A conceptual framework for nomenclatural stability and validity of medically important fungi: a proposed global consensus guideline for fungal name changes supported by ABP, ASM, CLSI, ECMM, ESCMID-EFISG, EUCAST-AFST, FDLC, IDSA, ISHAM, MMSA, and MSGERC.
The rapid pace of name changes of medically important fungi is creating challenges for clinical laboratories and clinicians involved in patient care. We describe two sources of name change which have different drivers, at the species versus the genus level. Some suggestions are made here to reduce the number of...de Hoog, Sybren ; Walsh, Thomas J. ; Ahmed, Sarah A. ; Alastruey-Izquierdo, Ana ; Alexander, Barbara D. …

Notes on lichenicolous Pleosporales, with two new species, Didymocyrtis azorica and Pseudopyrenidium epipertusariae (Phaeosphaeriaceae).
The identity and phylogenetic placement of some lichenicolous Pleosporales were studied using morphological and molecular data. Two new species are described, Didymocyrtis azorica on Hypotrachyna rockii, from the Azores, and Pseudopyrenidium epipertusariae on Pertusaria pertusa, from Spain in oceanic montane woods, with a Phoma-like asexual state. This is the second...Etayo, J. ; Pino-Bodas, R.

Akanthomyces zaquensis (Cordycipitaceae, Hypocreales), a new species isolated from both the stroma and the sclerotium of Ophiocordyceps sinensis in Qinghai, China.
An undescribed taxon of entomopathogenic fungi, Akanthomyces zaquensis, was introduced based on the collections from Duoxiao Village beside the Za Qu River in Qinghai Province, China. The taxon is characterized by its host and habitat of isolations from both the stroma and the sclerotium of Ophiocordyceps sinensis and by producing...Wang, Yong-Hui ; Wang, Wen-Jing ; Wang, Ke ; Dong, Cai-Hong ; Hao, Ji-Rong …

Scaling up discovery of hidden diversity in fungi: impacts of barcoding approaches.
The fungal kingdom is a hyperdiverse group of multicellular eukaryotes with profound impacts on human society and ecosystem function. The challenge of documenting and describing fungal diversity is exacerbated by their typically cryptic nature, their ability to produce seemingly unrelated morphologies from a single individual and their similarity in appearance...Diversity, Barcoding, Fungi, Internal transcribed spacer, Taxonomy, and Metabarcoding

Variability, host range, delimitation and neotypification of Amanita simulans (Amanita section Vaginatae): collections associated with Helianthemum grasslands, and epitypification of A. lividopallescens.
Several collections of Amanita species from section Vaginatae have been reported to be strictly associated with Helianthemum plants growing in grasslands, a still largely under-explored ectomycorrhizal habitat. The main aim of this study was to investigate the taxonomic status and phylogenetic position of strictly Helianthemum-associated Amanita sect. Vaginatae taxa, informally...Pluteoid clade, Fungi, Basidiomycota, ITS sequences, Amanita lividopallescens, Biodiversity, Amanita simulans, Taxonomy, Pluteineae, and Amanitaceae
