Fungi New To Iowa
In Carrying on mycological investigations of diverse sorts, fungi that have an especial interest are frequently encountered. Such fungi may be noteworthy because of their rarity, the fact that they are on hosts not hitherto listed for them, or have apparently come from great distances. Twelve species are included, with descriptions and illustrations when the latter were available. Two Cokeromyces recurvatus and Syncephalis reftexa, are Phycoinycetes; seven, Diaporthe taleola, D. phaseolorum, Fenestella vestita, Byssocldamys nivea, Myxotrichum spinosum, Lophotrichus ampullus, Leptosphaeria gigaspora, are Ascoycetes; and three, Hyalothyridium calamagrostidis, Crocicreas atroviridis, and Septoria caraganae, belong to the Fungi Imperfecti

Notes for genera: basal clades of Fungi (including Aphelidiomycota, Basidiobolomycota, Blastocladiomycota, Calcarisporiellomycota, Caulochytriomycota, Chytridiomycota, Entomophthoromycota, Glomeromycota, Kickxellomycota, Monoblepharomycota, Mortierellomycota, Mucoromycota, Neocallimastigomycota, Olpidiomycota, Rozellomycota and Zoopagomycota)
Compared to the higher fungi (Dikarya), taxonomic and evolutionary studies on the basal clades of fungi are fewer in number. Thus, the generic boundaries and higher ranks in the basal clades of fungi are poorly known. Recent DNA based taxonomic studies have provided reliable and accurate information. It is therefore necessary to compile all available information since basal clades genera lack updated checklists or outlines. Recently, Tedersoo et al. (MycoKeys 13:1--20, 2016) accepted Aphelidiomycota and Rozellomycota in Fungal clade. Thus, we regard both these phyla as members in Kingdom Fungi. We accept 16 phyla in basal clades viz. Aphelidiomycota, Basidiobolomycota, Blastocladiomycota, Calcarisporiellomycota, Caulochytriomycota, Chytridiomycota, Entomophthoromycota, Glomeromycota, Kickxellomycota, Monoblepharomycota, Mortierellomycota, Mucoromycota, Neocallimastigomycota, Olpidiomycota, Rozellomycota and Zoopagomycota. Thus, 611 genera in 153 families, 43 orders and 18 classes are provided with details of classification, synonyms, life modes, distribution, recent literature and genomic data. Moreover, Catenariaceae Couch is proposed to be conserved, Cladochytriales Mozl.-Standr. is emended and the family Nephridiophagaceae is introduced
