Symbiotic Harpellales (Trichomycetes) in Tasmanian aquatic insects.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Surveys for symbiotic fungi in the guts of aquatic insect larvae (Trichomycetes: Harpellales) in Tasmania, Australia, resulted in the discovery of four new species: two in Gripopterygidae (Plecoptera) nymphs, Plecopteromyces leptoperlarum and P. trinotoperlarum, and two associated with Diptera larvae, Smittium magnosporum in Thaumaleidae and Stachylina dolichospora in Chironomidae. Previously described species of Harpellales from other localities are reported and new host records summarized. A key to all Tasmanian species of Harpellales is provided.

Evolutionary implications of a rRNA-based phylogeny of Harpellales.
The Harpellales (Trichomycetes) are endosymbiotic microfungi, mostly unculturable and predominantly associated with larval aquatic insects worldwide. Molecular phylogenies including 'gut fungi' have included at most only four axenic isolates of the 38 genera of Harpellales. Cladistic analyses were used to infer the phylogeny of the Harpellales using partial 18S or 28S nu-rRNA sequences generate...
متن کاملRibosomal Rna Gene-based and Multigene Phylogenies of Smittium (harpellales) and Allies—toward Unraveling Relationships among Early-diverging Fungi
The Harpellales includes 38 genera of endosymbiotic microfungi associated with various Arthropods. Smittium, the second genus to be described, is now also the most species-rich of the order. Species of Smittium inhabit the digestive tracts of larval aquatic insects, especially lower Diptera, worldwide. During the 75 years since the type, Smittium arvernense, was described, a number of advances ...
متن کاملFungal symbionts (Harpellales) in Norwegian aquatic insect larvae.
Collections of aquatic insect larvae in Norway, over a 40 d period in May and Aug 2002, resulted in finding more than 25 species and one new genus of Harpellales (Trichomycetes). Nine new fungal symbionts are described and named: Ephemerellomyces aquilonius (a new monotypic genus), Glotzia stenospora and Legeriosimilis europaeus in mayfly nymphs (Ephemeroptera); Genistelloides amplispora and G....
متن کاملTwo new Harpellales inhabiting the digestive tracts of midge larvae and other trichomycetes from Tianshan Mountains, China.
Two new taxa of gut fungi within order Harpellales (Kickxellomycotina) are described from a stream in the Tianshan Mountains in northwestern China. These include the new genus and species, Sinotrichium chironomidarum J. Wang, S.Q. Xu & Strongman, and the new species, Stachylina tianensis J. Wang, S.Q. Xu & Strongman, both living in the guts of aquatic chironomid larvae. We also extend the geogr...
متن کاملPhylogeny of the Zygomycota based on nuclear ribosomal sequence data.
The Zygomycota is an ecologically heterogenous assemblage of nonzoosporic fungi comprising two classes, Zygomycetes and Trichomycetes. Phylogenetic analyses have suggested that the phylum is polyphyletic; two of four orders of Trichomycetes are related to the Mesomycetozoa (protists) that diverged near the fungal/animal split. Current circumscription of the Zygomycota includes only orders with ...
