Craterellus albidus is proposed as a new species based on both morphological evidence and DNA analyses. Morphologically, Cr. albidus is characterized by its small-sized whitish pileus, smooth to slightly folded hymenium, white to lemon-yellow stipe, ellipsoid to broadly ellipsoid basidiospores with a size of 7.8–11 × 6.1–8.2 µm, and a cutis pileipellis. Phylogenetic analyses based on the nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions and the large subunit ribosomal RNA (nrLSU) region provide further evidence that the described specimens represent a new species.

The genus Cantharellus, commonly known as chanterelles, has recently been divided into six subgenera, however, wider sampling approaches are needed to clarify the relationships within and between these groups. A phylogenetic overview of Cantharellus subgenus Parvocantharellus in China was inferred based on the large subunit nuclear ribosomal RNA gene (nrLSU), the DNA-directed RNA polymerase II subunit 2 (rpb2), and the transcription elongation factor 1-alpha (tef1). A total of nine species from China were assigned to the subgenus, including seven novel species, namely Cantharellusaurantinus, C. austrosinensis, C. galbanus, C. luteolus, C. luteovirens, C. minioalbus, and C. sinominior, and two known species, namely C. albus and C. zangii. The detailed descriptions and illustrations were provided based on the newly obtained data, with the comparisons to closely related species. C. zangii was restudied based on the paratype specimens and multiple new collections from the type locality. Futhermore, the Indian species C. sikkimensis was identified as a synonym of C. zangii based on the morphological and molecular analyses. A key to the Chinese species belonging to the subg. Parvocantharellus is also provided.

Yellow chanterelles are one of the most common edible mushrooms found in Yunnan Province, China. Previous studies identified the species of these mushrooms as Cantharellus cibarius Fr. based on morphology alone. However, the diversity of yellow chanterelles comprises many species within the C. cibarius complex, including C. yunnanensis W.F. Chiu. We hypothesized that the latter species is widely marketed in Yunnan Province and does not actually belong to C. cibarius. Hence, to confirm the species identity, taxonomic re-evaluation using integrated taxonomic approaches is required. Herein, samples collected from different markets and from near the type locality were subjected to morphological and molecular analyses. We generated tef-1α sequences and analyzed them using the maximum likelihood and Bayesian inference methods. The study revealed that the specimens previously identified as C. cibarius with a wide distribution in southwestern China are indeed C. yunnanensis. Our morphological assessment was markedly influenced by the revision of the type specimen (C. yunnanensis) and its original description, as some characteristics of the specimen did not match the description (e.g., the size and shape of the spores). Similarly, our single-locus phylogenetic analysis strongly supported the identification of the marketed species in Southwestern China (Guizhou and Yunnan Provinces) as C. yunnanensis instead of C. cibarius. Following our findings, we epitypified C. yunnanensis. Additionally, we collected, identified, and confirmed the presence of C. cibarius in northeastern China.

The authors discuss several African Cantharellus Adans.: Fr. species with lilac-purplish tinges on the pileus or stipe surface collected in the Central African rain forest or West African gallery forests. The morphology of C. longisporus Heinem. is discussed on the basis of new Central African collections and found profoundly different from two previously described subspecies from Madagascar which are here recombined as C. littoralis (Buyck & Randrianjohany) Buyck, comb. et stat. nov., and C. isaloensis (Buyck & Eyssartier) Buyck, comb. et stat. nov. Cantharellus xanthocyaneus Ndolo Ebika & Buyck, sp. nov., a new look-alike of C. cyanoxanthus R.Heim ex Heinem. with considerably smaller basidiospores is described, as well as a new chanterelle species from Togo, viz. C. violaceoflavescens De Kesel, Guelly, L.A.Parra & Buyck, sp. nov., that in the field is reminiscent of C. littoralis (Buyck & Randrianjohany) Buyck, comb. et stat. nov. A multigene phylogeny places both new species Cantharellus xanthocyaneus Ndolo Ebika & Buyck, sp. nov., and Cantharellus violaceoflavescens De Kesel, Guelly, L.A.Parra & Buyck, sp. nov., in the subgenera Parvocantharellus Eyssart. & Buyck and Pseudocantharellus Eyssart. & Buyck respectively, and Cantharellus littoralis (Buyck & Randrianjohany) Buyck, comb. et stat. nov., in the subgenus Cinnabarini Buyck & V.Hofst.

The corticioid fungi from Santa Catarina Island mangroves were surveyed, and 42 specimens corresponding to 15 species and 13 genera were identified. The most commonly found species was Hjortstamia crassa, and the Itacorubi mangrove was the area where more specimens were found (17 out of 42 specimens). Most of the specimens were collected on dead wood, and the most common host was Avicennia schaueriana. Six species were previously unknown from mangroves around the world; Phanerochaete subglobosa is recorded for the first time outside Asia, Hjortstamia amethystea is newly reported from Southern Brazil, and four species are new records from the State of Santa Catarina. Taxonomic remarks are given for the treated species, and an updated checklist of xylophilous fungi and pseudofungi (Myxomycetes) known from Santa Catarina Island mangroves is provided.

The family Hydnaceae (Cantharellales, Basidiomycota) is a group of fungi found worldwide which exhibit stichic nuclear division. The group is highly diverse in morphology, ecology, and phylogeny, and includes some edible species which are popular all over the world. Traditionally, Hydnaceae together with Cantharellaceae, Clavulinaceae and Sistotremataceae are four families in the Cantharellales. The four families were combined and redefined as “Hydnaceae”, however, a comprehensive phylogeny based on multiple-marker dataset for the entire Hydnaceae sensu stricto is still lacking and the delimitation is also unclear. We inferred Maximum Likelihood and Bayesian phylogenies for the family Hydnaceae from the data of five DNA regions: the large subunit of nuclear ribosomal RNA gene (nLSU), the internal transcribed spacer regions (ITS), the mitochondrial small subunit rDNA gene (mtSSU), the second largest subunit of RNA polymerase II (RPB2) and the translation elongation factor 1-alpha gene (TEF1). We also produced three more phylogenetic trees for Cantharellus based on 5.8S, nLSU, mtSSU, RPB2 and TEF1, Craterellus and Hydnum both based on the combined nLSU and ITS. This study has reproduced the status of Hydnaceae in the order Cantharellales, and phylogenetically confirmed seventeen genera in Hydnaceae. Twenty nine new taxa or synonyms are described, revealed, proposed, or reported, including eight new subgenera (Cantharellus subgenus Magnus, Craterellus subgenus Cariosi, subg. Craterellus, subg. Imperforati, subg. Lamelles, subg. Longibasidiosi, subg. Ovoidei, and Hydnum subgenus Brevispina); seventeen new species (Ca. laevihymeninus, Ca. magnus, Ca. subminor, Cr. badiogriseus, Cr. croceialbus, Cr. macrosporus, Cr. squamatus, H. brevispinum, H. flabellatum, H. flavidocanum, H. longibasidium, H. pallidocroceum, H. pallidomarginatum, H. sphaericum, H. tangerinum, H. tenuistipitum and H. ventricosum); two synonyms (Ca. anzutake and Ca. tuberculosporus as Ca. yunnanensis), and two newly recorded species (H. albomagnum and H. minum). The distinguishing characters of the new species and subgenera as well as their allied taxa are discussed in the notes which follow them. The delimitation and diversity in morphology, ecology, and phylogeny of Hydnaceae is discussed. Notes of seventeen genera which are phylogenetically accepted in Hydnaceae by this study and a key to the genera in Hydnaceae are provided.

Lichenicolous species are widely distributed in the Basidiomycota, and many are known to produce sclerotia or bulbils with few additional structures to permit taxonomic placement. The Cantharellales include many of these species and we here describe a new species that grows over Cladonia rangiferina and forms yellow-orange, initially immersed bulbils similar to Burgella flavoparmeliae Diederich & Lawrey, a familiar species in the order. We obtained sequences of nuLSU representing an isolated culture and herbarium specimen of the species, and initial searches in GenBank indicated it was a member of the Cantharellales. We inferred its phylogenetic placement in the order using an existing dataset that included all known lichenicolous species. Our results indicate that it is not closely related to any described lichenicolous species or to any other described bulbilliferous species in the order. Based on these results, we are now establishing a new genus and species, Neoburgoa freyi, in the Hydnaceae sensu Hibbett et al. (2014). We also introduce the new name Adamflakia for the genus Bulbilla as the latter coincides with the technical term ‘bulbilla' used in previous descriptions of bulbil-forming species and is therefore not validly published following the ICN (Art. 20.2); Adamflakia applanata comb. nov. is proposed.

Lichenicolous species are widely distributed in the Basidiomycota, and many are known to produce sclerotia or bulbils with few additional structures to permit taxonomic placement. The Cantharellales include many of these species and we here describe a new genus and species discovered in Austria that grows over Physcia aipolia and P. stellaris and forms minute dark reddish brown bulbils reminiscent of Ceratobasidium bulbillifaciens but much smaller in size. We obtained sequences of ITS and nuLSU rDNA representing the herbarium specimen of the species, and initial searches in GenBank indicated it was a member of the Cantharellales, with closest relatives in the genus Minimedusa. We inferred its phylogenetic placement in the order using an existing dataset that included all known lichenicolous species, augmented by sequences obtained by BLAST searches in GenBank. Our results indicate that the unknown is not closely related to any described lichenicolous species or to any other described bulbilliferous species in the order. Based on these results, we are now establishing a new genus and species, Bergerella atrofusca, in the Cantharellales family Hydnaceae.

Five species of Hydnum have been generally recognized from eastern North America based on morphological recognition: H.albidum, H.albomagnum, H.repandum and varieties, H.rufescens, and H.umbilicatum. Other unique North American species, such as H.caespitosum and H.washingtonianum, are either illegitimately named or considered synonymous with European taxa. Here, seventeen phylogenetic species of Hydnum are detected from eastern North America based on a molecular phylogenetic survey of ITS sequences from herbarium collections and GenBank data, including environmental sequences. Based on current distribution results, sixteen of these species appear endemic to North America. Of these, six species are described as new: H.alboaurantiacum, H.cuspidatum, H.ferruginescens, H.subconnatum, H.subtilior, and H.vagabundum. Geographic range extensions and taxonomic notes are provided for five additional species recently described as new from eastern North America. A new name, H.geminum, is proposed for H.caespitosum Banning ex Peck, non Valenti. Overall, species of Hydnum are best recognized by a combination of morphological and molecular phylogenetic analyses. Taxonomic descriptions are provided for seventeen species, including epitype designations for H.albidum, H.albomagnum, and H.umbilicatum, taxa described more than 100 years ago, and molecular annotation of the isotype of H.washingtonianum. Photographs and a key to eastern North American Hydnum species are presented.

A new species of the genus Hydnum, H. minum, with whitish basidiomata, is described and illustrated from Japan based on morphological and phylogenetic analyses. This species is characterized by small basidiomata (1–2.5 cm in height), spinose hymenophores with small, conical to aciculate spines (0.5–1.7 mm in length, 150–250 μm in diameter), subclavate to suburniform basidia with 5–8 sterigmata, and subglobose to broadly ovoid basidiospores measuring 4.5–5.5 × 3–4.5 μm. In addition, H. albidum, H. albomagnum, newly recorded in Japan, and H. repandum var. album are analyzed using molecular tools. The four taxa were confirmed as each individual taxon by the molecular phylogenetic analysis using complete nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer regions.

Wood‐decay fungi are important in forest ecosystems and play an important role in nutrient and carbon recycling. The scope of this research was to identify wood‐inhabiting and wood‐decay macrofungi and determine their ecology. We sampled standing trees and dead wood of oak and hornbeam in the northern forests of Iran, specifically in Mazandaran and Golestan provinces. We assessed the influence of field slope, elevation, site direction and the height of fungal sporocarp position on the tree. The species of wood‐inhabiting and wood‐decay fungi belonged to 11 families: Polyporaceae; Stereaceae; Ganodermataceae; Physalacriaceae; Agaricaceae; Xylariaceae; Pluteaceae; Coprinaceae; Strophariaceae; Pleurotaceae; and Hydnaceae. The most common fungal species identified belonged to the Polyporaceae and Ganodermataceae and predominantly grew on trees growing on a slope of 20%, at an altitude of 700–900 m, 0–3 m from the ground a southwesterly site direction and the northern sides of both tree species. These results indicated that field slope was the most important factor in determining fungal sporocarp abundance.

Craterellus luteus sp. nov. is described from China. It is characterized by a light yellow to greenish yellow pileus, white to yellowish white hymenophore, broad basidiospores and lack of aromatic odor. Detailed morphological description, photographs and comparisons with phenetically similar taxa are provided.

The components of the volatile oil from dried fruiting bodies of Hericium erinaceus (Bull.: Fr.) Pers. were analyzed by capillary GC and GC/MS. Seventy-seven components, representing 87.6% of the total oil were identified. The main components of the oil were hexadecanoic acid (26.0%), linoleic acid (13.1%), phenylacetaldehyde (8.9%) and benzaldehyde (2.5%). The oil from H. erinaceus was also carried out odor evaluation by GC/MS/Olfactometry and aroma extract dilution analysis (AEDA). As a result, 2-methyl-3-furanthiol, 2-ethylpyrazine and 2,6-diethylpyrazine were considered to be principal contributors of H. erinaceus odor.

Eight different species of wild edible mushrooms ( Cantharellus cibarius, Hydnum repandum, Lactarius salmonicolor, Xerocomus chrysenteron, Agaricus cupreobrunneus, Amanita franchetii, Hygrophorus eburneus and Hygrophorus chrysodon ) representing seven different families ( Cantharellaceae, Hydnaceae, Boletaceae, Russulaceae, Agaricaceae, Amanitaceae, Hygrophoraceae ) growing in Epirus (Ioannina) and West Macedonia (Grevena, Kastoria), regions of Greece were analyzed by atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS) for their metal (Mg, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Pb, Cd, Al, As and Sn) content. All metal concentrations were determined on a dry weight basis (d.w.). The metal content of mushroom samples ranged from 739–1165 μg/g d.w. for Mg, 0.41 to 13.1 μg/g d.w. for Cr, 11.4 to 100 μg/g d.w. for Mn, 46.3 to 317 μg/g d.w. for Fe, not detected–3.34 μg/g d.w. for Co, 0.28 to 10.1 μg/g d.w. for Ni, 3.80 to 32.6 μg/g d.w. for Cu, 35.9 to 96.9 μg/g d.w. for Zn, not detected–1.37 μg/g d.w. for Pb and 0.08 to 0.41 μg/g d.w. for Cd. As, Sn and Al concentrations were under the detection limit of the method used. This research proves that wild edible fungi which consumed traditionally in Epirus (Ioannina) and West Macedonia (Grevena, Kastoria), Greece can be used in well-balanced diets due to their high contents of functional minerals. Also, their low contents of heavy metals (Pb, Cd and As) shows that collection areas are not polluted, therefore all collected edible mushroom species can be unreservedly consumed without any health risk.

In this paper, the authors report on first Craterellus collections from the poorly explored tropical deciduous scrub forest of Rajmahal hills, Jharkhand, India. In this habitat, dominated by Shorea robusta (Dipterocarpaceae), a yellow to orange craterelloid species was abundantly growing in caespitose troops all over the forest floor. Morphological analysis and sequence data from the nucLSU revealed these specimens to belong to a hitherto undescribed Craterellus. As the new species is morphologically identical to Pterygellus polymorphus var. minor, our results suggest that Pterygellus is a later synonym of Craterellus.

A new species Sistotrema macabouense sp. nov., collected in Martinique (French West Indies), is described and illustrated. The differences to closely related species are discussed.

Os fungos corticioides são um grupo artificial caracterizado pelos basidiomas ressupinados a estipitados, com o himenóforo liso, pregueado, tuberculado, espinhoso, denteado ou raramente com poros verdadeiros. A maioria das espécies possui os basídios não septados (homobasidiomicetos), e somente essas são incluídas neste trabalho. Com o objetivo de ampliar o conhecimento sobre esses organismos na Região Sul do Brasil, um estudo taxonômico foi conduzido a partir de revisões de herbário e análises de espécimes coletados entre 2010 e 2012 no três estados da Região Sul. Dados de literatura também foram compilados com o objetivo de fornecer um quadro do atual conhecimento sobre o grupo estudado na região. São reconhecidas 226 espécies, pertencentes a 93 gêneros. Dessas espécies, 164 são conhecidas para o Rio Grande do Sul, 71 para o Paraná e 64 para Santa Catarina. Acanthocystidium brueggemannii é descrito como gênero e espécie novos; Athelia fibulata e Steccherinum subcrinale são citadas pela primeira vez para a América do Sul; 12 espécies são registradas pela primeira vez para o Brasil, 16 para a Região Sul, seis para o Paraná, seis para o Rio Grande do Sul e quatro para Santa Catarina. Além disso, 16 novas combinações, um nome novo, nove lectotipificações e duas epitificações são propostas, e Epithele bambusina é aceito como um nome correto para uma espécie válida. Análises filogenéticas dos marcadores nucleares ITS e LSU foram conduzidas para fins específicos: avaliar a posição filogenética de A. brueggemannii, que está relacionada com fungos cifeloides em Agaricales; e verificar a posição filogenética de Hydnum peroxydatum (espécie tipo de Hydnochaete), o que resultou na sinonímia de Hydnochaete com Hymenochaete. Descrições e ilustrações das estruturas microscópicas são fornecidas para espécies pouco tratadas na literatura. Além disso, são fornecidas chaves para identificação dos gêneros e espécies conhecidos para a área de estudo. The corticioid fungi form an artificial group characterized by resupinate to stipitate basidiomes, with a smooth, folded, tuberculate, with spines or teeth or rarely with true pores. Most species have non septate basidia (homobasidiomycetes), and only these are treated herein. A taxonomic study was carried out based on revisions of herbaria and study of specimens gathered from 2010 to 2012 in the three States from the Southern Region of Brazil, with the aim to increase the knowledge about these fungi in the area. Literature records were also compiled in order to get to know the current knowledge about the group. A total of 226 species belonging to 93 genera are recognized; 164 of them are known from Rio Grande do Sul, 71 for Paraná and 64 for Santa Catarina. Acanthocystidium brueggemannii is described as new genus and species; Athelia fibulata and Steccherinum subcrinale are new records from South America; 12 species are recorded for the first time from Brazil, 16 from the Southern Region, six from Paraná, six from Rio Grande do Sul, and four from Santa Catarina. Furthermore, 16 new combinations, a new name, nine lectotypifications and two epitypifications are proposed, and Epithele bambusina is accepted as a correct name for a valid species. Phylogenetic analyses of the nuclear markers ITS and LSU were conducted with specific goals: to evaluate the phylogenetic placement of A. brueggemannii, which is related to cyphelloid fungi within the Agaricales; and to verify the phylogenetic placement of Hydnum peroxydatum (type species of Hydnochaete), which leads to the synonymy of Hydnochaete under Hymenochaete. Descriptions and line drawings of microscopic structures are provided for those species poorly known from literature. In addition, keys for identification of genera and species known from the area are provided.

12 pages, 2 tables, 1 figure., [EN] Several morphological species of the genus Hydnum L. are known to occur in Europe, but little molecular evidence exists to confirm the exact number and delimitation of the species. The present study seeks to investigate the genus Hydnum through sequence analysis of the nuclear ribosomal ITS regions and through morphological studies. The DNA sequences phylogenetic analysis revealed high diversity among the ITS region sequences in H. repandum (two clades) and H. rufescens (six clades) while the specimens of H. albidum, H. umbilicatum and H. ellipsosporum formed one and clearly separated clade per morphological species. Phylogenetic distances among the recognised species and the obtained morphologically unsupported clades are comparable and support the idea of several new, yet undescribed species. The intraspecific variability in the sequence data among phylogenetic species is generally low. Detailed morphological analysis of putative informative morphological characteristics could not support any of the observed non-monophyletic DNA-sequences clades within H. repandum or H. rufescens, and the proper use of names is not yet clear. Similar intraspecific variation has also been observed in many other ectomycorrhizal genera and could be explained by intensive speciation within variable groups under the influence of various factors (niche effect, ectomycorrhizal partner selection)., [ES] En Europa, sobre la base de la morfología se han identificado distintas especies en el género Hydnum L.; sin embargo, no se tenían datos moleculares para confirmar el número exacto de táxones y las relaciones entre los mismos. Este trabajo se basa en los análisis filogenéticos de las secuencias ITS del nrDNA, que se comparan con los estudios morfológicos y los análisis estadísticos. Los análisis filogenéticos revelan una alta diversidad en las secuencias de las regions ITS en H. repandum (dos clados) y en H. rufescens (seis clados), mientras que las muestras de H. albidum, H. umbilicatum e H. ellipsosporum se agrupan en clados únicos, que coinciden con especies tradicionales basadas en caracteres morfológicos. Los análisis morfológicos y filogenéticos son similares y apoyan la idea de que en este género existen todavía un número de especies no descritas. En las posibles especies filogenéticas, la variabilidad intraespecífica de las secuencias es baja. Por otro lado, el resultado del detallado análisis morfológico no apoya ninguno de los clados de H. repandum o H. rufescens, por lo que todavía no queda claro el táxon al que designan estos nombres. Una variabilidad intraespecífica similar se ha observado en otros géneros de hongos ectomicorrícicos y podría explicarse por especiación intensiva bajo la influencia de diversos factores (efecto de nicho, selección del hospedante ectomicorrícico)., The study was supported through the research programme P4- 0107, young researchers’ scheme and project Z4-7578, financed by the Ministry of Education, Science and Sports of the Republic of Slovenia, the Bilateral Project Spain-Slovenia (2000SI003), the BIOD-IBERIA projects A9 and A64, and Ministerio de Educación y Ciencia (CGL2006-12732-C02-01/BOS).
