Butyrea
''Butyrea'' is a genus of two species of crust fungi in the family Steccherinaceae. Taxonomy The genus was circumscribed by Finnish mycologist Otto Miettinen in 2016 with '' Butyrea luteoalba'' as the type species. This fungus was originally described as ''Physisporus luteoalbus'' by Petter Karsten in 1887. The generic name, derived from the Latin word ''butyrum'' ("butter"), refers to the oil-containing cells (gloeocystidia) that are characteristic of the genus. Description ''Butyrea'' species are poroid with annual, yellowish, crust-like basidiocarps and minute pores numbering 4–8 per millimetre. The hyphal system is dimitic, containing both generative hyphae (with clamps) and skeletal hyphae. The skeletal hyphae are moderately cyanophilous (with cell walls that absorb cotton blue stain), narrow and sinuous, measuring mostly less than 2.5 µm wide with a distinct lumen that is 1/3–1/2 of the width. Two types of cystidia are present: there are thin-walled gloeocysti ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
