چکیده
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 geographic range of Smittium rupestre, previously known only from Australia. A Harpellid specimen not fully identified and a species of Paramoebidium (Amoebidiales) also are documented.

Symbiotic Harpellales (Trichomycetes) in Tasmanian aquatic insects.
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 d...
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 کاملNew primers for detection of Smittium spp. (Trichomycetes, Zygomycota) in insect hosts
The distinctive thalli of trichomycetes can only be isolated from the larval stage of the host. There is a general lack of knowledge on the presence of trichomycetes in other developmental stages of their host. Two new primers, TR3F and TR4R, were designed based on SSU ribosomal DNA sequences from two Harpella species, one Harpellomyces species, four Smittium species and Aedes aegypti (host). T...
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 کاملTrichomycetes from lentic and lotic aquatic habitats in Ontario, Canada
Fungi and protists make up an ecological group, trichomycetes, that inhabit the guts of invertebrates, mostly aquatic insects. Trichomycetes are reported herein from arthropods collected in lotic habitats (fast flowing streams) and lentic environments (ponds, ditches, seeps, and lakes) from 11 sites in Algonquin Park and 6 other sites in Ontario, Canada. Thirty-two trichomycete species were rec...
