Abstract Although São Paulo state has one of the best known amphibian fauna in Brazil, there are still protected areas for which the species composition remains unknown. Here, we present the first species list of anuran amphibians in Vassununga State Park. This area is one of the last remnants of semideciduous Atlantic Forest and Cerrado in the northeastern region of São Paulo state, southeastern Brazil. To survey species, we visited six sites (two ponds, two streams, and two transects) in December, January, and February of 2014-2015 and 2015-2016, totalizing 18 days of field samplings at each site. We recorded 24 anuran species belonging to four families: Bufonidae (2 species), Hylidae (11 species), Leptodactylidae (10 species), and Microhylidae (1 species). Anurans consist mainly of generalist and widely distributed species. Although none of the species recorded are threatened with extinction according to the International Red List of Endangered Species (IUCN), four species have declining population and another three species have unknown population trends.

ABSTRACT During a fungi survey in the brazilian Atlantic Forest in São Paulo, São Paulo State, Brazil, polypores growing on decaying wood were collected and fragments of the basidiomata were used to obtain isolates in pure culture. A total of 37 isolates were obtained and 23 species were identified. Cultural features of Bjerkandera atroalba, Henningsia brasiliensis, Rigidoporus undatus, and Steccherinum reniforme were described for the first time. A total of 31 isolates were evaluated in terms of their ability to oxidize the Remazol brilliant blue R dye (RBBR) and guaiacol. The results of these tests indicate that all isolated species were associated with white rot in the wood. Laccase and peroxidase activities were detected by drop tests using solutions of α-naphthol and pyrogallol. Production of cellulases and siderophores was detected with carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) and chrome azurol S (CAS) agar, respectively.

We provide a list of the Pimplinae from the Estação Ecológica dos Caetetus, São Paulo state, Brazil. A total of 286 specimens belonging to 17 species in 10 genera were collected from December 2002 to May 2004. Pimpla and Neotheronia were the most abundant genera with 45% and 10% specimens respectively. Fourteen species of Pimplinae were recorded for the first time from São Paulo state and 3 of them, Neotheronia charli, N. cherfasi and N. lizzae, were recorded for the first time from Brazil. We also provide diagnosis and images of the species.

This paper reports on the genera Cystoderma, Cystodermella and Ripartitella from Atlantic Rainforest, Southeast Brazil. They are represented by Cystoderma chocoanum, Cystodermella contusifolia, C. sipariana and Ripartitella brasiliensis. Cystoderma chocoanum is reported for the first time outside the type locality (Colombia) and its relationship with others species of Cystoderma, based on nLSU rDNA sequences, is discussed.

The genus Echinoporia is characterized by the presence of chlamydospores originating from hairs in the pileus and margin, or the dissepiment edges. Two species of Echinoporia are found in America, i.e., E. aculeifera and E. inermis. In a study of Neotropical polypores, several specimens of Echinoporia were collected in the Atlantic rainforest, São Paulo state. Echinoporia inermis is recorded for the second time in Brazil. Echinoporia aculeifera is recorded for the first time in São Paulo state. A distribution map of the genus in the Neotropics is presented.

We present three new records of the Pantanal cat (Leopardus braccatus) for the São Paulo state, Brazil. The records are from highly anthropized areas in the Atlantic Forest biome and are based on three roadkilled animals. Based on our records and on other recent examples of open-area dwellers recently recorded in Atlantic Forest areas, we discuss whether the new records reflect a range expansion of the Pantanal cat.

An updated checklist of xylophilous Agaricomycetes from the Brazilian Cerrado showed 127 species, 22 families and nine orders (Agaricales, Atheliales, Auriculariales, Corticiales, Gloeophyllales, Hymenochaetales, Polyporales, Russulales, and Thelephorales). The new list includes new specimens collected between 2009 and 2011 in Reserva Biológica de Mogi-Guaçu, São Paulo State, Brazil, and a revision of material previously known from Cerrado. Twelve species are mentioned for the first time for Brazil and 51 are recorded as new for the Cerrado.

The herpetofauna of São Paulo State, Brazil, can be characterized as the most well-known in the country. However, despite the large number of studies in this area, there are still many sampling gaps within biomes such as the Atlantic Forest that are considered global conservation priorities due to the high rate of endemism and human disturbance. As a result of political and historical pressure, this biome has been reduced to less than 12% of its original extent and, despite its importance for global biodiversity conservation, only a small percentage of its original vegetation cover (1%) has some form of legal protection. This is the case of the Parque Estadual Turístico do Alto Ribeira (PETAR) which, together with the Parque Estadual de Intervales, Parque Estadual Carlos Botelho and Mosaico de Unidades de Conservação de Jacupiranga, forms of an ombrophilous forest continuum of 360 thousand ha in the south of São Paulo State. This study presents a list of amphibians and reptiles from the PETAR, with information on the local distribution and habitat use of the species. The survey was conducted from October to December 2009, completing a total of 15 sampling days using four complementary methods of active sampling: visual encounters, auditory encounters, searches by car and incidental encounters. We recorded a total of 91 species belonging to 53 genera and 24 families. This high diversity can be attributed to the existence of a wide variety of habitats and microhabitats in this region, such as the various aquatic sites used by many species of anuran amphibians. Moreover, the PETAR features a large altitudinal gradient (80 - 1,160 m elevation) that gives a large climatic, geological and hydrological heterogeneity to the area. This inventory is an important contribution to the expansion of knowledge about these assemblages in the Atlantic Forest to the south of Serra de Paranapiacaba mountain range, and provides support for the conservation of these groups in São Paulo State.
