Polycoccum Laursenii
''Polycoccum laursenii'' is a species of lichenicolous fungus in the family Polycoccaceae. It was first described as a new species in 2004 by Russian mycologist Mikhail Petrovich Zhurbenko. It is found in Alaska and in Russia. It is similar to '' Polycoccum cladoniae'' but differs from it in having smaller spores. Ecology ''Polycoccum laursenii'' is a lichenicolous fungus, meaning that it infects lichens. Its only documented host species is ''Cladonia pocillum ''Cladonia pocillum'' is a species of lichen in the family Cladoniaceae.

Cladonia Pocillum
''Cladonia pocillum'' is a species of lichen in the family Cladoniaceae. Swedish botanist Erik Acharius first formally described the species in 1803 as ''Baeomyces pocillum'', but Olivier Jules Richard transferred it to the genus ''Cladonia'' in 1877. Ecology ''Cladonia pocillum'' is host to numerous species of lichenicolous fungi. These include: * '' Arthonia epicladonia'' * '' Bachmanniomyces uncialicola'' * '' Cercidospora cladoniicola'' * '' Cercidospora punctillata'' * '' Dactylospora deminuta'' * '' Epicladonia sandstedei'' * '' Epicladonia simplex'' * '' Epicladonia stenospora'' * ''Lichenoconium pyxidatae'' * '' Lichenocsticta alcicornaria'' * '' Phaeosporobolus alpinus'' * ''Phoma'' sp. * '' Polycoccum laursenii'' * '' Pronectria tibellae'' * '' Protothelenella santessonii'' * '' Rinodina egedeana'' * '' Roselliniella cladoniae'' * '' Sphaerellothecium araneosum'' var.

Fungi Of The United States
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'' (''true fun ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
