Several
species
of various
living
organisms
are
under
protection in Hungary, but
fungi,
although,
unfavourable anthropogenic influences do not avoid them either. Lists of protected
fungi
are
usually given by the Red Data Books published recently in
several
European countries. The main
goal of this
paper
is the presentation of a
list
of
endangered
macrofungi in Hungary. The
list
re-
flects our
present
knowledge
about
the
species
recquire urgent potection and
about
the
categories
into
which they
have
to be classified for the
sake
of their
successful
protection.
Key
words: macrofungi, protection, Red Data
List
INTRODUCTION
Increasing anthropogenic influences affect harmfully natural
ecosystems,
and a growing number of
species
becomes
endangered.
Thus, for
about
two de-
cades,
all over the
world
so-called Red Data Books and Red Data Lists
have
been
compiled,
which specify taxa
threatened
by extinction and outline the feasibilities
of
their protection.
Fungi
have
been
simply omitted by the
nature
conservation
measures
and
red
data
lists for a long time
(RAKONCZAY
1990). In Europe the supplementation
of
this insufficiency
began
in the eighties and macrofungi were
also
registered in
some
red lists
(WINTERHOFF
and KRIEGLSTEINER 1984, RASSI and
VÄISÄNEN
1987,
WÖLDECKE
1987,
SCHMID
1990,
BEDIKSEN
and
HOILAND
1992). In the
last
years
some
works were
also
published
about
the possibilities of the protec-
tion
of macrofungi in Hungary (BABOS 1989,
RlMÓCZl
1992a, 1992b,
SILLER
and VASAS 1993, 1995). In his article
RlMÓCZl
(1992Z?) examined the
present
situation in the country and set the most important duties to be
done.
The aim of
the
present
work is to complete the red
data
list
of macrofungi, which can be im-
mediately submitted to the officials who are authorized to
take
the
necessary
legislative
measures.
The proposed
list
was compiled by the contribution of
several
Hungarian
mycologists (Albert L.,
Babos
M., Bohus G., Bratek Z.,
Locsmándi
Cs.,
Rimóczi
I.,
Siller I. and
Vasas
G.), who determined the
endangered
categories
considering
the Hungarian conditions,
discussed
the possible
causes
of threatening as
well
as
the standardized
aspects
necessary
for the selection of
species
for protection. The
above-mentioned mycologists feel it
necessary
to carry out direct
research
for
conservation
purposes,
e.g. evaluation of
mycologically
less
investigated
areas
as
well
as distribution
studies
of
endangered
species.
The
list
published
hereafter
represents
the
first
stage
of an attempt to
rescue
of
endangered
macrofungi in Hungary. The
list
reflects our
present
knowledge
about the
species
should be protected most urgently and about the
categories
into
which
they can be classified to promote their successful protection.
Latin
names
of
macrofungi were taken
from
the works of DENNIS (1978), MOSER (1983) and
JÜLICH
(1984).

Species
endangered
by extinction, vulnerable and
rare
species.
These
three
categories
- generally
accepted
in the international literature -
were
fused
because
of the insufficiency of the
data
available. Almost extinct and very
rare
macrofungi
living
in extremely
endangered
biotopes
belong to the
first
group;
macrofungi
living
in seriously
endangered
biotopes
as
well
as declining and in
some
areas
already
extinct
species
fall
into the
second
group; at
present
still
not
rare,
however, in
some
areas
sporadic
macrofungi, and generally
those
living
in
endangered
biotopes
or having very special ecological
demands
belong to the
third
group.
These
three,
fused
groups
are
recommended
for protection. The

To
promote the protection of macrofungi in Hungary introduction of the
following
measures
is recommended:
-
endangered
macrofungi in the national parks,
nature
reserves,
as
well
as
landscape
protection
areas
should be in practice protected (gathering of the
mushrooms in
these
areas
must be prohibited
with
the exception of
salable
species).
-
macrofungi, recommended for protection, should not be permitted to sell.
-
care-demanding macrofungi should be
gathered
only moderately.

Exploring diversity within the genus Tulostoma (Basidiomycota, Agaricales) in the Pannonian sandy steppe: four fascinating novel species from Hungary
Article

  • Nov 2023
Steppe vegetation on sandy soil in Hungary has recently been revealed as one of the hot spots in Europe for the stalked puffballs (genus Tulostoma ). In the framework of the taxonomic revision of gasteroid fungi in Hungary, four Tulostoma species are described here as new to science: T. dunense , T. hungaricum , T. sacchariolens and T. shaihuludii . The study is based on detailed macro- and micromorphological investigations (including light and scanning electron microscopy), as well as a three-locus phylogeny of nrDNA ITS, nrDNA LSU and tef1-α sequences. The ITS and LSU sequences generated from the type specimen of T. cretaceum are provided and this resolved partly the taxonomy of the difficult species complex of T. aff. cretaceum.

According to our knowledge, hitherto Ph. cyanopus apart from temperate and boreal regions of North America (British Columbia, Colorado, Oregon, Washington, Québec, Michigan, New York) [2,3,9,15,23,[39][40][41][42] and East Asia (the Russian Sikhote-Alin Mountains, Yakutia) [43,44] has been also found in fifteen European countries. It is known from ca. 60 collections gathered from: Austria [1,27], Belgium [45], Denmark [1,27,36,39], Finland [1,15,27,36,38,46], France [1,40,47], Germany [1,7,15,16,18,21,22,27,39,40,[48][49][50][51], Hungary [27,52], Latvia [27,37], Norway [6,15,27,35,36,39,40,53,54], Poland (this study), Sweden [36,39,55], Switzerland [56][57][58], Ukraine [1,19,27], and the Netherlands [20,27,59,60] (Figure 4). The species has also been mentioned from Great Britain (England: Leicestershire, Wales: Pembrokeshire), but due to the lack of authentic material, these data are accepted only with caution [2,33,61,62]. ...
... Furthermore, it has been red-listed in several European countries, e.g. in the Netherlands [59], Denmark (http://www.dmu.dk/ en/animalsplants/red_data_book), Switzerland [58], Hungary [52], and Latvia [63]. Because of its rarity it seems to be justified to place Ph. cyanopus on the Polish red list as well, at least in "vulnerable" species category. ...
Pholiotina cyanopus, a rare fungus producing psychoactive tryptamines

  • Nov 2014
Pholiotina cyanopus was collected from wood chips and other woody remnants of undetermined tree species. Its basidiomata were found in June within the area of closed sawmill in the central part of Żywiec city (SW Poland). Description and illustration of Ph. cyanopus based on Polish specimens are provided and its ecology, general distribution and comparison with similar taxa – Pholiotina smithii, Pholiotina sulcatipes, and others are discussed as well. The identity of the active compounds of Ph. cyanopus was additionally determined. Liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC-MS) data sets were obtained to support the occurrence of psilocybin and its analogues – psilocin, baeocystin, norbaeocystin, and aeruginascin in air-dried basidiomata of the species. The content of psilocybin was found to be high (0.90±0.08% of dry weight), besides, analysed samples contained lower concentrations of psilocin (0.17±0.01%), and baeocystin (0.16±0.01%). Additionally, the chemical analysis revealed small amounts of norbaeocystin (0.053±0.004%) and aeruginascin (0.011±0.0007%) for the first time in the species.

em>Psathyrella ammophila is a psammophilous fungus most frequently inhabiting seashore beaches, sand dunes and sandy inland areas. Although it is a widely spread species, in some countries it is rare or threatened, including Poland, where it is classified as “endangered” (E). In Poland, P. ammophila has been found in 26 localities, including 14 new reports after 1970. We present two new Polish localities from white sand dunes at the western shore of the Baltic Sea (Wolin Island). Moreover, ecological information and macroscopic and microscopic features of the basidiocarp based on collected samples are presented. The problem of the disappearance of dunes as a primary habitat of P. ammophila is also discussed.

  • Jan 2020
On May 22, 2018, the 25th International Day for Biological Diversity, a “China Biodiversity Red List—Macrofungi” was officially released by the Ministry of Ecology and Environment of the People’s Republic of China and the Chinese Academy of Sciences. The List included 870 species of non-lichenized macro-ascomycetes (as “macro-ascomycetes” below). A total of 24 species were listed as threatened including 1 Possibly Extinct, 6 Critically Endangered, 3 Endangered and 14 Vulnerable, accounting for 2.76% of the species assessed. Besides, 189 macro-ascomycetes were assessed as Least Concern and 616 as Data Deficient, accounting for 21.72% and 70.80%, respectively. The evaluation method, assessment process and results were presented herein; and the status of the China’s macro-ascomycetes, geographic distribution of the threatened species and major threatening factors were analyzed. The conservation actions and advices were also proposed. Fungal taxonomy is fundamental of and essential for evaluation of biodiversity red list of threatened species. In a relatively long period of time, field investigations and taxonomic studies are critical tasks and need continuous financial support from different sources. Future evaluations of threatened species of macrofungi in China rely on co-operations among taxonomists, workers in nature reserves, ecologists and amateurs.

Agaricus bohusii Bon is an edible and prized mushroom especially common in Serbia and southern Europe. Herein, this species was chemically characterized by the evaluation of nutritional value (e.g. macromolecules, free sugars and fatty acids), bioactive compounds (e.g. tocopherols, phenolic compounds and organic acids), and antioxidant activity of its methanolic extract (e.g. scavenging activity, reducing power and inhibition of lipid peroxidation). Its antifungal preserving properties were also evaluated after the incorporation of A. bohusii extract in cream cheese, using the fungus Penicillium verucosum var. cyclopium as the source contaminant. Comparison of the sensory evaluation of cream cheese alone and enriched with A. bohusii extract was recorded. According to our findings, A. bohusii was a rich source of carbohydrates and proteins, containing γ-tocopherol as the only isoform of tocopherols. Polyunsaturated fatty acids also predominated over mono and unsaturated fatty acids. p-Hydroxybenzoic and p-coumaric acids were the phenolic acids identified in the studied sample; two related compounds were found in higher amounts: γ-l-glutaminyl-4-hydroxybenzene and cinnamic acid. Malic, oxalic and fumaric acids were the organic acids identified and quantified in A. bohusii. A high concentration of the total phenolics was in correlation with strong antioxidant capacity. Methanol extract successfully inhibited the development of P. verucosum var. cyclopium in cream cheese, tested at room temperature after 7 days of inoculation. Sensory evaluation showed cream cheese in combination with A. bohusii extract slightly more acceptable to panelists than cream cheese alone.

  • May 2023
Psychedelic fungi have received considerable attention recently due to their promising treatment potential of several psychiatric disorders and medical conditions, both in clinical settings but also as a nutraceutical. Besides research, a growing number of companies are developing capacity to conduct research and clinical trials where these fungi and their products can be used, and to provide these fungi to the public market that are rapidly becoming legal across the world. Whereas Psilocybe species are better known as psychedelic fungi, species in Panaeolus are also reputed to contain the psychedelic compound psilocybin and used recreationally. For the novice, there is no contemporary scientific summary of all the species in this genus that are known to be psychedelic, compared to those that are not. The global distribution and species diversity of these brown to white, often inconspicuous mushrooms are also not summarised, nor is it known to what extent DNA sequence data that are needed for identification have been generated for all of the species in this genus. However, psychedelic Panaeolus species are used and moved across the world. This lack of data makes it difficult to regulate bioexploitation and apply law enforcement of these fungi and the compounds they contain, especially seen in the light of the rapid development of the related markets. The aim of this review is to summarise current scientific data and knowledge on the species biodiversity, geographical distribution, extent of sequence data for identification purposes, and the psychedelic potential of species, based on published results. The review revealed where species are mostly known from, while also indicating areas seriously lacking such biodiversity data. A significant degree of study across the world is still needed to confirm which of these species are truly psychedelic and exactly what compounds they can produce.
