New Svalbard Fungi

  • Chapter
Arctic and Alpine Mycology II

Part of the book series: Environmental Science Research ((ESRH,volume 34))

Abstract

A list of 25 higher fungi is presented from Svalbard (Norway), mostly with detailed descriptions and illustrations. A new genus, Polaroscyphus, is described for a hyaloscyphaceous taxon with rounded ascus apices and disarticulating spores. An undescribed, large spored taxon of Conocybe, belonging to the C. pubescensgroup, is briefly treated. Two collections of Marasmius kallioneusare reported. Brown spores are shown to be a character present in Hyaloscyphaceae. This specimen is conspecific with Psilocistella obsoleta (Vel. )Svrček, the type of which is shown to have juvenile apothecia only. Most of the material is reported for the first time from Svalbard and many are new to the Arctic. Other species in the list are: Helvella pocillumHarmaja, Leucoscypha hetieri(Boud. ) Rifai, Octospora humosa(Fr.: Fr. ) Dennis, O. melina(Vel. ) Dennis & Itzerott, O. moraveciiKhare, Scutellinia minor(Vel. ) Svrček, Ciboria polygoni-vivipariEckbl., Crocicreas culmicola(Desm. ) Carpenter, C. cyathoideum(Bull.) Carpenter var. cacaliae(Pers. ) Carpenter, Cudoniella clavus(Alb. & Schw.: Fr.) Dennis, Psilachnum acutum(Vel. ) Svrček, P. inquilinum(Karst.) Dennis, Trichopezizella nidulus(Schmidt & Kuntze: Fr. ) Raitv. var. hystriculaKarst., Bolbitiuscf. variicolorAtk., Conocybe magnicapitataOrton, Flagelloscypha kavinae (Pilát) W.B. Cooke, Inocybe praetervisa Quél., I. leucoblemaKühner, Melanoleuca cognata(Fr. ) Konr. & Maubl., Rickenella fibula(Bull.: Fr. ) Raith., and Typhula culmigena(Mont. & Fr.) Berthier.
