Stable detection frequency of the threatened Christmas Island Boobook Ninox natalis, 2012–2022

Both island species and raptors are at particularly high risk of extinction but few island raptor populations have been the subject of long-term monitoring. To determine trends in abundance in the Christmas Island Boobook, surveys were conducted annually from 2012–2017, in 2019 and in 2022. Across the survey period the population appears to have been either stable or to have increased slightly. Almost no part of the island lacked owls during the most recent survey. The detection rate averaged 1.56 (out of four surveys at a site); it was lowest in 2013 (1.22) and highest in 2022 (2.38). Detection was more likely on nights with low wind, at wetter sites and in closed vegetation, rather than in open or very low vegetation. In a separate analysis on the same data, the top-ranked dynamic occupancy-detection model found that occupancy increased with increasing elevation and vegetation height. No effect of a suspected threat, the presence of invasive yellow crazy ants Anoplolepis gracilipes at a site, could be detected. We recommend ongoing monitoring and research, potentially using automated recording devices and the tracking of individual owls to understand and refine the assumptions underpinning the interpretation of survey results

The 2024 Outline of Fungi and fungus-like taxa

With the simultaneous growth in interest from the mycological community to discover fungal species and classify them, there is also an important need to assemble all taxonomic information onto common platforms. Fungal classification is facing a rapidly evolving landscape and organizing genera into an appropriate taxonomic hierarchy is central to better structure a unified classification scheme and avoid incorrect taxonomic inferences. With this in mind, the Outlines of Fungi and fungus-like taxa (2020, 2022) were published as an open-source taxonomic scheme to assist mycologists to better understand the taxonomic position of species within the Fungal Kingdom as well as to improve the accuracy and consistency of our taxonomic language. In this paper, the third contribution to the series of Outline of Fungi and fungus-like taxa prepared by the Global Consortium for the Classification of Fungi and fungus-like taxa is published. The former is updated considering our previous reviews and the taxonomic changes based on recent taxonomic work. In addition, it is more comprehensive and derives more input and consensus from a larger number of mycologists worldwide. Apart from listing the position of a particular genus in a taxonomic level, nearly 1000 notes are provided for newly established genera and higher taxa introduced since 2022. The notes section emphasizes on recent findings with corresponding references, discusses background information to support the current taxonomic status and some controversial taxonomic issues are also highlighted. To elicit maximum taxonomic information, notes/taxa are linked to recognized databases such as Index Fungorum, Faces of Fungi, MycoBank and GenBank, Species Fungorum and others. A new feature includes links to Fungalpedia, offering notes in the Compendium of Fungi and fungus-like Organisms. When specific notes are not provided, links are available to webpages and relevant publications for genera or higher taxa to ease data accessibility. Following the recent synonymization of Caulochytriomycota under Chytridiomycota, with Caulochytriomycetes now classified as a class within the latter, based on formally described and currently accepted data, the Fungi comprises 19 Phyla, 83 classes, 1,220 families, 10,685 genera and ca 140,000 species. Of the genera, 39.5% are monotypic and this begs the question whether mycologists split genera unnecessarily or are we going to find other species in these genera as more parts of the world are surveyed? They are 433 speciose genera with more than 50 species. The document also highlights discussion of some important topics including number of genera categorized as incertae sedis status in higher level fungal classification. The number of species at the higher taxonomic level has always been a contentious issue especially when mycologists consider either a lumping or a splitting approach and herein we provide figures. Herein a summary of updates in the outline of Basidiomycota is provided with discussion on whether there are too many genera of Boletales, Ceratobasidiaceae, and speciose genera such as Colletotrichum. Specific case studies deal with Cortinarius, early diverging fungi, Glomeromycota, a diverse early divergent lineage of symbiotic fungi, Eurotiomycetes, marine fungi, Myxomycetes, Phyllosticta, Hymenochaetaceae and Polyporaceae and the longstanding practice of misapplying intercontinental conspecificity. The outline will aid to better stabilize fungal taxonomy and serves as a necessary tool for mycologists and other scientists interested in the classification of the Fungi

Outline of Fungi and fungus-like taxa

This article provides an outline of the classification of the kingdom Fungi (including fossil fungi. i.e. dispersed spores, mycelia, sporophores, mycorrhizas). We treat 19 phyla of fungi. These are Aphelidiomycota, Ascomycota, Basidiobolomycota, Basidiomycota, Blastocladiomycota, Calcarisporiellomycota, Caulochytriomycota, Chytridiomycota, Entomophthoromycota, Entorrhizomycota, Glomeromycota, Kickxellomycota, Monoblepharomycota, Mortierellomycota, Mucoromycota, Neocallimastigomycota, Olpidiomycota, Rozellomycota and Zoopagomycota. The placement of all fungal genera is provided at the class-, order- and family-level. The described number of species per genus is also given. Notes are provided of taxa for which recent changes or disagreements have been presented. Fungus-like taxa that were traditionally treated as fungi are also incorporated in this outline (i.e. Eumycetozoa, Dictyosteliomycetes, Ceratiomyxomycetes and Myxomycetes). Four new taxa are introduced: Amblyosporida ord. nov. Neopereziida ord. nov. and Ovavesiculida ord. nov. in Rozellomycota, and Protosporangiaceae fam. nov. in Dictyosteliomycetes. Two different classifications (in outline section and in discussion) are provided for Glomeromycota and Leotiomycetes based on recent studies. The phylogenetic reconstruction of a four-gene dataset (18S and 28S rRNA, RPB1, RPB2) of 433 taxa is presented, including all currently described orders of fungi

Materiały do rozmieszczenia porostów i grzybów naporostowych Tatrzańskiego Parku Narodowego

New data about the occurrence of 25 species of rare lichens and 3 lichenicolous fungi in the Tatra National Park (Western Carpathians) are provided. Of these species, Fellhaneropsis vezdae is recorded for the first time from the whole Tatra Mts. andVezdaea stipitatais new to the Polish Tatra Mts. The distribution of the species in the Tatra National Park is indicated.Tatry stanową największą osobliwość przyrodniczą Karpat Zachodnich. Są jednym z centrów różnorodności gatunkowej, jak również miejscem występowania rzadkich arktyczno-alpejskich gatunków w Europie. Obecnie znanych jest z tego pasma 1250 gatunków porostów i 87 gatunków związanych z nimi grzybów naporostowych oraz saprobiontów (Lisická 2005). Mimo to, wiedza dotycząca lichenobioty Tatr jest wciąż niekompletna i wymaga dalszych systematycznych badań. W pracy przedstawiono nowe stanowiska 25 rzadkich gatunków porostów i 3 grzybów naporostowych z Tatrzańskiego Parku Narodowego wraz z ich rozmieszczeniem na tym obszarze (Figs 1–9). Fellhaneropsis vezdaejest gatunkiem nowym dla polskiej części Karpat i jednocześnie dla całego pasma Tatr, a Vezdaea stipitata – dla Tatr Polskich
