Re: Changes to Fungi List

I have a few more, Chris R, Chris J, Christine J (!) which might be convenient to add at the same time.  Mine are from Highland and confirmed by Bruce Ing.

Sphaerulina berberidis
http://www.indexfungorum.org/names/Name … dID=804409

Podosphaera erigerontis-canadensis
http://www.indexfungorum.org/names/Name … dID=568075

Golovinomyces sonchicola
http://www.indexfungorum.org/names/Name … dID=512360

His comments are:

Golovinomyces sonchicola has been separated from G. cichoraceaurum on morphological, ecological and molecular grounds.

Podosphaera fusca is confined to Doronicum and the whole group has been reclassified, P. erigerontis-canadensis is mostly found on Taraxacum and Lapsana.

Septoria berberidis is the imperfect state of Sphaerulina berberidis , which is therefore the correct name to use.

Re: Changes to Fungi List

All done - thanks. I had been waiting for the BMS synchronisation but I am happy to add a few new arrivals because they might not make it to the BMS checklist for a while. :)

Well, I tend to be a bit slow to respond when I get distracted (scoring job applications at the moment) but today I just decided to work through the backlog, so you were lucky ;)
