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.

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.

  abstract   Eight species of stereoid fungi were identified in collections from Cuba. Uncommon or rare species include Dendrophora albobadia, Laxitextum bicolor, Lopharia cinerascens, Porostereum lilacinum, Stereum fasciatum and S. lobatum. The species Hjortstamia crassa and H. papyrina are rather common.

KOTLABA F., KLÁN J. (1994): A handful of Aphyllophorales collected in Greece.   [Aphyllophorales, host plants, Greece]  Czech Mycology 47(3): 199-206   (published: 17th June, 1994)
  abstract   26 species of Aphyllophorales collected by the authors in Greece, some new for that country, are listed with rare or less abundant fungi represented by Inonotus rickii, Perenniporia tenuis, Porotheleum fimbriatum and Vuilleminia coryli. Some of common species were also found on unusual hosts, as e.g. Bjerkandera adusta and Trametes versicoloron Acacia retinodes, Laetiporus sulphureus on Eucalyptus camaldulensis and Radulomyces confluens on Anagyris foetida. The rather rare Perenniporia tenuis was found on Bougainvillea glabra, Phlomis fruticosa and on Vitis vinifera, whereas Vuillemmia corylion Carpinus orientalis. For major part of these fungi represent new records of hosts.

KOTLABA F. (1991): Ecology and geographical distribution of two stereoid fungi - Columnocystis abietina and Stereum gausapatum - in Czechoslovakia.  Česká Mykologie 45(1-2): 15-24   (published: 15th May, 1991)
  abstract   Columnocystis abietina occurs in Czechoslovakia almost solely on stumps and dead trunks of Picea abies and very rarely on Abies alba; it is known in this country from at least 193 localities, the majority of which is situated in the montane belt. Stereum gausapatum occurs in Czechoslovakia primarily on stumps, dead (exceptionally living) trunks and branches of oaks and only very rarely on some other broad-leaved trees; it is currently known in this country from 231 localities, the majority of which is situated in the hilly country belt.

KOTLABA F. (1988): Stereum rameale, its ecology and geographical distribution in Czechoslovakia.  Česká Mykologie 42(4): 205-214   (published: 16th December, 1988)
  abstract   The ecology and geographical distribution of Stereum rameale in Czechoslovakia is shown with 125 localities now known in this country. The majority of localities (111) are situated in Bohemia, particularly in the colline belt of the thermophyticum. It grows as a saprophyte on small dead branches of broad-leaved trees and shrubs (on at least 35 species), primarily on oaks and roses.

KOTLABA F. (1987): Stereum subtomentosum, its ecology and geographical distribution in Czechoslovakia.  Česká Mykologie 41(4): 207-218   (published: 12th November, 1987)
  abstract   Stereum subtomentosum, occurring only in the Northern Hemisphere in Europe, Asia and North America, grows on a number of exclusively broad-leaved trees, most often Fagus sylvatica and Alnus species. In Europe, it has a rather oceanic distribution. In Czechoslovakia it is known from 107 localities — 26 in Bohemia and Moravia and 81 in Slovakia. It occurs from plains up to high mountain elevations.

KOTLABA F. (1987): Cystostereum murraii (Corticiaceae), its ecology and geographical distribution in Czechoslovakia.  Česká Mykologie 41(3): 129-138   (published: 10th August, 1987)
  abstract   Cystostereum murraii grows in Czechoslovakia as a saprophyte predominantly on Abies alba (75.8% of all findings), rarely on Picea abies and only exceptionally on Fagus sylvatica, mostly on old fallen trunks. Even though its altitudinal occurrence is known to be from 280 to 1500 m a.s.l., the majority of localities (42.6%) are in the montane belt between 800–1100 m. In Czechoslovakia, C. murraii is known from a total of 68 localities — 24 in Bohemia, 15 in Moravia and 29 in Slovakia. Owing to extensive dying of fir, the main host-tree, the number of findings of this Cystostereum has rapidly been decreasing during the last two decades.

KOTLABA F. (1986): Stereum frustulatum, its ecology and geographical distribution in Czechoslovakia.  Česká Mykologie 40(3): 129-141   (published: 29th August, 1986)
  abstract   Stereum frustulatum occurs mostly as a saprophyte chiefly on stumps and dead fallen trunks of oaks and exceptionally also as a saproparasite on living trees. It is distributed solely in the Northern Hemisphere in Europe, Asia and North America from the tropics (Asian) to the warm areas of the temperate zone. It is known in Czechoslovakia from 123 localities from the lowlands to the lowest parts of the montane belt with the majority of localities in the colline belt (hilly country). It is interesting that in western part of Czechoslovakia this Stereum is known from only 36 localities (24 localities in Bohemia, 12 in Moravia), whereas all other localities (87) are in Slovakia, mainly in the southern half. The list of the Czechoslovak localities and map of distribution is provided.

KOTLABA F. (1985): A remarkable Stereum: S. subpileatum (Aphyllophorales), its ecology and distribution with special regard to Czechoslovakia.  Česká Mykologie 39(4): 193-204   (published: 8th November, 1985)
  abstract   The ecology and geographical distribution of Stereum subpileatum is treated, with special reference to Europe, and Czechoslovakia in particular. This remarkable Stereum is known in this country from 20 localities, all on dead wood of three species of oak, primarily Quercus cerris. It does not occur in Bohemia, being known from only one locality in Moravia and from 19 localities in Slovakia. In Europe, it is known from a limited number of countries and is also reported from Asia, Africa, and the Americas.

KOTLABA F. (1985): Ecology and distribution of Stereum insignitum with special regard to Czechoslovakia.  Česká Mykologie 39(1): 1-14   (published: 11th February, 1985)
  abstract   Stereum insignitum Quél. occurs rather abundantly in some countries of Western and Southern Europe, rarely in Central Europe and, very rarely, in the western part of Asia. In Czechoslovakia, this fungus grows chiefly on Fagus sylvatica in thermophilous beech forests, particularly in the colline belt. All the known localities (45) are situated in Slovakia, none in Moravia nor even in Bohemia; the two records in the literature from Bohemia must be deleted.

  abstract   A comprehensive overview of fungal species published from the Boubín primeval forest in the Šumava mountains is presented. The author compiled records from ca. 50 mycological excursions since 1906 and integrated them with modern taxonomy. This basic inventory serves as a foundation for future studies of fungal succession in this protected forest.

SVRČEK M., KUBIČKA J. (1971): Zweiter Beitrag zur Kenntnis der Mykoflora des Urwaldes „Žofínský prales“ im Gebirge Novohradské hory (Südböhmen).  Česká Mykologie 25(2): 103-111   (published: 1971)
  abstract   This article presents results of continued mycological exploration in the Žofínský virgin forest (Novohradské hory, southern Bohemia), conducted during 11 excursions between 1966–1969. 225 new fungal species were recorded, bringing the total known to 462. Newly added taxa include 58 Aphyllophorales, 112 Agaricales, 1 Gasteromycete, 35 Discomycetes, 9 Pyrenomycetes, 3 Hyphomycetes, and 7 Myxomycetes. The remaining unidentified material is to be processed in a future contribution.

BLATTNÝ C. (1966): Hoplothrips pedicularius (Haliday) auf Fruchtkörpern von Stereum purpureum.  Česká Mykologie 20(4): 216   (published: 1966)
  abstract   In September 1965 in Holany (Česká Lípa district), larvae and a few adult thrips of Hoplothrips pedicularius (Haliday) were found en masse on fruiting bodies of Stereum purpureum (Pers.) Fr., feeding and living especially on the underside. They were also occasionally found on Tricholoma rutilans (Schaeff. ex Fr.) Kummer and Pholiota mutabilis (Schaeff. ex Fr.) Kummer. This represents an ecologically interesting discovery since thrips of this genus were previously known to feed under bark, not on fruiting bodies.

POUZAR Z. (1964): Stereum subtomentosum sp. nov. and its taxonomic relations.  Česká Mykologie 18(3): 147-156   (published: 14th July, 1964)
  abstract   Stereum subtomentosum Pouz. sp. nov., a species of the northern temperate zone, has until now been misidentified as Stereum fasciatum (Schw.) Fr. It differs by the absence of pseudoacanthophyses in the hymenium. Compared to its closest relative Stereum hirsutum, it shows a different hymenium color, subtomentose pileus surface, and a chrome-yellow discoloration upon injury.

  abstract   Four species belonging to the genera Chrysonectria and Sphaerostilbella are reported from the Czech Republic and Poland. A key to distinguish the studied species is provided. The type specimen of S. berkeleyana was studied. According to the available indexes or checklists, the finds of S. berkeleyana and S. broomeana may be new to the Czech Republic, the latter also to Poland.

JANČOVIČOVÁ S., FULJER F. (2024): Slovak record extends the knowledge of the distribution of Hohenbuehelia josserandii.   [Agaricomycotina, morphology, ITS nrDNA sequence, ecology, Abies alba, Europe.]  Czech Mycology 76(1): 63-81   (published: 13th May, 2024)
  abstract   The rare species Hohenbuehelia josserandii was recorded in Slovakia for the first time. The locality in the Súľovské vrchy Hills is one of the easternmost in Europe. Basidiomata were produced on branches of freshly fallen silver fir (Abies alba). Field observations and morphological characteristics of the species are described in detail and compared with published data. Distribution data are visualised on a map. The ITS nrDNA sequence of the Slovak collection is in agreement with the sequence of the H. josserandii holotype.

  abstract   Murinicarpus subadustus described from China is the only species of the genus Murinicarpus (Polyporales, Basidiomycota). There is no other report of this genus from any other country except China. Here, we report M. subadustus as a novelty to the macrofungal biota of India. This unique species is identified based on morphological features and nrDNA ITS-based phylogenetic analysis. A thorough macro- and microscopic characterisation along with field photographs, line drawings of microscopic structures and comparisons with morphologically and phylogenetically related taxa are provided.

LAMBEVSKA-HRISTOVA A., BANCHEVA S., KARADELEV M. (2022): First record of Dendrothele nivosa (Basidiomycota) for the Balkans on a new host, Savin juniper.   [lignicolous species, rare species, host interaction, Juniperus sabina.]  Czech Mycology 74(1): 25-32   (published: 2nd February, 2022)
  abstract   Dendrothele nivosa is a rare Mediterranean lignicolous species, growing on representatives of the genus Juniperus, hitherto unknown from the Balkans. This wood-decaying fungus was collected on living branches of Savin juniper, a rare and protected plant species, included in the Bulgarian Biological Diversity Act. Dendrothele nivosa is considered to be a white rot saprobe with a restricted range following the distribution of the juniper host. This study is aimed at providing information on the first find of D. nivosa in the Balkans, i.e. in the southwestern part of Bulgaria, on a new substrate, as well as on the possible impact of the fungus on the host population.

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.

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.

ZÍBAROVÁ L., POUSKA V. (2020): New records of corticioid fungi in the Bohemian Forest (Czech Republic).   [Corticiaceae, Šumava, deadwood, distribution, macrofungi, rare species.]  Czech Mycology 72(2): 109-150   (published: 24th July, 2020)   Electronic supplement
  abstract   During a survey of 121 plots in the Czech part of the Bohemian Forest (Šumava Mts.) 1168 records of 174 taxa of corticioid fungi were obtained in the years 2017 and 2018. Occurrences of redlisted, rare or otherwise interesting taxa are reviewed. Athelopsis subinconspicua, Cabalodontia subcretacea, Hyphoderma aff. crassescens nom. prov., Kneiffiella cineracea, Lawrynomyces capitatus, Oliveonia sp., Phlebia aff. ryvardenii, Phlebia serialis, Phlebia subulata, Subulicystidium perlongisporum and Xylodon pruinosus are described, illustrated and their taxonomy and ecology is discussed in detail. Data on elevation, host tree species and decay stage of the substrate for all species recorded is summarised in electronic supplement.

HOLEC J., BĚŤÁK J., DVOŘÁK D., KŘÍŽ M., KUCHAŘÍKOVÁ M., KRZYŚCIAK-KOSIŃSKA R., KUČERA T. (2019): Macrofungi on fallen oak trunks in the Białowieża Virgin Forest – ecological role of trunk parameters and surrounding vegetation.   [lignicolous fungi, Quercus robur, Europe, fungal diversity, ecology, wood decay, trunk orientation, forest canopy gaps, heat load.]  Czech Mycology 71(1): 65-89   (published: 18th June, 2019)   Electronic supplement
  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.

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.

Two days of presentations are followed by excursions to the nearby Boubínský and Žofínský virgin forests, the best-preserved old-growth forests in the Czech Republic. The abstracts are arranged in alphabetical order according to the surname of the first (presenting) author.

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.

KOUT J., ZÍBAROVÁ L. (2013): Revision of the genus Cotylidia (Basidiomycota, Hymenochaetales) in the Czech Republic.   [hymenochaetoid clade, taxonomy, distribution, threatened fungi, Europe]  Czech Mycology 65(1): 1-13   (published: 10th June, 2013)
  abstract   To date, three species of the genus Cotylidia have been identified in the Czech Republic: C. muscigena, C. pannosa, and C. undulata. The occurrence of Cotylidia undulata in the Czech Republic was already confirmed and a new locality is published here. The other two species are newly reported from the Czech Republic. The remaining two European Cotylidia species are not yet known from the area studied: C. carpatica and the badly known Mediterranean C. marsicana. Finally one specimen found during the study of herbarium material does not correspond well to any known European species. The genus was reviewed based on fresh and herbarium specimens. The species of Cotylidia are described and an identification key is added. All three species are rarely reported fungi.

JANČOVIČOVÁ S., MIŠÍKOVÁ K., GUTTOVÁ A., BLANÁR D. (2011): The ecological knowledge on Crepidotus kubickae - a case study from central Slovakia.   [Inocybaceae, C. cesatii var. subsphaerosporus, Norway spruce forests, ecology, syntaxonomy]  Czech Mycology 63(2): 215-241   (published: 10th August, 2011)
  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.

  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.

PAŽOUTOVÁ S., ŠRŮTKA P. (2007): Symbiotic relationship between Cerrena unicolor and the horntail Tremex fuscicornis recorded in the Czech Republic.   [Tremex fuscicornis, Cerrena unicolor, Tremicinae, insect–fungus symbiosis]  Czech Mycology 59(1): 83-90   (published: 28th June, 2007)
  abstract   From a specimen of Acer saccharinus collected in a Prague park, 38 females of Tremex fuscicornis (Hymenoptera, Siricidae) were reared and sixteen isolates of a symbiotic basidiomycete were isolated from their mycangia. All isolates shared morphology and RAPD patterns. The fungus was identified using rDNA (regions ITS1, 5.8S, ITS2, and D1D2 part of the 28S rDNA) as Cerrena unicolor (Basidiomycota: Polyporales). The identification is discussed with respect to related horntail taxa and former identification attempts.

  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.

  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   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 mycoflora of southern part of Kremnica Hills was studied by autor in 1990 and 1991. The dominant species of macromycets of beech forest stand were found out after cutting operation with the aid of frequency and occurence stability of determined fungi species. The autumn mycoaspect was characterized by occurence of these dominant fungi species: Hypoxylon fragiforme, Marasmius alliaceus, Hygrophorus ebumeus, Armiilaria ostoyae and others. The spring mycoaspect was characterized by species: Ustulina deusta, Bispora antennata, Collybia dryophila and others. The spring mycoaspect was speciesly poorer in comparison with the autumn mycoaspect in consequence of unfavourable climatic conditions. The wood-rotting fungi species have prevailed on the area. At the same time the species typical for warm-weather oak forests have been finding on the area together with the species of montane beech woods and fir-beech woods.

  abstract   The morphological, physiological and biochemical properties of 4 Trichosporon capitatum strains of human and animal origin were described. Signs differentiating the individual isolates were pointed out and justification of their taxonomic classification was discussed. Further, the sensitivity of the strains to antimycotic preparations in vitro was evaluated: the growth of the organisms was inhibited most with amfotericin B and 5-fluorocytosin. Experimental infection of laboratory mice with one of the strains led to development of systemic mycosis with prevailing kidney damage. Data on the role of T. capitatum in human pathology were surveyed and the opportunistic character of the agent was emphasized.

  abstract   The ecology and geographical distribution of Lopharia spadicea in Czechoslovakia is shown with 135 known localities. The species is rare in Bohemia, northern Moravia, and northern Slovakia but common in southern Slovakia. It grows as a saprophyte on dead branches and trunks, mostly of broadleaf trees such as oaks, acacias, and beeches. Although concentrated in warm areas, it is also found in microclimatically warm and dry sites, qualifying it as a xerophyte.

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   Danish mycologists have for many years organized a small annual national mycological congress, dedicated exclusively to collecting and identifying fungi. In 1968, the author was invited as the sole foreign participant. The congress, supported by the Flora Agaricina Danica foundation, was excellently organized with superior technical facilities. The author expresses gratitude to his Danish hosts and shares comparisons between Danish and Czechoslovak mycoflora.

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.

KOTLABA F. (1968): Excursio autumnalis mycologorum bohemoslovenicorum in silvam Kersko dictam anno 1967.  Česká Mykologie 22(2): 146-148   (published: 1968)
  abstract   The traditional autumn mycological excursion of the Czechoslovak Mycological Society took place on October 8, 1967, in the Kersko forest, instead of the usual location of Karlštejn. About 200 species were recorded, with a notable shift from calciphilous to acidophilous fungi due to different geological conditions.

JURÁŠEK L., SOPKO R., VÁRADI J. (1968): Decomposition of beech wood and holocellulose by supernatants of stationary cultures of wood-destroying fungi.  Česká Mykologie 22(1): 43-49   (published: 1968)
  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.

  abstract   The fungus Xylobolus frustulatus grows exclusively on dead oak wood and causes a characteristic pocket rot. It is rare in Bohemia and Moravia but common in southern Slovakia. The paper discusses its distribution, morphology, and host specificity.

ŠMARDA F. (1967): Die Häufigkeit des Vorkommens von Pilzen in Beziehung zu den Mondphasen.  Česká Mykologie 21(2): 92-97   (published: 1967)
  abstract   The author statistically evaluates the relationship between the number of terrestrial macromycete fruitbodies and the phases of the Moon. The findings partly confirm folk beliefs about increased mushroom growth during the waxing moon.

KOTLABA F., LAZEBNÍČEK J. (1967): the Fourth European Mycological Congress, Poland 1966.  Česká Mykologie 21(1): 54-59   (published: 1967)
  abstract   The Fourth European Mycological Congress took place in Poland in 1966 with participants from 22 countries. The event included scientific presentations, excursions, and social gatherings. The authors summarize key events, locations visited, and prominent attendees such as Moser, Donk, and Malengon.

  abstract   Experimental infections were conducted in the Kladno coal mines using several strains of Trichoderma viride to control wood-decay fungi. Only one strain, isolated from a poplar branch parasitizing Chondroplea populea and Cytospora chrysosperma, was effective against Serpula lacrymans, Heterobasidion annosus, and Fomitopsis pinicola. This early biological wood protection attempt, though discontinued, offers potential for renewed research.

  abstract   A summary of the 1964 working session of the Mycology Group of the Biological Society of the GDR in Halle. Discussions included mapping of macrofungi in Europe, with reports on the distribution of selected species. Notable findings included limited distribution of species such as Sarcosoma globosum, Gomphus clavatus, and the possible existence of two taxa under the name Verpa bohemica. Czech contributions to macrofungi mapping were also presented.

  abstract   The authors report on higher fungi of the Žofínský Virgin Forest near Nové Hrady in Southern Bohemia, the oldest forest reserve in Bohemia. Covering 97 ha at 740–830 m elevation, the forest contains mostly Fagus silvatica, Abies alba, and Picea excelsa. During two excursions, 227 species of higher fungi were collected: 131 Agaricales, 67 Aphyllophorales, 17 Discomycetes, 12 Pyrenomycetes, and 10 Myxomycetes. One new species, Collybia terginoides, and one new variety, Paxillus panuoides var. rubrosquamulosus, are described. Three species were reclassified. New species for Bohemia are marked with an asterisk.

KOTLABA F., PILÁT A. (1964): The Third European Mycological Congress, Scotland 1963.  Česká Mykologie 18(1): 1-6   (published: 25th January, 1964)
  abstract   The Third European Mycological Congress, held in Glasgow, Scotland, from September 1 to 13, 1963, was characterized by excellent organization and a friendly, informal atmosphere. More than 200 participants attended the Congress, which included lectures, laboratory work, excursions, and exhibitions. Although the exhibition of fungi was considered poor, the Congress contributed significantly to scientific exchange and cooperation among European mycologists.
