... Aleurodiscus cerussatus var. minor Pilát (= Acanthophysellum minor (Pilát) Sheng H. Wu, Boidin & C.Y. Chien (2000: 160)) has more or less similar-sized spores to A. persicus, but it has thinner, cream to ochraceous basidiocarps, and distinctly moniliform gloeocystidia (Ghobad-Nejhad et al. 2008). ...
Aleurodiscus persicus sp. nov. is described from Iran, based on phylogenetic analyses of ITS and LSU regions as well as on
its morphology. The species is characterized by resupinate, whitish to grayish cream, crustose basidiocarps, a monomitic
hyphal system with clamped hyphae, presence of acanthophyses, cylindrical to clavate to submoniliform gloeocystidia, and
ellipsoid, amyloid basidiospores measuring ca. 8.3–10 × (4.7–) 5–5.8 μm. The new combination Aleurodiscus graminicola
(basionym Gloeomyces graminicola) is proposed.

... The specific objective was quantifying differences in macrofungi diversity by dead wood position (downed logs, leaning snags, or standing snags), piece size, and decay class. The results of this research will supplement existing studies that have identified the biodiversity of macrofungi species within the Caspian beech forests (Hallenberg, 1977;Niemala & Uotila, 1977;Gharizadeh et al., 2007;Ghobad-Nejhad et al., 2008), by focusing upon on the specific substrate structural preferences for macrofungi growing on dead wood. Dead wood fungi in Caspian natural beech forests dead wood: (a) the logs as downed dead bole, (b) snags as standing dead tree, and (c) stumps as standing dead tree up to 2 m were recorded. ...
Aim of study: This study aimed to examine the dead wood inhabiting macrofungi communities occurring on dead beech and hornbeam trees in Caspian forests.
Area of study: The Kheiroud forest in the north of Iran.
Material and Methods: Data from 205 sampling dead tree were analyzed by means of Generalized Linear Models (GLM) to test the effects of decay stage, DBH, Length or Height on macrofungi diversity. Additionally, tree species, dead wood size, log position, decay stage were used as predictor factors for the number of sporocarps species (NSS) as a fungal species richness and diversity in each dead log using analysis of variance
Main results: The number of sporocarps species (NSS) varied in different dead wood size and decay classes. The different stages of decay and the different size classes of dead wood had significantly different species richness of macrofungi. Deadwood in the high-decayed stages contained the highest diversity of fungi. Most of fungi identified on both logs and snags belonged to Basidiomycetes and Ascomycetes. The highest value for richness and evenness indices calculated in large diameter dead wood in decay class III. The results indicated the size and decay class of dead wood describe the greatest variance of the model that means the highest number of sporocarps species inhabited on the large dead wood in advanced stage of decaying.
Research highlights: Macrofungi diversity varied significantly across pieces of dead wood with downed logs, larger pieces, and wood in later stages of decay having the highest macrofungi diversity.

Although West Asia potentially represents one of the diversity hotspots for several groups of fungi, our knowledge of the funga
in this region is fragmentary. Here, we provide a list of macrofungal species from Iran and performed a comparative analysis of
macrofungal diversity in 12 regions worldwide. The list was compiled from relevant national/international conference letters,
GenBank submissions, and published literature in Persian, English, and other languages. In total, 1333 species of macrofungal
Asco- and Basidiomycota are listed which were reported from 31 provinces of Iran. We have classified the reported fungi into
12 predefined morphogroups, with most of them being agaricoid species (60%). The Hyrcanian forests that stretch along the
Caspian Sea coast in northern Iran are the most species-rich region. Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF) was used
to check the number of worldwide occurrences of the reported species which revealed a total of 17 species were exclusively
reported from Iran. We suggest that globally rare or low-occurrence species from Iran require global attention and potentially
can contribute to the IUCN list of endangered species. Based on comparisons between the macrofungi of Iran and that of
various countries, the Iranian species composition is found to be similar to those of the Mediterranean regions.
Data on aphyllophoroid fungi in Teide National Park Tenerife are summarized, and 102 species are recorded. Twenty eight species are new to Tenerife, out of which 17 are also new records for the Canary Islands (Athelia pyriformis, Cartilosoma ramentaceum, Ceriporia excelsa, Dendrocorticium lilacinoroseum, Hyphoderma sibiricum, Hyphodermella rosae, Hyphodontiella multiseptata, Melzericium bourdotii, Phanerochaete avellanea, Phanerochaete cremeo-ochracea, Phlebia griseoflavescens, Phlebia lacteola, Phlebia lilascens, Phlebia tuberculata, Sistotrema pistilliferum, Skeletocutis amorpha, and Tubulicrinis angustus). The list is supplemented with 7 species of Peniophora recorded for this area, published previously (Díaz Armas et al., 2019).
Mycobiota of the two highest mountain areas of the Canary Islands (Teide National Park in Tenerife and Taburiente National Park in La Palma) are compared regarding their richness of genera, species, abundance and substrates. Aphyllophoroid fungi were found on 16 endemic vascular species, the majority were on Spartocytisus supranubius, which is dominant in both abundance and distribution in the study area.

The Inonotus linteus complex has been subject to thorough phylogenetic studies in the past few years, with several new species described in the complex. Species in this complex have been recently assigned to two new genera, Sanghuangporus and Tropicoporus. During field works made in Northwest Iran, a number of specimens belonging to the Inonotus (Phellinus) linteus complex were collected on Lonicera, and provisionally referred to as Phellinus cf. baumii. With fine data newly gathered on the delimitation of taxa in the Inonotus linteus complex, a re-examination of morphological characters of Iranian collections was made and analysis of ITS sequences was performed. The results show that the Iranian collections represent a new species. Sanghuangporus ligneus sp. nov. is closely related to S. lonicericola and is distinguished from it by its much larger pores, ungulate to triquetrous basidiomes, and its distribution.
