The genus Favolaschia within the family Mycenaceae is characterised by the gelatinous basidiomata with poroid hymenophore and most species inhabit monocotyledonous plants. In this study, many samples covering a wide geographic range in China were examined morphologically and phylogenetically using concatenated ITS1-5.8S-ITS2-nLSU sequence data. Three new species clustering in Favolaschia sect. Anechinus, namely Favolaschia imbricata, F. miscanthi and F. sinarundinariae, are described. Favolaschia imbricata is characterised by imbricate basidiomata with pale grey to greyish colour when fresh and broadly ellipsoid basidiospores measuring 7–9 × 5–6.8 µm; F. miscanthi is characterised by satin white basidiomata when fresh, broadly ellipsoid basidiospores measuring 7.5–10 × 5.5–7 µm and inhabit rotten Miscanthus; F. sinarundinariae is characterised by greyish-white basidiomata when fresh, dark grey near the base upon drying, broadly ellipsoid to subglobose basidiospores measuring 7–9 × 5–7 µm and inhabit dead Sinarundinaria. The differences amongst the new species and their morphologically similar and phylogenetically related species are discussed. In addition, an updated key to 19 species of Favolaschia found in China is provided.
... Although they share a rather distant relationship in phylogeny. Favolaschia (Mycenaceae, Agaricales) is characterized by gelatinous basidiomata, poroid hymenophore, the presence of gloeocystidia, acanthocystida, and amyloid basidiospores (Singer 1974;Gillen et al. 2012). But the new Collybiopsis species can be readily distinguished from Favolaschia by its brittle basidiomata when dry, nearly poroid hymenophore formed by forked lamellae and lacks acanthocysts, gloeocystidia, and gloeovessels. ...
Collybiopsis bambusicola sp. nov. is described and illustrated from Yunnan Province, Southwestern China, based on morphology and molecular phylogenetic analyses. It is characterized by its minute, cream to cinnamon basidiomata, short, eccentric stipe, forked lamellae, nearly poroid hymenophore which are radially arranged from the base of the stipe, 2–spored basidia, oblong ellipsoid basidiospores (6–8.3 × 3–4.3 μm), and gregarious on dead bamboo. In ITS + nLSU based phylogeny, the new species formed a distinct lineage nested within Collybiopsis ramealis complex clade.
... The genus Favolaschia comprises 109 species based on existing data in the Species Fungorum (2022) database. Members of this genus are characterised by hymenial pores, a gelatinous trama and consisting of gloeocystidia and acanthocystida (Gillen et al. 2012). To date, F. manipularis (Corner 1954;Audrey et al. 2015) and F. peziziformis (Bodensteiner et al. 2004) have been reported to have bioluminescence. ...
Seven species of bioluminescent mushrooms belonging to seven genera have been described in the tropical rainforests of China. This study contributes the eighth species, found growing on decaying bamboo in Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden (XTBG). Morphological characteristics and phylogenetic analyses using internal transcribed spacer (ITS) and ribosomal large subunit (LSU) gene regions placed the species within the genus Favolaschia. Comprehensive morphological descriptions, micro and macro photographs, and a phylogenetic tree showing the placement of the new species are provided. This is the second report of bioluminescent Favolaschia in China.
... The genus Favolaschia comprises 109 species (Nimalrathna et al., 2022). Hymenial pores, a gelatinous trama, and the presence of gloeocystidia and acanthocystida are characteristics of this genus (Gillen et al., 2012). To date, F. manipularis (Audrey et al., 2015) and F. peziziformis (Bodensteiner et al., 2004) have been reported to have bioluminescence. ...
Mushrooms contain secondary metabolites in their fruit bodies, cultured mycelium, and cultured broth which are higher Basidiomycetes and Ascomycetes. Mushrooms have been used in many sides of human activity for many years. Bioluminescence mushrooms gained more attention. Researchers focused on the ecological role of bioluminescence mushrooms as attracting insects for spore dispersal, which may be beneficial for fungi growing on the forest floor where wind flow is low. In this review, we will focus on some famous bioluminescent mushrooms, their ecology, bioluminescence mechanisms and their ecological benefits.
... [1]. It is characterized by poroid hymenophore, a monomitic hyphal system, gelatinous hyphal structure, the presence of gloeocystidia and acanthocystida, and amyloid basidiospores [1][2][3][4][5]. Favolaschia produces basidiomes on dead plant material, but they may have a biotrophic phase as found in Mycena [6,7], since many are known to be host specific. ...
... More than 100 taxa have been recorded in Favolaschia, although it is suspected that these taxa represent only around 50 species [8][9][10]. The genus has a worldwide distribution (excluding Antarctica), with a high diversity in South America [5]. ...
Favolaschia calocera was originally described from Madagascar, and reported to have a worldwide distribution. In the current study, samples of the Favolaschia calocera from Central America, Australia, China, Kenya, Italy, New Zealand, and Thailand were analyzed by using both morphological and molecular methods. Phylogenetic analyses were based on the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) dataset, and the combined five-locus dataset of ITS, large subunit nuclear ribosomal RNA gene (nLSU), the small subunit mitochondrial rRNA gene (mt-SSU), the small subunit of nuclear ribosomal RNA gene (nu-SSU), and the translation elongation factor 1α (TEF1). Our study proves that Favolaschia calocera is a species complex, and six species are recognized in the complex including four new species. Three new species F. brevibasidiata, F. brevistipitata, and F. longistipitata from China; and one new species F. minutissima from Asia. In addition, Favolaschia claudopus (Singer) Q.Y. Zhang & C. Dai, earlier treated as a variety of Favolaschia calocera R. Heim, were raised to species rank. Illustrated descriptions of these five new taxa are given. An identification key and a comparison of the characteristics of species in the Favolaschia calocera complex are provided.
... There are generally 1-2 pores per mm but they are smaller and shallower near the margin. The stem is rudimentary, about 5mm long, with sparse short white hairs and laterally attached [29][30][31][32]. The pores are visible through the thin flesh. ...
Fungi exist everywhere around us. However, edible Mushrooms represent promising source for novel compounds with potential uses in different biotechnological fields. Many mushrooms were sources of novel compounds showing biological actions such as antimicrobial, anticancer, antiinflammatory activities. Likewise, mushrooms are macrofungi that exist everywhere around us. They have significant roles in human life as source of nutrition and bioactive compounds. Many mushrooms have been reported as promising biotechnological tools for production of secondary metabolites of various biological activities. Favolaschia sp.; Cyttaria sp. mushrooms are especially interesting due to the rareness of Basidiomycetes. In this review, the ecology, occurrence, of unique Favolaschia sp.; Cyttaria sp. mushrooms were described, and their biological activities.
... It can be distinguished from the latter by a central stipe and more pore numbers (8e12 pores per mm), whereas, the latter mostly has a lateral stipe (which might even be absent) and less pore numbers. The pileus of Favolaschia species is furthermore usually formed by a gelatinous trama lacking in other Mycenaceae (Gillen, Th, Kirschner, & Piepenbring, 2013). Microscopically, Favolaschia basidiomata may present gloeocystidia and inamyloid hyphae, while gloeocystidia were lacking in the Mycena basidiomata and hyphae were dextrinoid. ...
A small blue stipitate-pileate mushroom with porioid hymenophore was found on dead Calamus sp. (Arecaceae) in Taiwan. Microscopic characteristics indicated a placement within the Mycenaceae. ITS as well as partial LSU ribosomal RNA gene sequences analyses showed a close relationship with Mycena illuminans within the Mycenaceae. A new species with completely blue basidiomata, Mycena indigotica, is proposed based on morphological and molecular evidence.
