Hosts of brood parasitic cuckoos often employ mobbing attacks to defend their nests and, when mobbing is costly, hosts are predicted to adjust their mobbing to match parasitism risk. While evidence exists for fine-tuned plasticity, it remains unclear why mobbing does not track larger seasonal changes in parasitism risk. Here we test a possible expl...

In social vespine wasps, the nest characteristics and associates vary intra- and interspecifically. I studied the nest characteristics and nest associates of three Dolichovespula wasp species in boreal Finland. The average number of combs and cells per nest was similar among D. media , D. saxonica and D. norwegica , and similar to Dolichovespula in...

... McNabb 1969). After the cultural studies of H. aurantiacus by Tubaki (1976) and the description of the asexual morph of T. mesenterica by Pipolla and Kotiranta (2008), it was clear that this putative connection was incorrect. rDNA phylogenies by Mack et al. (2021) suggest that H. aurantiacus is a member of the same clade as Tulasnella violea, but is unlikely to be conspecific with it. ...

With the change to one scientific name for fungal taxa, generic names typified by species with sexual or asexual morph types are being evaluated to determine which names represent the same genus and thus compete for use. In this paper generic names of the Agaricomycotina ( Basidiomycota ) were evaluated to determine synonymy based on their type. Forty-seven sets of sexually and asexually typified names were determined to be congeneric and recommendations are made for which generic name to use. In most cases the principle of priority is followed. However, 16 generic names are recommended for use that do not have priority and thus need to be protected: Aleurocystis over Matula; Armillaria over Acurtis and Rhizomorpha; Asterophora over Ugola; Botryobasidium over Acladium , Allescheriella, Alysidium, Haplotrichum , Physospora, and Sporocephalium; Coprinellus over Ozonium; Coprinopsis over Rhacophyllus; Dendrocollybia over Sclerostilbum and Tilachlidiopsis; Diacanthodes over Bornetina; Echinoporia over Echinodia; Neolentinus over Digitellus; Postia over Ptychogaster; Riopa over Sporotrichum; Scytinostroma over Artocreas, Michenera , and Stereofomes; Tulasnella over Hormomyces; Typhula over Sclerotium; and Wolfiporia over Gemmularia and Pachyma. Nine species names are proposed for protection: Botryobasidium aureum, B. conspersum , B. croceum , B. simile, Pellicularia lembosporum (syn. B. lembosporum ), Phanerochaete chrysosporium , Polyporus metamorphosus (syn. Riopa metamorphosa ), Polyporus mylittae (syn. Laccocephalum mylittae ), and Polyporus ptychogaster (syn . Postia ptychogaster ). Two families are proposed for protection: Psathyrellaceae and Typhulaceae . Three new species names and 30 new combinations are established, and one lectotype is designated.
... McNabb (1969) suggested that this connection was "currently accepted in Europe." Later, however, Pippola & Kotiranta (2008) described the asexual morph of Tr. mesenterica as producing chains of ellipsoidal conidia (1.8−)2.2-4.5(−5.9) × (1.6−)1.8-3.8(−4.2) μm, originating from clamped conidiogenous cells, which matches the dimensions given by Bresadola (1932). ...

The taxonomy of the genus Hormomyces, typified by Hormomyces aurantiacus, which based on circumstantial evidence was long assumed to be the hyphomycetous asexual morph of Tremella mesenterica (Tremellales, Tremellomycetes) or occasionally Dacrymyces (Dacrymycetales, Dacrymycetes), is revised. Phylogenies based on the three nuc rDNA markers [internal transcribed spacers (ITS), 28S large ribosomal subunit nrDNA (28S) and 18S small ribosomal subunit nrDNA (18S)], based on cultures from Canada and the United States, suggest that the genus is synonymous with Tulasnella (Cantharellales, Agaricomycetes) rather than Tremella or Dacrymyces. Morphological studies of 38 fungarium specimens of Hormomyces, including the type specimens of H. callorioides, H. fragiformis, H. paridiphilus and H. peniophorae and examination of the protologues of H. abieticola, H. aurantiacus and H. pezizoideus suggest that H. callorioides and H. fragiformis are conspecific with H. aurantiacus while the remaining species are unlikely to be related to Tulasnella. The conidial chains produced by H. aurantiacus are similar to monilioid cells of asexual morphs of Tulasnella species formerly referred to the genus Epulorhiza. The new combination Tulasnella aurantiaca is proposed and the species is redescribed, illustrated and compared with similar fungi. The ecological niche of T. aurantiaca and its possible relationship to orchid root endophytes is discussed. A key to asexual genera with similar conidium ontogeny to T. aurantiaca is provided.

Among the hyperparasites, Colacogloea can parasitize the hymenium of Dacryomyces, Hyphoderma and Tubulicrinis Donk. basidiomes (Wojewoda, 1998;Piątek, 2001), and Phaeotremella foliacea parasitizes crust fungi of the genus Stereum (Pippola and Kotiranta, 2008). Many Tremella species are hymenial parasites on wood-rotting fungi, particularly on those occurring on dead attached branches, producing spores within the fruit bodies of their hosts. ...

Abundance of fungi and richness of fungal communities were studied in coarse wood debris of Scots pine in stands that were unmanaged or managed (by sanitary cutting, commercial thinning and timber harvesting) in an 85-year-old Scots pine forest in western Poland, in June 2014. Samples consisted of 20 × 20 × 20 cm pieces of logs, fallen branches and stumps, in the 1st, 2nd and 3rd decay classes. Fungal communities were analysed using high throughput Illumina MiSeq sequencing of fungal rDNA internal transcribed spacer. From a total of 80 076 OTUs from 34 samples, 58 436 (72.98%) were of culturable fungi and 21 640 (27.02%) were of non-culturable fungi and other organisms. Fungi from Glomeromycota, Zygomycota, Ascomycota and Basidiomycota were detected. In the unmanaged stand the frequency of Glomeromycota was 0–0.2%, of Zygomycota 0.01–0.29%, of Ascomycota 30.47–79.08%, of Basidiomycota 1.56–16.45%, and of non-culturable fungi 7.28–65.51%. In the managed stand the frequency of Glomeromycota was 0–0.12%, of Zygomycota 0.04–1.48%, of Ascomycota 52.25–68.33%, of Basidiomycota 8.01–18.05%, and of non-culturable fungi 10.54–26.09%. Fungal communities in coarse dead wood were shown to be huge complexes which include many previously undifferentiated taxa that often occupy specific ecological niches. Samples were colonized by at least 260 taxa of fungi. Fungi were most abundant and fungal communities most species-rich in the managed stand and in the initial stages of wood decay. Known wood-decay species were most abundant in the less decayed wood. Management practice influenced density and diversity of fungal communities in decayed wood. Illumina technology proved to be more effective in detection of fungi than analysis based on fungal morphology in culture or Sanger DNA sequencing.
... The viewpoint was accepted by some researchers and some species similar to T. foliacea were described in Tremella Pers. (Donk 1966;Chen 1998;Pippola and Kotiranta 2008;Boekhout et al. 2011;Weiss et al. 2014). The genus Tremella was shown to be polyphyletic based on molecular data and these species similar to T. foliacea (the T. foliacea group) formed a single clade in the phylogenies (Boekhout et al. 2011). ...
