“…Compression fossils of Paleocene conifers of the Cupressaceae and Pinaceae from Russia (˜60 Ma) show various types of damage, most of which were caused by Ascomycota (Maslova et al ., 2021). Fungal remains obtained through cuticle preparations of the damaged areas include hyphae, chains of conidia, various types of fruiting bodies, and dispersed spores.…”

Parasitic fungi occur in virtually every ecosystem, where they can significantly affect the functions of other organisms. Fungal parasites were probably also widespread in the geologic past. However, evidence of fossil fungi and their ecological roles is relatively rare. Here we demonstrate a spectrum of (putative) parasitic relationships in ancient continental ecosystems, using fossil examples of Chytridiomycota, zygomycetous fungi, Basidiomycota, and Ascomycota, along with several fungal fossils whose affinities remain unknown, from different periods of the Phanerozoic. Although many of the hosts no longer exist, the fungi involved mostly appear morphologically very similar to extant forms.

Morphologically similar damage of carpels of two Friisicarpus species (Platanaceae), F. kubaensis (Western Siberia, Albian–Cenomanian) and F. sarbaensis (Western Kazakhstan, Cenomanian–Turonian) induced by micromycetes have been described for the first time. Fruiting bodies of the micromycetes are developed within the tissues, forming tubercles on the carpel surfaces. Morphology of the fruiting bodies, their distribution on the substrate, as well as dropping out of the substrate after maturation bring them together with some modern representatives of Pleosporales. A possible role of insects in the transferring of fungal spores and participation of arthropods in the pollination of early Platanaceae are discussed.
