Fungal diversity notes 1–110: taxonomic and phylogenetic contributions to fungal species
This paper is a compilation of notes on 110 fungal taxa, including one new family, 10 new genera, and 76 new species, representing a wide taxonomic and geographic range. The new family,…
Fungal diversity notes 367–490: taxonomic and phylogenetic contributions to fungal taxa
TLDR
Eight new genera, 101 new species, two new combinations, one neotype, four reference specimens, new host or distribution records for eight species and one alternative morphs are introduced in this paper.
Fungal diversity notes 491–602: taxonomic and phylogenetic contributions to fungal taxa
TLDR
This is a continuity of a series of taxonomic and phylogenetic papers on the fungi where materials were collected from many countries, examined and described and DNA sequence data is analysed from concatenated datasets to infer phylogenetic relationships and substantiate systematic positions of taxa within appropriate ranks.
Notes for genera: Ascomycota
TLDR
This work is intended to provide the foundation for updating the ascomycete component of the “Without prejudice list of generic names of Fungi” published in 2013, which will be developed into a list of protected generic names.
Families of Diaporthales based on morphological and phylogenetic evidence
Fungal diversity notes 253–366: taxonomic and phylogenetic contributions to fungal taxa
TLDR
In the Ascomycota the new genera Angustospora (Testudinaceae), Camporesia (Xylariaceae), Clematidis, Crassiparies, and Parameliola (Pleosporales genera incertae sedis) are introduced.
Fungal diversity notes 603–708: taxonomic and phylogenetic notes on genera and species
TLDR
This study introduces a new family Fuscostagonosporaceae in Dothideomycetes and introduces the new ascomycete genera Acericola, Castellaniomyces, Dictyosporina and Longitudinalis.
Fungal diversity notes 840–928: micro-fungi associated with Pandanaceae
TLDR
Both studies reveal that the micro-fungi on Pandanaceae is particularly rich in hyphomycetes.
The Faces of Fungi database: fungal names linked with morphology, phylogeny and human impacts
TLDR
The present paper introduces the FoF database to the scientific community and briefly reviews some of the problems associated with classification and identification of the main fungal groups.
Finding needles in haystacks: linking scientific names, reference specimens and molecular data for Fungi
TLDR
A set of standards and protocols are proposed to improve the data quality of new sequences, and it is suggested how type and other reference sequences can be used to improve identification of Fungi.
