“…Tripospermum myrtii was isolated as a saprobiont from, i.e., oak leaves (Adhicari & Manandhar, 1990), Acer saccarinum (aer Mack, 2022), and dead branches (Seephueak et al, 2011). In the present study, it appeared together with another dark-filamentous species Stemphylium sarciniforme, whose structures were also found inside the Erysiphe palczewskii appendages.…”

The research aimed to study the extent of fungicolous fungi prevalence on the thallus of fungi parasitic to the plants of the urban environment and to assess the species diversity of these microorganisms, with particular attention paid to the phenomenon of hyperparasitism. The research material consisted of herbaceous plants, trees, and shrubs showing signs of infestation by fungi, planted as park plants, along communication arteries, for hedges or ornamental plants, collected in larger cities of north-eastern Poland. Macroscopic and microscopic analysis revealed the presence of 12 different species of fungicolous fungi. The greatest diversity was found on the parasite of Alcea rosea, i.e., Puccinia malvaceraum, on which four fungal species were recorded. Four species of hyperparasites were identified: Ampelomyces quisqualis on the thallus of 19 Erysiphales species,Cladosporium uredinicola on the thallus of 5 species of the Pucciniales order, Clonostachys epichloë on Epichloë typhina, and Sphaerellopsis filum on the thallus of 11 representatives of Pucciniales. The study was also the first to record the presence of superparasites: Ampelomyces quisqualis on four Erysiphales species and Sphaerellopsis filum on three Pucciniales species. It is difficult to determine the relationships established by the other identified fungicolous fungi due to the lack of literature data. Nevertheless, the study demonstrated the presence of, among others, Stemphylium sarciniforme structures inside Erysiphe palczewskii appendages and the absence of ascospores inside the fruiting bodies indicative of the invasive nature of this relationship. However, confirmation of these findings requires further detailed microscopic and molecular analyses.

Background and aims: The Funga of the Patagonian Nothofagus forests is being studied since the late 19th century, but despite many efforts is still far from being completely known. The aim of this paper is to present detailed descriptions and data on geographical distribution of some genera and species of mitosporic ascomycetes that constitute new records for Argentina and for the Neotropical Region. M&M: Bark and woody debris from native Nothofagaceae were collected and studied. Reproductive structures were hand-sectioned and examined following traditional mycological techniques. Results: Six species of mitosporic ascomycetes were identified: Avettaea salvadorae, Bactrodesmium atrum, Dwiroopa ramya, Gilmaniella multiporosa, Monodictys paradoxa and Pycnopeziza quisquiliaris. Full descriptions, comments on identification and data on distribution and habitat of each species are provided, along with photographs illustrating diagnostic features. Conclusions: Two genera, Dwiroopa and Pycnopeziza, and one species, M. paradoxa, are registered for the first time in the Neotropical Region, two other species are first recorded in South America (B. atrum and G. multiporosa). This constitutes the second record of A. salvadorae in the continent, thus expanding its area of distribution.

The draft genome sequence and main genomic features of Penicillium pancosmium MUM 23.27, isolated from Portuguese raw honey are reported. The genome size is 34.82 Mb, containing a 48.99% GC content, 11,394 genes, with 39 rRNAs and 147 tRNAs/tmRNAs. Twenty-six BGCs were predicted with four exhibiting significant similarities with YWA1, chaetoglobosin A/chaetoglobosin C, squalestatin S1, and nidulanin A. Moreover, the whole-genome sequencing and in silico genomic analysis, allowed to further understand some aspects of this species habitat, resistance, and evolutionary genomic events. Altogether, the results obtained also allow to dwell deeper on particular Penicillia biological characteristics and genomic traits, permitting them to thrive in these honey substrates. In addition, this resource represents the first genome for the species and one of the first for raw honeys filamentous fungi.
