- ABSTRACT: A joint private / USA government research team is tracking
fungal species richness in montane Oregon Douglas-fir forests in two different
1998-2003 studies. Target species include all 'epi-ecto' basidiomycetes + 40
other non-ecto species flagged in the US federal Northwest Forest Plan. A
chronosequence study incorporates replicate 200m2 permanent strip transects in
25-, 55-, and 150-year old stands sampled every 2 weeks during fall & spring
fruiting seasons. The density management study comprises adjacent 65-year old
stands thinned in 1999 following 5 different regimes: untreated (~450 trees/ha),
thinned (3 stands with ~300, ~200, or ~100 residual trees/ha), or regeneration-cut
(0 residual trees/ha). During the first 4 years, 280 (chrono) and 211 (density)
target species have been identified from a total of 4,100 collections and 515
total (322 target) species. Agaricales comprise ~70%, Russulales ~20%, Gomphales
~5%, Boletales ~3%, and Cantharellales 1.5% of the target species total.
Cortinariaceae comprise ~84% of the Agaricales; Cortinarius, Inocybe, Russula and
Phaeocollybia represent the most species-rich target genera. After thinning,
density study post / pre-treatment stand species richness ratios were significantly
depressed only in the two most heavily thinned stands. Absence of modern PNW
monographs has dictated frequent identification re-evaluation and led to development
of temporary identification keys based on individual research papers and
extralimital monographs. (See also Projects: BLM)

types. Taxon 50: in press.
- CONTENTS: After recapitulating the often-tortured nomenclatural
history surrounding the Latin names for two conspicuous edible European
craterelles, the authors propose to bring an end to a 200-year long
controversy by conserving the names for Cantharellus lutescens Fr. : Fr.
(> Craterellus lutescens (Fr. : Fr.) Fr.) and Cantharellus tubaeformis
(> Craterellus tubaeformis (Fr.) Quél.) with conserved types. They
propose selecting the types from "two distributed exsiccati collections
that unambiguously represent the two European species to which the epithets
have been applied in the past 50+ years."

"The Eumycota consist of eukaryotic, non-chlorophyllous heterotrophs that
absorb nutrients from dead or living organic matter, have cell walls
composed of chitin, and store excess energy as glycogen. The kingdom
contains four phyla -- Chytridiomycota, Zygomycota, Ascomycota, and

- In 1998, our research team launched two concurrent 5-year species richness
studies of Oregon Douglas-fir forest fungi. Target species included all
"epi-ecto" + 40 flagged "epi-nonecto" basidiomycetes. In the Polk County
chronosequence study, we sample permanent strip transects in 25yo, 55yo, and
150yo stands bi-weekly during the fall/spring fruiting seasons. The Benton
County density management study comprises adjacent 65yo stands thinned in
1999 following 5 different regimes: untreated (~420 trees/ha), thinned (3
stands with ~300, ~200, or ~100 residual trees/ha), or regeneration-cut (0
residual trees/ha). Of 4,050 collections to date, 291 and 227 target species
have been identified from the chrono and density studies respectively, of
which ~70% are Agaricales, ~20% Russulales, ~5% Gomphales, ~3% Boletales, and
~1.5% Cantharellales. The Cortinariaceae comprise ~84% of the Agaricales, and
Cortinarius, Inocybe, and Russula are the most species-rich target genera. In
the density study's 2nd year after treatment, post/pre-treatment species
richness ratios were significantly depressed in the heavily thinned stands yet
surprisingly high in lightly thinned stands. Absence of adequate monographs
has meant frequent re-evaluation of species identifications and led to
development of identification keys based on individual research papers and
extralimital monographs. (See also Projects: BLM)

P. phaeogaleroides and P. rifflipes, with notes on
the P. festiva complex. Mycotaxon 81: 95-112.
- ABSTRACT: Morphological and molecular reevaluation of the
genus Phaeocollybia has uncovered the existence of two new forest
agarics from British Columbia, Washington, Oregon, and California.
Phaeocollybia phaeogaleroides produces small, fragile basidiomes with
large, lightly ornamented, ellipsoid basidiospores, abundant clamp
connections, and a unique fruiting phenology. First revealed during
molecular analyses, Phaeocollybia rifflipes produces small basidiomes
with tawny viscid pilei and lilac-colored lamellae. It shares affinities
with two western species (Phaeocollybia fallax and Phaeocollybia
lilacifolia) with glutinous pilei, lilac lamellae, vertical-monopodial
pseudorhizae, limoniform basidiospores, and thin-walled clavate
cheilocystidia. The close morphological relationship of three western
species to the European Phaeocollybia festiva is discussed. (See also
