“…Studies have contributed to increase the knowledge about the distribution and description of new species of the genus in Brazil, such as Baseia (2003), Baseia and Calonge (2008), , Cortez and Alves (2012), Cortez (2013), andCrous et al (2018). This study reports the occurrence of two species of Calvatia in the Brazilian Cerrado, improving the mycological knowledge of this important Brazilian biome.…”

Calvatia is a genus of gasteroid fungi, comprising about 47 species worldwide. In this paper we report the second worldwide occurrence of two poorly known species of Calvatia, recorded in the Cerrado biome of Brazil: C. oblongispora and C. nodulata. Detailed morphological descriptions and illustrations, including scanning electron micrographs of hyphae and basidiospores are provided, as well a discussion on their taxonomy and geographic distribution.

“…In Brazil, several mycologists have contributed to the knowledge of this group (Hennings [15], Silveira [16], Rick [17], Baseia [18], Wartchow and Silva [19], Baseia and Calonge [20], Cortez et al [21], Cortez and Alves [22], and Alves and Cortez [23]). However, there were no records for the genus Calvatia in "brejos. "…”

Studies carried out in tropical rain forest enclaves in semiarid region of Brazil revealed a new species ofCalvatia. The basidiomata were collected during the rainy season of 2009 and 2012 in two states of Northeast Brazil. Macroscopic and microscopic analyses were based on dried basidiomata with the aid of light microscope and scanning electron microscope.Calvatia nodulatais recognized by its pyriform to turbinate basidiomata, exoperidium granulose to pilose and not persistent, subgleba becoming hollow at maturity, nodulose capillitium, and punctate basidiospores (3–5 μm). Detailed description, taxonomic comments, and illustrations with photographs and drawings are provided.

“…Traditionally, the puffballs have been included into the family Lycoperdaceae Chevall., but after molecular analyses -nurDNA- (Hibbett & al., 1997), they have been transferred to Agaricaceae Chevall. Until the XXth century, these fungi were poorly studied in Brazil (Hennings, 1904a, b;Silveira, 1943;Rick, 1961;Homrich, 1975;Bononi & al., 1981Bononi & al., , 1984, but in the last two decades this scenario has changed with the addition of new records (Baseia, 2003;Baseia, 2005a, b;Wartchow & Silva, 2007;Cortez & Alves, 2012;Alves & Cortez, 2014; and new taxa (Cortez & al., 2007(Cortez & al., , 2011Suárez & al., 2009;Alfredo & al., 2012Alfredo & al., , 2014aAlves & Cortez, 2013;.…”

The goal of this study was to increase the knowledge of gasteroid fungi in Atlantic Forest biome, which is considered one of the most important hot-spots of the world. Field expeditions were carried out in the Reserva Biologica Municipal de Santa Rita Mitzi Brandao area, in the southeastern part of Minas Gerais. 39 samples belonging to 11 species of earthstars and puffballs are new record for Minas Gerais, Geastrum javanicum Lév., Bovista cunninghamii Kreisel, and Lycoperdon lambinonii Demoulin are first records for Brazil. Information about the locality, morphological characters, illustrations of the basidiomata, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) of the basidiospores, as well as its distribution in Brazil, are given for all species.
