... Likewise, soil fungal community composition is known to be sensitive to C:N ratios (Lauber et al., 2008) and organic inputs (Sauvadet et al., 2019). Fungal genera that increased in manure treatments included Mortierella and Taphrinia, which are also copiotrophic (Sauvadet et al., 2019), and Panaeolus and Preussia, which are commonly associated with manure (Doveri, 2010;Sarrocco, 2016;Wepking et al., 2017). ...

In agroecosystems, application of manure from livestock treated with antibiotics has the potential to spread antibiotic compounds, resistant bacteria, and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) to soil. Although environmental transmission of antibiotic resistance is a major human health concern, few studies have looked at long-term effects on soil microbial communities from applying manure from livestock administered antibiotics. We examined the impacts of three years of repeated manure additions from cattle under different antibiotic treatments on microbial community structure and ARG abundances. While manure additions altered both soil bacterial and fungal communities, manure from cattle administered antibiotics further altered soil bacterial communities, but not fungal, compared to manure from antibiotic-free cattle. Furthermore, addition of manure from antibiotic-free cattle resulted in increased abundances of several ARGs compared to soil with no manure inputs, but manure from cattle administered antibiotics did not change overall profiles of ARG abundances compared to manure from antibiotic-free cattle. Finally, although bacterial and fungal community structure and ARG abundances varied among years, manure treatment effects on each were persistent during the full three-year period. Taken together, our results suggest that manure and antibiotic impacts on soil microbial communities can persist for long periods of repeated manure application. Furthermore, soil management strategies for addressing the antibiotic resistance crisis should consider the broader context of manure management.
... Centuries-old and extensive livestock use could have conditioned the large percentage of saprophytic taxa present in all the habitats considered, especially in the grasslands where livestock use was even greater, as indicated by the presence of various coprophilic species, such as the genera Coprinus Pers., Coprinopsis P. Karst., or Panaeolus (Fr.) Quél. [51]. The evaluation of the conservation status within each of the physiognomically defined plots in the study area was based on three parameters. ...
... This representation did not show great variations with respect to the different units of vegetation studied, with slight percentage variations in the holm oak dehesas and the mixed holm oak and Pyrenean oak in the presence of symbiotic species or otherwise in the oak grove, except in the grasslands, with a notable presence of saprophytic species(Figure 3).

The use of bioindicators to assess the conservation status of various ecosystems is becoming increasingly common, although fungi have not been widely used for this purpose. The aim was to use the analysis of the macromycetes fruiting bodies in the area of a natural reserve and the degree of preservation of its different zones combined with the use of geographical information systems (GIS). For this purpose, quantitative and qualitative fungal samples were carried out in plots of the middle-west of the Iberian Peninsula previously delimited and characterised thanks to GIS during the springs and autumns of the 2009–2012 period. In addition, the lifestyles of the fungal species were analysed as well as the influence of the main meteorological parameters on fungal fruiting. A total of 10,125 fruiting bodies belonging to 148 species were counted on 20 plots with four vegetation units (holm oak dehesas, mixed holm oaks and Pyrenean oak dehesas with different abundance and grasslands). The distribution of the different species, their lifestyles and the number of fruiting bodies in the different plots of the reserve indicated that the eastern part was best conserved, showing that the combination of fungal diversity studies and the use of GIS could be useful in the management of areas with environmental relevance.
... De même que pour la plupart des coprins fimicoles, le substrat le plus fréquent est le fumier d'herbivores domestiques (vaches, chevaux). Pour l'anecdote, Doveri (2010), qui a systématiquement étudié les champignons coprophiles en Italie, cite une occurrence de C. bisporus sur crottes de lapin. Ce coprin lignicole assez grand évoque le commun Coprin noir d'encre (Faltentintling), Coprinopsis atramentaria (Bull.) ...

In these notes, thirteen agaricoid basidiomycete species are reported as new to Luxembourg, with some comments regarding their ecology, frequency, nomenclature or taxonomy. All of them live as saprotrophs. Among them, Galerina perplexa, G. discreta (on mosses), Tubaria minutalis (on bare soil), Coprinellus bisporus (on manure), Coprinopsis insignis and Panellus ringens (on wood). Furthermore, two tropical species of the genus Leucocoprinus were collected inside a building (L. lilacinogranulosus, L. cepistipes var. rorulentus). An ascomycete species of the genus Trichoglossum (provisionally named T. cf. octopartitum) is also mentioned. New stations of eight more or less common agaricoid basidiomycetes collected in the last decades are also reported, such as the winter species Meottomyces dissimulans. Some of them were simply listed in previous publications and/or not preserved as herbarium material (Lactarius obscuratus, Coprinopsis patouillardii and Lepista panaeolus for example). Finally, the Golden cup (Caloscypha fulgens) is mentioned too ; this remarkable ascomycete was rediscovered recently, more than hundred years after its first documented record.
... Jeamjitt et al. 2006, Mungai et al. 2011), a variety of macrofungi are known to harbour different herbivore dung (e.g. Manimohan et al. 2007, Doveri 2010). Herbivore dung also constitutes an excellent substrate for a variety of hallucinogenic mushrooms especially Psilocybe spp., which are known for psilocin and psilocybin (Beug 2011 ). ...

Six species of macrofungi in five genera were documented growing on elephant dung located in the Brahmagiri Wildlife Sanctuary of Western Ghats of Karnataka (Conocybe pubescens, Coprinus patouillardii, Panaeolus fimicola, Podosordaria elephanti, Psilocybe coprophila and P. fimetaria). Among these, Coprinus patouillardii, Panaeolus fimicola and Psilocybe fimetaria are the first record, while Conocybe pubescens is new record on elephant dung in the Western Ghats. Including the present study, so far a total of 31 species of macrofungi have been reported on elephant dung of the Western Ghats. Some of the elephant dung-inhabiting macrofungi were also found on other herbivore dung in the Western Ghats and elsewhere. Future inventories on macrofungi inhabiting on dung of domestic/tamed, conserved and wild elephants to fill our knowledge gap on their diversity and to open up scope to harness their bioactive potential.
... It was presumed not to be cosmopolitan but rather a mainly Northern European species (cf . Henrici 2002;Doveri 2010), recorded mostly from heavily manured soils or cattle, horse and sheep dung on heaths, moors, meadows, rough pastures and grazed dune areas (Orton 1969;Watling & Gregory 1987;Van der Bergh & Noordeloos 1996;Noordeloos 1998;Ludwig 2001). More recently, however, P. subfirmus has been collected in France (Bon & Courtecuisse 2003), Italy (Doveri 2004, 2010, 2011), Turkey (Afyon & Yağız 2004Sesli & Denchev 2008;as P. speciosus) and Russia (Marina 2006). ...

Psychedelic fungi have received considerable attention recently due to their promising treatment potential of several psychiatric disorders and medical conditions, both in clinical settings but also as a nutraceutical. Besides research, a growing number of companies are developing capacity to conduct research and clinical trials where these fungi and their products can be used, and to provide these fungi to the public market that are rapidly becoming legal across the world. Whereas Psilocybe species are better known as psychedelic fungi, species in Panaeolus are also reputed to contain the psychedelic compound psilocybin and used recreationally. For the novice, there is no contemporary scientific summary of all the species in this genus that are known to be psychedelic, compared to those that are not. The global distribution and species diversity of these brown to white, often inconspicuous mushrooms are also not summarised, nor is it known to what extent DNA sequence data that are needed for identification have been generated for all of the species in this genus. However, psychedelic Panaeolus species are used and moved across the world. This lack of data makes it difficult to regulate bioexploitation and apply law enforcement of these fungi and the compounds they contain, especially seen in the light of the rapid development of the related markets. The aim of this review is to summarise current scientific data and knowledge on the species biodiversity, geographical distribution, extent of sequence data for identification purposes, and the psychedelic potential of species, based on published results. The review revealed where species are mostly known from, while also indicating areas seriously lacking such biodiversity data. A significant degree of study across the world is still needed to confirm which of these species are truly psychedelic and exactly what compounds they can produce.

The family Psathyrellaceae was analysed using phylogenetic and morphological characters. A total of 18,133 sequences (ITS, 5.8S, LSU, ef-1α, β-tubulin), with 45 newly generated, were evaluated from a wide geographic sampling. Special attention was given to the alignment procedures and an iterative multigene guide tree was used to achieve the best possible phylogenetic hypotheses. A new generic system is proposed, which includes the known genera Coprinellus, Coprinopsis, Cystoagaricus, Homophron, Hormographiella, Kauffmania, Lacrymaria, Parasola, Psathyrella and Typhrasa. Six new, monophyletic genera are recognized, viz. Candolleomyces, Britzelmayria, Narcissea, Olotia, Punjabia and Tulosesus, and the corresponding new combinations are proposed. Galerella floriformis is shown to belong to the Psathyrellaceae and the new genus Hausknechtia is erected for it. Psathyrella is subdivided into 18 sections (sections Noli-tangere, Saponaceae, Stridvalliorum, Arenosae, Confusae, Sublatisporae, Sinefibularum are new), and sections Pennatae, Pygmaeae and Pseudostropharia are emended. Coprinellus is divided into nine sections (Disseminati, Aureogranulati, Curti, Hepthemeri and Deminuti are new), and 20 sections are proposed for Coprinopsis (Cinereae, Filamentiferae, Melanthinae, Alopeciae, Xenobiae, Phlyctidosporae, Krieglsteinerorum, Erythrocephalae, Geesteranorum, Mitraesporae, Radiatae, Subniveae and Canocipes are new). And lastly, Parasola is divided into sections Parasola and Conopileae. Many problematic species groups still need revision. A key to the genera based on morphological characters is included.

The paper gives a new contribution to the knowledge of macrofungi from Romania. Pluteus aurantiorugosus (Trog) Sacc. is considered a rare macrofungus throughout Europe and this is the first report of this species in Romania. Coprinus patouillardii Quél. is a coprinoid species which is rarely mentioned, probably due to its small size, being usually overlooked. The species was uncovered and identified during a larger research regarding the diversity and distribution of macrofungi in the areas near Bucharest, Romania.
