A new species of Typhula with sigmoid spores: Typhula suecica

Typhuloid fungi are a very poorly known group of tiny clavarioid homobasidiomycetes. The phylogenetic position and family classification of the genera targeted here, Ceratellopsis , Macrotyphula , Pterula sensu lato and Typhula , are controversial and based on unresolved phylogenies. Our six-gene phylogeny with an expanded taxon sampling shows that typhuloid fungi evolved at least twice in the Agaricales ( Pleurotineae , Clavariineae ) and once in the Hymenochaetales . Macrotyphula , Pterulicium and Typhula are nested within the Pleurotineae . The type of Typhula (1818) and Sclerotium (1790), T. phacorrhiza and S. complanatum (synonym T. phacorrhiza ), are encompassed in the Macrotyphula clade that is distantly related to a monophyletic group formed by species usually assigned to Typhula . Thus, the correct name for Macrotyphula (1972) and Typhula is Sclerotium and all Typhula species but those in the T. phacorrhiza group need to be transferred to Pistillaria (1821). To avoid undesirable nomenclatural changes, we suggest to conserve Typhula with T. incarnata as type. Clavariaceae is supported as a separate, early diverging lineage within Agaricales , with Hygrophoraceae as a successive sister taxon to the rest of the Agaricales . Ceratellopsis s. auct. is polyphyletic because C. acuminata nests in Clavariaceae and C. sagittiformis in the Hymenochaetales . Ceratellopsis is found to be an earlier name for Pterulicium , because the type, C. queletii , represents Pterulicium gracile (synonym Pterula gracilis ), deeply nested in the Pterulicium clade. To avoid re-combining a large number of names in Ceratellopsis we suggest to conserve it with C. acuminata as type. The new genus Bryopistillaria is created to include C. sagittiformis . The families Sarcomyxaceae and Phyllotopsidaceae , and the suborder Clavariineae , are described as new. Six new combinations are proposed and 15 names typified.

“…Typhula suecica is widely distributed, but rare [34], and grows in damp forests on the dead, fallen leaves of Acer, Alnus, and Populus. Olariaga et al [34] reported T. suecica in Southern France, Spain (Pyrenees), and central Sweden. Its Finnish localities (very close together) are in the southeastern corner of Finland on the shore of the Finnish Gulf in damp forests in which the fungus grew on the dead leaves of Alnus and Populus.…”

Aphyllophoroid funga (Basidiomycota) of Finland: range extensions and records of nationally new and rare species

et al. 2019

Knowledge of the Finnish aphyllophoroid funga has increased substantially in recent years. In this article, we present two species new to Finland: Spiculogloea subminuta Hauerslev and Typhula suecica I. Olariaga, G. Corriol, I. Salcedo & K. Hansen, and document Sistotrema luteoviride Kotir. & K.-H. Larss. for the third time globally. We also contribute 50 new records of 33 nationally rare species (with a maximum of ten previous records in Finland) and list 52 regionally new species, found for the first time in a certain subzone of the boreal vegetation zone in Finland. Each record is enclosed and contains notes on the substrate. Furthermore, the ecology of the nationally new species and the distribution of rare species are discussed.

Macrofungi samples were collected during routine field studies in 2019 within the borders of Hakkari and Şırnak provinces, Türkiye. Six Typhula species were collected for the first time from Türkiye: T . corallina, T. crassipes, T. incarnata, T. micans, T. phacorrhiza, and T. quisquiliaris. Detailed descriptions of the species are presented with morphological and microscopic illustrations and ecological information.
