Phylloporia is morphologically characterized by resupinate, sessile to stipitate, annual to perennial basidiomata with a du-plex context, monomitic to dimitic hyphal system, simple septate generative hyphae, lack of setae and yellowish to brown, sub-globose, ellipsoid to cylindrical spores. The genus has worldwide distribution, with species parasit...

Many species of mushroom-forming fungi have been harvested in the wild and used for food and medicine for thousands of years. In Brazil, the knowledge of the diversity of wild edible mushrooms remains scattered and poorly studied. Based on new samples, bibliographic records revision, and searches through the GenBank, we recorded 409 species of wild...

Basidiomycota is one of the major phyla in the fungal tree of life. The outline of Basidiomycota provides essential taxonomic information for researchers and workers in mycology. In this study, we present a time-framed phylogenomic tree with 487 species of Basidiomycota from 127 families, 47 orders, 14 classes and four subphyla; we update the outli...

The Global Consortium for the Classification of Fungi and fungus-like taxa is an international initiative of more than 550 mycologists to develop an electronic structure for the classification of these organisms. The members of the Consortium originate from 55 countries/regions worldwide, from a wide range of disciplines, and include senior, mid-ca...

Favolus brasiliensis (Fr.) Fr., membro de Polyporales, é uma espécie comumente encontrada no Neotrópico e relatada como comestível, caracterizada por apresentar uma coloração branca quando fresca e laranja a castanho quando seca, um himenóforo com poros 3-5 cm, brancos e alongados radialmente (Sotome et al., 2013).

According to recent DNA-based phylogenetic studies, those genera have good support in Auriculariales, but many s...

Abstract Changes in climate, which can be understood as fluctuations in climate patterns as a reflection of natural or anthropic interventions, can generate changes in the environment and consequently affect the diversity of organisms. Fungi are extremely important in organic matter cycling in different environments, mainly forest areas, decomposin...

Fulvi fomes fabaceicola...

The class Dacrymycetes has two orders (Dacrymycetales and Unilacrymales), four families, and 13 genera, few of them with available molecular data and then usually of dubious delimitation. Dacrymyces Nees is a polyphyletic genus in Dacrymycetes and was introduced to accommodate one species, D. stillatus Nees, being characterized by a homogeneous com...

Dyes used in the textile industry contribute significantly to the increase of water pollution as they are disposed of, most of the time, without proper treatment. Indigo carmine is a synthetic dye widely used in the coloring of jeans and is considered difficult to remove, causing irreversible damage to the food chain in ecosystems. Mycomediation ap...

Ganodermataceae is one of the main families of macrofungi since species in the family are both ecologically and economically important.

Heterochaete subgelatinosa Bodman (Auriculariales, Basidiomycota) was first described from material collected in Panama and was hitherto exclusively known from the type locality. We recently re-collected specimens of this species in the Atlantic forest of North-eastern Brazil. Morphological and molecular data suggest that H. subgelatinosa is not cl...

Three new species of Trechispora from Brazil, T. copiosa, T. gelatinosa, and T. termitophila, are described and illustrated. The new species are microscopically similar to the known Trechispora species, but differ by having coralloid basidiomata and would traditionally have been placed in Scytinopogon. Phylogenetic analyses based on nuc rDNA ITS1-5...

There were errors in the name of author László G. Nagy and in affiliation no. 31 in the original publication. The original article has been corrected.

Collections from field expeditions to the Atlantic Forest and to Amazonia in Brazil and revision of herbarium material revealed the presence of Trechispora specimens that could not be assigned to any described species. Phylogenetic analysis based on nuc rDNA ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 (ITS) and nuc 28S rDNA (28S) regions confirmed that these specimens belong t...

Nomenclatural type definitions are one of the most important concepts in biological nomenclature. Being physical objects that can be re-studied by other researchers, types permanently link taxonomy (an artificial agreement to classify biological diversity) with nomenclature (an artificial agreement to name biological diversity). Two proposals to am...
