Two new combinations are proposed: Tyromyces aquosus (Henn.) Ryvarden and Diplomitoporus daedaleiformis (Henn.) Ryvarden. These two species are provided with descriptions, while published recent descriptions are referred to for the other 17 accepted species.

  abstract   The new polypore Rigidoporus pouzarii Vampola et Vlasák is described, occurring in alluvial forests, forming annual resupinate fruitbodies on lying dead stems of hardwoods, mostly Alnus species. In Europe, the species has been probably misidentified as R. crocatus, a closely related species differing by perennial, multi-layered fruitbodies and occurrence in old-growth mountain forests, preferentially on logs of Abies alba. Diagnostic features of both species are discussed and DNA sequences are also added. The name is dedicated to Zdeněk Pouzar, distinguished Czech mycologist, expert in alluvial forest fungi and our excellent teacher, on the occasion of his 80th birthday.

  abstract   The ecological knowledge on Crepidotus kubickae is not only insufficient in Slovakia but also in the rest of Europe. In the years 2008–2011, a case study was therefore carried out in central Slovakia to find out more data on its habitats and substrate preferences. During the research, 30 collections were gathered at seven localities of the Veporské vrchy Mts., Stolické vrchy Mts. and Muránska planina Plateau.The substrates of the collections were precisely described and collecting sites characterised and documented by phytocoenological relevés. In the selected area, C. kubickae occurred in several types of spruce or mixed forests (with dominance of Picea abies); namely in six associations of forest communities: Vaccinio myrtilli-Piceetum, Athyrio alpestris-Piceetum, Calamagrostio variae-Abietetum, cf.Cortuso-Fagetum, cf. Poo chaixii-Fagetum, and Dentario enneaphylli-Fagetum. The altitude of most collecting sites was above 1100 m a. s. l. The species preferred dead corticated fallen and standing stems of Picea abies of approx. 15–100 cm in diameter, aged about 70–180 years. In this paper, also the ecological knowledge on C. kubickae in Europe is summarised.

KOUKOL O. (2011): Early spring mycobiota of pine litter needles.   [fungal diversity, fungal communities, microfungi, Pinus sylvestris]  Czech Mycology 63(2): 153-161   (published: 10th August, 2011)
  abstract   Rise in air temperature accompanied by snow-melting in early spring may affect fungi colonising litter needles. This study dealt with the diversity of communities of culturable microfungi colonising Scots pine litter at localities still covered by snow and after snowmelt. Surface-sterilised needles were cultivated on malt agar under two temperature regimes (8/9 and 15/16 °C) and outgrowing fungi were isolated into pure cultures and identified based on morphology and analysis of ITS and partial 28S rDNA regions. Thirty-one fungal species were isolated in total. Dominant colonisers with a colonisation frequency of over 10 % included Verticicladium trifidum, Ceuthospora pinastri, Sympodiella acicola and an unidentified member of Helotiales. Two basidiomycetes, Marasmius androsaceus and Mycena galopus, were also isolated relatively frequently from needles with snow cover, but under different temperature regimes. This preference for different temperatures reflects different niches that these species occupy in coniferous litter. Species richness was significantly higher on needles cultivated at lower temperatures. Widespread use of room temperature for cultivation of samples even from cold seasons may underestimate fungal diversity.

  abstract   Based on recent, very rich collections of Cytidiella albomellea (Bondartsev) Parmasto (= C. melzeri Pouzar) from South Bohemia (Czech Republic) the author lists all presently known localities and collections of this species in Bohemia and Slovakia. C. albomellea is only known from the Northern hemisphere, namely Europe, Asia and North America. Hosts are conifers (predominantly pines) as well as frondose trees and shrubs (mostly oaks). A taxonomic note on the genus Cytidiella is included.

  abstract   The holotype of Naucoria bohemica Velen. has been revised. This collection corresponds to the most frequent interpretation of the taxon in modern literature. Since the condition of the material is not sufficient to determine microscopic and molecular characters, the authors designate a well-documented collection from the same area (central Bohemia) and corresponding in all aspects with the holotype as an epitype. Description and illustrations are provided for both collections.

  abstract   Two new species of the genus Dendrothele – D. salicicola and D. bisporigera – are described. Both species occur on bark of especially old, living arborescent willows (Salix alba and S. fragilis) in Bohemia (Czech Republic). Dendrothele salicicola is characterised by tetrasterigmatic basidia with indextrinoid walls, slightly bent sterigmata and the presence of hyphidia; it is presently known from 29 localities and 7 microlocalities. D. bisporigera is chiefly characterised by bisporic basidia with dextrinoid walls, the special spores shape and content as well as by the absence of hyphidia and cystidia; it has been found at two localities to date.

  abstract   Two very rare polypores are reported from the Czech Republic: Sarcoporia polyspora, for the first time, and Jahnoporus hirtus, for the second time. Several basidiocarps of both polypores were collected and their growth and development were monitored for a period of three months. The collections and localities are described and their world distribution as well as affinities with other fungi are commented.

  abstract   The mycobiota of soil from date palm (Phoenix dactylifera) plantations in Elche, SE Spain was examined using 23 soil samples and five isolation methods. One hundred and nineteen species assigned to 67 genera were isolated. The most frequent species were in decreasing order: Aspergillus fumigatus, A. niger, Neosartorya spinosa, Thielaviopsis punctulata, Chaetomium bostrychodes, Gilmaniella macrospora, Aspergillus candidus, Fusarium oxysporum, Rhizopus microsporus, Sordaria fimicola, Aspergillus terreus, Chaetomium murorum, Fusarium solani, Mucor racemosus, Penicillium citrinum and Thielaviopsis paradoxa. The thermotolerant and thermophilic species of Malbranchea cinnamomea, Myriococcum thermophilum, Rhizomucor miehei, Scytalidium thermophilum, Talaromyces emersonii, Thermoascus aurantiacus and Thermomyces lanuginosus were detected in various frequencies of occurrence. Our findings are compared with those from a similar survey of soil from date palm plantations in Iraq. Our study indicates that there is no characteristic mycobiota for soil in date palm plantations except for the more frequent isolation of some species well known as pathogens on date palm.

  abstract   Five coastal locations on the southeast coast of India severely disturbed after the tsunami on December 26, 2004 were surveyed for the occurrence of filamentous fungi on woody debris by means of short-term (1 month) and long-term (12 months) damp incubation. Short-term incubation revealed 26 mitosporic fungi (8 genera) ranging from 14 to 17 taxa per location with a total frequency of occurrence between 0.4 and 5.6 %. Aspergillus taxa were dominant and six of them were common to all locations.Long-term incubation yielded 35 fungi (25 genera) (22 ascomycetes, 1 basidiomycete and 12 mitosporic fungi). The total fungal taxa per location ranged from 25 to 28 with a total frequency of occurrence of 0.8 to 46.8 %. Corollospora gracilis was the most dominant ascomycete (46.8 %), while Cirrenalia tropicalis and Dictyosporium pelagicum dominated among mitosporic fungi (18 %). The total frequency of occurrence of 11 ascomycetes and four mitosporic fungi was above 10 %. Twelve ascomycetes and two mitosporic fungi were common to all locations. The richness of fungi was higher after long-term than short-term incubation. The occurrence of 61 fungal taxa in this study suggests that the tsunami-dumped woody litter on the southeast coast of India might have at least partially originated from the ocean, thus representing a mosaic of fungi existing in seawater and sediments.

  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.

  abstract   A revision of Caloplaca aurantia and C. flavescens in the Czech Republic is provided. Both species are confirmed from the territory; their distribution is reviewed and their ecological demands commented upon. Morphological investigations have confirmed the structure of the cortex and shape and colour of the lobes as the best diagnostic characters of both species; the thickness of the cortex has been found to be another useful character. Nomenclatural confusions regarding both species are discussed and clarified.

  abstract   Hydropus atramentosus is a rare lignicolous fungus included in the Red Book and Red List of the Czech Republic and in red lists of 5 other European countries. To date, it has been recorded at 15 localities in the Czech Republic. Most of them are almost pure Fagus forests with rare presence of Picea and/or Abies at lower altitudes or mixed submontane or montane forests composed predominantly of Fagus, Abies and Picea. There is also one record from a man-made Picea forest. H. atramentosus was mostly found at slopes of mountains or hills but also in deep stream valleys in the hilly country. The fungus shows a clear preference for old-growth forests (mostly nature reserves). However, it is rarely found in man-influenced or even man-made stands. Consequently, H. atramentosus cannot be considered a relict species confined exclusively to true virgin forests almost untouched by man but can be used as a bioindicator of conservationally valuable stands (natural vegetation, presence of dead wood of Abies or Picea, stable meso– and microclimate). This conclusion was verified also in the Slovakia and Ukrainian Eastern Carpathians.

  abstract   Pseudorhizina sphaerospora (Ascomycota, Pezizales, Discinaceae) belongs to the rarest fungi of the Czech Republic (CR). At each of the three known localities its occurrence is quite different in character. There is a historical locality where the species was observed only once a long time ago (Plešný = Plechý Mts.), a locality with continuous occurrence for more than 80 years (Boubínský prales virgin forest) and a new locality, where the fungus was found in 2005 (Žofínský prales virgin forest). All records of P. sphaerospora in the CR originate exclusively from montane virgin forests representing rare remnants of natural vegetation almost untouched by man. However, in Nordic countries, Switzerland, Germany and Slovakia the species is known from man-made or man-influenced habitats. It seems that P. sphaerospora does not prefer natural forests but either cold and humid climatic conditions or dead wood with a stable high water content. Such conditions are met in Nordic countries, in high mountains, in virgin forests with a stable humid mesoclimate and in dead conifer woods supplied by water from streams, etc.

  abstract   In the period 2001-2004, several hundreds of undergroundshelters (mainlyab and onedgalleries, caves, and cellars)inW and SWBohemia(CzechRepublic) were explored for insectcadavers with visi­ blefungalgrowth. At27localities, 94infectedcadavers of sixinsecttaxa were collected.Themostfre­ quentinfectedinsects were 7Yiphosadubitata, Scoliopteryxlibatrix(Lepidoptera;Geometridae and Noctuidae, resp.) and unidentifedmosquitoes(Diptera, Culicidae). On the collectedcadavers, alto­ ge the r20 species of microfungi(includingsterilemycelia) were recorded, most of them belonging to entomopathogens. The most frequent was Paecilomyces farinosus (36 % of all samples) and Cordycepssp.(15%)whichhadaffinitytoC. tuberculata and C.riverae. Closeassociation with insects was shownbyCordycepssp.( with Triphosadubitata) and Conidiobolusdestruens( with unidentified mosquitoes). On the contrary, Paecilomycesfarinosus was recordedonfivedifferentinsect species . Also several other interesting species were found (e.g. Hirsutella guignardii, Engyodontium cf. parvisporum), probably not yet recorded from the Czech Republic. Microphotographs of some microfungi studied are included.

HOLEC J. (2005): Distribution and ecology of Camarops tubulina (Ascomycetes, Boliniaceae) in the Czech Republic and remarks on its European distribution.   [fungi, pyrenomycetes, Camarops tubulina, natural forests, virgin forests, bioindicator]  Czech Mycology 57(1-2): 97-115   (published: 31st August, 2005)
  abstract   Camarops tubulina is a remarkable pyrenomycete included in the Red Book and protected by law in the Czech Republic. Until 1995, 8 localities were known. Due to intensive searching in the period 1996 - spring 2005, the species is currently known from 66 localities (94finds). Its stromata mostly occur on old, fallen, decaying trunks of Picea and Abies, rarely of Fagus, especially in virgin forests or minimally influenced natural forests, but rarely also on old, decaying trunks lying in man-made forests. Most frequent habitats are submontane herb-rich beech forests with a dmixture of Abies and Picea, mixed mountainous forests composed of Fagus, Picea and Abies, natural spruce forests of the supramontane belt and bog spruce forests surrounding mountain peat bogs. The species also occurs in lowlands, but at sites with climatic inversion such as stream valleys, small canyons and gorges. An analysis of its habitats showed that the most important conditions necessary for its occurrence are the existence of more or less natural forest stands with presence of fallen, decaying trunks of Picea, Abies orFagus (or, rarely, presence of such trunks in man-made forests) and a stable, humid and cool microclimate, best ensured by a closed forest stand. From the point of view of nature conservation, Camaropstubulina is an important bioindicator of natural forest ecosystems. The Czech Republic represents the richest area of its occurrence in Europe, where the species is currently known from north­ern and central part. Distribution maps for the Czech Republic and Europe are provided.

ŠUTARA J. (2005): Central European genera of the Boletaceae and Suillaceae, with notes on their anatomical characters.   [Boletaceae, Suillaceae, generic taxonomy, anatomical characters]  Czech Mycology 57(1-2): 1-50   (published: 31st August, 2005)
  abstract   A taxonomic survey of Central European genera of the familiesBoletaceae and Suillaceae with tubular hymenophores, including the lamellate Phylloporus, is presented. Questions concerning the delimitation of the bolete genera ar ediscussed. Descriptions and keys to the families and genera are based predominantly on anatomical characters of the carpophores. Attention is also paid to peripheral layers of stipe tissue, whose anatomical structur ehas not been sufficiently studied. The study of these layers, above all of the caulohymenium and the lateral stipestratum, can provide information important for a better understanding of relationships between taxonomic groups in these families. The presence (or absence) of the caulohymenium with spore-bearing caulobasidia on the stipe surface is here considered as a significant generic character of boletes. A new combination, Pseudoboletus astraeicola (Imazeki) Šutara, is proposed.

VAŠUTOVÁ M. (2004): Macromycetes of permanent plots in cultural forests in the Moravskoslezské Beskydy Mts. and Vsetínské vrchy hills (Czech Republic).   [Czech Republic, macromycetes, cultural beech and spruce forests, mycocoenology, permanent plots, ecology]  Czech Mycology 56(3-4): 259-289   (published: 22nd December, 2004)
  abstract   The mycoflora of cultural (artificial and managed subnatural) forests (i.e. beech, spruce and mixed forests) was studied in 18 permanent plots in the Moravskoslezské Beskydy Mts. and the adjacent part of the Vsetínské vrchy hills (Czech Republic) during they ears 1998-2000. Al together, 314 species of macromycetes were recorded. The highest number of species was recorded in plots in a young spruce forest on a former meadow (72 species ) and a waterlogged spruce forest (67 species ). Mycorrhizal fungi were the dominant group in older spruce forests (44.2 %), waterlogged spruce forests (43.3 %) and alder forest (45.6 %). A high percentage of terrestrial saprophytes was found in the young forest on a former meadow (43 %). Generally, common species prevailed.The main factor which influenced the species composition of all trophic groups was the composition of the tree layer. These results are compared with results from similar plots in the Czech Republic and neighbouring countries.

HASHEM M. (2004): Biological control of two phytopathogenic fungal species isolated from the rhizoplane of soybean (Glycine max).   [biological control, soybean, Macrophominaphaseolina, Rhizoctonia solani]  Czech Mycology 56(3-4): 223-238   (published: 22nd December, 2004)
  abstract   Two hundred isolates representing 31 fungal species (20 genera) were recovered from soybean roots. Samples were collected from 12 localities at 3 different growth stages of the crop. The most dominant species were Aspergillus flavus, Fusarium oxysporum, Fusarium solani (Nectria haematococca), Macrophomina phaseolina and Rhizoctonia solani. Pathogenicity tests have proved the ability of Macrophomina phaseolina and Rhizoctonia solani to infect soybean roots and produce the symptoms of damping-off and root-rot diseases.The efficacy of three antagonists (Trichodermaharzianum, Epicoccum nigrum and Paecilomyceslilacinus) as well as two organic compounds (Strom and F-760) was evaluated as to their control of pathogenic fungi . Biocontrol fungi significantly suppressed Macrophominaphaseolina and Rhizoctonia solani in vitro and in vivo. Epicoccum nigrum and Paecilomyces lilacinus suppressed the growth of the pathogens by producing an inhibition zone while Trichoderma harzianum suppressed them by overgrowing. Strom and F-760 showed lower reduction effect of diseases in comparison with the antagonists.

  abstract   In this second contribution, other eight species of ascomycetes and anamorphic fungi on Juncus trifidus collected in the Czech Republic are described (Ascochyta junci, Lachnum diminutum, Phaeosphaeria vagans, Phialocephalasp., Pseudoseptoria sp., Pycnothyrium junci, Stagonosporajunciseda, Unguicularia sp.). Additional localities of Arthrinium cuspidatum and Niptera eriophori described in the first contribution are given. A fungus previously published as Septoria sp. was identified as Septoria chanousiana. Additional material of some fungi (Ascochyta junci, Septoria chanousiana, S. minuta, Unguicularia millepunctata) from other substrata and countries was studied with the aim to compare it with material from Juncus trifidus from the Czech Republic. Numbers of fungi on Juncus trifidus at studied localities are discussed.

  abstract   Mycoflora of three commercial vermiculture systems based on cattle manure derived sub­ strates and Eisenia andrei earthworms was studied using several isolation methods. A total of 172 taxa of saprotrophic micromycetes were isolated (19 taxa of Zygomycetes, 9 taxa of Ascomycetes and 144 taxa of mitosporic fungi). Aspergillus fumigatus was the most frequent microfungal species in the intestine of Eisenia andrei. In vermicuture substrates, Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus fumigatus were among species isolated very frequently by the soil dilution method, while Rhizopus stolonifer was estimated as frequent species using the soil washing isolation technique.

  abstract   The Czech isolate of Cerebella sp. was confirmed as C. and ropogonis, as its RAPD patterns were identical to those of Australian and African isolate of this species. Also, rDNA (ITS1-5.8S-ITS2) sequences of African C. and ropogonis and the Czech isolate (AJ306620 and AJ400905) were identical except for a single transition A-G at position 47 of ITS1. Comparison of these quence with databases yielded 24 closely related sequences with 96.5-98.9 % identity to Cerebella. The highest similarity was found between Cerebella and Epicoccum nigrum/ Phoma epicoccina isolates, two other related groups were : Phoma herbarum, P. medicaginis, Phomopsis sp., and P. glomerata/Ampelomyces sp.

  abstract   Psathyrella lutulenta and P. omatispora are described as new species, found on the Iberian Peninsula. P. lutulenta belongs to sect. Spadiceogriseae, and is characterised by its limophilous habitat, pinkish-grey pileus on drying and sublageniform cystidia. Some holotypes of close North American taxa, as well as that of the European P. almerensis have been studied for comparison. P. omatispora belongs to sect. Cystopsathyra, was found in a greenhouse, and is characterised by the absence of hymenial cystidia and blackish colours of the basidiomata.

  abstract   Colacogloea allantospora is proposed as a new species. Canadian collections of C. bispora (Hauerslev) Oberw. et Bauer, C. peniophorae (Bourd. et Galzin) Oberw. et B and oni and two unnamed Colacogloea spp. are discussed. All are intrahymenial parasites of Hyphoderma, Tubulicrinis spp., of unidentified Corticiaceae s. 1. In addition to budding, repetition, and germ tubes, Colacogloea, germination by a thin-walled vesicle was comm only observed. Weak Congo Red-KOH stained colacosomes intensely in a recent collection of C. peniophorae; those in two related but unnamed older collections stained weakly. A Spiculogloea (c.f. S. minuta Roberts), also grew in the type collection of C. allantospora.

SEIFERT K.A., GAMS W., LOUIS-SEIZE G. (2002): Arthroxylaria elegans, a new coprophilous anamorphic fungus allied with the Xylariaceae, with the notes on the genus Bisporostilbella.   [anamorph taxonomy, coprophilous fungi, hyphomycetes, biodiversity]  Czech Mycology 53(4): 297-307   (published: 3rd October, 2002)
  abstract   The new genus and species Arthroxylaria elegans is described for a synnematous hyphomycete isolated from pack rat dung. The fungus is characterized by the production of tall, lightly pigmented, indeterminate synnemata covered with a layer of unbranched or sparingly branched chains of 0-1-septate meristem arthroconidia. A synanamorph with sympodially-proliferating conidiogenous cells, producing minute aseptate conidia, is also produced. Phylogenetic analyses of partial small subunit ribosomal DNA sequences suggest that the fungus is related to the Xylariaceae, Xylariales, and analysis of internal transcribed spacer sequences places the fungus in Xylaria. The new species is compared with other anamorphs of the Xylariaceae, and a number of similar synnematous and mononematous hyphomycetes, including the poorly understood Bisporostilbella fusca, which is illustrated based on holotype material.

  abstract   Complete sequences of 18S rDNA of seven strains of Tetracladium were determined. The following species were included: T. apiense, T. furcatum, T. maxilliforme, T. setigerum (one strain each) and T. marchalianum (3 strains). Sequence homology among the 7 strains was >98%. The closest published match (NCBI database) to the Telracladium sequences is one by Bulgaria inquinans (homology 95-96%). Phylogenetic analysis placed the Tetracladium complex in the vicinity of the Ascomycete orders Onygenales, Erysiphales and Leotiales.

  abstract   The mycoflora of roots of three species of oak (Quercus robur, Q. petraea, Q. rubra) from two localities near Moravské Budějovice (southwest Moravia, Czech Republic) with and without tracheomycotic symptoms was studied. Fifty-seven species of fungi were identified from the samples. The most frequently isolated were Fusarium solani, Penicillium gl and icola, P. glabrum, P. simplicissimum and Acremonium curvulum. In the roots of trees with tracheomycotic symptoms two species of ophiostomatoid fungi were recorded. Abiotic condiontions (insufieciency of precipitation and higher average temperature) are considered to be primary reasons of oak decline.

  abstract   Hymenochaete carpatica Pilát is an inconspicuous species that was almost completely overlooked until 1988 (Baici and Léger 1988) since its description in 1930. The ecology and distribution of the species in Central and Eastern Europe is described. Hymenochaete carpatica grows only on bark chips of old living trunks of Acerpseudoplatanus and has not been found on any other host. This species is known from Austria, the Czech Republic, France, Germany and Slovakia. Recently it was also found in Romania and the Ukraine for the first time. Two maps demonstrate the distribution of Hymenochaete carpatica in the Czech Republic and Europe to date.

  abstract   The authors report the finding in Southern Spain of an apparently rare fungus: Ciboria aestivalis (Pollock) Whetzel (Sclerotiniaceae) growing on mummified quinces (Cydonia oblonga Miller). Originally described from apples (Malus sp.) in the United States, the species has also been reported on other pomaceous and stone fruits in Australia. A recent report from France is based on a misidentification, whilst a British reference to “imported fruit” refers to mummified quinces brought from Australia. The inoculation of various fresh fruits produced mummies which developed apothecia, also on blackened pips from a mummified apple, whilst stromata formed in P. D. A. cultures. The apothecia are described in detail and illustrated, including the type. Its generic placement in the Sclerotiniaceae is discussed.

  abstract   Species referred to Plicaria Fuckel in Britain are considered and a key provided for their identification. One of them, Peziza radula Berk, et Broome, the lectotype of Plicariella (Sacc.) Rehm, proves congeneric with Peziza scabrosa Cooke, the type of Scabropezia Dissinget Pfister. Plicariella (Sacc.) Rehm therefore provides an earlier name for Scabropezia.

  abstract   Thirty-two species belonging to 19 genera of fungi were collected from 30 soil samples from the rhizosphere of pepper plants. The fungal colonies were characterised using classical morphological methods following identification keys. The most frequently isolated fungi were Chaetomiumglobosum, Fusarium oxysporum, Gliocladium roseum, Mucor racemosus, Myrothecium verrucaria, Penicillium aurantiogriseum, P. expansum and Trichoderma harzianum. The crude culture filtrate of Verticillium dahliae at 100% concentration caused sharp decrease in pepper seed germination. Chaetomium globosum, Gliocladium roseum, Myrothecium verrucaria, and Trichoderma harzianum produced a metabolite that retarded radial growth of Verticillium dahliae.

SALERNI E., LAGANÀ A., PERINI C., DE DOMINICIS V. (2000): Effects of various forestry operations on the fungal flora of fir woods - first results.   [Species diversity, macromycetes, forestry operations, fir woods]  Czech Mycology 52(3): 209-218   (published: 7th December, 2000)
  abstract   The first results of the effects of some parameters on the composition of the fungal flora in Abies alba Miller woods are reported. Medium thinning and removal litter seems to have contributed to a slight increase in species diversity. Moreover, the results suggest that this type of study should be continued and extended to other areas, to obtain a large amount of data.

Colloquium "Fungi as Model Organisms in Research and Biotechnology", Olomouc, September 14th, 1999.  Czech Mycology 52(2): 139-178   (published: 20th April, 2000)
  abstract   The colloquium was organized by the joint Commission for Experimental Mycology of the Czechoslovak Microbiological Society and the Czech Scientific Society for Mycology. The purpose of the colloquium was to provide a platform for a broad discussion on the use of fungi as model organisms in both basic and applied research. The programme of the colloquium was divided into four parts dealing with the following topics: phytopathology, biotechnology and ecology, physiology and biochemistry, and medical mycology. Each topic was opened with a plenary lecture (30 min.), followed by short communications (10 min.) and accompanied by poster presentations. Besides four plenary lectures, 15 short communications and 21 posters were presented. In total 38 researchers took part in the colloquium, at who discussed various questions of importance for experimental mycology until late in the evening. Abstracts of the contributions are given here.

  abstract   A list of type specimens of fungi preserved in the herbarium of the Moravian Museum in Brno, Czech Republic containing 351 items is published.

HOLEC J. (2000): A revision of new species of Pholiota and Flammula (Fungi, Agaricales) described by Josef Velenovský.   [fungi, Agaricales, Pholiota, Flammula, taxonomy, type study, synonyms, Cortinarius, Bolbitiaceae, Flammulaster, Galerina, Kuehneromyces, Pholiotina, Tricholomopsis]  Czech Mycology 52(1): 17-39   (published: 21st January, 2000)
  abstract   New species of Pholiota and Flammula described by Josef Velenovský, an important Czech mycologist, have been studied using the type specimens, original material and descriptions. All 16 taxa published by Velenovský have been revised: Pholiota decurrens, P.fallax, P. mammilata, P. maximovici, P. mucosa, P. nigrosetosa, P. pseudohypholoma, P. rigelliae, P. rostrata, P. salicina, P. sulphurea, Flammula granulosa, F. pholiotiformis, F. picea, F. squamulosa and F. vacini. The revision showed that most of them do not belong to the genus Pholiota in the modern sense and in fact represent species of the genera Cortinarius, Flammulaster, Galerina, Kuehneromyces, Pholiotina and Tricholomopsis. Of this group, six species are identical with earlier described taxa (Cortinarius bolaris, Flammulaster limulatus, Galerina triscopa, G. unicolor, Kuehneromyces mutabilis, Tricholomopsis rutilans) and the other are considered either insufficiently documented dubious species or should be studied by specialists of the aforementioned genera. All of Velenovský’s new species belonging to Pholiota in the present sense are identical with earlier described species: Pholiota albocrenulata, P. alnicola, P. flammans and P. gummosa. Consequently, no species of Pholiota s. str. described by Velenovský can be considered a “good” new species.

(2000): Mycocoenological studies in Mediterranean forest ecosystems: calcicolous deciduous oak woods of central-southern Tuscany (Italy).   [mycocoenology, calcicolous deciduous oak woods, Mediterranean]  Czech Mycology 52(1): 1-16   (published: 21st January, 2000)
  abstract   The results of mycocoenological studies carried out in calcicolous deciduous oak woods of central-southern Tuscany are reported. Comparison with there sults of studies in other for est ecosystems of the same area revealed exclusive differential species of deciduous oak woods and clarified the knowledge on mycocoenoses of central-southern Tuscany. The obtained in formation on individual species is also useful for understanding the relatively unexplored field of the ecology of macrofungi.

KOCOURKOVÁ J. (1999): Lichenicolous fungi from the Czech Republic. 1. Weddellomyces xanthoparmeliae Calatayud et Nav.-Ros.   [Dothideales, Dacampiaceae, Weddellomyces xanthoparmeliae Calatayud et Nav.-Ros., lichenicolous fungi, taxonomy, Xanthoparmelia]  Czech Mycology 51(2-3): 179-184   (published: 25th May, 1999)
  abstract   The parasitic lichenicolous fungus Weddellomyces xanthoparmeliae Calatayud et Nav.-Ros., recently described from Xanthoparmelia cf. protomatra (Calatayud et Navarro-Rosinés 1998) is now reported also from central Europe from the Czech Republic. It has been collected in several localities on Xanthoparmelia conspersa (Ehrh. exAch.) Hale and X. somloensis (Gyelnik) Hale. Weddellomyces xanthoparmeliae occurs in great quantity in all the Czech and Moravian localities and therefore it seems possible to find it without difficulties also in other warm areas in situations with rather xerothermic habitats where the hosts are commonly present.

KOCOURKOVÁ J., BERGER F. (1999): Polycoccum minutulum (Dothideales, Ascomycetes), a new lichenicolous fungus on Trapelia placodioides.   [Lichenicolous fungi, Ascomycetes, Dothideales, Polycoccum, Trapelia placodioides, flora of Austria, flora of the Czech Republic]  Czech Mycology 51(2-3): 171-177   (published: 25th May, 1999)
  abstract   A new lichenicolous fungus species, Polycoccum minutulum Kocourková et F. Berger is described from CentralEurope. Thecombination of features of this species, such as discoloration of infected parts of the host, the formation of galls, the size of the halonate spores provided with verruculose epispore and also the host Trapelia placodioides Coppins et P. James, distinguishes it from other species of the genus Polycoccum Sauter ex Körb.

GHERBAWY Y.A.M.H., ABDELZAHER H.M.A. (1999): Isolation of fungi from tomato rhizosphere and evaluation of the effect of some fungicides and biological agents on the production of cellulase enzymes by Nectria haematococca and Pythium ultimum var. ultimum.   [Biologicalcontrol, root-rot, fungicides Nectria haematococca, Pythium ultimum var. ultimum]  Czech Mycology 51(2-3): 157-170   (published: 25th May, 1999)
  abstract   Forty-five species and two species varieties belonging to twenty-six genera of fungi were isolated from 30 soil samples from the rhizosphere of tomato plants. The fungi most frequently isolated were Aspergillus flavus, A.fumigatus, A. niger, A. terreus, Gibberella fujikuroi, Nectria haematococca and Rhizopus stolonifer. Ridomil and Vitavax-captan (10, 50 and 100ppm) had no significant effects on the activity of Cl and Cₓ enzymes of Nectria haematococca. Cₓ enzyme activity was slightly increased at 10 and 50ppm, but slightly decreased at 100ppm. Vitavax-captan (10, 50 and 100ppm) significantly decreased Cl enzyme activities of N. haematococca. Cₓ enzyme activity was slightly increased at 10 and 50ppm, but at 100 ppm it showed a slightly inhibitory effect. Ridomil caused a slight increase in the activity of Cₓ and Cl enzymes by Pythium ultimum var. ultimum at low and moderate doses but the highest dose of Ridomil caused a slight reduction. Vitavax-captan slightly increased the activity of Cₓ and Cl enzymes in P. ultimum var. ultimum. Normal and sterilised filtrates of Myrothecium verrucaria, Penicillium oxalicum and Trichoderma harzianum induced a small decrease in Cl enzyme activity of Nectria haematococca. The sterilised filtrates of the three fungi tested caused greater inhibition compared to the normal filtrate. The production of Cₓ enzyme was slightly increased with normal and sterilised filtrates of Penicillium oxalicum and Trichoderma harzianum, but was significantly increased by both types of filtrates of Myrothecium verrucaria. The two types of filtrate of all fungi tested did not significantly affect the activity of Cl and Cₓ enzymes by lithium ultimum var. ultimum. Production of extracellular protein by Nectria haematococca was not significantly affected by any dose of the tested fungi cides. It was slightly increased by the two types of filtrate of the three tested fungi but significantly increased by the normal filtrate of Myrothecium verrucaria. The normal filtrate of all the fungi tested enhanced extracellular protein production to a greater extent than the sterilised filtrate. Extracellular proteins of Pythium ultimum var. ultimum were slightly increased by all doses of Vitavax-captan and low doses only of Ridomil, also two types of filtrate of all tested fungi caused a slightly increasing effect.

  abstract   A set of cultures of wood-degrading Basidiomycetes was screened for the ability to decolorize model synthetic dyes with the aim of selecting strains with the highest activities of ligninolytic enzymes. Four decolorization patterns were observed; some species possessed no decolorizing ability, some decolorized on all the media, some decolorized only when fully grown, and only apart of them followed a typical behaviour described in Phanerochaete chrysosporium Burds., i.e. decolorized only on nutrient limited media. The strains with the highest decolorizing capabilities will be further studied with respect to biodegradation of aromatic organopollutants.

  abstract   Of the 20 currently accepted species of the genus ThelocarponNyl. 8 species are reported from the Czech Republic: T. epibolum, T. impressellum, T. intermediellum, T. laureri, T. lichenicola, T. olivaceum, T. pallidum and T. superellum. 5 species, T. epibolum, T. intermediellum, T. olivaceum, T. pallidum and T. superellum, are new for the Czech Republic. T. laureri is found to be a common species. T. epibolum and T. lichenicola areherereported froma number of localities, T. superellum is reported from 3 localities, T. olivaceum from 2 localities and both T. impressellum and T. pallidumonlyfrom 1 locality. A keyto these species, distribution maps, localities as well as data on the ecology of all included species are provided. T. impressellum and T. lichenicola are reported for the first time from the Slovak Republic. Also, several additional records of T. epibolum and T. laureri are given from this country. Pycnidia of T. epibolum, T. intermediellum and T. lichenicola have been discovered and are described for the first time. Drawings of all these are added.

  abstract   The frequency of occurrence of fungi in 25 hair samples of nine kinds of sheep, collected from different localities in Saudi Arabia, was estimated using three isolation methods at 28°C. Fortyfive species and one variety representing 23 genera were isolated and the most common genera were Chrysosporium, Alternaria, Aspergillus and Penicillium. The most prevalent species of the above genera were C. indicum, C. tropicum, Alternaria alternata, Aspergillus flavus, A. fumigatus, Penicillium chrysogenum and P. oxalicum. Other fungi were also isolated with variable frequencies.

MORAVEC J. (1997): Discomycetes of Madagascar - I. Phillipsia ranomafanensis sp. nov. and ascospore sculpture of Cookeina colensoi proved by SEM (Discomycetes, Pezizales, Sarcoscyphaceae).   [Phillipsia ranomafanensis sp. nov, Phillipsia domingensis, Cookeina colensoi, ascospore ornamentation, Discomycetes, taxonomy]  Czech Mycology 50(1): 21-33   (published: 29th September, 1997)
  abstract   Results of the author’s investigation of discomycetes belonging to the family Sarcoscyphaceae recently collected on Madagascar are presented. Phillipsia ranomafanensis sp. nov. is described from Central Madagascar. The new species is distinguished by its large white apothecia with short, inconspicuous thin-walled hyphae on the external surface, and particularly by the small, symmetrical, ellipsoid to attenuate ellipsoid biguttulate ascospores which bear a fine longitudinal striation. The holotype (OSC) of Phillipsia costaricensis Denison - a species which also possesses symmetrical ascospores - has been examined. This Central-American species differs clearly by an ochraceous colour of the apothecia which are externally covered by long, rigid, ande xtremely thick-walled hypha-like hairs, and by uniguttulate, much larger, broadly ellipsoid ascospores bearing a finer and shallower striation and lower and flatter ridges. Type material of several other species of Phillipsia Berk, has also been examined and compared. Further collections of Phillipsia domingensis (Berk.) Berk, from Madagascar are reported and relations within the genus are discussed. Based on the author’s examination of the type material (K) of Peziza cordovensis Cooke and Phillipsia polyporoides Berk., both are tentatively (as the material is in a poor state) considered synonyms of P. domingensis. Ascospore ornamentation of species of the genera Phillipsia and Cookeina Kuntze has been studied and the author concludes that the ornamentation can truly be recognized by SEM only. The discovery of a very fine “amoeboid”-verrucose ascospore ornamentation in Cookeina colensoi (Berk.) Rifai, proved by SEM, is an important result, as the species has commonly been considered a smooth spored one. Illustrations on line drawings and SEM photomicrographs of ascospores of Phillipsia domingensis and Cookeina colensoi and those of ascospores taken from the type material of Phillipsia crenulata Berk. & Br. (K), P. ranomafanensis and P. costaricensis, accompany the paper.

Neottiellae, Discomycetes, taxonomy]  Czech Mycology 49(3-4): 149-161   (published: 23rd May, 1997)
  abstract   Octospora kilimanjarensis sp. nov. is described from a rain forest of the Kilimanjaro, Tanzania. The taxonomy is discussed and Octospora kilimanjarensis is placed in these c­ tion Neottiellae Caillet et Moyene of the bryophilous genus Octospora Hedwig. The new species is compared with other four related species of the section, Octospora albocincta (Berk, et Curt. ap. Berk.) Caillet et Moyne, Octospora rutilans (Fr.) Dennis et Itzerott, Octospora vivida (Nylander) Dennis et Itzerott and Octospora aplanodictyon (Kobayasi) J. Moravec based on Aleuria aplanodictyon Kobayasi. The latter is here reported for the first time from Central Europe (Czech Republic). Features of the new species are illustrated by line drawings and SEM photomicrographs. Ascospore ornamentation of the other species treated here has also been studied and line drawings of their ascospores accompany the paper.

  abstract   A new Phellinus species, viz. Phellinus cavicola Kotl. et Pouzar (Hymenochaetaceae), is described. It is remarkable for its resupinate, perennial, rusty brown, tough carpophores, coloured spores and absence of setae. The new species is closely related to Phellinus inermis (Ellis et Everh.) G.H.Cunn. but differs by the much thicker carpophores, slightly smaller pores and somewhat shorter spores. Ecologically, it is interesting by its occurrence in the cavities of stumps of broad-leaved trees.

  abstract   The occurrence of insect pathogenic fungi on cereal aphids (Sitobion avenae, Rhopalosiphum padi and Metopolophium dirhodum) and other aphid species was studied at an agricultural field site over two years. Aphids were sampled from crops (Tricitum sativum, Avena sativa and Secale cereale) and weeds (Chenopodium album, Polygonum spp., Lamium sp., Capsella bursa-pastoris and others) and the following fungal species were documented: Erynia neoaphidis, Entomophthora planchoniana, Conidiobolus obscurus, Conidiobolus thromboides, Neozygites fresenii and Verticillium lecanii. Epizootic development from mid July onwards occurred in a population of S. avenae. The dominant fungus species in 1993 was E. neoaphidis, and in 1994 E. planchoniana. It was possible to infect S. avenae with E. neoaphidis originating from other aphid species.

  abstract   The nomenclature of fungi is controlled by the InternationalCode of Botanical Nomenclature, revised at intervals of six years. The latest revision by the XV International Botanical Congress in Tokyo in 1993 signalled a major shift in botanical nomenclature towards increased pragmatism. The “top-ten” changes relevant to mycologists are summarized, and attention is drawn to a resolution of the Congress urging taxonomists to refrain from name changes for non-scientific reasons. Discussions have also been taking place between representatives of the Codes or Rules regulating the names of other organisms with a view to increasing harmonization between their practices and the eventual production of a single Code. Significant common ground has been established and the formation of an International Commission on Bionomenclature has been proposed. The pressure for change comes from both the generators and the users of names, and has targets which if realized will be of benefit to both groups.

  abstract   Rhodopeziza Hohmeyer and J. Moravec gen nov. is proposed for Rhodopeziza tuberculata (Gamundí) J. Moravec et Homeyer comb. nov., based on Aleuria tuberculata Gamundi (1975). Also two other new combinations are made: Sowerbyella phlyctispora (Lepr. et Mont. in Montagne) Hohmeyer et J. Moravec comb. nov. based on Peziza phlyctispora Lepr. et Mont. in Montagne, and Sowerbyella unicisa (Peck) J. Moravec comb. nov., based on Peziza unicisa Peck. Diagnosis of the new genus, descriptions, line drawings, SEM photomicrographs and notes on taxonomy accompany the paper.

MORAVEC J. (1994): Melastiza (Boud.) comb. et stat. nov. - a subgenus of the genus Aleuria Fuck. emend. nov. (Discomycetes, Pezizales).   [Aleuria, subgen. Melastiza, Pezizales, taxonomy]  Czech Mycology 47(4): 237-259   (published: 16th February, 1995)
  abstract   Relations between the genera Melastiza Boud. and Aleuria Fuck, are discussed. Examination of a number of collections of most species of both genera including the relevant type material has confirmed the opinion that the coloured outgrowths on there ceptacles of species of Melastiza are not reliable and sufficient for generic delimitation and, as a result, a new emendation of the genus Aleuria Fuck, is proposed. The genus is divided into two subgenera: subgen. Aleuria and subgen. Melastiza (Boud.) comb, et stat. nov.The discussed mutual relations and leading features, especially a variability of the colour and the wall thickness of the excipular hyphae and hyphoid hairs in Melastiza, similar shapes of the hyaline hyphae and hyphoid hairs in Aleuria, the same type of ascospores and excipular structure, the same carotenoid composition in paraphyses, and the same habitat, are considered an evidence for the generic identity. Reexaminations of the type material (NY, K) of Peziza cornubiensis Berkeley et Broome [= Melastiza cornubiensis (Berk, et, Br.) J. Moravec (1992b)], and the type (K) of Peziza chateri W. G. Smith [= Melastiza chateri (W. G. Smith) Boud.], have confirmed the identity of both fungi . Consequently, new combinations - Aleuria cornubiensis (Berk, et Br.) comb, nov., Aleuria carbonicola (J.

Hohnel in Rehm) comb. nov. and Aleuria scotica (Graddon) comb. nov. are proposed. A Nepal collection of Aleuria rubra Batra [=Melastiza rubra (Batra) Maas Geesteranus] has also been examined. Aleuria latispora spec. nov. based on a collection from Central Asia is described as a new species of this subgenus too. Notes on the taxonomy, and descriptions and illustrations of all the taxa including SEM photomicrographs of ascospores accompany the paper.

  abstract   The results of investigation of phytopathogenic micromycetes of the family Erysiphaceae occurring in phytocenoses of Cuba and Isla de la Juventud are summarized in this paper. They are dealing mainly with their host range, distribution and their morphological characteristics. Mentioned group of the fungi was detected on 78 plant species belonging to 62 genera and 16 families. They parasited mainly on species of the family Fabaceae (on 22 species from 13 genera) and Asteraceae (on 15 species from 14 genera), further on Euphorbiaceae (9 species from 6 genera), Malvaceae (6 species from 5 genera), Cucurbitaceae (4 species from 3 genera), Boraginaceae (3 species from 2 genera), as well as on species of the families Anacardiaceae, Balsaminaceae, Bixaceae, Brasicaceae, Caricaceae, Lythraceae. Rosaceae and Zygophyllaceae (only one species of the host plants). The fungi of the family Erysiphaceae occurred only in anamorphous stage. There is a growing tendency in the intensity of occurrence of mentioned group of micromycetes in Cuba. They are strongly parazitized by the mycoparasite Ampelomyces quisqualis Ces., too.

  abstract   Investigations of yeasts isolated from 126 water samples show the occurrence of 16 different species. Two small fish-ponds were sampled twice, in summer and autumn, respectively. The most prevalent species were Aureobasidium pullulans, Sporobolomyces roseus, Hansenula anomala, Hyphopichia burtonii, Leucosporidium scottii, Bullera alba and Candida sp., mainly Candida krusei. The comparison is noted between the yeast population of autumn and summer samples. The total yeast count was 2.5 times higher in autumn than in summer. Isolated yeast strains are characterized by some physiological features.

  abstract   The fungi of the order Agaricales s. l. and several families of ungilled fungi and gasteromycetes were studied in the beech woods of the southeastern part of the Sumava mountains and Sumava foothills (Czechoslovakia). Altogether, 230 species were recorded on 8 permanent plots (50 x 50 m) during the years 1988 - 1990. The terrestrial fungi were closely associated with a particular layer of the surface humus and substrate, and the lignicolous fungi were associated with wood in various stages of decay. The occurrence of mycorrhizal fungi was influenced above all by the mycorrhizal partner, altitude, and climate. The species composition, number of mycorrhizal and terrestrial species on the individual plots, and their share were determined by the humus type, microrelief, and the thickness of the detritus layer. The occurrence of lignicolous fungi was in close relation to the degree of naturalness of the wood, substrate diversity of the plot and the mesoclimate. The results are summarized in the mycosociological tables and compared by the use of cluster analysis and diagrams.

  abstract   On five localities in vallies Krížna, Koprová and Furkotská (High Tatra Mts.) we investigated the species structure of soil microscopic fungi and the similarity of mycocenosis. The arenic podzol and podzolic ranker soils were studied. The soils had low to very low acid reaction and very low content of organic matter. In the global number of isolated soil microscopic fungi species (48), the cosmopolitan genus Penicillium of the family Moniliaceae was dominantly represented. The species of the family Mucoraceae were suppressed as the result of the soil quality decreasing, which reflects the degradation of the quality of the whole environment in High Tatra Mts. The highest index of similarity – S = 0.6 – was proved between the localities in the neighboring vallies.

GRYNDLER M. (1992): The ecological role of mycorrhizal symbiosis and the origin of the land plants.  Česká Mykologie 46(1-2): 93-98   (published: 1st April, 1993)
  abstract   Phosphorus plays an essential role in the regulation and physiology of recent endomycorrhizas, indicating a possible evolutionary mechanism involved in the origin of symbiosis, based on improved phosphorus supply to the first land plants. An evolutionary scenario of the origin of the endomycorrhizal symbiosis (Glomales, Zygomycetes) is constructed. Phosphorus was available in coastal anoxic sediments of Devonian and Silurian water reservoirs. At that time, the plants radiating to land lacked an effective mechanism for phosphorus accumulation in the oxidative environment. The cooperation between plants and fungal microorganisms would have resolved this problem. Partners then developed regulatory mechanisms balancing the nutritional relationship between them and formed the integrating structures (arbuscules), responsible for mass and signal interchange.

ŠUTARA J. (1992): The genera Paxillus and Tapinella in Central Europe.  Česká Mykologie 46(1-2): 50-56   (published: 1st April, 1993)
  abstract   A brief survey of the genera Paxillus Fr. and Tapinella Gilb. is given with a key to the determination of Central European species of this group. Differences between the above mentioned genera are summarized into seven points. The species Agaricus atrotomentosus Batsch: Fr., often treated as a Paxillus, is here transferred to the genus Tapinella. The following new combinations are proposed: Tapinella atrotomentosa (Batsch: Fr.) comb. nov. and Tapinella panuoides (Fr.: Fr.) Gilb. f. ionipes (Quel.) comb. nov.

  abstract   In the course of the years 1988–1991 the author used to visit large-scale greenhouses at Paskov near Ostrava (NE Moravia, Czechoslovakia) and surveyed not only the abundant growth of particularly higher fungi there, but in 1989 he tried to summarize the weight of biomass of the most frequent species. The results of the observation of biomass, frequency, abundance and phenology are presented in the tables. Altogether 95 macrofungi taxons, 1 species of Hyphomycetes and 1 species of Myxomycetes were recorded and they are given in the systematic summary, potentially with comments.

VAMPOLA P. (1992): Oxyporus philadelphi, a new polypore of the Centraleuropean mycoflora.  Česká Mykologie 45(4): 150-154   (published: 21st May, 1992)
  abstract   When revising the genus Oxyporus from the herbarium of the National Museum in Prague (PRM), the author found two collections from Czechoslovak localities which he identified as Oxyporus philadelphi (Parm.) Ryv., new for Czechoslovak mycoflora. The correctness of the determination was confirmed by comparative study of herbarium specimens collected by E. Parmasto in Estonia and Turkmenia. A short description of this rare pore fungus is given and attention is drawn to its remarkable similarity with Schizopora radula and Ceriporia reticulata. Microscopically, Oxyporus philadelphi is very similar to O. corticola and its pileate form O. ravidus, but it differs by smaller spores.

VAMPOLA P. (1992): Oligoporus septentrionalis, a new polypore for Czechoslovak mycoflora.  Česká Mykologie 45(4): 144-149   (published: 21st May, 1992)
  abstract   A new species Oligoporus septentrionalis Vampola is described for a very rare, yellow coloured, resupinate polypore called Poria johnstonii Murrill = Tyromyces johnstonii (Murrill) Ryv. in northern Europe. According to results of revision of the type specimen (K!), Poria johnstonii described from California, USA, represents a cream coloured form of Cinereomyces lindbladii (Berk.) Jülich = Poria cinerascens (Bres. in Strasser) Sacc. et Syd. The first Czechoslovak collection of Oligoporus septentrionalis is published in this paper.

  abstract   The present paper reports the results of qualitative and quantitative investigation of yeast populations in freshwater of the lake in Jakubov, located in the middle of the Lowland of Záhorie. One hundred and twenty-eight samples offered the possibility to isolate seventy-three yeast strains belonging to twelve genera. Representatives of the genera Candida, Hansenula, Aureobasidium and Rhodotorula occurred most frequently. The occurrence of yeast species at the beginning of the season was twice as heterogeneous as after it. Isolated yeast strains are characterized by some physiological features.

URBAN Z. (1991): Broad and narrow species concept in graminicolours rust fungi.  Česká Mykologie 45(3): 99-102   (published: 31st October, 1991)
  abstract   The mankind is now facing the first-class target: the protection and conservation of the gene pool of all organisms. This concerns plants, animals and saprophytes (destruents) as economically useful as well as injurious and harmful ones like rust fungi. The detailed knowledge of the gene pool of both host plants and their biotrophic pathogens is one of the important prerequisites for effective integrated management of plant rusts. Based on the global, rough taxonomic treatment of graminicolous rusts we are not able to get a detailed picture about the gene pool of rust species concerned. Therefore, taking into account the global species concept, we have to discover the inner biological and ecological variability, which became evident as various infraspecific taxa or individual narrow species.

ŠUTARA J. (1991): Pseudoboletus, a new genus of Boletales.  Česká Mykologie 45(1-2): 1-9   (published: 15th May, 1991)
  abstract   The stipe surface of the boletes which have been placed usually in the genera Boletus and Xerocomus was studied. It was found that members of both these genera have the stipe surface fertile, composed of a caulohymenium with sporulating caulobasidia. An exception in this group is the species Boletus parasiticus whose stipe surface is sterile, covered with a trichodermium. This species is here separated into a new genus named Pseudoboletus. A new combination, Pseudoboletus parasiticus, is proposed. The species Pseudoboletus parasiticus is described in detail. Several notes on anatomy and taxonomy of this group of boletes are appended.

POUZAR Z. (1990): Additional notes on the taxonomy and nomenclature of Ischnoderma (Polyporaceae).  Česká Mykologie 44(2): 92-100   (published: 22nd June, 1990)
  abstract   The type species of Ischnoderma P. Karst., viz. I. resinosum (Fr.) P. Karst., is identical with Fomitopsis pinicola (Sw.: Fr.) P. Karst., and therefore the name Ischnoderma cannot be used for the genus in question. The generic name Lasiochlaena Pouz. gen. nov. is proposed for it. One of the species of this genus, known at present as Ischnoderma resinosum (Fr.) P. Karst. sensu auct., has no available legitimate name and therefore the name Lasiochlaena anisea Pouz. spec. nov. is proposed. Three names of polypores: Boletus fuscus Pers., B. fuliginosus Scop, and B. resinosus Schrad. are neotypified.

  abstract   The results of mycological trips undertaken by me in the years 1986–1989 to the east part of the highest Bohemian mountains are published in this paper. At present, Krkonoše Mts. (Giant Mts.), the only one National Park (KRNAP) in Bohemia, belong to the most damaged territories by air pollution (SO₂) and acid rainfalls. The excursions were realized every year in August and September. In this time the fructification of macromycetes is maximal. The fungi were collected in more than 70 localities often repeatedly, with special regard to Agaricales, Aphyllophorales and Ascomycetes, occasionally also to other groups, and most attention was paid to their ecology. The species of Agaricales examined and determined hitherto are alphabetically arranged and supplemented by numbers of records according to years, localities and altitude above sea level. The ecological and taxonomic notes will be published in the second and third part of this report.

  abstract   The paper deals with the ultrastructure of the conidia of powdery mildew (Erysiphe graminis f. sp. hordei Marchal) using the freeze-etching technique. Cross fractures through whole conidia exposed the cell wall and faces of the plasma membrane bearing invaginations. In addition, structural details of the conidium internal organization were recognized. The nuclear membrane showed numerous pores scattered over the nuclear surface. Numerous mitochondria, small vesicles and glycogen accumulated along the conidium periphery. The results obtained with Erysiphe graminis conidia prove the advantages of the freeze-etching method over the conventional fixation procedures for fungal conidia.

NOVOTNÁ J. (1989): Mikroskopische pilze auf Zysten Globodera rostochiensis Wollenw.  Česká Mykologie 43(2): 96-107   (published: 2nd May, 1989)
  abstract   The mycoflora of the potato cyst nematode Globodera rostochiensis Wollenweber 1925 was studied from four selected sites in Bohemia. A total of 36 fungal species were isolated. Opportunistic parasites included: Rhinocladiella anceps, Fusarium solani, Fusarium oxysporum, Cylindrocarpon sp., Humicola grisea, Gliocladium roseum and Phialophora fastigiata. Some fungi occurred widely across all sites, others were site-specific.

  abstract   The paper deals with 38 taxa of polypores newly described by A. Pilát, the type material of which is preserved in herbarium PRM. Several cases of misidentification or synonymy are discussed. For example, the holotype of Coriolus maublancii is actually Dichomitus squalens, and Coriolus subradula is identical with Antrodiella semisupina. The diagnostic features are revised based on recent microscopic studies.

  abstract   The concentration factors for non-radioactive Rb, Cs, and radiocaesium in the fruit bodies of mushrooms were determined. The difference between the concentration factors of non-radioactive and radioactive Cs from the last fallout was one order of magnitude. No significant differences were found between the concentration factors of stable Rb and Cs for mushrooms and vascular plants. The highest accumulation of radiocaesium was observed in Boletus spp., Laccaria spp., Paxillus involutus, Cortinarius armillatus, and Lactarius rufus. The contribution of older weapon-test fallout and the more recent 1986 Chernobyl fallout could be differentiated by isotopic ratio. The radiation dose from consumption of 10 kg fresh mushrooms did not exceed 20% of the dose from natural background radiation in Czechoslovakia.

KREJZOVÁ R. (1988): The formation and discharge of conidia in cultures of entomophthorus fungi.  Česká Mykologie 42(1): 31-40   (published: 10th February, 1988)
  abstract   The formation and discharge of conidia from twenty isolates of five species of entomophthorous fungi (Conidiobolus thromboides, Entomophthora destruens, Entomophthora pyriformis, Erynia neoaphidis and Zoophthora radicans) were studied with regard to their cultivation period in vitro. With the exception of E. pyriformis, isolates with both markedly high and very low numbers of discharged conidia occurred in all species. The capacity of conidium production and discharge was not very significantly dependent upon the in vitro cultivation period of the isolate. The course of conidium formation was characteristic for individual species and often markedly differed from the others.

  abstract   Two new strains of Tolypocladium cylindrosporum W. Gams and one strain of T. niveum (Rostrup) Bissett from Czechoslovakia were pathogenic for larvae of Culex pipiens autogenicus. The LT₅₀ was 8 or 9 days. Lethal dose was 3×10⁵ conidia/ml for T. cylindrosporum and 2×10⁶ conidia/ml for T. niveum. Conidia of both species remained virulent in sterile water at 4°C for 6 weeks. More than 2 hours of exposure to a 4×10⁵ conidia/ml suspension caused efficient infection and death.

  abstract   Records from Czechoslovakia of four species of Camarops subgen. Bolinia are reported: C. tubulina (from four new localities), C. microspora (four localities), C. lutea (one locality, new for the country), and Camarops plana Pouz. spec. nov. All species occur in natural or near-natural forests, often in protected areas, and are classified under the system of R. and O. Hilber.

RYPÁČEK V. (1986): Some interesting ways of wood infection by fungi.  Česká Mykologie 40(4): 193-202   (published: 7th November, 1986)
  abstract   Infections caused by wood-decay fungi proceed in various ways depending not only on the fungal species but also on the substrate's chemical and physical properties. Spores released from hymenia may reach hundreds of thousands per hour per square decimeter, attacking both living and dead wood. Successful colonization is influenced by microbial antagonists like Trichoderma viride or Bacillus asterosporus. Spores may lose viability within days if they fail to germinate. In trees, wounds allow entry, and anatomical structure affects spore migration.

  abstract   In the present paper we summarize the results of electron microscope investigation of the hyphae of three singlespore isolates of Cercospora beticola and a sterile mutant. In ultrathin sections of hyphal cells we have found two types of viruslike particles of spherical shape, 30—35 and 50—55 nm in diameter. They were dispersed in the cytoplasm and occasionally in the vacuoles as well. Viruslike particles of both types occurred together in the hyphal cells of the strain Mss2, whereas the hyphal cells of strain PR13 contained viruslike particles only one dimension, i.e. there were cells containing 30—35 nm and others 50—55 nm viruslike particles. In the infected cells we observed changes of mitochondria, the occurrence of lamellar structures, changes of cell walls leading to the disruption and liberation of viruslike particles from the cells. The sporulation of infected strains was considerably lower than in healthy one.

  abstract   Two new coprophilous species of Coprobia Boud., C. hyphopila spec. nov. and C. sordida spec. nov. are described from Czechoslovakia. Taxonomic problems of the genera Coprobia and Cheilymenia Boud. are discussed. Regarding the genus Cheilymenia, the author proposes to separate all species with superficial apothecial hairs related to Cheilymenia theleboloides from the genus and transfer them to Coprobia on the basis of a similar excipular structure and a specific cyanophilic striation of ascospore perispore consisting of extremely low longitudinal ribs. The author considers the striation of the peelable perispore (together with pustules, warts or folds) a very important feature for classification of species of Coprobia including all species of Cheilymenia with “theleboloides” type of excipulum and hairs. Moreover, the author described and pictured an outstanding ascospore ornamentation which he has found in several other species of Cheilymenia considered smooth-spored till now (e.g. C. ciliata). One new combination has been made.

STANĚK M. (1984): Microorganisms in the hyphosphere of fungi. I. Introduction.  Česká Mykologie 38(1): 1-10   (published: 10th February, 1984)
  abstract   The surface and immediate surroundings of fungal hyphae affected by their activity is termed the „hyphosphere“. Differences between microorganisms colonizing the hyphosphere and those colonizing a substrate is termed „hyphosphere effect“. The more extensive area of fungal effect on substrate, on the surface and surroundings of fruit-bodies, i.e. the environment affected by the activity of fungi is termed „mycosphere“. The nomenclature proposed is in agreement with the classification of the phytosphere of higher plants. The brief literary survey presents data on incidence of microorganisms in hyphosphere and on their importance, taking into account the results obtained in the Czechoslovak research institutions.

  abstract   Two new resupinate Hymenomycetes (Corticiaceae, Sistotrematoideae) are described: Elaphocephala iocularis Pouz., gen. et spec. nov., similar to the species of the genus Galzinia Bourd., but differing in strange basidiospores with two ramified branches on their top; Galzinia forcipata Pouz., spec. nov., occurring together with the previous species is close to Galzinia geminispora Olive, but differs in more slender spores. Both new species were collected in Central Bohemia (Czechoslovakia). A new subgenus Haplogalzinia is proposed for three species of the genus Galzinia.

  abstract   In three forest sites of the Nature reserve “Voděradské bučiny” soil microfungi were studied in the period from September 1978 to July 1979. A total of 66 species was identified, 9 of which belonged to Mucoraceae and 57 to Moniliales. The most common species were Penicillium albidum Sopp emend. Fass. (all sites) and Trichoderma viride Pers. ex S. F. Gray (beech forest, beech forest with Dicranum), Absidia cylindrospora Hagem (beech forest), P. spinulosum Thom (beech forest with Dicranum, spruce forest), P. chrysogenum Samson, Hadlok et Stolk (beech forest, spruce forest). The greatest number of species was found in the spruce forest. The highest biomass values of mycelium and of spores were ascertained in stony soil of the beech forest with Dicranum scoparium.

FRAGNER P., MICHÁLKOVÁ B. (1982): Is there a professional hazard of yeast incidence in stomatologic personnel?  Česká Mykologie 36(4): 243-247   (published: 1982)
  abstract   In the oral cavity of stomatological personnel, yeast colonization was found in 46.0% and Candida albicans in 33.0% of individuals — less than in the general population. C. albicans was least frequent in female doctors (24.2%), more frequent in nurses (30.6%), and highest in technicians (45.2%). Nurses with C. albicans had worked an average of 12 years in the field, while those without the yeast had worked 23 years. Interestingly, C. albicans appeared more often in younger individuals, contrary to trends in the general population. The study concludes no professional colonization risk exists.

  abstract   Coprinus laanii Kits van Waveren is described with its cap initially egg-shaped or ellipsoid, later bell-shaped, 5–10 mm high, 3–8 mm wide, and finally nearly flat. Initially white and covered with fine greyish powder, the cap becomes striated and torn at maturity. Gills are white to almost black, narrow, and not crowded. The stem is 10–30 mm long, 1–2 mm thick, white with greyish powder that later falls off. Spores are 10–14 × 7.5–8.5 µm with thick irregular perispore and ornamentation of transverse ridges. The veil is composed mainly of spherical or broadly ellipsoid cells. This fungus was recorded as a new finding in Czechoslovakia.

  abstract   The amyloid reaction with Melzer’s solution has been studied in the hyphae of basidiocarps in selected Amanita species. The species of the subgenus Amanita (with no amyloid reaction of the spore-walls) have given diverse reactions in hyphae of basidiocarps. The species from the section Amanita (Amanita friabilis, A. gemmata, A. muscaria, A. pantherina and A. regalis) have the amyloid substance in the plasma; it is particularly visible at the boundary of trama of pileus and stipe. In the section Vaginatae the reaction of hyphae was either positive (A. beckeri, A. caesarea, A. crocea, A. inaurata) or negative (A. fulva, A. mairei, A. umbrinolutea, A. vaginata). No amyloid substance was found in the plasma in species of subgenus Lepidella which show amyloid reaction in their spore-walls.

  abstract   The morphologically heterogeneous section Lilacinae Heim, designated by Moser (1967 and 1978) as group Obscuri, is here divided into two new subsections based on the presence or absence of caulocystidia at the apex of the stipe. The subsection Caulocystidiatae subsect. nov. includes species: Inocybe squarrosa, I. obscuroides, I. pusio, and I. cincinnatula. The subsection Caulo-acystidiatae subsect. nov. includes species: I. ochraceo-violascens (= ? I. personata), I. griseo-lilacina, I. cincinnata, and I. obscura.

POUZAR Z. (1982): The problem of the correct name of Vararia granulosa (Lachnocladiaceae).  Česká Mykologie 36(2): 72-76   (published: 1982)
  abstract   The generic names applied to the genus named here Krombholziella R. Maire are analysed from the nomenclatural viewpoint on the basis of the present nomenclatural Code. The generic names Krombholzia P. Karst, and Trachypus Bat. are later homonyms and therefore should be refused. It is demonstrated here that the generic name Leccinum S. F. Gray 1821 is illegitimate. On the basis of this illegitimate state and several other facts the generic name Leccinum Snell 1942 cannot be accepted and should be considered as a later homonym of Leccinum S. F. Gray 1821. Hence the author accepts the generic name Krombholziella R. Maire and consequently he proposes new combinations.

ČAČA Z. (1982): Present trends in the world phytopathological research.  Česká Mykologie 36(2): 65-71   (published: 15th May, 1982)

Fries (1838, 1874) considered the element representing our Vararia only a marginal part of his broad concept of Grandinia granulosa (Pers. ex Fr.) Fr. As there is no legitimate name for the fungus in question, Vararia borealis Pouz. spec. nov. is proposed for it here.

FRAGNER P., PREISLER M. (1982): Incidence of yeasts in the mouth cavity of patients with parodontopathias.  Česká Mykologie 36(1): 52-56   (published: 1982)
  abstract   In patients suffering from some parodontopathies and diseases of the mouth cavity mucosa (most frequently parodontitis and gingivitis), yeasts were found in the mouth (on the tongue, teeth or gingivae) in 43.8% of cases, Candida albicans in 29.2% individuals. These percentages are strikingly lower than in the healthy population. Abundant or massive yeast findings (including Candida albicans) appeared only in parodontitis. The gingivae can sometimes be a wholly independent, isolated source. All yeast findings are given both qualitatively and quantitatively.

FRAGNER P., HEJZLAR J. (1981): Yeasts flora of the tonsills.  Česká Mykologie 35(4): 227-233   (published: 1981)
  abstract   Yeasts (including Candida albicans) in the mouth cavity (on the tongue and/or on the tonsills) were found in 60.0% individuals, Candida albicans (alone or in combination with other yeasts) in 43.5% individuals. In most cases the yeast flora of the tonsills was identical with that of the tongue, only in 5.8% it was species different. Tonsills as a probable yeast source (judging from a larger number of germs or different species than that on the tongue) were found in 6.8% individuals. Possible connections between yeast incidence and clinical picture of the tonsills and tongue, general health condition, administration of antibiotics and several other circumstances were followed.

KREJZOVÁ R. (1981): Surface structure of the fungus Zoophthora radicans.  Česká Mykologie 35(2): 57-63   (published: 15th May, 1981)
  abstract   The most distinctive characteristics of the fungus Zoophthora radicans shown in SEM micrographs are the ridges and grooves on the typical cup-like papilla of conidia, the spoon-like form of the thread-like conidiophore with anemoconidium, and finely wrinkled surface of anemoconidia. No attaching device of anemoconidia was found. The fungus was obtained from Dr. I. Hall’s laboratory, Department of Biological Control, University of California, in 1966. It was primarily isolated by Hall and Dunn (1957) from Therioaphis maculata (Buckton) and described as Entomophthora exitialis Hall et Dunn. This name was considered nomen confusum by Remaudière and Hennebert. In a revision, the authors placed the fungus definitely to Zoophthora radicans (Brefeld) Batko. The culture of the strain Z. radicans, which we obtained, grew in our collection for years on Sabouraud glucose agar or on coagulated egg yolk medium only as hyphae. In our previous experiments we managed to induce mycosis in Galleria mellonella L. larvae by an injection of suspension from cut hyphae and to obtain not only hyphal bodies, but also reproductive stages in the form of conidia. In order to complete the morphological studies of the fungus we have examined some developmental stages under the scanning electron microscope.

POUZAR Z. (1981): Notes on the taxonomy and nomenclature of the polypore Inonotus polymorphus.  Česká Mykologie 35(1): 25-28   (published: 1981)
  abstract   The delimitation between Inonotus nodulosus (Fr.) P. Karst. and I. polymorphus sensu Bourd. et L. Maire is discussed and the latter species is described as a new one — I. hastifer Pouz. — the original Polyporus polymorphus Rostk. being identical with I. nodulosus. On Fagus sylvatica in Central Europe in mountains a species of Inonotus is widely distributed called Inonotus polymorphus (Rostk.) Pil. sensu Bourdot et L. Maire. This species has been well characterized e.g. by Jahn (1965), Domański (1963, 1965, 1972) and Pegler (1964). Nevertheless the name used for this species is quite untenable because the original description and illustration by Rostkovius (1838, tab. 56) represents a quite different fungus, viz. Inonotus nodulosus (Fr.) P. Karst. As I found no available name for this polypore I describe it here as new even if it has been well known for a half of a century and it is quite common locally. Nevertheless the nomenclatural Code (Stafleu et al. 1978) requires such a procedure.

  abstract   There are described specimens of the extremely rare polypore Phellinus chinensis (Pil.) Pil. from two new localities in Northern Asia in the USSR. This fungus was hitherto known from only one collection from China and its taxonomic position is now newly defined. P. chinensis is characterized by lacking setae, fairly large coloured spores, parallel hyphae of tube trama, large pores, a black line on section of the basidiocarp and the tuffy strigose surface of small pilei (when developed).

HILBER R., HILBER O. (1980): Notizen zur Gattung Camarops (Boliniaceae).  Česká Mykologie 34(3): 123-151   (published: 1980)
  abstract   In the presented paper the genus Camarops P. Karst., emended by Nannfeldt, is introduced. Since there are some contrasting characters within this genus, Camarops is divided into 3 subgenera: Camarops (type C. hypoxyloides P. Karst.), Camarops subgen. Bolinia (Nke.) [type C. tubulina (Alb. et Schw. ex Fr.) Shear], and Camarops subgen. Peridoxylon (Shear) [type C. petersii (Berk. et Curt.) Nannf.]. Based on herbarium and partly fresh material, four European species of this genus are described, discussed, and illustrated: Camarops polysperma, C. tubulina, C. microspora, and C. petersii. C. tubulina and C. microspora were also studied in culture.

FRAGNER P., ŠIMKOVÁ M. (1980): Yeasts in children.  Česká Mykologie 34(2): 82-91   (published: 1980)
  abstract   Altogether 400 children in the age of 0–8 years, hospitalized because of various diseases, were examined. Yeasts were demonstrated in 58.3% children in the tongue, buccal mucosa, tonsils or rectal swabs. Lists of the species found at different localizations are given. Candida albicans (alone or in combination with other yeasts) was found in altogether 47.5% patients; on the tongue in 41.8%, on the buccal mucosa in 38.3%, on the tonsils in 50.8% and in the rectum in 20.3%. With respect to the findings of C. albicans in rectal swabs there exists a rule that C. albicans is nearly always present in the mouth as well. Mouth findings need not be accompanied by findings in the rectum. Clinical picture of soor in the mouth cavity was observed in 1.5% children only. Possible connections between the incidence of yeasts and various clinical changes were followed. Especially important are the findings of yeasts in connection with the general health condition of the children: in the group with abundant and massive C. albicans findings most children are in poor health condition, on the other hand least of them are in good health state; in the group of children with negative mycological findings the situation is reversed. Likewise, a connection is observed between yeast presence and repeated or long-term hospitalization: children with positive mycological findings are more frequently repeatedly or long-term hospitalized than those with negative findings. In the group of children with negative or incidental findings, the highest number had not been ill so far. A possible correlation is also seen between the yeast occurrence and the administration of broad-spectrum antibiotics; however, one must not forget that such antibiotics are usually given to patients in poor health.

MICKA K., KLÁN J. (1980): Chemical spot tests of macromycetes with benzidine.  Česká Mykologie 34(2): 74-81   (published: 1980)
  abstract   Macrochemical colour reactions of benzidine were studied mainly with the species of genera Agaricus, Amanita, Lactarius, Russula, and Tricholoma. With the genus Lactarius, differences were found between the reactions of the milk and the context. Oxidation enzymes, which give a blue-green, blue, or black reaction, were detected in many species of the genera Agaricus, Lactarius, and Russula, whereas with Amanita and most species of Tricholoma they were absent. In the case of the genus Russula, only species with a burning taste give a yellow or ochre reaction. The reactions of benzidine are suitable as complementary characteristics for the determination of some mutually similar species.

  abstract   Hypsizygus tessulatus (Bull. ex Fr.) Sing. is redescribed from American material and compared with some European data on this species. Description of three European species of the Hohenbuehelia petaloides group are provided and slight differences between European and American collections of H. petaloides are pointed out. It is suggested that a species typified by a Mexican collection, H. recedens spec. nov., may be part of Ricken’s concept of Pleurotus geogenius. H. portegna is described from both American and European collections and closely related species are discussed. Pseudoclitocybe beschidica spec. nov. is compared with European and American representatives of this genus. Since the type species of Nothopanus must be transferred to Pleurotus, the European representative of this genus has to be known (again) as Pleurocybella porrigens (Pers. ex Fr.) Sing.

  abstract   During investigations of colonization of healthy emerged sugar beet roots by microorganisms, the fungus Pythium oligandrum Drechsler was found on the root surface of sugar beet seedlings which already had true leaves, in Semčice (Central Bohemia) in 1972. Infection tests proved a low degree of pathogenicity of this fungus towards sugar beet seedlings. In laboratory conditions, Pythium oligandrum showed strong parasitism against Pythium ultimum Trow and Pythium debaryanum (Hesse) De By., which are significant root rot pathogens of sugar beet. In dual cultures with these fungi, P. oligandrum usually dominated the substrate within 24 hours after inoculation and completely destroyed or strongly suppressed the other fungus growing with it on agar medium. Because Pythium oligandrum exhibits only very weak pathogenicity towards sugar beet but is a strong parasite of P. ultimum and P. debaryanum, which it shares the rhizosphere with, its potential use for biological control of sugar beet root rot is discussed, using biopreparations applied to sugar beet seed.

SVRČEK M. (1977): New or less known Discomycetes. IV.  Česká Mykologie 31(1): 8-14   (published: 1977)

Three new combinations are proposed.

PRÁŠIL K., ŠAŠEK V. (1977): Antibiotic activity of some Pyrenomycetes.  Česká Mykologie 31(1): 1-7   (published: 1st March, 1977)
  abstract   A set of cultures of stromatic lignicolous Pyrenomycetes was screened for antibiotic activity. From a total of 25 species (36 strains), the antibiotic activity was detected in 9 species. The most active species were Diaporthe impulsa, D. pustulata, Hypoxylon multiforme, Hypoxylon sp. and Valseutypella tristicha. However, the antibiotic activity lowered down in the course of re-inoculation, especially when the cultures were transferred into the submerged conditions. According to this finding, more appropriate test would be the direct screening of the submerged cultures.

URBAN Z. (1974): Concerning taxonomic concept and nomenclature of some cereal rust fungi.  Česká Mykologie 28(2): 80-83   (published: 1974)
  abstract   The author discusses Chochrjakov’s proposal of names for several cereal rust fungi, such as Puccinia persistens f. sp. tritici and P. coronifera, and contrasts them with his own taxonomic and nomenclatural concepts. He recommends using names like Puccinia perplexans var. triticina for wheat brown rust, P. coronata var. avenae for oat rust, and subdivisions of P. graminis for cereal and grass rusts. He argues for the use of names that best reflect the pathogen’s morphology and ecology.

  abstract   Report on the first record of the operculate discomycete Lamprospora lutziana Boud. in the Zadielská dolina in the South Slovak Karst. This is the first record in Czechoslovakia and perhaps the second in the world. The fungus was found growing in thousands of fruit bodies on moss-covered calcareous stones in the stream of the valley. A discussion of the genus Lamprospora and the erection of a new section: sect. Ovalisporae Kubička. Lamprospora lutziana appears to be muscicolous, calciphilous and hygrophilous.

POUZAR Z., SVRČEK M. (1972): On the typification of the genus Ascophanus Boud. (Pezizales).  Česká Mykologie 26(1): 25-28   (published: 1972)
  abstract   The authors typify the genus Ascophanus Boud. with the species Ascophanus granuliformis (P. Crouan et H. Crouan) Boud. The lectotypes hitherto selected of this genus, viz. Ascophanus subfuscus (P. Crouan et H. Crouan) Boud. and A. carneus (Pers. ex Pers.) Boud. appear to be inappropriate; A. subfuscus is an inoperculate species which feature is in contradiction with the original diagnosis of the genus Ascophanus Boud. Because of its spore-ornamentation, Ascophanus carneus (Pers. ex Pers.) Boud. was considered an exceptional element in this genus by Boudier himself. Thus Coprotus Korf et Kimbrough appears to be a synonym of Ascophanus Boud. The present authors disagree with the opinion that the species of the genus Ascophanus Boud. are congeneric with the genus Thelebolus Tode ex Fr. both for nomenclatural and taxonomic reasons.

SVRČEK M., MORAVEC J. (1972): Über die Helvella fastigiata Krombholz (Farbtafel Nr. 81).  Česká Mykologie 26(1): 1-8   (published: 27th January, 1972)
  abstract   This paper deals with the taxonomy of Helvella fastigiata Krombholz = Gyromitra fastigiata (Krombh.) Rehm. This species was several times recently found in Europe and erroneously identified as the North American Neogyromitra caroliniana (Bose ex Fr.) Imai. The European collections, published under this name, are identical with the true Helvella fastigiata Krombholz, which was macroscopically well described and illustrated by its author in 1834. The type species of Krombholz remained unknown or misunderstood by most mycologists. A number of new collections made in 1971 in Moravia (Czechoslovakia) contributed to the clarification of this species, which belongs to the group of discomycetes placed in the genera Neogyromitra and Discina. Because — in the opinion of the authors — no essential differences between both genera exist, Helvella fastigiata is transferred to the genus Discina. With Discina fastigiata are identical: Gyromitra pratensis Velen., G. inflata sensu Velen., and Discina brunnea (Underw.) Raitviir.

  abstract   Myriostoma coliforme was found at “Vinnianský hrad” hill near Vinné, eastern Slovakia, on August 14, 1969. This is the sixth published locality for this rare gasteromycete in Czechoslovakia and the easternmost and highest so far. The site differs from other known localities, which are mostly sandy plains, by being on an andesitic slope. A list of local plant species and previous findings is included.

PETERSEN R.H. (1971): A new genus segregated from Kavinia Pilát.  Česká Mykologie 25(3): 129-134   (published: 9th July, 1971)
  abstract   When Pilát (1938) described Kavinia, the genus was typified by its only species, K. sajanensis Pil. Later, Pilát (see Christiansen, 1953), and Eriksson (1954) agreed that K. sajanensis was identical to Clavaria bourdotii Bresadola (1908), which had been misinterpreted as clavarioid instead of hydnoid. Donk (1956) reported that C. bourdotii was a synonym of Hydnum alboviride Morgan (1887). Gilbertson (1970) finally proposed the combination Kavinia alboviridis (Morgan) Gilbertson, which is assumed to be correct. A second species of resupinate hydnoid fungi was transferred into Kavinia by Eriksson (1958) as K. himantia, based on Hydnum himantia Schweinitz, and variously placed in several resupinate-hydnoid genera. The two species are not congeneric, as suggested by Corner (1970). No long and involved species descriptions are needed, for these have been supplied by the literature. Certain discordant structures might well be pointed out, however, to supply evidence for the separation of the taxa. First, the spores of K. alboviridis are roughened, thick-walled, ovoid to ellipsoid, and with the ornamentation of cyanophilous low warts or crests. The spores of K. himantia are smooth, thin-walled, cylindrical and without cyanophilous reaction to speak of (although the wall itself is weakly so). In short, the spores of K. alboviridis differ from those of K. himantia precisely as the spores of most species of Ramaria differ from those of Lentaria. Second, the hyphae of K. himantia (especially the hyphae of the basal tomentum) bear ampulliform or onion-shaped swellings, especially at the clamped septa. The hyphae of K. alboviridis are without such swellings. Third, the hyphae of K. himantia often are covered with small, cyanophilous, densely distributed spines, while the hyphae of K. alboviridis are smooth.

  abstract   The fungi Entomophthora thaxteriana (Petch) Hall et Bell and Entomophthora destruens Weiser et Batko were cultivated in amino acid-rich liquid media. Yield of vegetative mass and resting spores was measured under varying pH and compared with E. virulenta. Morphological and physiological growth patterns of these Entomophthora species in submerged culture are described. Historical taxonomy and previous misidentifications of E. thaxteriana are discussed.

  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.

FRAGNER P., MÚČKA V. (1969): Experiments on the separation and identification of „Rubronigrin“.  Česká Mykologie 23(2): 127-128   (published: 1969)
  abstract   The substance which arises in cultivating mediums by means of the cultivating of Trichophyton rubrum var. nigricans (Fragner 1966) and which has an antibiotic effect on Cryptococcus (Fragner 1965) is not uniform. It is possible to release a basic gas by fast alkalising and warming of the older cultivating medium, which have pH value over 7 owing to the growth of T. rubrum var. nigricans. We determined in this gas dimethylamine by paper and gas chromatography and ammonia by the former of the two methods. The synthetic pure dimethylamine hydrochloride had an antibiotic effect. Our previous (Fragner and Múčka 1966) concentrates obtained by means of distillation were polluted by acrolein arising during dry distillation of glucose from cultivating medium. In younger cultivating mediums with pH ranging from 5.5 to 6.5 there arises — owing to the growth of T. rubrum (with a sharp maximum) — another very unstable substance with antibiotic effect, which we call at the time being “rubronigrin”.

  abstract   The authors deal with the taxonomy, morphology and distribution of the polypore Phellinus tremulae (Bond.) Bond. et Borisov. They demonstrate the presence of a granular core as a character not previously recognized in this species and describe its macro- and microstructure. In Czechoslovakia as throughout the rest of Europe, the frequency of this polypore decreases from East to the West.

PILÁT A. (1968): Diversity and phylogenetic position of the Thelephoraceae sensu amplissimo.  Česká Mykologie 22(4): 247-258   (published: 1968)
  abstract   The family of fungi Thelephoraceae in the system of Fries and other older authors is seemingly well-organized, and if it were not for the large number of species, it would be easy to navigate, as earlier mycologists believed. In the early 20th century, however, it became clear that this is a highly heterogeneous group, and that neither the content of the family nor the delimitations of the genera are sustainable, since they combine unrelated elements on the basis of superficial morphological similarities that are evolutionarily insignificant. The study of Thelephoraceae sensu amplissimo and its phylogeny-based classification was advanced by many mycologists including P.A. Karsten, V. Fayod, N. Patouillard, V. Litschauer, E.M. Wakefield, E.A. Burt, S. Lundell, H. Bourdot, G.H. Cunningham, M.A. Donk, P.D. Rogers, H.S. Jackson, R. Singer, J. Boidin, G.W. Martin, L.S. Olive, P.H. Talbot, P.L. Lentz, J. Eriksson, M. Svrček, D.A. Reid, E. Parmasto, A.E. Liberta, among others. There is no doubt that the group includes the origins of nearly all eubasidiomycetes and also various branches of Auriculariales and Tremellales. This complicates classification to such a degree that no two systematic works use the same system, and this state of taxonomic chaos is expected to persist.

  abstract   This paper deals with the lignolytic and holocellulose-degrading activity of supernatants from stationary cultures of wood-destroying fungi. Schizophyllum commune was the most active, causing 5.9% weight loss in beech wood and 40.5% in holocellulose. The correlation of degradation patterns suggests that different enzymatic systems may be used for wood and holocellulose decomposition.
