Thaxterogaster Urbiculus
''Thaxterogaster'' is a genus of fungi in the family Cortinariaceae. Taxonomy The genus was created in 1951 by the German mycologist Rolf Singer to contain the Species nova, novel species ''Thaxterogaster magellanicum'' and ''Thaxterogaster violaceum.'' Several other species were placed in this genus in the subsequent decades but then reclassified as ''Cortinarius'' or ''Descolea'' species. In 2022 the family Cortinariaceae, which previously contained only the one genus of ''Cortinarius'' was reclassified based on genomic data and split into the genera of ''Cortinarius'', ''Aureonarius'', ''Austrocortinarius'', ''Calonarius'', ''Cystinarius'', ''Hygronarius'', ''Mystinarius'', ''Phlegmacium'', ''Thaxterogaster'' and ''Volvanarius''. Numerous ''Cortinarius'' species were transferred into the genus of ''Thaxterogaster'' as a result of this work. The genus is further divided with subgenus and section classifications: * ''Thaxterogaster'' subgenus Cretaces includes the section: ...

Rolf Singer
Rolf Singer (June 23, 1906 – January 18, 1994) was a German mycologist and Taxonomy (biology), taxonomist of gilled mushrooms (agarics). He wrote the book "The Agaricales in Modern Taxonomy (biology), Taxonomy". He fled to various countries during the Nazism, Nazi period, pursuing mycology in the Soviet Union, Argentina, and finally the United States, as mycologist at the Field Museum in Chicago. Career After receiving his Ph.D. at the University of Vienna in 1931 he worked in Munich. By 1933, however, Singer left Germany for Vienna due to the political deterioration in Germany. There he met his wife, Martha Singer. From Vienna, Singer and his wife went to Barcelona, Spain, where Singer was appointed assistant professor at the Autonomous University of Barcelona. Persecution by the Spanish authorities on behalf of the Germany, German government forced Singer to leave Spain for France in 1934. After a fellowship at the Museum d'Histoire Naturelle in Paris, Singer again moved, t ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Volvanarius
''Volvanarius'' is a genus of fungi in the family Cortinariaceae. Taxonomy The genus was created in 2022 when the family Cortinariaceae, which previously contained only the one genus of ''Cortinarius'' was reclassified based on genomic data and split into the genera of ''Cortinarius'', '' Aureonarius'', '' Austrocortinarius'', '' Calonarius'', '' Cystinarius'', '' Hygronarius'', '' Mystinarius'', '' Phlegmacium'', '' Thaxterogaster'' and ''Volvanarius''. The genus is further divided with subgenus classifications: * ''Volvanarius'' subgenus ''Thaumasti.'' * ''Volvanarius'' subgenus ''Volvanarius.'' Etymology The name ''Volvanarius'' derives from the word volva and ''Cortinarius.'' This is in reference to the volva which many species in this genus present with. Species As of January 2023, Species Fungorum ''Index Fungorum'' is an international project to index all formal names (Binomial nomenclature, scientific names) in the fungus Kingdom (biology), kingdom.

Thaxterogaster Argyrionus
''Thaxterogaster argyrionus'' is a species of sequestrate (truffle-like) fungus in the family Cortinariaceae. Described as a new species in 2010, it is known only from New South Wales. Taxonomy The species was first described scientifically by Australian mycologists Melissa Danks, Teresa Lebel, and Karl Verns in a 2010 issue of the journal ''Persoonia''. The type collection was made in Armidale, New South Wales in July 2008. Molecular analysis shows that the species groups in a clade with species in the section ''Purpurascentes'' of the genus ''Cortinarius'', along with the sequestrate '' C. caesibulga'' and '' C. cinereoroseolus'', and the agarics '' C. porphyropus'' and '' C. purpurascens''. The specific epithet ''argyrionus'' is derived from the Ancient Greek word meaning "silvery violet", and refers to the sheen and colour of the fruit bodies. In 2022 the species was transferred from ''Cortinarius'' and reclassified as ''Thaxterogaster argyrionus'' base ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Index Fungorum
''Index Fungorum'' is an international project to index all formal names (scientific names) in the fungus kingdom. As of 2015, the project is based at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, one of three partners along with Landcare Research and the Institute of Microbiology, Chinese Academy of Sciences. It is somewhat comparable to the International Plant Names Index (IPNI), in which the Royal Botanic Gardens is also involved. A difference is that where IPNI does not indicate correct names, the ''Index Fungorum'' does indicate the status of a name. In the returns from the search page, a currently correct name is indicated in green, while others are in blue (a few, aberrant usages of names are indicated in red). All names are linked to pages giving the correct name, with lists of synonyms. ''Index Fungorum'' is one of three nomenclatural repositories recognized by the Nomenclature Committee for Fungi; the others are '' MycoBank'' and '' Fungal Names''. As of 2023, over a millio ...
