Marcelleina Georgii
''Marcelleina'' is a genus of fungi within the Pezizaceae family. The genus was circumscribed in 1967. The genus name of ''Marcelleina'' is in honour of Marcelle Louise Fernande Le Gal (1895-1979), who was a French mycologist and lichenologist. Species According to a standard reference text, ''Marcelleina'' is widespread in distribution and contains nine species; two new species were since published in 2010 and 2011. *''Marcelleina atroviolacea'' *''Marcelleina benkertii'' *''Marcelleina brevicostatispora'' *''Marcelleina chopraiana'' *''Marcelleina donadinii'' *''Marcelleina georgii'' *''Marcelleina mediterranea'' *''Marcelleina parvispora'' *''Marcelleina persoonii'' *''Marcelleina pseudoanthracina'' *''Marcelleina rickii'' *''Marcelleina tuberculispora'' References Pezizaceae Pezizales genera Taxa named by Richard P.

Fungi
A fungus ( : fungi or funguses) is any member of the group of eukaryotic organisms that includes microorganisms such as yeasts and molds, as well as the more familiar mushrooms. These organisms are classified as a kingdom, separately from the other eukaryotic kingdoms, which by one traditional classification include Plantae, Animalia, Protozoa, and Chromista. A characteristic that places fungi in a different kingdom from plants, bacteria, and some protists is chitin in their cell walls. Fungi, like animals, are heterotrophs; they acquire their food by absorbing dissolved molecules, typically by secreting digestive enzymes into their environment. Fungi do not photosynthesize. Growth is their means of mobility, except for spores (a few of which are flagellated), which may travel through the air or water. Fungi are the principal decomposers in ecological systems. These and other differences place fungi in a single group of related organisms, named the ''Eumycota'' (''t ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
