Six taxa of the genus Flammulina were recorded in Europe. In Slovakia only 3 taxa have been reported untill now: F. velutipes, F. fennae and F. velutipes f. longispora. According to our preliminary research two additional species are present in Slovakia: F. ononidis and one undescribed taxon. Because recent taxonomical studies have not included data from Central Europe new information for delimitation of taxa (studying Central European specimens by molecular methods), as well for better knowledge of the chorology and ecology of members in Flammulina is expected.
Goals of the project:- Revision and analysis of voucher specimens with special emphasis to current taxonomic concepts
- Evaluation of discriminative characters in the genus
- Assigment of additional discriminative characters
- Revision and analysis of type specimens of Central European taxa
- Weighting of taxonomic value of characters of a new morphotype recorded in Slovakia
- Determination of dominat Central European taxa and their biogeography
Material and cultures of the genus Flammulina was collected during field excursions in Slovakia and this sampling was improved by observations on loaned herbarium material from other herbaria in Slovakia, Czech republic, Austria and Germany. Five species in total was observed in area of Central Europe, among them one new for central Europe and two new for Slovakia. Spore print of fresh basidiocarps was cultivated in order to obtain monosporic isolates. The cultures was sent to partner institution in USA (University of Tenesee, Knoxville) for molecular studies. All herbarium material was preliminary determined and a measurements of 9 micromophological characters was sumarised in a data matrix. The data were compared by standart statistical programs and particular specimens were classified to morphological gruops. Several resulted morphological gruops fall within variability of two species, F. elastica and F. velutipes, according to results of analyses of ITS region rDNA. Our next studies will concentrate to establishing of values and morphotypes, that certaintly delimit these two species.

Results of the project:
Complex study aimed at diversity, taxonomy, chorology and ecology of phytopathogenic fungi and their host
plants was carried out in International Biosphere Reserve Tatras National Park. Historical knowledge and new
information on distribution of 310 taxa and 21 infraspecific taxa of phytopathogenic fungi Peronosporales
(Oomycota), Protomycetales, Taphrinales, Erysiphales, Sphaeriales (Ascomycota), Uredinales, Ustilaginales
(Basidiomycota) and Mitosporic fungi which are a part of mycological herbarium (SAV) and electronic database
were gathered. The list of actual state diversity of fungi and their hosts was prepared.
In the natural ecosystems of plant communities 25 new species for Biospheric Reserve Tatras National
Park (e.g. Plasmopara praetermissa, Spermosporina gymnadeniae, Microbotryum pinquiculae,
Protomycopsis arnoldii, Protomyces crepidis-paludosae, 19 species of the genus Ramularia)
were found. Based on material from Slovakia, one of the taxa, Pseudocercosporella tatrensis
sp. nov. Mulenko & Bacigálová, was described as a new for science.
An important scientific result is the preparing and publishing the first list of species and bibliography
of Taphrinomycetes and their host plants referring to International Biospheric Reserve area
(Polish and Slovakian).
New information for European mycoflora is represented by the first finds of invasive
phytopathogenic species in the Carpathian and Slovak territories (e.g. Melampsoridium hiratsukanum,
Erysiphe azalea, Phyllactinia corni) and widening of taxonomical knowledge about
rare species of fungi and their hosts on European meaning (e.g.
Vankya vaillantii, Protomyces cirsii oleracei (M. Piatek), Erysiphe azalea
(J. Marková), Protomycopsis arnoldii (W. Mułenko)).

Synopsis of the project:
The project aimed to gather original scientific knowledge on character of epiphytic lichen diversity of oak
forests in the selected biocentres and adjacent bioareals within the eight orographical units in Slovakia.
The relevés of frequences of epiphytic lichens were sampled allowing for identification of components of
epiphytic lichen diverstity. Based on the relevés the values of Lichen Diversity Value indices were calculated
for the particular study areas. An interpretation scale for the indices was elaborated, for the first time in
Slovakia, to classify the studied oak forests. The scale enables to identify the level of deviation of lichen
diversity from naturality within the area. The results show, that the boundary values of the scale are comparable
with the scales established for industrial or urban areas of the countries of Western and Southern Europe, where
the method is being actively used. The sudied areas were attributed the following classes of environmental
alteration: very high, high, moderate, low, negligible. Based on the acquired data, the studied sites are
assigned as natural, semi-natural, semi-altered and altered in the Malé Karpaty Mts., natural, semi-natural
and semi-altered in the Strážovské vrchy Mts. In the Považský Inovec Mts. the studied sites fall within the
categories of natural and semi-natural environmnent, in the Muránska planina Mts. within semi-natural and
semi-altered.

Flora of cyanobacteria and algae of thermal springs in Slovakia |
| Principal investigator: F. Hindák |

Co-investigator: A. Hindáková
Duration: 2004 – 2006
Grant agency: VEGA 4033
During our studies of thermophilic phototrophic microorganisms of Slovakia, in thermal waters at Piešťany 21 genera with 20 infrageneric taxa of Cyanobacteria and 43 genera with 217 species and varieties were determined, while at Sklené Teplice it was 28 genera with 30 species of Cyanobacteria and 19 genera with 83 species and infraspecific taxa of diatoms (Bacillariophyceae). In thermal waters at Piešťany 7 taxa of diatoms are new for the algal flora of Slovakia, i.e. Gomphonema grovei var. lingulatum, G. insigne, Navicula sublucidula, Nitzschia amphibia var. frauenfeldii, N. desertorum, N. vitrea var. salinarum and Surirella terricola (Hindák & Hindáková 2006). In thermal waters at Sklené Teplice 8 species of Cyanobacteria are new records for algological flora of Slovakia: i. e. Cyanobium parvum, Gloeothece palea, Geitlerinema thermale, Leptolyngbya ferruginea, Leibleinia epiphytica, Lyngbya thermalis, Microcoleus steenstrupii, Scytonema stuposum (Hindák & Hindáková, in press). The life cycle of a rare nostocalean species Chlorogloeopsis fritschii was studied in cultures isolated from fields in India (type locality), thermal springs in Slovakia and a saline lake in Tunisia. As in the genera Nostoc, Trichormus or Nodularia, in C. fritschii all vegetative cells were able to transform into akinetes. The akinetes divided asymmetrically into a smaller part to be transformed into a heterocyte, and a bigger one, which divided again into two equal parts as vegetative cells, what is unique in this group of cyanobacteria (Hindák, in press).

Aim of the project was research of mycoflora of non-forest habitats in three selected areas of Slovakia: Biele Karpaty Mts., Cérová vrchovina Mts. and Laborecká vrchovina Mts. Material collected in the selected areas was classified to gruops of related species. We studied these genera with special emphasis: Entoloma, Clavaria, Ramariopsis, Hygrocybe, Pseudobaeospora, Trichoglossum and Camarophyllopsis. Herbarium material of that genera was in major part determined and particular taxonomical problems were defined. Result of the project are these finished studies: (1) new species Pseudobaeospora basii Adamčík et Ripková was described from the locality of Lysá in Biele Karpaty Mts., (2) another unknown taxon collected in Czech republic was defined based of knowlegde from previous taxonomical studies, (3) Pseudobaeospora celluloderma was first time reported from Slovakia, knowledge of variability of characters of P. mutabilis and P. basii was improved and key to determination of member ofthe gruop was prepared, (4) known disrtibution and taxonomic remarks on genus Trichoglossum in Slovakia was prepared, (5) two important endangered species Gymnopilus fulgens and Bovista paludosa were collected in area of Laborecká vrchovina Mts., (6) natural value of grasslands on studied sites was evaluated based on occurence of Hygrocybe species and for this purpose the methodics used in foreign were modified to specifics of Slovak grasslands, (7) collections of forest species entering grasslands improved sampling of material used for taxonomical studies established during previous projects and it resulted to several publications, (8) collections of forest species which enter grasslands were published in several floristical papers.
