Polypore funga and species diversity in tropical forest ecosystems of Africa,America and Asia,and a comparison with temperate and boreal regions of the Northern Hemisphere

Polypores play a cru cial role in energy recycling and forest regeneration in forest ecosystems.The majority of them are wood degraders;some are forest pathogens and others are ectomycorrhizal symbionts.The basidiocarps provide food and shelter for many organisms,mostly invertebrates,but also some vertebrates,as well as food and medicine for humans.Despite extensive research on the species diversity and phylogenetic relationships of polypores in recent years,there remains a lack of comprehensive understanding of their distribution patterns and species composition at the large scale.Checklists of polypores from the tropical zone,including tropical Africa,tropical America,and tropical Asia,were analyzed for species diversity,distribution patterns,major taxa,and nutritional modes.A total of 1,902 polypore species was found in the three regions,representing 8 orders,46families,and 250 genera of Agaricomycetes.The orders Polyporales(especially the family Polyporaceae)and Hymenochaetales(especially the family Hymenochaetaceae)had the most prolific taxa,with their species accounting for 93.4%of the total polypores listed.Each of 1,565(or 82.3%)of the total 1,902 species were found in only one of the three regions studied,and we treat them temporarily as"regional endemic species".Only 141species were shared among all three regions,accounting for a mere 7.4%.Tropical Africa and tropical America had the greatest number of shared species and the highest S?rensen similarity index(SC)value.Tropical forests had a higher species richness compared with temperate to boreal forests of the Northern Hemisphere,and in addition,also a higher proportion of white rot polypores compared to brown rot and ectomycorrhizal species.This study outlines the distribution patterns and species diversity of polypores in the world,shedding light on their ecological significance in diverse ecosystems.

Inocybe cavalcantiae,a new species from northern Brazil

Traditional knowledge and use of wild mushrooms in Simbhanjyang,Makwanpur district,Central Nepal

Mushrooms are an important source of food among different ethnic communities in Nepal and are widely collected during rainy season.This paper includes documentation of wild mushrooms in the vicinities of Simbhanjyang,Makwanpur district,central Nepal.Semi-structured open ended questionnaire and Rapid Rural Appraisal were followed to get information about edibility of wild mushrooms from local harvesters.Forty-three species of mushrooms were documented.The collected species are saprophytic,parasitic,and mycorrhizal.Ethnic communities identify edible and other useful mushroom species based on traditional knowledge transferred from their ancestors orally which was in practice and tested through generations.Edible Boletus edulis,Russula virescens and medicinal Ganoderma tsugae are some potential non-timber forest products from the study area.

Boletellus nordestinus(Boletaceae,Boletales),a new species from Northeastern Atlantic Forest,Brazil

Boletellus nordestinus is described as a new species from white sandy dunes in the Northeastern Brazilian Atlantic Forest.The area is known as a potential ectotrophic forest,since some ectomycorrhizal fungi had been found in the same area.The new species is characterized by dry,velutinous and olivaceus to chocolate brown pileus,context and hymenophore non-cyanescent when exposed or pressured,short and longitudinally ridged basidiospores,fusiform to ventricose cystidia,and a trichodermal pileipellis with disarticulated,acute terminal elements.A full description,line drawings,color photographs and molecular phylogenetic data of the new species are provided.

Cyathus striatus:a new record from Arunachal Pradesh and a checklist of Bird’s nest fungi in India

Twenty four species of Bird’s nest fungi belonging to four genera, namely Crucibulum, Cyathus, Nidula and Sphaerobolus have been reported from India with most of the reports were from Northeastern states in the Eastern Himalaya region that is well recognized for its rich biodiversity. Among these genera, Cyathus is the largest genus with 61 species documented so far in the world including 17 species from India. So far, only Cyathus poeppigii has been reported from the Eastern Himalayan state of Arunachal Pradesh. In the present paper, another newly recorded species Cyathus striatus, is reported with its detail taxonomic characteristics. It produces comparatively smaller basidiocarps than the earlier reported collection from Darjeeling (West Bengal). Further, the basidiospores are thin walled but comparatively larger in size. The paper also lists all Bird’s nest fungi from India with detailed information.
