    The goal of this study was to increase the knowledge of gasteroid fungi in Atlantic Forest biome, which is considered one of the most important hot-spots of the world. Field expeditions were carried out in the Reserva Biologica Municipal de Santa Rita Mitzi Brandao area, in the southeastern part of Minas Gerais. 39 samples belonging to 11 species of earthstars and puffballs are new record for Minas Gerais, Geastrum javanicum Lév., Bovista cunninghamii Kreisel, and Lycoperdon lambinonii Demoulin are first records for Brazil. Information about the locality, morphological characters, illustrations of the basidiomata, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) of the basidiospores, as well as its distribution in Brazil, are given for all species.Con el objetivo de ampliar el conocimiento de la micobiota del bosque atlántico de Brasil, uno de los más importantes centros de biodiversidad del mundo, se llevaron a cabo varias expediciones de campo en el sudeste del estado de Minas Gerais. 39 muestras pertenecientes a 11 especies de hongos gasteromicetos son registradas por primera vez para Minas Gerais, Geastrum javanicum Lév., Bovista cunninghamii Kreisel y Lycoperdon lambinonii Demoulin se citan, además, por primera vez para Brasil. Para cada especie se aporta información sobre la localidad, los caracteres morfológicos, las fotografías de los basidiomas y de la microscopía electrónica de barrido (MEB) de las basiodiosporas, así como su distribución en Brasil

    Based on morphological and molecular analysis, we describe the new species Geastrum verrucoramulosum, discriminated from other species in the section Exareolata mainly by an elongated, verrucose, branched stipe. This new species is currently known from two forest locations in central and southwestern Amazonia. Species description, images, and taxonomic discussion of both morphological and molecular data are provided. © 2017 The Mycological Society of Japa

    The psychological science accelerator’s COVID-19 rapid-response dataset

    In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Psychological Science Accelerator coordinated three large-scale psychological studies to examine the effects of loss-gain framing, cognitive reappraisals, and autonomy framing manipulations on behavioral intentions and affective measures. The data collected (April to October 2020) included specific measures for each experimental study, a general questionnaire examining health prevention behaviors and COVID-19 experience, geographical and cultural context characterization, and demographic information for each participant. Each participant started the study with the same general questions and then was randomized to complete either one longer experiment or two shorter experiments. Data were provided by 73,223 participants with varying completion rates. Participants completed the survey from 111 geopolitical regions in 44 unique languages/dialects. The anonymized dataset described here is provided in both raw and processed formats to facilitate re-use and further analyses. The dataset offers secondary analytic opportunities to explore coping, framing, and self-determination across a diverse, global sample obtained at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, which can be merged with other time-sampled or geographic data

    O gênero Geastrum Pers. (Geastraceae, Basidiomycota): ocorrência, chave taxonômica e descrições de novas espécies do Nordeste brasileiro

    Geastraceae is a monophyletic family included in the gomphoid-phalloid clade, it is composed only by two genus: Geastrum and Myriostoma. These genus are closely related in their morphology and phylogeny, both showing angiocarpic basidiomata, apical stoma, basidiospores passively released by the bellows mechanism and exoperidium dehiscent in rays, these genus are distinct by the number of stomas and pedicels. Because of dehiscense of exoperidium they are popularly known as “earthstars”. Usually they occur on decomposing leaf-litter and decaying wood. They are, thus, saprophytic, with rare exceptions of ectomycorrhizal species. Geastrum is the most diverse gasteroid genus in Brazil, with an estimated 51 records. However, there are large gaps in the geographic distribution and systematics studies about the Geastrum in this country, especially because of the characteristics found in the Brazilian territory (megadiverse, hotspots and continental size), which makes it a priority area for species inventory. Thus, this work was aimed at realizing inventory of species of Geastrum, which occur in Caatinga and Northeastern Atlantic Rainforest. At least two field expeditions were realized, during about four days on rainy season of 2013 and 2014 in the areas: Reserva Biológica de Guaribas, located in Atlantic Rainforest domain, Paraíba State and Reserva Ecológica Estadual Mata do Pau Ferro, located on “Brejos Paraibanos”, Paraíba State. Furthermore, specimens deposited in the Herbarium of the Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, which were collected in Parque Nacional Vale do Catimbau, Caatinga of Pernambuco State, were analyzed. The specimens were identified according to analysis of macro and micro morphology based on specific literature. Approximately 400 basidiomata, distributed in 73 exsiccates were analyzed. 21 species were identified, 19 are in specie level, which two are proposed to new species. (Geastrum magnosporum sp. nov. e G. pusillupilosum sp. nov.) and two in genera level (sp. e aff.). We emphasize one new record for Brazil, 12 new records for Paraíba State, four new records for semiarid region in Brazil and six new records to Atlantic Rainforest relicts “Brejo de Altitude”. So, the results improved the knowledge about Geastrum in Paraíba State by 200%, 24 % in Brazilian semiarid region and 55% in Atlantic Rainforest relicts “Brejo de Altitude”, evincing that Northeastern Brazil has high species richness.Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPESGeastraceae é uma família monofilética pertencente ao clado “gomphoid-phalloid”, composta apenas por dois gêneros Geastrum e Myriostoma, que são muito próximos tanto na morfologia quanto na filogenia, ambos apresentam basidiomas angiocárpicos, poro apical, basidiosporos liberados passivamente através do mecanismo de fole e exoperídio deiscente em raios, sendo diferenciados pelo número de ostíolos e pedicelos. Devido à deiscência do exoperídio, são conhecidos popularmente como “estrelas-daterra”. Ocorrem geralmente degradando liteira ou madeira, sendo, portanto, saprofíticos, com raras exceções de espécies ectomicorrízicas. Geastrum é um dos gêneros gasteroides mais diversos no Brasil, com 51 registros. Contudo, existem lacunas de conhecimento quanto à distribuição geográfica e sistemática deste gênero no país. Especialmente, devido às características encontradas em território brasileiro (megavidersidade, “hotspots” e tamanho continetal), as quais o tornam área prioritária para inventário de espécies. Desta forma, o presente trabalho objetivou realizar inventariar espécies Geastrum ocorrentes em áreas da Caatinga e Mata Atlântica do Nordeste. Foram realizadas pelo menos duas expedições de campo, com duração aproximada de quatro dias, durante períodos de chuva dos anos 2013 e 2014 para as áreas: Reserva Biológica de Guaribas, localizada no domínio Mata Atlântica da Paraíba e Reserva Ecológica Estadual Mata do Pau Ferro, localizada nos “Brejos Paraibanos”. Além disso, foram analisados espécimes depositados no Herbário UFRN-Fungos, os quais foram coletados no Parque Nacional Vale do Catimbau, Caatinga de Pernambuco. Os espécimes foram identificados de acordo com a análise de macro e micromorfologia, seguindo literatura específica. Foram analisados cerca de 400 basidiomas, distribuídos em 73 exsicatas. Foram identificadas 21 espécies, 19 em nível de espécie, sendo duas destas propostas como novas espécies (Geastrum magnosporum sp. nov. e G. pusillupilosum sp. nov.) e duas em nível de gênero (sp. e aff.). Destaca-se um novo registro para o Brasil, 12 novos registros para o estado da Paraíba, quatro novos registros para a região Semiárida do Brasil e seis novos registros para a vegetação de “Brejos de Altitude”. Desta forma, os resultados representam um aumento de 200% no conhecimento do gênero Geastrum na Paraíba, 24 % no Semiárido e 55% no “Brejo de Altitude”, demostrando que o Nordeste brasileiro apresenta uma alta riqueza de espécies
