Hyaloscyphaceae in Japan (1): Non-glassy-haired members of the tribe Hyaloscypheae

Abstract

Discomycetes of the family Hyaloscyphaceae were collected from across Japan and identified. In this report, non-glassy-haired members of the tribe Hyaloscypheae, subfamily Hyaloscyphoideae are described and illustrated. The five species involved include one new species (Phialina lacrimiformis) and four species less well known or newly reported in Japan (Dematioscypha dematiicola, Hamatocanthoacypha laricionis var. laricionis, Micropodia chrysostigma, M. grisella). Cultural studies were carried out, and teleomorph-anamorph relationships are discussed for D, dematiicola, H. laricionis var. laricionis and their anamorphs. A key to the genera of the tribe Hyaloseypheae in Japan is provided.
