Abstract
is paper presents 18 species of fungi that are new to the Kampinos National
Park and their buffer zone. Seventeen of these species were found during studies
on wind-damaged areas aer the forest was damaged in 2017. One species new to
Poland has been described and illustrated (Odonticium septocystidiatum). A few of
the species recorded (Ciliolarina cfr. laricina,Daldinia petriniae,Pseudovalsa
umbonata,Spongipellis litschaueri) are very rare in Poland and hitherto mentioned
from single localities in the country. Two species from the Polish red list of
macrofungi were recorded in the Kampinos National Park for the rst time
namely, Punctularia strigosozonata (E) and Trichaptum biforme (R). e current
number of macromycete taxa known from Kampinos National Park has reached a
total of 1,630.

1. Introduction
Natural disturbances (e.g., res, ooding, windstorms, and insect outbreaks),
especially large-area canopy damage, play a crucial role in forest dynamics, inter alia,
as an essential driver of biological diversity. Moreover, the success of the
demographic expansion of a wide range of species from all taxonomic groups is
strongly dependent on natural disturbances (e.g., Dobrowolska, 2010; Pickett &
White, 1985; Willig & Presley, 2018). However, knowledge about the role of
disturbances in the regeneration of forest ecosystems is still incomplete (Obidziński,
2001; Szwagrzyk, 2000; Szwagrzyk et al., 2018). e importance of disturbances for
biodiversity, including species diversity, was conrmed by studies of mycobiota in
the areas damaged by re, where many species new to Kampinos National Park
(KNP) in central Poland were found (Gierczyk et al., 2017; Gierczyk, Szczepkowski,
Kujawa, & Ślusarczyk, 2019; Gierczyk, Szczepkowski, Ślusarczyk, & Kujawa, 2019).
Studies of various groups of spore organisms (fungi, lichens, and bryophytes) on
windthrown trees have provided new data on the diversity and ecology of these
organisms in KNP (Zaniewski & Fojcik, 2020; Zaniewski et al., 2019).

e occurrence of strong winds in Poland has been increasing in recent decades
(Lorenc, 2012). Windstorms have caused numerous disturbances and catastrophic
destruction of managed forest stands (e.g., Chojnacka-Ożga & Ożga, 2018a; Taszarek
& Gromadzki, 2017; Zajączkowski, 1991). Disturbances of forests also occurred a
few times in KNP due to strong winds, for example, in 1964, 1972, 1980, 1993, 1994,
2004, and 2017 (Andrzejewska, 2003; Hryniewiecki, 2004; Lorenc, 2012; Lubański,
2003; Tyburski, 2015,2019; Tyburski & Przybylski, 2016). Recently, two strong
winds have damaged a few fragments of forests in the KNP at the beginning of the
summer of 2017. is windthrow incident enabled a study on postdisturbance
mycobiota of the Park, with particular emphasis on the fungi occurring on different
parts of windthrown trees. In the rst year of study (2018), 62 species of fungi were
found on 30 trees belonging to three genera (Betula pendula,Pinus sylvestris,
Quercus petreae,Q. × rosacea) (Zaniewski et al., 2019).
e aim of this paper is to present the species of fungi new to KNP found in the
areas of the windthrow during the rst two years of study (2018–2019). Additionally,
one interesting species of fungus new to the Park buffer zone has been included.
2. Material and Methods
2.1. Location and Description of Research Plots
e study was carried out on two plots located in the Rózin and Grabina Protective
Subdistricts/Forest Subdistricts (in Kampinos Protective District/Forest District)
(Figure 1). e Grabina plot is located in the partial protection area in forest
compartments No. 125a and 125c. e 84-year-old damaged stand was dominated
by Scots pine Pinus sylvestris with singly-occurring common aspen Populus tremula
and two birch species: silver birch Betula pendula and downy birch B.pubescens
(Figure 2). As a result of the windfall, a canopy gap (0.6 ha) of an almost circular
shape was created, with a completely damaged stand. e trees in the damaged pine
stand were planted on ridges and deep furrows, which are still visible today (Forest
ecosystem protection operate, 2002).
e Rózin plot is also located in the partial protection area in forest compartments
No. 258a and 258b. e damaged stand was approximately 104 years old and
comprised planted trees. e stand consisted of a 90% share of two oak taxa: sessile
oak Quercus petraea and Q. × rosacea with a 10% share of silver birch and sparse
Scots pine trees (Figure 3) (Forest ecosystem protection operate, 2002). e windfall
plot occupies an area of approximately 5 ha in the shape of an irregular and broken
streak. e stand was only partially destroyed. e examined oaks belonged to the
sessile oak species or represented hybrids of sessile oak and pedunculate oak
(Q. robur), characterized by a predominance of sessile oak traits, i.e., Q. × rosacea.
2.2. Methods
Field studies were conducted between May and October 2018 and 2019. irty
windthrown trees, with 10 trees of each species (oak, birch, and pine), were subjected
to a detailed study on windfall plots. Fungal species composition was investigated in
12 parts of each tree comprising tree pit, soil of lower side root disc, roots of lower
side root disc, soil of upper root disc, roots of upper root disc, trunk bottom (0–1 m
high), lower trunk (1 m half of the trunk height), upper trunk (half of the trunk
height base of the crown), thick branches of lower crown, thin branches of lower
crown, thick branches of upper crown, and thin branches of upper crown. Branches
up to approximately 7 cm in diameter were considered thin, and those higher than
this value as thick. e collected specimens were identied using standard
mycotaxonomical methods (Clemençon, 2009). Specimens were identied using the
following monographs: Daldinia (Stadler et al., 2014), Mycena,Phloeomana
(Aronsen & Læssøe, 2016), pyrenomycetes (Ellis & Ellis, 1997; Wergen, 2018),
Odonticium,Phanerochaete,Punctularia (Bernicchia & Gorión, 2010), Ganoderma,
Spongipellis, and Trichaptum (Bernicchia, 2005; Ryvarden et al., 2017; Tomšovský,
2012). e nomenclature of basidiomycetous fungi was used according to Funga
Nordica (Knudsen & Vesterholt, 2012) and the above-mentioned monographs and

for ascomycetes according to MycoBank Database (http://www.mycobank.org/).
Plant names are according to Mirek et al. (2002). reat categories of fungal species
in Poland are according to the “Red list of the macrofungi in Poland” (RL)
(Wojewoda & Ławrynowicz, 2006). Forest compartment numbers were obtained
from the Forest Data Bank (https://www.bdl.lasy.gov.pl/). Dried specimens were
deposited in the fungarium of the Department Forest Protection of the Warsaw
University of Life Sciences SGGW (WAML) and the private fungaria of B. Gierczyk
(BGF) and T. Ślusarczyk (TSH). Each number represents a different collection.
3. Results List of the Species
In the course of the study, a total of 185 taxa were collected (identied to the level of
species, forms, varieties, and in a few cases, of genera) (unpubl. data), including 18
species new to the KNP and its buffer zone, which are presented below.

3.1. Ascomycota
Ciliolarina cfr. laricina (Raitv.) Svrček. Specimen examined: KNP, Łubiec,
2.5 km NW, Leszno municipality, Kampinos PD, Grabina PSD, forest compartment
No.: 125a,c; 2019-10-27; numerous ascomata on the trunk of the fallen Pinus
sylvestris; leg. & det. TŚ; TSH 509/2019. Notes: Saprobic species inhabiting twigs,
branches, bark, and wood of Larix,Pinus, and Picea. In Poland, it was reported from
Lasy Janowskie LP (Chmiel, 1997) and Wielkopolska region (Gierczyk & Ślusarczyk,
2020). Studied specimens are most similar to C. laricina except for dimensions of
spores (6–8 × 2.5–3 μm in the former in comparison to 7–11 × 2.5–3.5 μm in the
latter). Some other Ciliolarina species occurring on pine wood: C. pinicola (Henning
& Plöttner) Huhtinen (differing in colored excipular cells, apical pore not blue in
Melzer reagent, and longer as well broader spores), C. neglecta Huhtinen (differing in
short stipitate apothecia, and shorter as well narrower spores) (Huhtinen, 1993;
Raitviir, 2004).
Daldinia petriniae Y. M. Ju, J. D. Rogers & F. San Martín (Figure 4). Specimen
examined: KNP, Zaborówek, 1.5 km NNW, Leszno municipality, Kampinos PD,
Rózin PSD, forest compartment No.: 258a, b; 2018-09-10, 2019-08-31; numerous
stromata on branches of the fallen Betula pendula; leg. & det. TŚ, ASz, BG;
TŚF282/2018, WAML 1041, 1051, BGF0004280. Notes: It is a rare species, growing
on Betulaceae, mainly on Alnus and Betula. In Poland, D. petriniae has been reported
from Starożyn res. (Stadler et al., 2014) and Gorce Mts (Wojewoda et al., 2016). It has
also been collected in Las Marceliński in Poznań, BGF0004768 (Gierczyk, unpub.
data). It is probably more common and widespread but may be confused with other
Daldinia species.
Dendrostoma leiphaemia (Fr.) Senan. & K. D. Hyde. (Figure 5). Specimen

In Poland, it is known from (i) a few historical records, e.g., Stadtwald pr. Angerburg
(forest area E of Węgorzewo), Skomantberg pr. Oletzko (Skomentno Wielkie, near
the Skomentno Lake, Olecko), Ostrokollen (Ostrykół near Ełk), Kopyken pr. Lyck
(Kopijki near Ełk) (Lettau, 1912, aer Ohlert, 1870, as Tromera resinae Fr.; Ohlert,
1870, as Lecidea resinae Fr.), Babia Góra (Rehman, 1879), Góry Świętokrzyskie

and the United Kingdom (Antonín et al., 2006; Bernicchia & Gorjón, 2010; Borges
et al., 2010; Dingemans, 2021; Dämon, 2001; Kučera & Kautmanová, 2011;
Odonticium septocystidiatum, 2021; Volobuev & Tokareva, 2017). Odonticium
septocystidiatum grows on wood and bark of various coniferous and deciduous trees.
Its septate, encrusted, cylindrical cystidia, and absence of clamp connections make it
easy to recognize. Similar septocystidia are present in the hymenium of
Ceraceomyces eludens,Hyphoderma setigerum,Hyphodontia ssp., and Suillosporium
cystidiatum; however, these taxa differ by the presence of clamps and spore shape
and size. Species description: Basidiomata resupinate, smooth to slightly
tuberculate, dark cream-colored to orange. Margin paler, indistinctly brillose.
Hyphal system monomitic. Context hyphae thin-walled; subiculum composed of
thick-walled elements. Crystalline and amorphic grains present in hymenium and
subiculum. Basidia four-spored, clavate. Spores allantoid, hyaline, smooth, without
iodine reaction, 4.5–6 × 1.5–2.5 μm. Cystidia (septocystidia) projecting, up to
140 μm long, cylindrical, septate, composed of ve–eight short-celled elements,
encrusted with yellowish resinous grains. Clamps absent.

hitherto known from Białowieża Primeval Forest (Karasiński & Wołkowycki, 2015)
and Osetno res. (Karasiński & Domian, 2016). It grows predominantly on living or
dead Quercus. It has been synonymized with S. delectans (Peck) Murrill; however,
a molecular analysis conrmed that they are separate species (Tomšovský, 2012).

No. 76h in 2017–2018. Species common in Poland, it is known from over 30
localities (Kujawa, 2020; Wojewoda, 2003; Wojewoda et al., 2002).
4. Discussion
In Poland, strong winds and even hurricanes have disturbed forest ecosystems on
numerous occasions in recent years (Chojnacka-Ożga & Ożga, 2018a,2018b; Sierota
et al., 2019; Taszarek & Gromadzki, 2017). However, no mycological or
phytopathological studies have been conducted in such areas in the country.
Field research in KNP in the years 2018–2019 resulted in interesting mycological
ndings with 18 novel taxa for KNP: 10 Ascomycota and eight Basidiomycota.
One species (Ganoderma adspersum) was found on a dying horse chestnut tree in
the Park buffer zone. Seventeen of them were found during the studies on
wind-damaged areas aer the gale, which took place in 2017. Among them, one
species (Odonticium septocystidiatum) has not been reported previously from
Poland. Some have been recorded very rarely in Poland, hitherto known from a few
localities (Ciliolarina cfr. laricina,Daldinia petriniae,Pseudovalsa umbonata, and
Spongipellis litschaueri). Two species, Punctularia strigosozonata and Trichaptum
biforme, are placed in endangered and rare threat categories in the “Red list of the
macrofungi in Poland,” respectively (Wojewoda & Ławrynowicz, 2006). While the
former species is very rare and threatened in Poland, the second one is known from
many localities (Kujawa, 2020); we recommend that it should not be included in the
“Red list of the macrofungi. Seven species new to KNP were found on

windthrow-oaks (Dendrostoma leiphaemia,Mycena hiemalis,Nemania serpens,
P. umbonata,Rosellinia aquila,Tubeua cerea, and Trichaptum biforme), ve on
windthrow-birches (D. petriniae,Diatrypella favacea,M. hiemalis,Phanerochaete
magnoliae, and T. biforme), four on windthrow-pines (Ciliolarina cfr. laricina,
Mycena smithiana,Sarea resinae, and Sphaeropsis sapinea), and one on
windthrow-aspen (P. strigosozonata). One of the listed species (Sarea resinae) was
recently found on a spruce trunk in the wind-destroyed forest stands of “Szast”
Protective Forest (Pisz FD) (Szczepkowski, unpbl. data). Some of the species
(e.g., M. smithiana,S. sapinea, and T. biforme) have also been found in forests
damaged by re, industrial emissions, and other factors (Kałucka, 2009; Kowalski,
1988; Kowalski & Zych, 2002a,2002b). In contrast, they have also been reported
from well-preserved forests and managed forests without large natural disturbances.
Eight ascomycetes (Ciliolarina cfr. laricina,Daldinia petriniae,Dendrostoma
leiphaemia,Diatrypella favacea,N. serpens,P. umbonata,R. aquila, and S. sapinea)
and eight basidiomycetous (G. adspersum,Mycena hiemalis,M. smithiana,
O. septocystidiatum,Phanerochate magnoliaae,Punctularia strigosozonata,
S. litschaueri, and T. biforme) fungi new to KNP are saprophytes or occasional
pathogens. ey were associated with branches and trunks of windthrow trees and
other woody remnants. Fallen twigs and small branches are typically dominated by
Ascomycota and corticoid Basidiomycota, which may develop from latent
propagules (Boddy & Heilmann-Clausen, 2008). One species, G. adspersum, was
found on the trunk of a dying tree in the Park buffer zone. Moreover, one species
collected (S. resinae) is resinicolous fungus species and another species (T. cerea) is
growing on stromata of pyrenomycetous fungi. e last species was also reported on
wood and bark lying on the ground and on herbaceous substrates, but it could
possibly grow on the mycelium of other ascomycetes (Sánchez & Bianchinotti, 2010).
e current results increase the number of taxa reported from KNP (without
including phytopathogenic microfungi) to 1,630 (1,408 Basidiomycota and 222
Ascomycota) (Gierczyk, Szczepkowski, Ślusarczyk, & Kujawa, 2019; Marciszewska
et al., 2020). e studies on wind-damaged areas of KNP will be continued in the
coming years, and the results and analyses of the succession of fungal biota will be
published.

... KPN is one of the most mycologically explored areas in Poland. However, each year, new species of fungi have been reported for KPN (e.g., Marciszewska et al., 2020;Szczepkowski et al., 2021). Aer the forest was wind-damaged in the western part of KNP (summer 2017), a 4-year project surveying fungi on windthrown trees was undertaken (2018)(2019)(2020)(2021). ...
... Aer the forest was wind-damaged in the western part of KNP (summer 2017), a 4-year project surveying fungi on windthrown trees was undertaken (2018)(2019)(2020)(2021). e survey has revealed many interesting findings concerning taxa of all lignicolous fungi and has identified new species of non-lignicolous fungi in KPN (Szczepkowski et al., 2021(Szczepkowski et al., , 2022Zaniewski et al., 2019). is paper presents newly identified species of fungi in windthrow areas of KNP during the final year of the project (2021) and provides condensed information on their distribution in Poland. ...
... irty windthrown trees, with 10 trees of each species (Quercus spp., B. pendula, and P. sylvestris), were extensively studied in the windfall plots. Detailed information on the study area and methods has been previously published (Szczepkowski et al., 2021(Szczepkowski et al., , 2022Zaniewski et al., 2019). e collected specimens were identified using standard mycotaxonomical methods (Clemençon, 2009) by light microscopy. ...

We identified 17 species of fungi that are new to Kampinos National Park. Sixteen were found during surveys of areas damaged by a strong wind in 2017. The remaining species was found outside the windthrow area. Descriptions of four species new to Poland ( Cortinarius subcompar , Hyaloscypha quercicola , Hypocrea tremelloides , and Trechispora aff. invisitata ) are also provided. The current number of macromycetes taxa identified in Kampinos National Park is 1,654.
... is windthrown-incident enabled study on post-disturbance mycobiota of the Park, with particular emphasis on the fungi occurring on different parts of windthrown trees. Detailed information on the study area, methods, and results from the first 2 years (2018-2019) have been published previously (Szczepkowski et al., 2021;Zaniewski et al., 2019). e aim of this paper is to present the species of fungi new to KNP found in the windthrow areas during the third year of study (2020) and give a condensed information on their distribution in Poland. ...

The paper presents eleven species of fungi new to the Kampinos National Park. They were found during the studies on wind-damaged areas after the forest was damaged in 2017. Two species new to Poland were described and illustrated ( Nectria nigrescens and Strossmayeria basitricha ). The current number of macromycetes taxa known from the Kampinos National Park has reached 1,637.

Drought in the forest is not only a prolonged state of water shortage, but also an occasion where interactions between plants and fungi are affected. Water efficiency accelerates a range of pathologies in interactions between organisms, influencing the ecosystems and their interacting biological components. This study focuses on the role of mycorrhizal and endophyte fungi in alleviating the effects of soil water shortage, and on the impact of their altered activity during drought on the health of trees. The issues presented here show the fundamental role of the mycorrhizal mycelium and the mechanism of water transport to the plant in the course of other phenomena (withering, pathogenesis, endophytes biology) that occur in trees under influence of drought, with particular attention on managed coniferous stands. Conclusions resulting from published information on this topic emphasize the negative impact of soil moisture deficiency on the ectomycorrhizal fungi functioning and, in contrast, on the promotion of the growth of some endophytes, pathogens and hemi-parasitic mistletoes ( Viscum spp.).

Continuation of the mycological study of the fire-damaged pine forest in Kampinos National Park in central Poland in 2017 produced interesting new findings. Among the taxa collected, 36 were new to the park, six had not been hitherto reported from Poland ( Calycellina araneocincta , Ciliolarina aff. laetifica , Clitocybe metachroides , Galerina cerina f. longicystis , Parasola cuniculorum , Pleonectria pinicola ), and the previous status of one taxon ( Pleonectria cucurbitula ) had been uncertain. Short descriptions based on collected specimens have been prepared for all taxa new to Poland. The current number of taxa of macromycetes identified in Kampinos National Park has reached 1,604.

The experiment conducted in the Kampinos National Park since 2015 was aimed at assessing the sprouting ability of black cherry (Prunus serotina Ehrh.) in response to different measures of mechanical control and mycobiota colonizing the dying trees. Basal cut-stump, cutting at ca. 1 m above the ground and girdling were performed on 4 terms, two plots and applied to 25 trees, 600 trees in total. Sprouts were removed every 8 weeks since the initial treatment for 4 consecutive growing seasons, except winter-treated trees. At the end of the fourth season of control, 515 out of 600 trees were dead (86%): 81% on Lipków and 90% on Sieraków plot. Among 18 experiment variants with sprouts removal, 17 showed more than 80% of dead trees. The lowest, 76% share, concerned summer cut-stump at the base of the tree. For winter measures, the share of dead trees was lower in all cases and ranged from 28% to 64% proving that sprouts removal contributes to the drop of sprouting strength and quicker dying of the trees. Almost 80% of trees showed sporocarps that represented 51 taxa of macrofungi in total, including 6 Ascomycota and 45 Basidiomycota. The group of six most frequently encountered fungi includes: Hyphoderma setigerum, Bjerkandera adusta, Peni-ophora cinerea, Armillaria ostoyae, Nectria cinnabarina, Stereum hirsutum. Both plots had similar share of black cherry individuals with sporocarps of macrofungi, that is, 81% and 78% for Sieraków and Lipków respectively. The share of colonized trees and the number of reported macrofungal taxa increased significantly compared to the year following the treatment. In addition, the composition of macrofungi changed with the progressing dying of trees. These results broaden the knowledge about macroscopic fungi colonising and living on black cherry within its secondary range of distribution. Moreover, one macrofungus and two microfungi new for KNP are reported.

The internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region is regarded as a formal fungal primary barcode with a high probability of the correct identification for a broad group of fungi. ITS sequences have been widely used to determine many fungal species and analysis of rDNA ITS is still one of the most popular tools used in mycology. However, this region is not equally variable in all groups of fungi; therefore, identification may be problematic and result in ambiguous data, especially in some species-rich genera of Ascomycota. For these reasons, identification based on rDNA ITS is usually complemented by morphological observations and analysis of additional genes. Reliable species identification of Ascomycota members is essential in diagnosing plant diseases, verifying air quality and the effectiveness of agronomic practices, or analyzing relationships between microorganisms. Therefore, the present study aimed to verify, using specific examples, the extent to which ITS sequence analysis is useful in species identification of pathogens and saprobionts from Ascomycota and demonstrate problems related to such identification in practice. We analyzed 105 ITS sequences of isolates originating from air and plant material. Basic local alignment search tool (BLASTn) significantly contributed to the reliable species identification of nearly 80% of isolates such as Arthrinium arundinis , Beauveria bassiana , Boeremia exigua , Cladosporium cladosporioides , Epicoccum nigrum , Nigrospora oryzae , Sclerotinia sclerotiorum , or Sordaria fimicola and members of the genera Alternaria and Trichoderma . However, for most isolates, additional morphological observations, information regarding the isolate origin and, where possible, a PCR with species-specific primers were helpful and complementary. Using our practical approach, we determined that ITS-based species identification and comparative analysis with GenBank sequences significantly helps identifying Ascomycota members. However, in many cases, this should be regarded as suggestive of a taxon because the data usually require the use of additional tools to verify the results of such analysis.

Pionowe zróżnicowanie bogactwa i składu gatunkowego myko−, licheno− i briobioty drzew powiatrołomowych w Kampinoskim Parku Narodowym. Sylwan 163 (12): 980−988. DOI: https://doi.org/10.26202/sylwan.2019091. Vertical distribution of species richness of various groups of organisms within trees is still insufficiently understood. The reason for this are, among others, the difficulties in accessing standing trees. The aim of the study was to determine the differentiation of species richness of fungi, lichens and lichenicolous fungi and bryophyte of three tree species (oak, birch and pine) within windthrow areas in the Kampinos National Park (central Poland). Ten individuals of each tree species were chosen. They were only thrown, not broken, without serious damage, still alive and easily accessible. The investigations of species composition were performed in five parts of each tree: trunk bottom, lower trunk, upper trunk, lower crown and upper crown. Individual parts of the trees were measured, than their surface and volume were determined. The species richness of the studied groups of organisms was calculated using rarefaction curves based on the number of samples, volume and area of the distinguished tree parts. Species composition changes of the tree parts were described using non−metric multidimensional scaling. The most important parts of trees for fungi were the crowns of trees, in particular oak’s. The highest richness of lichens was found within the crown of oaks, however they were recorded within all of the distinguished tree parts. The highest richness of bryophytes was recorded in the lower crown of oak and the trunk base of birch, but this group of organisms generally did not inhabit the birch and pine crowns. In the case of rarefaction curves based on the number of samples, the large positive meaning of the oak was observed, however the observed pattern was different when the volume and surface were taken into account. The general species richness of the studied taxa was similar for three tree species, the pine was distinguished positively in case of fungi, birch – in the case of lichens and oak – in the case of bryophytes. The species of trees differ from each other in terms of the species composition of the studied groups of organisms. We also observed the gradual change in the species composition from the base of the trunk to the upper crown.

Resinicolous fungi constitute a heterogeneous assemblage of fungi that live on fresh and solidified plant resins. The genus Sarea includes, according to current knowledge, two species, S. resinae and S. difformis . In contrast to other resinicolous discomycetes, which are placed in genera also including non-resinicolous species, Sarea species only ever fruit on resin. The taxonomic classification of Sarea has proven to be difficult and currently the genus, provisionally and based only on morphological features, has been assigned to the Trapeliales ( Lecanoromycetes ). In contrast, molecular studies have noted a possible affinity to the Leotiomycetes . Here we review the taxonomic placement of Sarea using sequence data from seven phylogenetically informative DNA regions including ribosomal (ITS, nucSSU, mtSSU, nucLSU) and protein-coding ( rpb1 , rpb2 , mcm7 ) regions. We combined available and new sequence data with sequences from major Pezizomycotina classes, especially Lecanoromycetes and Leotiomycetes , and assembled three different taxon samplings in order to place the genus Sarea within the Pezizomycotina . Based on our data, none of the applied phylogenetic approaches (Bayesian Inference, Maximum Likelihood and Maximum Parsimony) supported the placement of Sarea in the Trapeliales or any other order in the Lecanoromycetes . A placement of Sarea within the Leotiomycetes is similarly unsupported. Based on our data, Sarea forms an isolated and highly supported phylogenetic lineage within the " Leotiomyceta ". From the results of our multilocus phylogenetic analyses we propose here a new class, order, and family, Sareomycetes , Sareales and Sareaceae in the Ascomycota to accommodate the genus Sarea . The genetic variability within the newly proposed class suggests that it is a larger group that requires further infrageneric classification.

The current nature of forest management in Poland reflects its history and more than 100 years of economic activity affecting forests since independence in 1918. Before that time, different forest management models were used, related to the nature of the Prussian economy in the north of the country, the Russian economy in the central-eastern part, and the Austrian economy in south-eastern Poland. The consequence of these management models, as well as the differing climate zones in which they were used, resulted in varied forest health. Since the end of World War II, forest coverage within Poland‘s new borders has increased from 20.8% to currently 29.6%, mainly as a result of afforestation of wastelands and former agricultural lands. This paper describes changes in the health of forests and their biological diversity in Poland in the context of weather extremes, species composition, forest management, the forest industry, and damage from insects and pathogenic fungi over the last 30 years.
