Russulales Order of fungi

The Russulales are an order of the Agaricomycetes,. According to the Dictionary of the Fungi, the order consists of 12 families, 80 genera, and 1767 species. According to Species Fungorum, the order contains 13 families, 117 genera, and 3,060 species.

<i>Junghuhnia</i> Genus of fungi

Junghuhnia is a genus of crust fungi in the family Steccherinaceae. It was circumscribed by Czech mycologist August Carl Joseph Corda in 1842. The generic name honours German-Dutch botanist Franz Wilhelm Junghuhn.

<i>Torrendia</i> Genus of fungi

Torrendia is a genus of agaric fungi in the family Amanitaceae in part defined by being sequestrate. By molecular analyses the genus was shown to be part of Amanita and has now been placed in synonymy with Amanita. The type species, Torrendia pulchella, was first described by Italian mycologist Giacomo Bresadola in 1902, based on material collected in Portugal and sent to him by Camille Torrend. It has been renamed in Amanita as Amanita torrendii.

<i>Copelandia</i> Genus of fungi

Copelandia is a now deprecated genus of mushrooms consisting of at least 12 species. Many American mycologists previously placed members of Panaeolus which stain blue into Copelandia, whilst European mycologists generally used the name Panaeolus instead. Now all mushrooms previously categorised under Copelandia are universally classified in Panaeolus. The genus Copelandia was created as a subgenus of Panaeolus by Abbé Giacomo Bresadola (1847–1929) in honor of Edwin Bingham Copeland (1873–1964), an American who gathered fungi in the Philippines and sent some collections to Bresadola.

<i>Gloeoporus dichrous</i> Species of fungus

Gloeoporus dichrous is a species of fungus in the family Irpicaceae. First described as Polyporus dichrous by Elias Magnus Fries in 1815, it was later transferred to the genus Gloeoporus by Italian mycologist Giacomo Bresadola in 1912. The variety G. dichrous var. niger was proposed in 2008 after molecular analysis revealed the two taxa were conspecific. G. dichrous is inedible.

Giacomo Bresadola Italian mycologist

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.

Skvortzovia is a fungal genus of unknown placement in the class Agaricomycetes. It is a monotypic genus, containing the single species Skvortzovia furfurella, found in the United States. This crust fungus was originally described by Italian mycologist Giacomo Bresadola in 1925 as Odontia furfurella. Bononi and Hjorstam circumscribed Skvortzovia to contain the species in 1987. The genus name honours botanist Boris Skvortzov, who collected crust fungi extensively in Brazil.

<i>Heimioporus</i> Genus of fungi

Heimioporus is a genus of fungi in the family Boletaceae. The genus is widely distributed in tropical and subtropical regions, and contains about 15 species.

<i>Gloiothele</i> Genus of fungi

Gloiothele is a genus of fungi in the Peniophoraceae family. The genus was circumscribed by mycologist Giacomo Bresadola in 1920.

Lepiota helveola is a gilled mushroom of the genus Lepiota in the order Agaricales. It was described by Italian mycologist Giacomo Bresadola in 1882.

<i>Diplomitoporus</i> Genus of fungi

Diplomitoporus is a genus of fungi in the family Polyporaceae. The Dictionary of the Fungi estimated the widespread genus to contain 11 species; since then, the genus has grown with the additional of several newly described species, and some transfers from other genera. Diplomitoporus has been described as a wastebasket taxon, containing "species that share common macroscopic and microscopic characteristics, but are not necessarily related."

Jaapia is a genus in the monotypic family Jaapiaceae and order Jaapiales. The genus was first described by Italian mycologist Giacomo Bresadola in 1911, contains two widely distributed species, J. argillacea and J. ochroleuca.The order was described in 2010. Jaapia is a genus of resupinate species that were until then classified in the order Boletales. Molecular phylogenetics analysis showed it to be a sister group to the rest of the Agaricomycetidae.

<i>Inosperma cookei</i> Species of fungus

Inosperma cookei, commonly known as the straw fibrecap, is a species of mushroom in the family Inocybaceae. It was first described in 1892 by Giacomo Bresadola, and is named in honour of Mordecai Cubitt Cooke. The species is found in Europe, Asia and North America. It produces small mushrooms of an ochre colour, with a prominent umbo, fibres on the cap and a distinctive bulb at the base of the stem. It grows from soil in mixed woodland, and is encountered in summer and autumn, though is not common. Ecologically, it feeds through use of ectomycorrhiza. Inosperma cookei has been described as both toxic and non-toxic, but either way, is not advised for consumption.

<i>Pseudoomphalina kalchbrenneri</i> Species of fungus

Pseudoomphalina kalchbrenneri is a species of fungi in the family Tricholomataceae, and the type species of the genus Pseudoomphalina. Originally described as Omphalia kalchbrenneri by Italian mycologist Giacomo Bresadola, the species was made the type species of the then newly created genus Pseudoomphalina by Rolf Singer in 1958. The fungus is found in North America and Europe.

Neoclitocybe byssiseda is a species of fungus in the family Tricholomataceae, and the type species of the genus Neoclitocybe. Initially described as Omphalia byssiseda by Giacomo Bresadola in 1907, it was transferred to Neoclitocybe by Rolf Singer in 1961. The mushroom is edible.

Clavulina viridula is a species of coral fungus in the family Clavulinaceae. Originally described from Java as Thelephora viridula by Italian mycologist Giacomo Bresadola in 1907, it was transferred to the genus Clavulina by Derek Reid in 1962.

Ramaria strasseri is a species of coral fungus in the family Gomphaceae. First described by Giacomo Bresadola in 1900 as Clavaria strasseri, it was transferred to the genus Ramaria in 1950 by E.J.H. Corner.

<i>Tricholoma sulphurescens</i> Species of fungus

Tricholoma sulphurescens is a mushroom of the agaric genus Tricholoma. It was first formally described by Italian mycologist Giacomo Bresadola in 1905. It is found in Europe and northeastern North America.

<i>Ganoderma megaloma</i> Species of fungus

Ganoderma megaloma is a species of bracket fungus in the family Ganodermataceae. Described as new to science in 1846 by mycologist Joseph-Henri Léveillé, it is found in the eastern and midwestern United States. It was moved into the genus Ganoderma by Giacomo Bresàdola in 1912. The fungus causes white rot and butt rot on living hardwoods. The holotype was collected in New York.

<i>Steccherinum straminellum</i> Species of fungus

Steccherinum straminellum is a toothed crust fungus of the family Steccherinaceae. It was first described by Giacomo Bresadola in 1902 as Odontia straminella. The type collection was made in Portugal by Camille Torrend. After examining the type specimen, Ireneia Melo transferred the species to the genus Steccherinum in 1995.
