Corynespora aquatica. [Descriptions of Fungi and Bacteria].

Author(s):

Abstract A description is provided for Corynespora aquatica. This fungus has been observed on decaying leaves submerged in a freshwater stream, in undisturbed rain forest. It is presumably a saprobe for at least part of its life cycle, but nothing else is known about its relation with associated plants. Some information on its dispersal and transmission and conservation status is given, along with details of its geographical distribution (North America (Mexico)).

Abstract A description is provided for Anthostomella scotina. Some information on its dispersal and transmission and conservation status is given, along with details of its geographical distribution (Africa (Algeria), Asia (India, Uttar Pradesh), Europe (Belgium, France, Italy, UK), North America (USA, California), South America (Argentina, Chile)) and habitats. Some members of Anthostomella are endobionts for part of their life cycle, but for the present species the time of substratum colonization and nutritional relations with the associated plants (including Scirpus lacustris) have not been established.

Abstract A description is provided for Bactrospora homalotropa, found on tree trunks and branches, and woody twigs of shrubs, almost always on species with smooth, relatively basic bark. Some information on its associated organisms and substrata, habitat, dispersal and transmission, and conservation status is given, along with details of its geographical distribution (North America (USA (Maine, West Virginia)), Asia (Iran), Atlantic Ocean (Portugal (Azores, Madeira), Spain (Canary Islands)), Australasia (Australia (Tasmania)), Europe (Ireland, Norway, UK)). This species is routinely used in the British Isles as an indicator when making ecological assessments, specifically as an indicator of ecological continuity, particularly in the west of Ireland and the west of Scotland, and of oceanic and temperate rain forest.

Abstract A description is provided for Anthostomella lugubris. Some information on its dispersal and transmission and conservation status is given, along with details of its geographical distribution (Atlantic Ocean (Spain, Islas Canarias), Europe (Austria, Belgium, Denmark, France, Ireland, Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, UK), North America (USA, Florida), South America (Chile)) and habitats. Some members of Anthostomella are endobionts for part of their life cycle, but for the present species the time of substratum colonization and nutritional relations with the associated plants (including Ammophila arenaria) have not been established.

Abstract A description is provided for Helensiella rigidophora, which has been recorded on dead and decaying rachis of an unidentified palm. It is presumably a saprobe for at least part of its life cycle, but nothing else is known about its relation with associated plants. Some information on its dispersal and transmission and conservation status is given, along with details of its geographical distribution (North America (Mexico)).

Abstract A description is provided for Anthostomella caricis. Some information on its dispersal and transmission and conservation status is given, along with details of its geographical distribution (Europe (Spain, UK), North America (USA, North Carolina)) and habitats. Some members of Anthostomella are endobionts for part of their life cycle, but for the present species the time of substratum colonization and nutritional relations with the associated plant (Carex pendula) have not been established.

Abstract A description is provided for Anthostomella appendiculosa. Some information on its dispersal and transmission and conservation status is given, along with details of its geographical distribution (Asia (Georgia), Atlantic Ocean (Spain, Islas Canarias), Europe (France, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, UK), North America (USA), South America (Argentina)) and habitats. Some members of Anthostomella are endobionts for part of their life cycle, but for the present species the time of substratum colonization and nutritional relations with the associated plant (Rubus fruticosus) have not been established.

Abstract A description is provided for Anthostomella chionostoma. Some information on its dispersal and transmission and conservation status is given, along with details of its geographical distribution (Africa (Algeria), Asia (India, Uttar Pradesh), Australasia (Australia, Victoria), Europe (France, Italy, Spain, Switzerland, UK), North America (USA, New Jersey), South America (Venezuela)) and associated organisms and substrata. No specific information was found about habitats of this species, but they are likely to include grassland, freshwater, margins and woodland. Some members of Anthostomella are endobionts for part of their life cycle, but for the present species the time of substratum colonization and nutritional relations with the associated plant have not been established.

Abstract A description is provided for Mycosphaerella oxyacanthae, which sometimes causes lesions on leaves of Crataegus laevigata. Some information on its dispersal and transmission and conservation status is given, along with details of its geographical distribution (North America (USA), Asia (Armenia, Azerbaijan, China, Georgia, India, Iran, Kazakhstan, Kirgizstan [Kyrgyzstan], Russia, Turkey, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan), Europe (Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Germany, Great Britain, Hungary, Italy, Latvia, Norway, Portugal, Romania, Russia (Astrakhan oblast, Kursk oblast, Saratov oblast, Stavropolskyi krai, Voronezh oblast), Sweden, Switzerland and Ukraine)) and hosts (Phoma macrostoma, Crataegus ambigua, C. beckeriana, C. chlorocarpa, C. curvisepala [syn. C. kyrtostyla], C. laevigata [syn. C. oxyacantha], C. macracantha, C. microphylla, C. mollis, C. monogyna, C. pinnatifida, C. remotilobata, C. sanguinea, C. songarica [C. songorica], C. volgensis, and Crataegus sp.).

Abstract A description is provided for Lophiostoma macrostomoides (Thyridaria macrostomoides), which is considered to be a saprobic fungus, colonizing dead bark and lignum tissues. Some information on its dispersal and transmission and conservation status is given, along with details of its geographical distribution (North America (Canada, Ontario), USA (Colorado, Iowa, Kansas, Massachusetts, Michigan, Montana, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Utah, Vermont), Asia (China, Xinjiang, Iran, Pakistan), Europe (Austria, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Lithuania, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Russia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, UK)). L. macrostomoides is reported primarily from dead (decorticated) wood and bark of Populus and Salix species, and recorded more rarely from other woody substrata.

Abstract A description is provided for Anthostomella arenaria. Some information on its dispersal and transmission and conservation status is given, along with details of its geographical distribution (Europe (Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Norway, Sweden and UK)) and habitats. This species has been recorded from coastal dunes and grasslands. Some members of Anthostomella are endobionts for part of their life cycle, but for the present species the time of substratum colonization and nutritional relations with the associated plant (Leymus arenarius) have not been established.
