Polycephalomyces is a genus of fungi in the family Ophiocordycipitaceae.
The following species are recognised in the genus Polycephalomyces:
Cordyceps is a genus of ascomycete fungi that includes about 750 species worldwide, 200 of these species are parasitic. Diverse variants of cordyceps have had more than 1,500 years of use in Chinese medicine. Most Cordyceps species are endoparasitoids, parasitic mainly on insects and other arthropods ; a few are parasitic on other fungi.
The Clavicipitaceae are a family of fungi within the order Hypocreales. A 2008 estimate placed 43 genera in the family, but a study in 2020 has increased this number to 50.
Scorching Sun, Fierce Winds, Wild Fire, also released as Any Which Way You Punch and Dragon Connection, is a 1978 Taiwanese kung fu film starring Angela Mao, Dorian Tan, Chang Yi, and Lo Lieh.
Members of the Monoblepharidomycetes have a filamentous thallus that is either extensive or simple and unbranched. They frequently have a holdfast at the base. In contrast to other taxa in their phylum, some reproduce using autospores, although many do so through zoospores. Oogamous sexual reproduction may also occur.
Metarhizium is a genus of entomopathogenic fungi in the family Clavicipitaceae. With the advent of genetic profiling, placing these fungi in proper taxa has now become possible. Most turn out to be the asexual forms (anamorphs) of fungi in the phylum Ascomycota, including Metacordyceps spp.
Kobayasia is a genus of fungi in the family Phallaceae. It contains the species Kobayasia nipponica(Kobayasi) S.Imai & A.Kawam. and Kobayasia kunmingica M.Zang, K.Tao & X.X.Liu.
Shimizuomyces is a genus of fungi within the family Clavicipitaceae.
Pseudoauricularia is a genus of fungi in the family Agaricaceae. This is a monotypic genus, containing the single species Pseudoauricularia papuana, described as new to science in 1982 by Japanese mycologist Yosio Kobayasi.
Podonectria is a genus in the monotypic Podonectriaceae family of fungi. They are parasitic fungus on scale insects, other fungi, or on substrates that had previously colonized by other fungi.
Holtermannia is a genus of fungi in the order Holtermanniales. Species produce groups of horn-like gelatinous basidiocarps on wood and have associated yeast states. The genus is distributed in southeast Asia and Brazil, and contains six species.
Heliogaster is a sequestrate genus of fungi in the family Boletaceae. This is a monotypic genus, containing the single species Heliogaster columellifer, found in Japan. The genus was first described in 2010, to accommodate the species formerly named Octaviania columellifera by Kobayasi in 1937.
Boninogaster is a genus of fungus in the Hysterangiaceae family. The genus is monotypic, containing the single species Boninogaster phalloides, found in the Bonin Islands of Japan. The genus and species were described by Japanese mycologist Yosio Kobayasi in 1937.
Edwin Butterworth Mains (1890–1968) was an American mycologist. He was known for his taxonomic research on the rust fungi (Pucciniomycetes), the genus Cordyceps, and the earth tongues (Geoglossaceae).
Ophiocordyceps formicarum is an entomopathogenic fungus belonging to the order Hypocreales (Ascomycota) in the family Ophiocordycipitaceae. The fungus was first described by mycologist George S. Kobayashi in 1939 as a species of Cordyceps. Originally found in Japan growing on an adult Hercules ant, it was reported from Guizhou, China, in 2003. It was transferred to the new genus Ophiocordyceps in 2007 when the family Cordycipitaceae was reorganized. A technique has been developed to grow the fungus in an agar growth medium supplemented with yeast extract, inosine, and glucose.
The 1948 Drexel Dragons football team represented the Drexel Institute of Technology as an independent during the 1948 college football season. Ralph Chase was the team's head coach for the first five games of the season, when Maury McMains took over head coaching duties in order to allow Chase to focus on coaching the basketball team.
Hypocrella is a genus of fungi in the family Clavicipitaceae.
Tilachlidium is a genus of fungi in the family Tilachlidiaceae.
Tremella samoensis is a species of fungus in the family Tremellaceae. It produces red to orange-yellow, lobed to firmly foliaceous, gelatinous basidiocarps and is parasitic on other fungi on dead branches of broad-leaved trees. It was originally described from Samoa and the Philippines, but is widely distributed in the region.
