The Amsterdam Declaration on Fungal Nomenclature was agreed at an international symposium convened in 19-20 April 2011 under the auspices of International Commission Taxonomy Fungi (ICTF). purpose to address issue whether or how current system naming pleomorphic fungi should be maintained changed now that molecular data are routinely available. is urgent as mycologists currently follow different practices, and no consensus achieved by a Special Committee appointed 2005 Botanical Congress...
An overview of the phylogeny Agaricales is presented based on a multilocus analysis six-gene region supermatrix. Bayesian analyses 5611 nucleotide characters rpb1, rpb1-intron 2, rpb2 and 18S, 25S, 5.8S ribosomal RNA genes recovered six major clades, which are recognized informally labeled Agaricoid, Tricholomatoid, Marasmioid, Pluteoid, Hygrophoroid Plicaturopsidoid clades. Each clade discussed in terms key morphological ecological traits. At least 11 origins ectomycorrhizal habit appear to...
Molecular phylogenies using 1–4 gene regions and information on ecology, morphology pigment chemistry were used in a partial revision of the agaric family Hygro- phoraceae. The phylogenetically supported genera we recognize here Hygrophoraceae based these previous analyses are: Acantholichen, Ampulloclitocybe, Arrhenia, Cantharellula, Cantharocybe, Chromosera, Chrysomphalina, Cora, Corella, Cuphophyllus, Cyphellostereum, Dictyonema, Eonema, Gliophorus, Haasiella, Humidicutis, Hygroaster,...
The 18th International Botanical Congress, held in Melbourne, Australia, during July 2011, ratified several sweeping changes that will affect fungal nomenclature for years to come. Proposals amend the Vienna Code were approved by Nomenclature Section first week (July 18–22) and entire IBC on final day 30). Of particular interest mycologists are a new title (International of algae, fungi, plants), radical modification Article 59 establishing principle 'one fungus : one name', valid...
Abstract With the change to one scientific name for fungal taxa, generic names typified by species with sexual or asexual morph types are being evaluated determine which represent same genus and thus compete use. In this paper of Agaricomycotina ( Basidiomycota ) were synonymy based on their type. Forty-seven sets sexually asexually determined be congeneric recommendations made most cases principle priority is followed. However, 16 recommended use that do not have need protected:...
In this study, 49 species of Hydnum are recognized worldwide. Twenty-two them described here as new species. Epitypes proposed for H. repandum and rufescens. The majority the currently known only from a single continent. barcodes produced in study deposited RefSeq database used basis to name hypotheses UNITE. Eleven infrageneric clades recovered phylogenetic analysis supported by morphological characteristics formally recognized: subgenera Alba, Hydnum, Pallida, Rufescentia; sections...
Fungal biodiversity studies on the Olympic peninsula, Washington, have uncovered key to understanding one of most enigmatic mushroom genera worldwide. Discovery a (Squamanita contortipes) another grossly distorted but identifiable agaric (Galerina sp.), which retained partial fertility and morphology, provides documentation parasitism gall formation by genus Squamanita. This revelation leads reinterpretation all Squamanitas as commingled hosts parasites supplies simple explanation for...
The proceedings of the 3–5 August 2010, IMC9 Edinburgh Nomenclature Sessions are briefly summarized. final resolution approved by General Assembly endorses recommendations regarding transfer governance fungal nomenclature from botanical to mycological congresses, mandatory pre-publication deposit nomenclatural information for valid publication new names, and acceptability English as an alternative Latin in names. Complete results questionnaire also provided.
Abstract The following five generic names are recommended for conservation: Cladia against Heterodea ; Hemipholiota Nemecomyces Lactarius with conserved type; Mixia Phytoceratiomyxa Stirtonia A.L. Sm. R. Br. bis; the specific also Aspicilia aquatica Lichen mazarinus Dermatocarpon bucekii ( Placopyrenium ) Placidium steineri; Hebeloma cylindrosporum angustispermum; Psoroma versicolor (Degeliella versicolor) subdescendens; Thelephora comedens (Vuilleminia comedens) type. Lecidea epiploica is...
A species of Inocybe common in Washington, Oregon and British Columbia is documented described as new. The species, I. chondroderma, characterized by these features: pileus with a fulvous disk ochraceous to chamois margin, presence cortina, densely mycelioid stipe base, smooth spores fall phenology. most reliable distinctive feature the blue-green or turquoise reaction response application solution p-dimethylaminobenzaldehyde (PDAB), indicating what likely an indole alkaloid. PDAB use...
Abstract The following names are recommended for conservation: Pseudocercospora against Stigmina and Phaeoisariopsis; Boletus applanatus B. lipsiensis; Lyophyllum with L. semitale as conserved type; Roccellina Roccellaria; Psilocybe P. semilanceata Calvatia nom. cons. Lanopila; Phaeographis Cre‐ographa, Ectographis, Flegographa, Hymenodecton, Platygramma, Pyrographa dendritica type. As a result of reference under Art. 32.4, the Committee recommends that descriptive statement accompanying...
Summary The Committee supports recognition of multiple official repositories over a single repository, and accepted three: Fungal Names, Index Fungorum, MycoBank starting 1 January 2013, noting that parties representing the three have signed Memorandum Cooperation expires immediately following next International Botanical Congress in 2017. effectiveness this arrangement will be evaluated reviewed by 2014 when Mycological must ratify NCF recommendations.
The leaf-spot pathogen Valdensiniaheterodoxa Peyronel is reported for the first time from United States (Idaho, Washington, and Oregon), based on recovery of anamorph. Scanning electron micrographs illustrate anamorphic propagules collected economically significant ericaceous hosts Gaultheriashallon Pursh, Vacciniumalaskaense Howell, Vacciniummembranaceum Douglas.
Abstract Niu‐chang‐chih, a medicinal polypore restricted to Taiwan on the endemic tree species Cinnamomum kanehirae , currently goes by names Antrodia cinnamomea T.T. Chang & W.N. Chou, A. camphorata (M. Zang C.H. Su) Sheng H. Wu al., and Taiwanofungus camphoratus latter two based Ganoderma camphoratum M. Su. The basidiocarps holotypes for basionyms are of niu‐chang‐chih. first validly published name that was applied this G. Su in 1990. However, original type consisted mixed material,...
