The authors describe the macro- and microscopic features of Inocybe cervenianensis, a new taxon belonging to the genus Inocybe sensu stricto. The description is illustrated with photographs of the basidiomes in their natural habitat and photographs of the main microscopic features. Molecular data (nrITS and RPB2) support the recognition of this new species.

Seventeen taxa of microfungi growing on Dryas are recorded from Greenland based on 147 collections. Five of them are new to the archipelago, <em>Lophium igoschinae</em> Chlebicki sp. nov, is described as a new species, the other four being: <em>Crocicreas variabile</em>, <em>Gnomonia dryadis</em>, <em>Naemacyclus lambertii</em> var. <em>diyadis</em>, <em>Pseudomassaria islandica</em> and <em>Stomiopeltis diyadis</em>. Short descriptions and drawings of diagnostic microscopic features are presented. <em>Lophiostoma macrostomum</em>, <em>Phueosphaeria vagans</em>, <em>Pleospora pentumera</em> and <em>Scleropleella hyperborea</em> were not previously reported on Dryas from Greenland. Specimens of <em>Stictis mollis</em> reported by Rostrup (1891) in fact belongs to <em>Naemacyclus lambertii</em> var. <em>diyadis</em>.

Psathyrella alpina sp. nov. is described as a new species from Yunnan and Jiangxi Province, China. This species is distinctive due to its median-size basidiospores, fusiform to lageniform pleurocystidia and special pileipellis which consists of vesiculose cells, covered by a 1 cells deep layer of hyphae. It is also unique compared to related Psathyrella species in phylogenetic analysis of ITS sequences. Detailed illustrations, field photographs and microscopic features of basidiomata are provided in this paper.

A new species of Argyreia (Convolvulaceae) from Thailand is described and illustrated: A. albiflora. The morphological distinctions of this new species and its relationships with allied species are discussed. Micromorphological evidence is presented using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and light microscopy (LM) demonstrating that microscopic features of the upper leaf surface are useful in separating species that are similar on a macromorphological level.

Ripersiella emarai is described from Ficus cyathistipula Warburg, Ficus lyrata Warburg and Dieffenbachia sp. from Dutch greenhouses. The immature stages are described based on microscopic features and a key to the stages is provided for their separation. This species description is actuated by the necessity to distinguish the new species from the root mealybug Ripersiella hibisci (Kawai & Takagi), which is occasionally imported and shares host plants with the new species. An identification key to adults of the Dutch greenhouse species and species intercepted during import inspections based on microscopic morphological characters is given. A key to distinguish the nymphal stages is provided and keys are given to the identification of first, second and third instar nymphs of Ripersiella multiporifera Jansen, R. hibisci (Kawai & Takagi) and R. emarai Jansen. Rhizoecus advenoides Takagi & Kawai, 1971 is found to be a junior synonym of Rh. amorphophalli Betrem, 1940.

The authors describe the macro-, microscopic and ecological features of Pluteus bizioi, a new taxon belonging to the genus Pluteus Fr. The species was found on alluvial soil, in an area close to the bank of the Isonzo (Soca) river where trunks and branches of willows had been stacked. This taxon is characterized by a brown pileus with dark brown or blackish scales, utriform cheilocystidia and the presence of pleurocystidia and caulocystidia. The description is illustrated with photographs of the basidiomata in habitat and photographs of the main microscopic features. Molecular data (nrITS) support the recognition of this new species.

Inocybe messapica sp. nov., collected in Apulia (Italy) under Quercus coccifera and Quercus ilex, is presented with description, colour photographs, and line-drawings of the microscopic features. This species is proposed as new based on both morphology and molecular phylogenetic analysis. It is characterized by the stout habit, a dark castaneous brown pileus covered with a whitish velipellis, a non-marginate bulbous stipe base, and smooth amygdaliform spores. A comparison of I. messapica with I. athenana and similar species is also provided.

Austroboletusbrunneisquamus (Boletaceae/Boletales), an ectomycorrhizal fungus, is described as a new species from a tropical rainforest in China based on morphological and molecular evidence. It is morphologically characterized by a subtomentose pileal surface when young, which cracks into areolae, having large, pale brown and brown to dark brown scales, a stipe with yellowish brown reticulation, basidiospores measuring (11–)12–14.5(–15) × 6–8(–8.5) μm, with fine cristate to subreticulate ornamentation, and a pileipellis in the form of a cutis. A detailed description, color photographs of fresh basidiomata, and line drawings of microscopic features of the new species are presented.
