The Agaricales are the largest clade of mushroom-forming fungi, in Colombia, with 544 species of the approximately 16,000 species currently recognized worldwide in the phylum Basidiomycota. We document seven species of Agaricaceae for the first time from the Colombian Caribbean region. Two of these species are newly recorded from the country: Leuco...

This study investigates morphological and genetic diversity in Rhodocybe mellea, after a new record of this species in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest. Phylogenetic analysis of molecular data (nrITS and nrLSU) and pairwise genetic distances, provide support for the recognition of cryptic lineages within R. mellea co-occurring in the Neotropics. We propose Rhodocybe mellea var. depressa as morphologically characterized by its depressed pileus, conspicuous sclerobasidia, small flexuous-cylindrical pseudocystidia, and a smooth cutis pileipellis. In addition, we also determine the position of nrITS sequences of some sclerotium-forming fungi collected in the same area, and confirm the genus Rhodocybe as a producer of this survival structure. Our findings provide unique information on Rhodocybe in South America, and highlight the relevance of approaches that address fine-scale diversity for fungal taxonomy.

Later, Putzke and Cavalcanti (1997) reported E. cyaneum (Murrill) Hesler (= C. cyaneus Murrill) from southern Brazil, a species now referred to as E. gainsvillae Morgan-Jones (Morgan-Jones 1971; Coimbra 2014). ...
The genus Claudopus (Entolomataceae) is characterised by its crepidotoid or pleurotoid basidiomata, a highly reduced and lateral or almost absent stipe, flesh-brown, salmon or pinkish-brown spore-print, and basidiospores that are distinctly angular in all views. Currently, ca. 20 species of Claudopus have been described worldwide. Some samples collected in the Argentinean Atlantic Forest have shown a set of characters that does not match with any of the species of Claudopus described until date. The aim of this work is to describe and illustrate a species of Claudopus new to science. Claudopus niger is distinguished from other species of Claudopus by its dark, almost black pileus surface, pinkish brown to brownish gray, ventricose lamellae; heterodiametric basidiospores, 5–7 angled (in profile view) and 8.5–11.5 × 5.5–7.5 µm in size, and a hymenium lacking cystidia. Claudopus byssisedus, the most phenetically related species and with a wide distribution in temperate and cold regions, has a paler colour and slightly larger basidiospores.
... Specifically, to the best of our knowledge, the aforementioned (see "Results" section) seven species have not been listed in the available checklists of the Italian macrofungi [15,17,40,41,43]. Worldwide check-listing studies stated that Alboleptonia sericella has been recorded in South America (e.g., in Brazil [44] and Guyana [45]), in the USA (in California [46]), and in Europe (e.g., in Germany [47] and Poland [48]). Information available on the geographical distribution of Clitocybe herbarum found in Cyprus island (Mediterranean basin) is limited [49]. ...
Three different broadleaf Mediterranean forests, each characterized by the dominance of Castanea sativa, Quercus cerris, and Fagus sylvatica, respectively, were intensively surveyed over 3 consecutive years to record a list of macrofungi. A total of 5,065 sporomata and 300 species (seven Ascomycota and 293 Basidiomycota) belonging to 18 orders, 59 families, and 117 genera were recorded. The ecology, community composition, and geographic distribution of the identified species are discussed and new records for Italy are also provided.

Following a serie of papers inventorying the agaric mycota (Agaricales) of Central and
South Americas, this second publication is a literature-based checklist of the dark-spored family
Strophariaceae. In total, 288 taxa belonging to 18 genera are reported here, mainly for Argentina
(120 spp.) and Brazil (115 spp.), the most representative countries. This list is an effort to organize
the widespread knowledge of Strophariaceae species diversity and geographical distribution, but
does not reflect the real diversity of Strophariaceae from this region.
Se presenta una lista actualizada de la diversidad de macrohongos (excluyendo hongos liquenizados) del filum Basidiomycota para Colombia. La lista se construyó con base en publicaciones en línea y bases de datos tales como: El Sistema de Información sobre Biodiversidad de Colombia, Infraestructura Mundial de Información en Biodiversidad y las bases de datos de los herbarios de la Universidad de Antioquia y del New York Botanical Garden. En total se registran 24 ordenes, 95 familias, 416 generos y 1329 especies.
Entoloma (Agaricales, Basidiomycota) is a species-rich genus with approximately 2000 species known worldwide. In Cen-
tral America, however, information about the species of this genus is sparse, despite the generally high biodiversity in this
region. Recently, 124 specimens of Entoloma were collected in Panama, Chiriquí Province. In the present publication, the
morphology of 20 species represented by more than one specimen is described and depicted with photographs, line drawings,
and scanning electron micrographs. Molecular phylograms based on ITS or concatenated ITS and partial nc LSU rDNA
sequences are provided. The taxonomic status of these species is evaluated and 17 species of Entoloma are described as new
to science. Only one species could be assigned to an already known species, viz. Entoloma belouvense. Nolanea albertinae,
described from Brazil, appeared similar and is combined in E. belouvense on varietal level. The identifications of two fur-
ther species are uncertain. At least 30 other species, including potentially new species, cannot formally be described due to
insufficient material. A preliminary key to the species of the genus Entoloma in Panama is provided. The spatial shape of the
polyhedroid basidiospores of Entoloma spp. is discussed based on literature and the micrographs generated for the present
study. Our re-evaluations indicate that the type of polyhedroid basidiospore and the structure of its base are not reliable as
diagnostic characters for the delimitation of subgenera in Entoloma.
A new material collected and the holotype of Entoloma azureoviride were studied. The analysis of these specimens showed some discrepancies with the protologue which are discussed here. The diagnostic characters of this species are the following: fibrillose pileus, blue lamellae, cuboid spores, and abundant oleiferous hyphae in the lamellae trama. It was also observed a peculiar pseudoparenchymatous pileus trama consisting of inflated elements up to 25 µm in diam., that become more elongated towards the hymenium. A comparison of E. azureoviride with other species with blue tints in the subgenus Inocephalus and a discussion about its morphological peculiarity are provided.
