COLLYBIOID FUNGI (AGARICALES, TRICHOLOMATACEAE) IN IRANIAN PARTS OF THE CAUCASUS
Abstract
part of the Caucasus (in the north and north-western part of
Iran) is insufficiently studied, we present detailed information
on the distribution of collybioid fungi, which belong to agaricales.
It is established that the Iranian part of the Caucasus
offers six species of basidiomycetes [Collybia ocellata (Fr.) P.
Kumm., Collybia tuberosa (Bull.) P. Kumm., Gymnopus confluens
(Pers.) Antonín, Gymnopus dryophilus (Bull.) Murrill,
Gymnopus erythropus (Pers.) Antonín., and Rhodocollybia
prolixa var. distorta (Fr.) Antonín], which belong to collybioid
fungi. All the species are characterized by macroscopic
(shape, color, and basidioma size) and microscopic (shape
and basidiospore size) features, which differ only in quantitative
terms. It is established that C. ocellata is a new species
for micobiota inherent in Iran.
