Fossombronia bracchia Cargill (Fossombroniaceae, Marchantiophyta), a new species from Western Australia

The new species, Fossombronia bracchia, from Lesueur National Park, an area of high vascular plant endemism and species richness in southwestern Western Australia, is described and illustrated; a distribution map is provided. The new species has strong morphological similarities to the South African species F. tumida

Four new species of Amanita sect. Roanokenses (Basidiomycota) from Western Australia

Four species of Amanita Pers. are documented from Western Australia. Amanita brunneola E.M.Davison & Giustiniano is described from the Perth region. It is distinguished by its pale brown pileus, white universal veil, globose basal bulb, amyloid, cylindric spores and presence of clamp connections. Amanita cretaceaverruca E.M.Davison & Giustiniano is described from the Perth region and the southern jarrah forest. It is distinguished by its brown pileus, with a thick white warty universal veil, globose or ovoid basal bulb, amyloid, elongate spores and absence of clamp connections. Amanita mallee E.M.Davison, Giustiniano & M.D.Barrett is described from the Shire of Coolgardie. It is distinguished by its white pileus and universal veil, tapered basal bulb, amyloid, cylindric spores and abundant clamp connections. Amanita validiuscula E.M.Davison, Giustiniano & K.Syme is described from the wheatbelt and Yalgoo area. It is distinguished by its white pileus and universal veil, ivory lamellae, fusiform or tapered basal bulb, amyloid, ellipsoid spores and abundant clamp connections. Molecular analysis shows all these species are members of sect. Roanokenses. Amanita brunneola, A. cretaceaverruca and A. mallee form a clade with other species from Australia and New Zealand, which may indicate Gondwanan origin

Two new species of Asproinocybe (Tricholomataceae) from Australia.

Asproinocybe lyophylloides sp. nov. from south-west Western Australia, and A. daleyae sp. nov. from New Zealand, are described based on morphological and molecular data. These are the first published records of the genus in Australasia. Both species have lilac tones to the fruitbody, as well as tuberculate inamyloid basidiospores, typical of the genu
