A new Peziza record for Turkish Mycobiota
Abstract
In the current study, Peziza ammophila Durieu & Lév was reported for the first time from Turkey. A short
description, ecology, distribution and photographs related to macro and micromorphologies of the taxon are provided.
... Studies on the determination of mycobiota of Turkey [9,10] will be pioneer in the protection of biodiversity. The aim of this study is to contribute to Turkish fungal biodiversity by adding molecularly proved a new fungal record. ...
In this study, Rhizopogon pumilionum (Ade) Bataille is recorded from Turkey for the first time. The new record is described and illustrated. New record was proved by utilizing from its rDNA ITS data. Also, phylogenetic position of R. pumilionum was detected in the phylogenetic tree constructed using the sequences of rDNA ITS.
... About 450 studies have so far been presented on the macrofungal diversity of Turkey and almost 2070 taxa of macromycetes have been compiled (Solak et al., 2007;Kırış et al., 2012;Akata and Kaya, 2012a;Akata and Kaya, 2012b;Sesli and Denchev, 2013;Sesli and Helfer, 2013;Akata and Yaprak, 2013;. These studies are not evenly distributed to the whole regions of Turkey and there are many unstudied or well studied provinces and districts as well. ...
The present study was based on the macrofungi specimens collected from Sarız district (Kayseri-Turkey) between 2011-2012. As a result of field and laboratory studies, 54 taxa belonging to two classes, 22 families and 45 genera in Ascomycota and Basidiomycota were identified. All of the taxa are new records for the district.
... Inocybe is common in Turkey and about 70 species were recorded up to date. Recently, many macrofungal studies have been carried out in the region (Akata and Yaprak, 2013) and in Turkey (Atila and Kaya, 2013). Before the present study, we recorded I. duriuscula Rea, I. erubescens A. Blytt, I. geophylla var. ...
The basidiomes of Inocybe phaeodisca Kühner var. phaeodisca were collected and studied first time from Turkey. The structure of pileipellis, cystidia, basidia and spores were illustrated and the description of the taxon is given according to morphological studies.
... Most taxa are separated from each other mainly on the basis of their microstructural and biochemical characters such as spore shape, color, ornamentation, and guttulation; amyloid reaction of the ascus; pigmentation of the paraphyses and excipulum structure (Barseghyan and Wasser, 2011). According to the present checklists (Solak et al., 2007;Sesli and Denchev, 2013) and the recent data on Turkish macromycota there are twenty five species of the genus Peziza found in Turkey (Akata and Yaprak, 2013). With P. lobulata the number of the members of genus reached twenty six species in Turkey. ...
In this study, Geoglossum umbratile Sacc. and Peziza lobulata (Velen.) Svrček were reported for the first time
in Turkey. Their descriptions, morphological characteristics, and photographs are presented.
... In recent years, studies on macro and microfungi are raised in Turkey. By these kind of studies Turkey's fungal diversity will be presented (Doğan and Aktaş, 2010;Akata and Yaprak, 2013;Güngör et al., 2013). The aim of the present study is to contribute Turkish mycota with new macrofungal records. ...
... In the literature (Uzun et al., 2010;Akata et al., 2012;Akata and Kaya, 2012a, 2012bKaya et al., 2012;Akata and Yaprak, 2013;Güngör et al., 2013), 171 discomycetes taxa have so far been reported from Turkey. ...
In this study, Mollisia ventosa P.Karst., Hymenoscyphus herbarum (Pers.) Dennis, H. immutabilis (Fuckel) Dennis, H. robustior
(P.Karst.) Dennis, Ciboria amentacea (Balb.) Fuckel, and Peziza fimeti (Fuckel) E.C.Hansen have been recorded in Turkey for the first time. Comments on their morphological and anatomical features, geographical position, locality, collection date, and distribution and short descriptions and photographs related to macro- and micromorphologies of the taxa are provided.
... According to the recent studies this genus is represented with 16 species (27 taxa) in Turkey, of which 4 are endemic (Davis, 1975;Arabacı, 2012). In the last decade, studies about the fungi have greatly increased in Turkey (Akata, 2012;Akata and Yaprak, 2013). Further research is required, as this studies are far less than the total number of potential host plants in Turkey. ...

morphological photograph. In addition the current list of the genus Peziza in Turkey was presented.
Spatial and temporal inventory yielded 64 species of macrofungi belonging to 34 genera in five coastal sand dunes (CSDs) of southwest India. Marasmius was the major genus (7 spp.) followed by Agaricus (5 spp.), Lentinus (4 spp.) and Lepiota (4 spp.). Thirty six species were confined to any one of the CSDs, while only Termitomyces striatus distributed in all dunes. Correlation between biotic (species richness, sporocarp richness and diversity) and nine abiotic (air, 2 factors; soil, 7 factors) factors revealed positive correlation of total species (r = 0.396, p = 0.05) and total exclusive species (r = 0.407, p = 0.043) against humidity. Sandy soil was preferred substrate of macrofungi (34 spp.) followed by woody substrate (22 spp.). Some preferred twigs, grass and herbivore dung, while others grew on dual substrates (soil/leaf litter; soil/wood; leaf litter/twig). Twenty two species of macrofungi are economically valuable as edible, medicinal and ectomycorrhizal. Amanita sp., Termitomyces schimperi and T. striatus are delicacy for coastal dwellers. Major hindrances for perpetuation of macrofungi in CSDs include sand extraction, wood extraction and clearing vegetation and debris by fire. Preservation of virgin dunes and rehabilitation of degraded dunes will provide ample scope to follow assemblage, divesity and ecological services of macrofungi in coastal habitats.

Although coastal sand dunes (CSDs) and mangroves are important biogeographic ecological zones in India, they are threatened due to human interference (encroachment, urbanization, sand mining and fishery activities). This chapter projects occurrence of macrofungi in CSDs and mangroves based on surveys in Dakshina Kannada (Karnataka State) during monsoon season (June–October). A brief description of fourteen macrofungi based on field and laboratory observations along with their extent of occurrence, substrate preference and commercial value is given. Some macrofungi occurring on the CSDs and mangroves are edible and dependent on sandy/silty soils, leaf litter, woody litter and herbivore dung (e.g. Coprinus plicatilis, Lycoperdon decipiens and Termitomyces schimperi). Some are ectomycorrhizal in CSDs or in mangroves (Collybia fusipes, Inocybe petchii and Lycoperdon decipiens). This study as well as earlier observations revealed occurrence of several edible, medicinal and mycorrhizal macrofungi in CSDs and mangroves. Currently, CSDs and mangroves are highly neglected and it is necessary to safeguard, promote and utilize macrofungal resources as social and cultural heritage of coastal dwellers.

Strobilomyces strobilaceus (Scop.) Berk. belonging to the family Boletaceae Chevall. was reported from
Zigana Mountain (Gümüşhane). It is the first member of the genus Strobilomyces Berk. to be registered from Turkey. A short diagnosis, ecology, distribution and photographs related to macro and micromorphologies of the species are
provided.
This paper documents the distribution and diversity of macrofungi in coastal sand dunes
characterized by less, moderate and severe disturbance regimes of the south-western India.
Diversity was higher in moderately disturbed dunes compared to less or severely disturbed dunes.
Among the 38 macrofungi recovered, ten, six, two and one species were edible, ectomycorrhizal,
medicinal and considered to be of decorative value, respectively. Ten macrofungi were dominant
(≥5 fruit bodies/625 m2
) on the coastal sand dunes. These were Amanita sp., Collybia dryophila
var. extuberans, C. fusipes, Coprinus plicatilis, Dacryopinax spathularia, Lactarius sp., Lentinus
squarrosulus, Marasmius kisangensis, Marasmius sp. 2 and Scleroderma citrinum). The coastal
sand dunes are under severe anthropogenic pressure, especially urbanization, sand extraction,
agricultural activities and seawall construction. The revegetated dunes are mainly represented by
exotic tree species (e.g., Acacia and Casuarina), which are often harvested. Due to the removal of
native vegetation and the ‘grow and harvest’ policy associated with exotic trees, the native flora,
fauna and macrofungi of the coastal sand dunes are severely threatened. The results obtained in the
present pilot study point out the need for long-term temporal and spatial investigation of the
macrofungal resource of coastal sand dunes to gain a more comprehensive knowledge on their
abundance, diversity, ecological significance, benefits and what must be done to implement
strategies necessary for conservation.
