Techniques for recording and isolating myxomycetes: updated

Preliminary studies in the northern part of the “Bitsevsky forest” natural and historical park resulted in the collection of 79 specimens of nivicolous myxomycetes belonging to 6 species from 3 genera. This is the first record of nivicolous myxomycetes in urban parks in lowlands. Photographs of sporocarps and micromorphological structures are given for each species. Lamproderma ovoideoechinulatum var. microspora, L. zonatopulchellum, and Meriderma carestiae var. carestiae were found for the first time in Moscow Region. The data indicate that high level of anthropogenic pressure, namely trampling and moderate improvement does not restrict sporulation of nivicolous species.

We investigated the seasonality of myxomycete fruiting body formation under natural conditions in the field during four years in the Polistovo-Lovatskaya bog system (Northwestern Russia). It was shown that the species diversity of myxomycetes peaks in mid-summer and gradually decreases afterwards. The species composition of myxomycetes varies depending on the season. There were five phenological groups distinguished: summer, early autumn, late autumn, spring and species without pronounced periods of mass formation of fruiting bodies. It is shown the list of identifiable taxa may significantly vary in different years and there are widespread species that do not form sporophores every year. Thus, when conducting field studies, it is necessary to make observations over several years and throughout the entire snowless period.
