A New Species

Basidiocarps of an undescribed dacrymycetous species were collected from Pinus densiflora forests in Japan and described as a new species, Femsjonia uniseptata, based on both morphological characteristics and phylogenetic analysis. This new species is characterized by having discoid to applanate basidiocarps with white hairs at the margins; thin-walled internal and marginal hyphae with clamp connections; and 0–1-septate basidiospores. A detailed description, line drawings, phylogenetic tree to show the placement of F. uniseptata and comparison of the new species with allied taxa are provided.

A New Species

Suillus marginielevatus sp. nov. and S. triacicularis are reported from Himalayan moist temperate forests of Pakistan in association with conifers. Morphologically S. marginielevatus is close to S. sibiricus, S. granulatus and S. intermedius but it can be distinguished by uplifted pileus margin and curved stipe with no ring at all stages. Phylogenetic analysis of internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region showed that this species form separate clade from other closely related Suillus species. Suillus triacicularis represents a new record for Pakistani mycobiota. Field photographs of fresh basidocarps and line drawings of microcharacters are provided along with phylogenetic tree.

Fungal Genus

A strain of the fungal genus Mariannaea, isolated from decayed leaves of Japanese red pine (Pinus densiflora), was identified to be a new species based on its molecular phylogeny and morphology. Molecular phylogenetic analysis revealed that the fungus belongs to a clade containing M. punicea and related species (M. punicea-related species) and that it forms a lineage independent of these species. Microscopic morphological comparisons with M. punicea-related species indicated that the new isolate differs with respect to the width of the phialides and length of the conidiophores. Comparison of macroscopic morphological characteristics revealed that M. punicea-related species are characterized by reddish-purple colonies, whereas the new isolate lacks this distinctive pigmentation. Moreover, the surface structure of the colonies of this fungus has a distinct irregular undulate pattern toward the margins. Given that this isolate can be clearly distinguished from the known M. punicea-related species, we consider the fungus to be a newly identified species, for which we propose the name Mariannaea imbricata sp. nov.

A new polypore, Ceriporia albomellea, collected from tropical China, is described and illustrated based on morphological characteristics and molecular evidence. It is characterized by thin, resupinate basidiome with a white subiculum, cottony margin, white to cinnamon-buff pores, clavate cystidia and oblong-ellipsoid basidiospores measured as 3.1–3.8 × 1.7–2 µm. Phylogenetic analysis based on the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions and nuclear large subunit (nLSU) ribosomal RNA gene regions supported C. albomellea as a distinctive species belonging to Ceriporia.

Roussoella guttulata sp. nov. (Roussoellaceae) was found on bamboo culms collected in the northeast of Thailand. Roussoella guttulata differs from other species in having immersed, gregarious, black pseudoascostromata, single and central ostiole with periphyses, thin-walled peridium composed of cells of textura angularis to textura prismatica and yellowish brown ascospores. The multigene phylogenetic analysis shows that the new species forms a distinct lineage basal to R. hysterioides, R. japanensis, R. scabrispora and R. verrucispora. The new species is compared with closely related Roussoella species. A full description, color photo plates and a phylogenetic tree to show the placement of the new species are provided.

A New Species

The identification of Auricularia species has previously relied on the examination of macroscopic features of mushroom samples collected in Thailand. These features may vary with age, light exposure, moisture and other factors, making such identification prone to error. This study uses morphological characteristics and molecular data to improve upon previous classifications of Auricularia species. Fruiting bodies collected during recent field excursions and previous collections from herbaria were examined and sequenced for two loci, viz. ITS and rpb2. Auricularia asiatica is described as a new species based on both morphological characteristics and molecular data, and is introduced with a full description, illustrations and colour photographs. Auricularia cornea and A. villosula are described as new records from Thailand. A combined ITS and rpb2 phylogenetic tree is provided, showing the placement of five Auricularia species found in Thailand.

Five species are reported for South America, four of which are known from Brazil, and Ceraceomyces atlanticus is here introduced as a new species.

A New Species

Species in Lecanicillium are pathogens that parasitize various arthropods, nematodes, and other fungi. In an investigation of intestinal fungi associated with Marmota monax in China, three strains belonging to the genus Lecanicillium were isolated from the fresh fecal samples. Based on multi-locus phylogenetic analysis of the combined sequences (ITS, LSU, SSU, TEF, RPB1 and RPB2) and morphological characteristics, all species in Lecanicillium were well-separated. The three intestinal strains were assigned to a new species described as L. coprophilum in this paper. The new species differs morphologically from other Lecanicillium species by its dimensions of conidiogenous cells and conidia, the shape of conidia, dictyochlamydospores and swollen hyphae. The differences of L. coprophilum from other Lecanicillium species and closely related taxa are briefly discussed.

A New Species

During a mycological survey of freshwater hyphomycetes on submerged leaves in southwest China, a new species, Anacraspedodidymum submersum, was isolated. The new species A. submersum is characterized by having monophialidic conidiogenous cells with funnel shaped collarettes and globose or subglobose, aseptate and hyaline conidia. Morphologically, A. submersum is somewhat similar to A. aquaticum and A. hyalosporum in conidiophores and conidiogenous cells, but can be easily distinguished by its subglobose to globose and smaller conidia. Phylogenetic analysis of combined ITS and LSU sequences show that the new species of Anacraspedodidymum clustered together with the genus Thozetella in Chaetosphaeriaceae. A full description, illustrations and a phylogenetic tree showing the position of A. submersum are provided herein.

During a survey of rhizosphere soil fungi of Eucommia ulmoides in China, three Gongronella strains were isolated. Phylogenetic analysis showed that these strains grouped into a separate subclade, closely related to Gongronella sichuanensis. The new strains could be distinguished from G. sichuanensis by the smooth-walled, subglobose, or conical-cylindrical apophyses. Both phylogenetic analysis and morphological characteristics supported the three strains being a new species, named as Gongronella zunyiensis.

A new species of Polyporales, named as Skeletocutis yunnanensis, was collected on angiosperm wood in northern Yunnan Province, southwestern China. It is described based on morphological characteristics and molecular evidence. The species belongs to the Skeletocutis subincarnata complex, but differs morphologically from all known species of the genus by white, cream to buff pores surface, angular pores mostly 5–6 per mm with entire mouths, a dimitic hyphal structure both in trama and subiculum, generative hyphae in whole basidiocarps covered by fine crystals, skeletal hyphae unchanged in KOH, not agglutinated, allantoid basidiospores measured as 3.5–4.5 × 1.0–1.2 µm, and growth on angiosperm wood. Phylogenetic analysis based on the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions and nuclear large subunit (nLSU) ribosomal RNA gene regions indicated that the new species grouped with Skeletocutis and nested in the tyromyces clade.
