SVRČEK M. (1974): New or less known Discomycetes. I. Česká Mykologie 28(3): 129-137 (published: 15th August, 1974)
abstract
Notes on 16 species of Discomycetes are given based on revised herbarium specimens from several European institutes. One new species, Tricharina subglobispora, is described, and 13 species are newly transferred to other taxa. Two rare species from Czechoslovakia, Aleuria cestrica and Octospora phagospora, are reported, with their types deposited in the National Museum herbarium in Prague.
SOCHOROVÁ Z., ECKSTEIN J., SOCHOR M. (2024): Octospora pulchrispora (Pezizales) – a new bryophilous species on Cynodontium polycarpon [bryoparasitic Pezizales, bryophilous ascomycetes, Rhabdoweisiaceae, rhizoid galls, vital taxonomy.] Czech Mycology 76(1): 45-62 (published: 3rd May, 2024)
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.
NÉMETH C., ECKSTEIN J., SOCHOR M. (2022): Disentangling the taxonomy of Octospora meslinii (Pezizales), a bryophilous ascomycete on Grimmia pulvinata. [bryoparasitic fungi, EF1α, Grimmia pulvinata, LSU, SSU.] Czech Mycology 74(1): 1-24 (published: 1st January, 2022)
abstract
The bryophilous ascomycete Octospora meslinii is a rarely reported species growing exclusively in cushions of the saxicolous moss Grimmia pulvinata. The taxon has been misunderstood in the past and hitherto reliably only reported from France and Germany. Many recent collections from Hungary have made it possible to get a better understanding of O. meslinii, which is comprehensively described and illustrated in this paper. Because of the lack of original material, we designate an illustration in the protologue as the lectotype and one of the recent collections as the epitype of this fungus. Octospora meslinii is compared with other species of Octospora growing in the same type of habitat or having similar ascospores. The most closely related species to O. meslinii is O. pseudoampezzana. Both share apothecia with blackish pigmentation, a unique feature compared to bryophilous Pezizales as a whole, ellipsoid ascospores ornamented with isolated warts, moss hosts in the family Grimmiaceae, and the infection inducing galls on the rhizoids. A phylogenetic analysis using the EF1α, LSU and SSU rDNA loci confirms our morphological findings showing that O. meslinii forms a monophyletic clade with O. pseudoampezzana, whereas other species with which O. meslinii was confused in the past, e.g. O. similis, are related only distantly.
MORAVEC J. (1997): Fungi of the Kilimanjaro - II. Octospora kilimanjarensis sp. nov., a new species of the section Neottiellae (Discomycetes, Pezizales). [Octospora kilimanjarensis sp. nov., Octospora sect. 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.
SVRČEK M. (1981): List of Operculate Discomycetes (Pezizales) recorded from Czechoslovakia III. Česká Mykologie 35(3): 134-151 (published: 1981)
abstract
This third (and last) part of the list contains: (1) the enumeration of insufficiently known and excluded species or doubtful records, (2) the review of species arranged according to their ecotops, substrata or hosts, (3) some supplements to the first part of this list, (4) the explanation of abbreviations used in the list, (5) the English summary, and (6) references.
SVRČEK M. (1981): List of Operculate Discomycetes (Pezizales) recorded from Czechoslovakia II. (O-W). Česká Mykologie 35(2): 64-89 (published: 1981)
abstract
The second part of this list includes the rest genera O–W arranged alphabetically and is a direct continuation of the first part published in Česká mykologie 35: 1–24, 1981. Some new combinations are proposed and one new species is described.
