The Lactifluus clarkeae complex is a commonly observed, generally brightly coloured, group of mushrooms that are usually associated with Nothofagus or Myrtaceous hosts in Australia and New Zealand. For this study collections labelled as ‘ Lactarius ’, Russula flocktoniae ’ subclarkeae were examined morphologically molecularly. Analyses molecular data showed high cryptic diversity, sequences sca...

Abstract Bryophytes, which include mosses, liverworts and hornworts, indeed play a significant role in the natural dynamics of native forests. They contribute to fundamental ecological processes such as tree regeneration. In this context, objective was analyse association bryophytes with Nothofagus seedlings, well whether substrates where grew influenced bryophyte‐tree seedling association, sub...
