We describe three new fungicolous species on the basis of phenotypic and phylogenetic differences from known species. Penicillium thiersii, P. angulare and Penicillium decaturense are described. Penicillium thiersii phenotypically is identified on the basis of several characteristics including growth rates, vesicle size and condium shape and roughening. Penicillium angulare is related most clos...

Dr Ágnes Révay (1952–2018) a respected mycologist, the curator of microscopic fungi collection Hungarian Natural History Museum was interested predominantly in floristics, taxonomy and ecology fungi, especially dematiaceous aquatic hyphomycetes, stauro- scolecosporous myxomycetes. More than 70 scientific papers, her revisions collections, four new genera (Gorgomyces, Hyalocamposporium, Hydromet...

fungal conidia and spores are among various organisms found in the air, causing different types of mycoses. in this study (from february 1994 until march 1995) fungal spores and conidia were collected by their settlement on to petri - dishes from 33 locations in babol city during 4 seasons. plates of sabouraud dextrose agar were laid 1.5 m. from the ground and then sent to mycology laboratory w...

Larvae of Aedes aegypti, Ae. vexans and Culiseta inornata were used to study the pathogenicity of the hyphomycete fungus Tolypocladium cylindrosporum. Experiments consisted of continuous exposure of second-instar larvae to 5 concentrations of conidia at 10, 15, 20 and 25 degrees C. The 3 test species were susceptible at all temperatures tested. There was generally a direct relationship between ...

Aquatic hyphomycetes strongly contribute to organic matter dynamics in streams, but their abilities to colonize leaf litter buried in streambed sediments remain unexplored. Here, we conducted field and laboratory experiments (slow-filtration columns and stream-simulating microcosms) to test the following hypotheses: (i) that the hyporheic habitat acting as a physical sieve for spores filters ou...
