Cryptosporella is a genus of fungi in the family Gnomoniaceae. [1] The genus was first circumscribed by Pier Andrea Saccardo in 1877. [2] The genus contains 19 species. [3]
Pier Andrea Saccardo was an Italian botanist and mycologist. He was also the author of a color classification system that he called Chromotaxia. He was elected to the Linnean Society in 1916 as a foreign member. His multi-volume Sylloge Fungorum was one of the first attempts to produce a comprehensive treatise on the fungi which made use of the spore-bearing structures for classification.
Blastocladiomycota is one of the currently recognized phyla within the kingdom Fungi. Blastocladiomycota was originally the order Blastocladiales within the phylum Chytridiomycota until molecular and zoospore ultrastructural characters were used to demonstrate it was not monophyletic with Chytridiomycota. The order was first erected by Petersen for a single genus, Blastocladia, which was originally considered a member of the oomycetes. Accordingly, members of Blastocladiomycota are often referred to colloquially as "chytrids." However, some feel "chytrid" should refer only to members of Chytridiomycota. Thus, members of Blastocladiomyota are commonly called "blastoclads" by mycologists. Alternatively, members of Blastocladiomycota, Chytridiomycota, and Neocallimastigomycota lumped together as the zoosporic true fungi. Blastocladiomycota contains 5 families and approximately 12 genera. This early diverging branch of kingdom Fungi is the first to exhibit alternation of generations. As well, two (once) popular model organisms—Allomyces macrogynus and Blastocladiella emersonii—belong to this phylum.
Giacomo Bresadola 14 February 1847 – Trento 9 June 1929) was an eminent Italian mycologist. Fungi he named include the deadly Lepiota helveola and Inocybe patouillardii, though the latter is now known as Inosperma erubescens as this latter description predated Bresadola's by a year. He was a founding member of the Société mycologique de France.
Gyrodon lividus, commonly known as the alder bolete, is a pored mushroom bearing close affinity to the genus Paxillus. Although found predominantly in Europe, where it grows in a mycorrhizal association with alder, it has also recorded from China, Japan and California. Fruit bodies are distinguished from other boletes by decurrent bright yellow pores that turn blue-grey on bruising. G. lividus mushrooms are edible.
Durandiella is a genus of fungi in the family Dermateaceae. The genus contains 10 species.
Diplonaevia is a genus of fungi in the family Dermateaceae. The genus, first described by Italian mycologist Pier Andrea Saccardo in 1888, contains 23 species.
Cudoniella is a genus of fungi in the family Helotiaceae. The genus contains an estimated 30 species. Cudoniella was circumscribed by mycologist Pier Andrea Saccardo in 1889.
Gnomoniaceae is a family of fungi in the order Diaporthales. The family was circumscribed by German botanist Heinrich Georg Winter in 1886.
Gnomonia is a genus of fungi in the family Gnomoniaceae.
Ditopellopsis is a genus of fungi in the family Gnomoniaceae. The genus contains four species.
Cryptodiaporthe is a genus of fungi in the family Gnomoniaceae. The genus contains 24 species.
Clypeoporthe is a genus of fungi in the family Gnomoniaceae. The genus contains four species.
Apiognomonia is a genus of fungi in the family Gnomoniaceae. The genus contains 10 species.
Anisogramma is a genus of fungi in the family Gnomoniaceae. The genus contains three species. One of them, Anisogramma anomala, is the cause of eastern filbert blight.
Ophiognomonia is a genus of fungi in the family Gnomoniaceae.
Mamiania is a genus of fungi in the family Gnomoniaceae. The genus contains three species.
Gnomoniella is a genus of fungi in the family Gnomoniaceae. The genus contains 13 species. Gnomoniopsis is a genus of fungi in the family Gnomoniaceae including:
Wuestneia is a genus of fungi within the Melanconidaceae family.
Coccomyces dentatus is a species of fungus in the family Rhytismataceae. A widespread species, particularly in temperate areas, it colonizes the dead fallen leaves of vascular plants, particularly oak and chestnut. The fungus apothecia, which form in the epidermal layer of the leaf host, resemble dark hexagonal spots scattered on a multi-colored mosaic pattern bounded by thin black lines. When mature, the apothecia open by triangular flaps to release spores. The anamorph form of C. dentatus is Tricladiopsis flagelliformis. Lookalike species can be distinguished by the shape of the apothecia, or by microscopic characteristics.
Carlo Antonio Maria Venturi was an Italian mycologist. In 1842 he published Mycological Studies, in which he described sixty-two species of fungi. In 1845 he published miceti dell'agro bresciano descritti ed illustrati con figure tratte dal vero.
