Exidia Cartilaginea
''Exidia'' is a genus of fungi in the family Auriculariaceae. The species are saprotrophic, occurring in attached or recently fallen dead wood, and produce gelatinous basidiocarps (fruit bodies). The fruit bodies are diverse, pustular, lobed, button-shaped or cup-shaped. Several species, including the type species ''Exidia glandulosa'', have sterile pegs or pimples on their spore-bearing surface. The genus has a cosmopolitan distribution and around 20 species are currently recognized worldwide. Initial molecular research indicates the genus is artificial. Taxonomy ''Exidia'' species were originally placed in the genus ''Tremella'' along with many other gelatinous fungi. The genus ''Exidia'' was separated from ''Tremella'' by Fries in 1822, based mainly on fruit body shape. Fries initially included species now assigned to ''Auricularia'' within the genus. Recent molecular research has indicated that ''Exidia'' as currently circumscribed is an artificial grouping, the species not ...

Elias Magnus Fries
Elias Magnus Fries (15 August 1794 – 8 February 1878) was a Swedish mycologist and botanist. Career Fries was born at Femsjö (Hylte Municipality), Småland, the son of the pastor there. He attended school in Växjö. He acquired an extensive knowledge of flowering plants from his father. In 1811 Fries entered Lund University where he obtained a doctorate in 1814. In the same year he was appointed an associate professorship in botany. He was elected a member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences, and in 1824, became a full professor. In 1834 he became Borgström professor (Swed. ''Borgströmianska professuren'', a chair endowed by Erik Eriksson Borgström, 1708–1770) in applied economics at Uppsala University. The position was changed to "professor of botany and applied economics" in 1851. He was elected a Foreign Honorary Member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 1849. That year he was also appointed director of the Uppsala University Botanica ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Sterigmata
In biology, a sterigma (pl. sterigmata) is a small supporting structure. It commonly refers to an extension of the basidium (the spore-bearing cells) consisting of a basal filamentous part and a slender projection which carries a spore at the tip. The sterigmata are formed on the basidium as it develops and undergoes meiosis, to result in the production of (typically) four nuclei. The nuclei gradually migrate to the tips of the basidium, and one nucleus will migrate into each spore that develops at the tip of each sterigma. In less common usage, a sterigma is a structure within the posterior end of the genitalia of female Lepidoptera. It also refers to the stem-like structure, also called a "woody peg" at the base of the leaves of some, but not all conifers, specifically ''Picea'' and ''Tsuga ''Tsuga'' (, from Japanese (), the name of ''Tsuga sieboldii'') is a genus of conifers in the subfamily Abietoideae of Pinaceae, the pine family. The common name hemlock is derived ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Exidia Recisa
''Exidia recisa'' (common name willow brain or amber jelly roll) is a jelly fungus in the family Auriculariaceae. It is a common, wood-rotting species throughout the northern hemisphere, typically growing on dead attached twigs and branches of willow and other broadleaf trees. Taxonomy The species was originally found growing on willow in Germany and was described in 1813 by L.P.F. Ditmar as ''Tremella recisa''. It was transferred to the genus ''Exidia'' by Fries in 1822. ''Tremella salicum'' (the epithet means "of willow") has long been considered a synonym. The epithet "recisa" means "cut-off", with reference to the shape of the fruit bodies. Description ''Exidia recisa'' forms orange-brown or amber, gelatinous fruit bodies that are firm and shallowly conical at first, becoming lax and pendulous with age, and around 2.5 cm (1 in) across. The fruit bodies typically grow gregariously, but do not normally coalesce. The upper, spore-bearing surface is smooth and shiny ...

Exidia Nigricans
''Exidia nigricans'' (common name Witches' butter) is a jelly fungus in the family Auriculariaceae. It is a common, wood-rotting species throughout the northern hemisphere, typically growing on dead attached branches of broadleaf trees. It has been much confused with ''Exidia glandulosa''. Taxonomy The species was originally described from England as ''Tremella nigricans'' by William Withering, Withering in 1776, based on a phrase name published by Dillenius in 1741. It was subsequently considered a synonym of ''Exidia glandulosa'', until Marinus Anton Donk, Donk revised species concepts in 1966 and placed it in synonymy with ''Exidia plana''. Changes in the starting point for fungal nomenclature has made ''Exidia plana'' illegitimate, however, leaving ''Exidia nigricans'' as the earliest name for the species.Roberts, P. (2009). ''Exidia nigricans'': a new and legitimate name for ''Exidia plana''. ''Mycotaxon'' 109: 219–220. Molecular research has shown that ''Exidia glandulo ...
