Brief research history and status of myxomycete conservation in the Neotropics

As it is the case of most disciplines, biological groups and regions in the world; the historical path of research on myxomycetes in the Neotropical region has been written on the basis of a series of milestones, iconic researchers and emblematic pieces of work. In this short review, a highlight-based version of such history is provided by focusing on the effort carried out in different countries within the region. Due to historical and logistic limitations, the picture explaining the biogeography and ecological dynamics of myxomycetes for the Neotropics is still very incomplete. As such, it has been difficult to incorporate myxomycetes in the conservation agenda of organizations in the region. In spite of the latter, modern research techniques seem to represent the tool to bring our knowledge on myxomycete biology to a level of complex analysis over the environmental interactions of the groupUCR::Vicerrectoría de Investigación::Unidades de Investigación::Ingeniería::Instituto Investigaciones en Ingeniería (INII)UCR::Vicerrectoría de Docencia::Ciencias Básicas::Facultad de Ciencias::Escuela de Biologí

What mysteries lay in spore: Taxonomy, data, and the internationalization of mycology in Saccardo's <i>Sylloge Fungorum</i>

Italian mycologist Pier Andrea Saccardo is best remembered for his monumental Sylloge Fungorum, the first ‘modern’ effort to compile all identified fungi within a single classification scheme. The existing history of mycology is limited and has primarily focused on developments within England, but this article argues that Saccardo and his collaborators on the Sylloge supported a vital transnational expansion of mycological knowledge exchange and played a crucial role in stabilizing the tangled knot of local naming and identification among the world's amateur and professional mycologists. Written in the ‘universal’ scientific language of Latin, the Sylloge served as an early database of fungal knowledge and symbolized a broader unification of mycological inquiry in a moment of expanded scientific correspondence. The article situates this proto-database in broader histories of big data in biology and shows how the Sylloge formed a globalizing foundation for the twentieth century's major collecting and taxonomic advances in mycology
