Corticioid fungi (Basidiomycota) in mangrove forests of the islands of Iriomote and Okinawa, Japan

Abstract

Sixteen species of corticioid fungi (Basidiomycota) were collected from mangrove forests in the islands of Iriomote and Okinawa, Japan. All the species are new records for the Japanese mangrove forests. Of these species, 6 species are newly reported from Japan: Cerocorticium molle, Gloeocystidiellum moniliforme, G. wakullum, Hyphoderma ayresii, Phanerochaete tropica, and Phlebia acanthocystis. Their morphological descriptions, illustrations, and remarks based on the Japanese specimens are provided.

Contribution to the knowledge of the genus Phlebia in Italy

“…The distribution of P. acanthocystis is limited to Hawaii (Nakasone & Gilbertson, 1998;Hjortstam & Ryvarden, 2007), Japan (Maekawa et al, 2003), Chile (Gorjón & Hallenberg 2012), and recently it was collected from the Island de la Réunion (Duhem, 2008). The record of P. acanthocystis from Italy can be considered the Macroscopically P. nothofagi is very close to P. fuscoatra (Fr.)…”

“…In contrast, locality Na Voskopě in the Bohemian Karst is a mosaic of dry and warm thermophilous oak and oak-hornbeam forests on limestone. Phlebia acanthocystis appears to thrive in diverse habitats, being reported from Hawaii and mangrove forests (Maekawa et al 2003). t e r s. Hyphal system in subiculum and subhymenium monomitic; dimitic in core of aculei; trimitic in basal area of aculei.…”

Phlebiodontia rajchenbergii gen. et sp. nov. (Polyporales, Meruliaceae) from Brazilian Atlantic Forest based on morphological and molecular evidence

“…Geographical distribution and ecology.-the species was reported growing on wood and bark of numerous angiosperms branches (Martini, 2016). It was originally described from Hawaii, but there are records of the species worldwide (Maekawa et al, 2003;Duhem, 2008;Gorjón et al, 2012;Jang et al, 2016;Zíbarová, 2017).…”
