Some new recordeds of macrofungi from the Ngoc Linh mountain, Quang Nam province, Vietnam

Among 276 species of class Agaricomycetes isolated from the Ngoc Linh mountain, Quang Nam Province, we identified and recorded eight new species of macrofungi in Vietnam, namely Cymatoderma caperatum, Amanita xanthogala, Chlorophllum brunneum, Chlorophyllum hortense, Hymenopellis megalospora, Psathyrella longipes, Russula cystidiosa, and Serpula lacrymans. The morphologies, anatomical characteristics as well as applications of these species were demonstrated. Among these 8 newly recorded species in Vietnam, 2 species are edible mushrooms and 3 another species may be poisonous mushrooms.

Petrified Wood

We describe a new fossil wood species of pine, Pinuxylon selmeierianum sp. nov., for a piece of petrified wood encased within a concretion that was recovered in marine, fine-grained sandstones of the Paleogene Eureka Sound Group on Wootton Peninsula, Ellesmere Island. The fossil wood is allochthonous, having drifted in from a nearby landmass. Within the fossil wood genus Pinuxylon Gothan, 1905, Pinuxylon selmeierianum sp. nov. shares anatomical characteristics with the haploxylon sections Parrya Mayr, 1890 and Strobus Little and Critchfield, 1969. The new species is most closely related to the extant Pinus lambertiana Douglas, 1827, a species belonging to section Strobus. Our study provides the first evidence for a fossil Pinus Linné, 1753 on Wootton Peninsula, supporting the idea that Pinus was an “Arctic conifer”, and providing insights into Paleogene vegetation at high latitudes.

Variable Species

Lepidosperma laterale exhibits much morphological variation across its geographical range. This study included L. laterale, and morphologically similar species, as well as several comparator species. Phenetic analyses based on 27 morphological and 25 vegetative anatomical characteristics were undertaken in an attempt to resolve taxonomic issues within the study group. Evidence for broadening the delimitation of L. laterale is strong as OTUs of this variable species formed a group with indistinct clusters in all analyses. The mixed, diffuse clusters obtained of OTUs of specimens identified as L. gunnii with specimens of L. laterale suggest that the species limits of the former lie within the limits of the latter. Specimens of most other study group taxa formed relatively cohesive, discrete clusters in ordination and cluster analyses. The results provide strong support for recognition of L. sp. Whian Whian S.F. (J. Hodgon 331 & D.M. Hodgon) and L. sp. Mt Coolum (P.R. Sharpe 5605A) as new species.

A New Species

A new species of Microlestes Schmidt-Gobel, 1846 is described from the southwest of the Iberian Peninsula, Portugal. This new species was found in the Rede Natura 2000 Serra de Monchique area (Algarve). Microlestes aljezurensis n. sp. presents three anatomical characteristics that make it a very singular species: 1) unlike other Microlestes species, it shows a pronounced sexual dimorphism in the legs in the form of dentiform processes, more or less conspicuous, in the male mesofemur, mesotibia and metatibia; 2) the last abdominal sternite shows a slight marginal notch in the male; and 3) the median lobe of the aedeagus shows a tooth on the ventral side. Comments on the ecology and distribution are presented for this species. An illustrated key to the identification of the Iberian-Balearic species, with illustrations of the genitalia and other anatomical characteristics, is also included.

A new cestode of unusual anatomical characteristics was collected from a group of Gerbillus pyramidum caught in August 1953, in the vicinity of Tel Aviv. It appears to be a new species of a new genus for which the name of Rajotaenia gerbilli n.g. n.sp. is proposed. Thanks are due to Mr M. Costa for collecting the infected rodents.

A New Species

Lactarius sect. Deliciosi includes a group of edible mushrooms with a worldwide geographical distribution. Although several species are considered choice edible mushrooms, taxonomic knowledge on this group in Asia is still fragmentary. A new species in L. sect. Deliciosi with orange latex, L. vividus, is described as an important wild edible mushroom that is widely distributed in central and southern China. Morphological analyses demonstrate that L. vividus encompasses high infraspecific morphological variation, which makes it difficult to clearly delimit its taxonomic boundary. Compared with other species having orange latex in L. sect. Deliciosi, L. vividus can be recognized by the vividly colored, subdistant to distant lamellae and heavy basidiospore ornamentation. It has been found to grow with four species of Pinus subg. Pinus including P. latteri, P. massoniana, P. taiwanensis and P. thunbergii. Phylogenetic analyses of the ITS region and glyceraldehyde-3-phophate dehydrogenase gene (gpd) support species delimitation and suggest ITS and gpd are good DNA markers to identify this new species.
