Harzia is a genus of seed-borne fungus that occurs in the soil. [7] [8] It has been categorized in the Ceratostomataceae family. [9] The genus Harzia originally contained three accepted species: Harzia acremonioides, Harzia verrucose, and Harzia velatea. [7] Within the genus Harzia, Harzia acremonioides is one of the most common species that can be found in all climate regions around the world. [7]

Contents

The genus name of Harzia is in honour of Carl Otto Harz (1842-1906), who was a German mycologist, pharmacist and botanist. [10]

The genus and species Harzia acremonioides, was circumscribed by Julien Noël Costantin in Muced. Simples (Paris) on page 42 in 1888. [11]

Species

As accepted by Species Fungorum; [12]

Growth and morphology

The genus Harzia consists of a hyaline mycelium, a brown thick-walled blastoconidia, and hyaline conidiophores. [7]

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.

<i>Stachybotrys</i> Genus of fungi

Stachybotrys is a genus of molds, hyphomycetes or asexually reproducing, filamentous fungi, now placed in the family Stachybotryaceae. The genus was erected by August Carl Joseph Corda in 1837. Historically, it was considered closely related to the genus Memnoniella, because the spores are produced in slimy heads rather than in dry chains. Recently, the synonymy of the two genera is generally accepted. Most Stachybotrys species inhabit materials rich in cellulose. The genus has a widespread distribution and contained about 50 species in 2008. There are 88 records of Stachybotrys on Species Fungorum, of which 33 species have DNA sequence data in GenBank. Species in the genus are commonly found in soil, plant litter and air and a few species have been found from damp paper, cotton, linen, cellulose-based building materials water-damaged indoor buildings, and air ducts from both aquatic and terrestrial habitats.

Montagnula is a genus of fungi in the family Didymosphaeriaceae. The genus, circumscribed by mycologist Augusto Napoleone Berlese in 1896, contains an estimated 24 species in 2008, but is probably polyphyletic as currently circumscribed. It was originally placed in family Montagnulaceae, before that family was dissolved and it was later placed in family Didymosphaeriaceae, with 34 species.

<i>Venturia</i> (fungus) Genus of fungi

Venturia is a genus of fungi in the family Venturiaceae. First identified in 1882, species in the genus are plant pathogens. Venturia is widespread and the genus contains an estimated 58 species, or 130 species. Anamorphs were historically represented in the genus Fusicladium.

Apiospora is a genus of fungi which cause plant diseases. It gives its name to the family Apiosporaceae, which contains a number of other genera. This is historically a name for the teleomorph (sexual) life-cycle stage of the fungus; for some species the corresponding anamorph name is Arthrinium.

<i>Holwaya</i> Genus of fungi

Holwaya is a genus of fungi in the family Bulgariaceae. Holwaya is monotypic, containing the single species Holwaya mucida, which was originally named Bulgaria ophiobolus by Job Bicknell Ellis in 1883, and later transferred to the newly created Holwaya by Pier Andrea Saccardo in 1889. The genus name of Holwaya is in honour of Edward Willet Dorland Holway (1853-1923), who was an American botanist (Mycology) and Banker.

Myrmecridium is a genus of fungi in the class Sordariomycetes. It was circumscribed in 2007 and is distinguished from similar fungi by having entirely hyaline (translucent) vegetative hyphae and widely scattered, pimple-shaped denticles on the long hyaline rachis. The generic name derives from a combination of the Ancient Greek word "myrmekia", meaning "wart", and the suffix "-ridium" from "Chloridium".
