Abstract The smut fungal genus Microbotryum (Microbotryales, Pucciniomycotina) contains species that parasitize plants from many different lineages of euasterids, with host specificity individual parasite in general being exceptionally high. Additionally, it has been shown the location spore production some is related to dispersal. In this phylogenetic study based on ITS and LSU rDNA data 57 spp., spectra sorus are mapped phylogeny order understand macroevolutionary patterns these two...
This paper presents new records and noteworthy data on the following taxa in SE Europe adjacent regions: red algae Lemanea rigida Paralemanea torulosa, mycorrhizal fungi Amanita simulans Terfezia pseudoleptoderma, parasitic fungus Microbotryum vinosum, saprotrophic Sarcoscypha jurana, stonewort Chara tenuispina, mosses Brachytheciastrum collinum Meesia longiseta, monocots Dactylorhiza romana Neotinea maculata dicots Adenophora liliifolia, Ambrosia artemisiifolia Tanacetum corymbosum subsp....
Th is study endeavors to clarify the taxonomy of Anthracoidea species occurring in East Asia.Being a cosmopolitan genus, more widely distributed temperate and subarctic regions Northern Hemisphere, insuffi ciently studied Asia, particularly Japan Korea.A comprehensive account composition distribution presented herein.Further, information about Kuriles, Sakhalin, Korean Peninsula also provided.Th ree new smut fungi are described illustrated as follows: caricis-grallatoriae on Carex...
A checklist of all taxa lichenized and lichenicolous fungi recorded from Bulgaria is presented. The lichen biota as currently known includes 1137 (1115 species, 5 subspecies, 17 varieties) fungi, 46 species 28 non-lichenized traditionally included in lichenological literature. Lepra corallina reported for the first time Bulgaria. An index synonyms based on literature records appended. It 1761 infrageneric names.
Carex distachya Desf. is a circum-Mediterranean species. Since 1985 two varieties have been distinguished, C. var. and phyllostachioidea Ö.Nilsson. The former widespread, while the latter considered to be restricted West Türkiye East Aegean Islands, but our research has revealed that much more widespread in south-east of Europe, Croatia, Bulgaria, Montenegro, mainland Greece. It seems overlooked these countries so far. As occurs Mediterranean region, we therefore raised this taxon subspecies...
Abstract Carex riloensis was described from Bulgaria as a species morphologically very similar to C. tricolor but differing significantly in the number of chromosomes. This is regarded endemic Bulgaria, recorded only Rila Moutains and Western Rhodopes. The goal this study clarify taxonomic status through an integrative approach that includes comparative morphological, caryological, molecular phylogenetic, genome size investigations. Morphological relationships between examined were tested...
A new family, Erratomycetaceae, is described as distinct from Tilletiaceae based on host specialization, morphological features of the sori and spores, results published molecular phylogenetic analyses.Eight invalidly names Indian smut fungi are discussed.Four these considered to apply species their validated Eballistra punensis, Anthracocystis kolhapurensis, Sporisorium mahabaleshwarense, lohagadense.Th e remaining recognized synonyms validly names.A name, guoae, proposed replace apludae-muticae L.
The first taxonomic treatment of the smut fungi in Greenland is provided. A total 43 species 11 genera are treated and illustrated by photographs sori, microphotographs spores LM SEM, distribution maps. Two species, Anthracoidea pseudofoetidae Urocystis tothii, recorded as new from North America. Thirteen altera, A. capillaris, limosa, liroi, pseudofoetidae, scirpoideae, turfosa, Microbotryum lagerheimii, M. stellariae, Schizonella elynae, Stegocintractia luzulae, fischeri, U. reported for...
Th is checklist contains 252 species of myxomycetes recognized as occurring in Turkey.Th e names are arranged alphabetically.For each species, references cited.An index synonyms, based on literature records from Turkey, appended.
This paper presents new records and noteworthy data on the following taxa in SE Europe adjacent regions: red algae Lemanea fucina Paralemanea annulata, parasitic fungus Anthracoidea pratensis, saprotrophic fungi Cyathus olla, Massaria campestris, Xylaria sicula, stonewort Chara canescens, liverworts Gymnomitrion commutatum Porella baueri, moss Acaulon triquetrum, monocots Anacamptis laxiflora, Cephalanthera damasonium, Himantoglossum robertianum dicot Jacobaea othonnae are given within regions.
The group of the anthericolous Microbotryum species on Silene consists narrowly host-specialized fungi. Despite intensive taxonomic and phylogenetic studies in this over past two decades, actual richness has not yet been fully uncovered. Thirteen these cause typical anther infection, with soral development restricted to anthers. Three other atypical resulting swollen deformed flowers (completely filled spores) affecting both anthers filaments. A comparative morphological study molecular...

Three new species of smut fungi from North America are described and illustrated: Anthracoidea deweyanae on Carex deweyana U.S.A., A. foeneae foenea Canada, savilei norvegica Canada. shaanxiensis is reported for the first time (Canada) a host plant, concinna. This has been known only Chinese localities.

They differ all other species by specialization Ventenata. is distinguished having larger spores a dark cinnamon spore mass, while the mass of very reddish brown. Citation: Denchev & C.
