Gloiocephala cerkezii, a new species from Croatia
A new species, Gloiocephala cerkezii, is described from Croatia. It is characterized by a pale brown to rusty brown pileus, an elongated central to slightly eccentric stipe, vein-like lamellae, large and elongate spores, subcapitate to capitate cystidia, a gelatinized trama, and the absence of hairs on the pileus and stipe. The description is accompanied by black and white photograph of basidiocarps and line drawings of microscopic elements. G. cerkezii is compared to closely related species, and a dichotomous key to European species of the genus Gloiocephala is provided. A new combination Gloiocephala pseudocaricis is made
Preliminary checklist of Agaricales from Croatia. I. Families Pleurotaceae and Tricholomataceae
The first part of the preliminary checklist of Agaricales from Croatia is given. It comprises the families Pleurotaceae and Tricholomataceae. 252 species (three of them in a broad sense) belonging to 48 genera are presented. Three genera and 35 species are reported for the first time from Croatia. For each species, the published and unpublished sources of data are given, as well as the collections in which the material is deposited

The fourth part of the preliminary checklist of Agaricales from Croatia is given. It comprises the families Bolbitiaceae, Coprinaceae, Entolomataceae and Pluteaceae. 96 species (one of them in a broad sense) belonging to 13 genera are presented. One genus and 19 species are reported for the first time from Croatia. For each species, the published and unpublished sources of data are given, as well as the collections in which the material is deposited

For each species, the published and unpublished sources of data are given, as well as the collections in which the material is deposited
Known distribution of Bolbitius variicolor in Croatia
Seven localities of Bolbitius variicolor G.F. Atk. have been recorded in Croatia up to the present. Annotated list of records is being given, along with the basic geographical and ecological data. Records from six localities have been revised. Known distribution of B. variicolor in Croatia is shown on the map with the UTM grid
Studies of two Corner types (Marasmius nigroimplicatus and M. subrigidichorda) and new Gymnopus combinations
Type specimens of Marasmius nigroimplicatus and M. subrigidichorda were studied. Based on morphological studies, both species belong to Gymnopus, sect. Androsacei. Color photographs of dried basidiomata and microscopic characters accompany the detailed descriptions. New combinations are proposed for these two taxa. Nine related marasmioid species are transferred to Gymnopus
New names in the genus Marasmius
Illegitimate later homonyms for six well documented species in the genus Marasmius are used in recent literature. Consequently, new names are proposed: M. asiaticus (= M. distantifolius Y.S. Tan & Desjardin), M. canalipes (= M. sulcatipes Pat.), M. leelavathyi (= M. parvulus Manim. & Leelav.), M. lilacinitinctus [= M. lilacinus (Coker & Beardslee) Singer], M. masseei (= M. aratus Massee), and M. neotropicus (= M. asemus Singer)
Preliminary checklist of Agaricales from Croatia III: Families Boletaceae, Gomphidiaceae and Paxillaceae.
The third part of the preliminary checklist of Agaricales from Croatia is given. It comprises the families Boletaceae, Gomphidiaceae and Paxillaceae. 85 species belonging to 19 genera are presented. Six species are reported for the first time from Croatia. For each species, the published and unpublished sources of data are given, as well as the collections in which the material is deposited. The new combination Paxillus panuoides var. ionipus is proposed
Notes, outline and divergence times of Basidiomycota
The Basidiomycota constitutes a major phylum of the kingdom Fungi and is second in species numbers to the Ascomycota. The present work provides an overview of all validly published, currently used basidiomycete genera to date in a single document. An outline of all genera of Basidiomycota is provided, which includes 1928 currently used genera names, with 1263 synonyms, which are distributed in 241 families, 68 orders, 18 classes and four subphyla. We provide brief notes for each accepted genus including information on classification, number of accepted species, type species, life mode, habitat, distribution, and sequence information. Furthermore, three phylogenetic analyses with combined LSU, SSU, 5.8s, rpb1, rpb2, and ef1 datasets for the subphyla Agaricomycotina, Pucciniomycotina and Ustilaginomycotina are conducted, respectively. Divergence time estimates are provided to the family level with 632 species from 62 orders, 168 families and 605 genera. Our study indicates that the divergence times of the subphyla in Basidiomycota are 406ā430 Mya, classes are 211ā383 Mya, and orders are 99ā323 Mya, which are largely consistent with previous studies. In this study, all phylogenetically supported families were dated, with the families of Agaricomycotina diverging from 27ā178 Mya, Pucciniomycotina from 85ā222 Mya, and Ustilaginomycotina from 79ā177 Mya. Divergence times as additional criterion in ranking provide additional evidence to resolve taxonomic problems in the Basidiomycota taxonomic system, and also provide a better understanding of their phylogeny and evolution
Preliminary checklist of Agaricales from Croatia V: Families Crepidotaceae, Russulaceae and Strophariaceae.
The fifth and the last part of the preliminary checklist of Agaricales from Croatia is given. It comprises the families Crepidotaceae, Russulaceae and Strophariaceae. 160 species (three of them in a broad sense) belonging to 11 genera are presented. Eight species are reported for the first time from Croatia. For each species, the published and unpublished sources of data are given, as well as the collections in which the material is deposited
