Podosordaria venezuelensis (Ascomycotina, Xylariaceae) is described and illustrated. It is characterized by the long-stalked, glabrous stromata, ascospore shape and size, and germ slit length, differing from morphologically similar taxa in spore morphology and distribution. A key to all currently accepted species of this fungal genus is provided. Key words: Podosordaria, Xylariaceae, coprophilous, taxonomy, Venezuela.

The taxonomy and ecology of the fungal genus Bombardioidea (Ascomycotina, Lasiosphaeriaceae) are discussed. Descriptions and illustrations are provided for the four accepted species: Bombardioidea anartia n.sp., Bombardioidea bombardioides, Bombardioidea serignanensis, and Bombardioidea stercoris. Observations from axenic culture are provided for B. bombardioides, and an Angulimaya (Phialophora-like) anamorph is reported. The coriaceous and gelatinous aspects of the peridium are considered to be adaptations to xerophytic environments. Key words: Bombardioidea, Angulimaya, Phialophora, coprophilous, ecology, taxonomy.

The taxonomy and phylogenetic relationships of the fungal genus Fimetariella (Ascomycotina, Lasiosphaeriaceae) are discussed. A revised generic description and key are presented. Descriptions and illustrations are provided for all taxa. Fimetariella dunarum n.comb. and Fimetariella apotoma, Fimetariella brachycaulina, Fimetariella dolichopoda, Fimetariella macromischa, Fimetariella microsperma, and Fimetariella tetraspora n.spp. are proposed. A phialidic anamorph resembling Cladorrhinum is reported for F. microsperma. The ascospores of the type species Fimetariella rabenhorstii are considered to possess two terminal germ pores, one large pore and one very small pore, along with several small, apparently nonfunctional pores. A key to the genera with these minor pores is included. Key words: Fimetariella, Cladorrhinum, coprophilous, fungi, keys, taxonomy.

Ornitophera sp. is one of the groups of butterflies endemic in Papua and West Papua provinces. The significant morphological differences between male and female butterflies (dimorphism) are in the shape, size and color of the wings. Morphological characteristics are important sources of information. Based on the results of specimen collections at the Papua Insect Collection Laboratory (KSP) Jayapura, there are several species from various locations in Papua. The variation in dimorphism is likely to occur in this species which gives rise to new sub-species. The purpose of this study was to record the dimorphism of the endemic Bird Wing of Papua which had been stored in the Papua Insect Collection Laboratory (KSP) Jayapura. The method used is a direct measurement of the morphology of bird wing butterfly specimens stored in the KSP Laboratory, Cenderawasih University. Morphometric data were analyzed using the SPSS 20 and Multi Variate Statistical Package (MVSP 3.1) programs. The results obtained were 7 Ornithoptera species stored in the KSP Jayapura Laboratory, namely O. chiamera, O. goliath, O. meridionalis, O. paradisea, O. priamus, O. thitonus and O. rothschildi. Based on observations there are striking differences in color, shape and size between male and female in the same species.   Key words: birdwing butterfly, Ornithoptera sp., KSP Jayapura, dimorphisme.

Pigeon pea (Cajanus cajan) is one of the biodiversity of Kisar Island, Maluku Barat Daya (MBD). This study aimed to determine the number and size of chromosomes from pigeon pea (C. cajan) from Kisar Island, MBD. The method used for chromosome observation is the squashing method, while for the analysis of the shape and size of chromosomes using the picsart and image raster applications. Data analysis using descriptive analysis with the help of figures and tables. The results showed that the chromosome number of three varieties of pigeon pea (C. cajan) was 2n = 14. The longest chromosome is owned by orange seed varieties that are 9.17 µm, batik color seed varieties are 9.09 μm, the shortest chromosomes are owned by black seed varieties of 8.32 µm. The chromosome length of the three varieties of pigeon pea (C. cajan) varies showing different genome numbers.   Key words: Chromosome; Cajanus cajan; Kisar Island; Maluku Barat Daya.

Abstract The taxonomy and ecology of Cortinarius subgenus Myxacium section Colliniti in Fennoscandia is treated. Most species of this group have their optima in oligotrophic habitats, and play an important role in upper boreal and Arctic-alpine regions. Variation in spore morphology is subjected to numerical treatment. Relevant nomenclatural types and protologues for classical names are examined. Presence of clamp connections is stated to be an important diagnostic character towards the most closely related section, Defibulati. Also, SEM pictures have revealed a significant difference in the spore ornamentation between the two groups. Spore shape and size provide important diagnostic characters for separation of the different taxa of section Colliniti, as shown by scattergrams. The most distinctive species in this respect are found to be C. mucosus, with characteristically narrow spores, and C. collinitus with larger spores. The species concept within the group is discussed. Seven Fennoscandian species are recognized and their taxonomy and ecology are discussed. C. septentrionalis (type from Norway) and C. fennoscandicus (type from Finland) are described as new. Both species are common in upper (northern) boreal mountain birch (Betula) woodlands and under the low shrub Betula nana in the low alpine and arctic zones. The status of Agaricus collinitus Sow: Fries is discussed in more detail.

Allantomyces caenidarum sp.nov., a trichomycete fungus that lives in the hindgut of Tasmanocoenis sp. (Caenidae) mayfly nymphs in southwestern Western Australian streams, is described. In addition to normal trichospores and zygospores that serve to reinfest other nymphs, A. caenidarum also produces what may be modified trichospores that serve to increase gut infestation endogenously. The same species of mayfly also harbored a new species, Legeriomyces raus, which belongs to a genus previously known only from North America and Europe. Key words: Caenidae, Allantomyces, Australia, Tasmanocoenis, Trichomycetes, Legeriomyces.

The pore spaces in sandstones are the result of the original depositional fabric and the degree of post-depositional alteration that the rock has experienced. The largest pore volumes are present in coarse-grained, well-sorted materials with high sphericity. The chief mechanisms which alter the shape and size of the pores are precipitation of cementing agents and the dissolution of soluble components. Each process may operate alone or in combination with the other, or there may be several generations of cementation and solution.The scanning electron microscope has ‘been used in this study to reveal the morphology of the pore spaces in a variety of moderate porosity, orthoquartzites.

Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) are the most common mesenchymal tumors of the digestive tract (1%). These tumors express the CD 117 in 95% of cases. The stomach is the preferential localization (70%). Diagnosis is difficult and sometimes late. Progress of imaging has greatly improved the management and the prognosis. Computed tomography (CT) is the gold standard for diagnosis, staging, and treatment follow-up. The increasing recognition of GIST’s histopathology and the prolonged survival revealed some suggestive imaging aspects. Key words: gastro-intestinal stromal tumors; computed tomography; diagnosis
