“…(2006), by means of molecular studies, showed the close relationship between the earthstars and the members of a "gomphoid-phalloid clade" and proposed the order Geastrales Hosaka & Castellano. In the last 12 years, this genus has been widely studied in the northeastern Brazil (Baseia & Milanez, 2002;Baseia & Calonge, 2006;Fazolino & al., 2008;Silva & al., 2013;Cabral & al., 2014aCabral & al., , 2014bSousa & al., 2014a, c, d), although there is a lack of information about it for the southeastern regions, specially for Minas Gerais.…”

The goal of this study was to increase the knowledge of gasteroid fungi in Atlantic Forest biome, which is considered one of the most important hot-spots of the world. Field expeditions were carried out in the Reserva Biologica Municipal de Santa Rita Mitzi Brandao area, in the southeastern part of Minas Gerais. 39 samples belonging to 11 species of earthstars and puffballs are new record for Minas Gerais, Geastrum javanicum Lév., Bovista cunninghamii Kreisel, and Lycoperdon lambinonii Demoulin are first records for Brazil. Information about the locality, morphological characters, illustrations of the basidiomata, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) of the basidiospores, as well as its distribution in Brazil, are given for all species.

“…So far, only around 1000 species of macrofungi have been described for the Amazon forests [3]. For gasteroid fungi, 20 species have been described distributed in the states of Amazônia, Pará and Rondônia [15,16,17,18,19,20,21]. …”

Discovery or Extinction of New Scleroderma Species in Amazonia?

et al. 2016

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The Amazon Forest is a hotspot of biodiversity harboring an unknown number of undescribed taxa. Inventory studies are urgent, mainly in the areas most endangered by human activities such as extensive dam construction, where species could be in risk of extinction before being described and named. In 2015, intensive studies performed in a few locations in the Brazilian Amazon rainforest revealed three new species of the genus Scleroderma: S. anomalosporum, S. camassuense and S. duckei. The two first species were located in one of the many areas flooded by construction of hydroelectric dams throughout the Amazon; and the third in the Reserva Florestal Adolpho Ducke, a protected reverse by the INPA. The species were identified through morphology and molecular analyses of barcoding sequences (Internal Transcribed Spacer nrDNA). Scleroderma anomalosporum is characterized mainly by the smooth spores under LM in mature basidiomata (under SEM with small, unevenly distributed granules, a characteristic not observed in other species of the genus), the large size of the basidiomata, up to 120 mm diameter, and the stelliform dehiscence; S. camassuense mainly by the irregular to stellate dehiscence, the subreticulated spores and the bright sulfur-yellow colour, and Scleroderma duckei mainly by the verrucose exoperidium, stelliform dehiscence, and verrucose spores. Description, illustration and affinities with other species of the genus are provided.

Fischer (1886: 30), cited by Möller (1895) and Rick (1961), followed by M. borneensis Cesati (1879: 13), M rugulosus Rick (1929: 300) (Rick, 1961), M. argentinus Spegazzini (1887: 62) (Meijer 2006, Magnago et al 2013, M. caninus (Baseia et al 2006, Trierveiler-Pereira et al 2011, Magnago et al 2013, M. elegans (Mont.) E. Fischer (1888: 13) (Cortez et al 2008), and M. fleischeri Penzig 1899: 137) (Cabral et al 2014). Of those, according to Möller (1895) and Liu (1984), M. argentinus is considered synonymous with M. bambusinus, while Dring & Rose (1977) argue that the true M. bambusinus has a longer, often more strongly colored fertile portion, with a much more marked sterile tip than M. argentinus.…”

Mutinus albotruncatus (Phallales, Agaricomycetes), a new phalloid from the Brazilian semiarid, and a key to the world species

A new species of the genus Mutinus has been found in the semiarid region of Northeastern Brazil. Mutinus albotruncatus is described macro- and microscopically, and is characterized by the white pseudostipe and truncated apex. Molecular and ecological data are also provided. Phylogenetic analyses, based on LSU (large subunit of nuclear ribosomal DNA) and atp6 (subunit 6 of ATP synthase) sequences, support the inclusion of this new species in the genus Mutinus. A provisional key to the species of Mutinus known in the world is proposed.
