Specimens of Clavulinopsis (Clavariaceae, Agaricales) collected in China were studied using morphological and molecular methods. Six species—C. aspersa, C. bicolor, C. bispora, C. erubescens, C. incarnata, and C. tropicalis—are described as new to science, and C. trigonospora is a newly recorded species in China. Phylogenetic analysis was conducted based on a combined dataset of internal transcribed spacer and nuclear ribosomal RNA large subunit sequences. The phylogenetic reconstruction revealed that the six new species each formed an independent lineage, and the samples of C. trigonospora from China were nested with accessions of C. trigonospora collected from Italy. The morphology of the seven Chinese species is described in detail, and is illustrated with line drawings and photographs. A key to the known Clavulinopsis species in China is provided.
... Species of Clavulinopsis are solitary, gregarious or caespitose, often terrestrial, rarely lignicolous.

Clavulina J. Schröt. accommodates species usually with coralloid, occasionally simple, infundibuliform, effuse-coralloid, or resupinated basidiomata, typically with two curved sterigmata and hyaline, smooth, guttulated basidiospores. During surveys in the Brazilian Amazon and Northeast Atlantic Rain Forest, several specimens of Clavulina were collected, and, after morphological and DNA analyses based in ITS and nLSU, some of them could not be assigned to known taxa. Thus, six new species are proposed: Clavulina alba, sp. nov. has white basidiomata with cylindrical to flattened branches; C. crystal-lifera, sp. nov. and C. cystidiata, sp. nov. have crystals among the hyphae, but C. cystidiata has also cystidia; C. simplex, sp. nov. and C. studerae, sp. nov. have simple basidiomata, while C. terminalis, sp. nov. is characterized mainly by the presence of hyphal ends. In addition, the synonymization of C. paraincrustata to C. incrustata is proposed. Description, images and discussion of the new species and the synonymization are provided, as well as insights into the morphological characters, ecology and distribution of Clavulina species.

Bryophilous fungi have at least one stage of its life cycle linked to Bryophytes. There are few studies in relation to their taxonomy and ecology all around the world, including Brazil. The Agaricomycetes (Basidiomycota) have gained prominence worldwide and contained several species of economic interest. Based on a bibliographic review and discussion about identification methods and experimental models on this association a species list of bryophilous/Agaricomycetes found in Brazil was elaborated. In the works found among the techniques used to identify effective fungi/Bryophytes associations it can be cited: phylogenetics analysis, optical and electron microscopy, and cultivation experiments. In Brazil, four orders of Agaricomycetes (Basidiomycota), belonging to Agaricales, Boletales, Hymenochaetales, and Polyporales, with 33 species were found associated to Bryophytes in the literature. Information of the worldwide distribution of Brazilian muscicolous species and application of these groups were realized associating edibility, toxicity, and others. It was noted that in this country there is a scarcity of scientific knowledge of this subject, that needs to be better understood in terms of ecology and taxonomy.

Arthropods are important components of edaphic environments, being responsible for numerous processes related to the decomposition and cycling of matter. Studies on their diversity are important for understanding the ecosystem dynamics. This study aimed to evaluate the composition of the edaphic community of arthropods, mainly arachnids, in a Cerrado-Amazônia transition area at the Rio Ronuro Ecological Station, in Nova Ubiratã, Mato Grosso. Arthropods were sampled in October/November 2016 and in February/March 2017, using pitfall traps. Opiliones were collected manually. As a result 9,611 arthropods were obtained, distributed among Hexapoda, Arachnida, Diplopoda and Chilopoda and 21 taxonomic orders. Hymenoptera (4,984 ind.; 51.9%), Diptera (2,299 ind.; 23.9%), Collembola (660 ind.; 6.9%), Isoptera (581 ind.; 6%) and Coleoptera (435 ind.; 4.5%) predominated. Among the spiders (220 ind.; 2.3%) were identified 24 families and nine behavioral guilds. Zodariidae (60 ind.; 28%), Lycosidae (51 ind.; 22%) and Theridiidae (32 ind.; 14%) predominated. The Opiliones (15 ind.; 0.2%) were Cosmetidae (10 ind.; 66.6%), Stygnidae (3 ind.; 20%) and Manaosbiidae (2 ind.; 13.4%). The results indicate that Rio Ronuro ESEC presents considerable edaphic biodiversity, corroborating its importance as an area for the conservation of Southern Amazonia.

This study presents a preliminary inventory of butterflies (Lepidoptera: Papilionoidea) in the Rio Ronuro Ecological Station in Brazil. Butterflies were sampled in eight plots dis�tributed in three sites located between the Municipality of Nova Ubiratã and Paranatin�ga and Santiago do Norte. We sampled 30 species of butterflies, in four families, Nymph�alidae, Pieridae, Papilionidae e Riodinidae. The sampling period was short and lacking temporal repetitions, however considering the low numbers of traps installed (36) and sampling during the rainy season our results indicate a large potential diversity of butter�flies to be explored in the future in the station.

With a territory of 90,680,600 hectares, the state of Mato Grosso possesses a broad range of natural beauty and rich biodiversity and currently houses 46 state conservation units that encompass 3.2 million hectares. A significant part of this biodiversity, however, remains un�known due to limited knowledge generation and dissemination. Rio Ronuro Ecological Station is one of five existing state ecological stations in Mato Grossso. It stands out for being located in the central region of the state, specifically comprising the transition between the Cerrado and Amazonia biomes (area with Savanna/Seasonal Forest/Ombrophilous Forest), bestowing it with the potential to harbor rich biodiversity and thus unique relevance within State System of Conservation Units. In compliance with the objective for which Rio Ronuro Ecological Station was created – protection of existing ecosystems, development of scientific research and conservation ed�ucation – State Secretary of Environment of Mato Grosso (SEMA-MT), together with the technical cooperation of Amazon Region Protected Areas Program (ARPA) and researchers of Federal University of Mato Grosso (UFMT), and support from Biodiversity Research Pro�gram (PPBIO), contributed efforts to survey and catalog the station’s flora and fauna. Scientific research developed in the conservation unit has broadened knowledge of biodiver�sity, provided training for students and local community agents, encouraged bioprospecting studies of species with potential that occur in the region, and made this publication possi�ble, which brings together all the systematic studies carried out to date. The knowledge gathered in this work will contribute to the processes of environmental edu�cation and conservation of biodiversity, as well as provide academic information for society in general. This knowledge will support the decision-making process for public policies for Rio Ronuro Ecological Station, enable its valorization and acknowledge the ecological pro�cesses that maintain it.

... Clavaria pumanquensis possesses cream white to yellowish pink and bigger spores (5.5-8.5 × 3.5-5 μm), and the biggest distinguishing characteristic between C. pumanquensis and C. sinensis is that only two sterigmata occur per basidium in C. pumanquensis (Lazo 1972). Clavaria zollingeri is a cosmopolitan species with deep amethyst violet basidiomata, whereas C. diverticulata is only found in Brazil and it has light yellow to greenish yellow basidiomata (Furtado et al. 2016). Additionally, although both C. sinensis and C. griseolilacina (described above) have branched basidiomata, were collected in Hunan Province, China, and have no clamps at the base of basidia, C. sinensis have a more branched basidiomatas, wider basidiospores (5-6 × 3.5-4.5 μm), and shorter basidia (30-40 μm long). ...

Species of Clavaria (Clavariaceae, Agaricales) collected from China were studied using morphological and molecular methods. Two species, C. griseolilacina and C. sinensis were described as new species; both possess branched and pale purple-tinged fruit bodies. However, the former possess a few branched, while the latter is profusely branched. The phylogenetic analysis based on the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequences confirmed the distinctions between these two new species and their close relationships with C. rubicundula and C. fumosa in the genus. An evolutionary tendency in genus Clavaria was discussed. Additionally, morphological features of the two new species were described in detail and were illustrated with line drawings and photographs. Holotypes of the new species are deposited in the Mycological Herbarium of Hunan Normal University (MHHNU). The ITS sequences generated in this study were deposited in GenBank. A key is provided for the known Clavaria species in China.
