''Rostraureum'' is a genus of fungi in the family Cryphonectriaceae Cryphonectriaceae is a family of fungi in the order Diaporthales Diaporthales is an order (biology), order of sac fungi.

Rostraureum Tropicale
''Rostraureum tropicale'' is a species of fungus from genus '' Rostraureum'' that is found in Ecuador. Distribution and habitat ''Rostraureum tropicale'' is a pathogen of ''Terminalia ivorensis'' and causes basal stem cankers on dying trees. The fungus is distributed in the lowland tropics of Ecuador. Hosts include ''Terminalia ivorensis'' and ''Terminalia superba'' (both in family ''Combretaceae'' of the ''Myrtales''). Morphology Morphologically, ''Rostraureum tropicale'' has characteristics similar to those for ''Cryphonectria'', '' Endothia'' and '' Chrysoporthe'', but appears to be superficially closest to ''Cryphonectria longirostris''. The fungus displays characteristics typical of diaporthalean fungi, with periphysate ostiolar canals with no paraphyses, and asci are unitunicate with refractive apical rings. Fruiting structures are orange to yellow, and ascospores are one-septate and fusoid to ellipsoid. ''Rostraureum tropicale'' can be distinguished from '' En ...

Genus
Genus (; : genera ) is a taxonomic rank above species and below family (taxonomy), family as used in the biological classification of extant taxon, living and fossil organisms as well as Virus classification#ICTV classification, viruses. In binomial nomenclature, the genus name forms the first part of the binomial species name for each species within the genus. :E.g. ''Panthera leo'' (lion) and ''Panthera onca'' (jaguar) are two species within the genus ''Panthera''. ''Panthera'' is a genus within the family Felidae. The composition of a genus is determined by taxonomy (biology), taxonomists. The standards for genus classification are not strictly codified, so different authorities often produce different classifications for genera. There are some general practices used, however, including the idea that a newly defined genus should fulfill these three criteria to be descriptively useful: # monophyly – all descendants of an ancestral taxon are grouped together (i.e. Phylogeneti ...

Fungi
A fungus (: fungi , , , or ; or funguses) is any member of the group of eukaryotic organisms that includes microorganisms such as yeasts and mold (fungus), molds, as well as the more familiar mushrooms. These organisms are classified as one of the kingdom (biology)#Six kingdoms (1998), traditional eukaryotic kingdoms, along with Animalia, Plantae, and either Protista or 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 motility, 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 o ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Mycological Research
''Fungal Biology'' is a scientific journal that publishes peer-reviewed papers on all aspects of basic and applied research of the fungi, including lichens, yeasts, oomycetes, and slime moulds. A publication of the British Mycological Society, it was founded in 1896 as ''Transactions of the British Mycological Society'' (1896–1989) and was later titled ''Mycological Research'' (1989–2010). The founding editor was Carleton Rea (1896–1930). History The journal was established in 1896 under the title ''Transactions of the British Mycological Society''. The founding editor was Carleton Rea, who continued in the role until 1930. Rea was the sole editor until 1919, when he was joined by John Ramsbottom; subsequently there were two or three editors until 1967 when the group was expanded under a Senior Editor. The earliest issues contained reports on fungus-collecting expeditions and the first British sightings of fungal species; later, research papers and reviews were also p ...

Monotypic Sordariomycetes Genera
In biology, a monotypic taxon is a taxonomic group (taxon) that contains only one immediately subordinate taxon. A monotypic species is one that does not include subspecies or smaller, infraspecific taxa. In the case of genera, the term "unispecific" or "monospecific" is sometimes preferred. In botanical nomenclature, a monotypic genus is a genus in the special case where a genus and a single species are simultaneously described. Theoretical implications Monotypic taxa present several important theoretical challenges in biological classification. One key issue is known as "Gregg's Paradox": if a single species is the only member of multiple hierarchical levels (for example, being the only species in its genus, which is the only genus in its family), then each level needs a distinct definition to maintain logical structure. Otherwise, the different taxonomic ranks become effectively identical, which creates problems for organizing biological diversity in a hierarchical system. ...
