The Inocybe-Conocybe workshops at Dombås 2021-2022

Some results from the Inocybe(-Conocybe) workshops at Dombås 2021-2022 are presented, with emphasis on the 2021 Inocybe results, based on extensive ITS-DNA sequencing and phylogenetic analyses. Among the 60 Inocybe s. lat. species sequence-verified in 2021, 30 were new to Norway. Most species were found in subalpine tall-herb Betula forests and calcareous low alpine Betula nana-Salix thickets, and more than half of the species are believed to be preferentially alpine-subalpine taxa.publishedVersio

Telamonioide slørsopper (Cortinarius), seksjon Safranopedes i Norge, med fokus på arter i kalklindeskog

The Cortinarius (telamonioid) species of sect. Safranopedes (= sect. Rubricosi s. auct.) in Norway are presented, with emphasis on our calcareous Tilia forest species. Altogether 15 species from the section are now known from Norway. Most of these species must be regarded as so far little known, overlooked or misidentified. The species can be sorted in four groups in Norway; (i) more or less habi- tat-specific calcareous Tilia forest species (Cortinarius elaphinicolor, C. epipurrus, C. milvinicolor, C. parhonestus), (ii) small species in rich Corylus-Quercus-Tilia forests (C. russulaespermus, C. subexitiosus, C. subscotoides), (iii) small species mainly in conifer forests or with Betula (C. annae-maritae, C. comptulus, C. nigrocuspidatus, C. aff. pauperculus, C. subobtusus) (iv) very small taxa associated mainly with Salix spp., including arctic-alpine populations (C. paululus, C. pauperculus, C. scotoides). The calcareous Tilia forests taxa include the core group of sect. Safranopedes; mediumsized taxa with violet KOH-reaction in context and often radicate, saffron yellow spotted stipe and context. This core group includes C. epipurrus (= C. pseudosafranopes) which seems not uncommon in Europe, and three apparently widespread but rare species, only known from a few localities outside SE Norway: C. milvinicolor is distinguished on its initially olivaceous grey brown colours, C. parhonestus on more vivid fulvous colours and C. elaphinicolor being more or less intermediate. A presentation and nomenclatural discussion on the type species of the section, C. safranopes is included, although this species is so far not confirmed from Norway. barcoding, Cortinariaceae, morphology, nrDNA-ITS sequences, taxonomy, TelamoniaTelamonioide slørsopper (Cortinarius), seksjon Safranopedes i Norge, med fokus på arter i kalklindeskogpublishedVersio

Telamonioid Cortinarius species of the C-puellaris group from calcareous Tilia forests

Four species belonging to the Cortinarius puellaris group are presented, including the two new species C. biriensis, C. subpuellaris and the recently described C. puellaris. Based on type studies, it is shown that the fourth species in the group should be named C. intempestivus (=C. cristatosporus). The species co-occur and are all studied mainly from SE Norwegian calcareous Tilia forests, but at least some of them also occur in Quercus(-Carpinus) forests in temperate-mediterranean areas of C-S Europe, and are apparently widespread and much overlooked. These are all tiny, small, ochre-redbrown telamonioid cortinarii with strongly to spiny ornamented spores. Phylogenetically, the taxa are well-distinguished by 8 to 22 ITS differences. Together with two taxa only known from ectomycorrhizal ITS sequences, they constitute an apparently well-supported Glade with uncertain affinity.Peer reviewe

Kalkområdene i Snåsa og Steinkjer, Nord-Trøndelag – oaser for sjeldne karplanter, moser, lav og sopp

The calcareous areas of Snåsa and Steinkjer municipalities have for a long time been well known for their rare vascular plants including several redlisted orchids such as Cypripedium calceolus, Epipogium aphyllum and Ophrys insectifera. However, the diversity of bryophytes, lichens and fungi in the same areas has until recently been much less known. This paper summarizes 10 years of floristic field work in calcareous coniferous forests in the Snåsa and Steinkjer municipalities. Of particular interest are the high number of mycorrhizal fungi recorded close to hotspot areas of orchids, including species of Cortinarius, Hygrophorus, Ramaria and Sarcodon. A number of crustose lichen specialists of calcareous rock were also recorded, many of which are rarely collected. Petractis clausa is a characteristic member of this group. The bryophyte flora is diverse with several nationally scarce species. Especially bryophytes of calcareous rock walls, in both spruce and pine forest, include many rare and red listed species. A mixture of phytogeographic elements are present in the area including both southern/southeastern, northern and western species. Several southern species are probably relict populations from the warmer period after the last glaciation. Some of the forest types are unique for the Scandinavian peninsula, like certain types of moist calcareous spruce forests on shallow soils.acceptedVersio

THE REPRESENTATION OF BALI NINE EXECUTION CASE

This study investigates the representation of Bali Nine Execution Case in The Jakarta Post and The ABC by employing ideological square which is proposed by Van Dijk (2000). The analysis focuses on two semantic macro-strategies of positive self-presentation and negative other-presentation which are realized through the use of discursive strategies. Qualitative descriptive method is used to analyze how the Bali Nine Execution Case is represented in the two newspapers. Two articles from each newspaper become the sample of analysis to conduct the study. The findings show that The ABC and The Jakarta Post represent the same issue differently. The use of discursive strategies plays fundamental role in the representation of Bali Nine Execution Case. In representing the issue, The ABC uses a lot of discursive strategies, such as hyperbole, victimization and dramatization as the most frequent strategies to form the positive self-presentation and negative other-presentation. On the other hand, only several discursive strategies are found in The Jakarta Post’s articles, such as disclaimer and vagueness as the most frequent strategies. Moreover, The Jakarta Post only creates the form of positive self-presentation, which is different from how The ABC represents the issue. Another finding reveals that there is ideology implied behind the representation of Bali Nine Execution Case in each newspaper. Partiality is found in The ABC, while neutrality is found in The Jakarta Post.; Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menginvestigasi bagaimana representasi dari kasus eksekusi Bali Nine dalam koran The Jakarta Post dan The ABC dengan menggunakan teori ideological square dari Van Dijk (2000). Penelitian ini berfokus pada dua semantic makro strategi, yaitu positive self-presentation dan negative other-presentation yang terlihat melalui penggunaan discursive strategy. Metode deskriptif kualitatif digunakan untuk menganalisis bagaimana kasus eksekusi Bali Nine direpresentasikan di dalam kedua koran tersebut. Dua artikel dari masing-masing koran menjadi sampel penelitian ini. Dari hasil penelitian, terlihat bahwa The ABC dan The Jakarta Post merepresentasikan isu yang sama secara berbeda. Penggunaan discursive strategy menjadi hal yang penting dalam merepresentasikan kasus eksekusi Bali Nine. Dalam merepresentasikan isu ini, The ABC menggunakan banyak discursive strategy seperti hyperbole, victimization dan dramatization untuk membuat positive self-presentation dan negative other-presentation. Sementara itu, The Jakarta Post hanya menggunakan beberapa discursive strategy seperti disclaimer dan vagueness. The ABC hanya menggunakan bentuk positive self-presentation dalam merepresentasikan isu eksekusi, hal ini berbeda dari bagaimana The ABC merepresentasikan isu ini. Hasil lain dari penilitian ini ialah ditemukannya ideologi dari masing-masing koran yang didapat dari representasi kasus eksekusi Bali Nine

Rødlister som redskap i forvaltningen av biologisk mangfold i skog - utfordringer og forbedringsmuligheter

Formålet med rapporten er å foreslå forbedringer i rødlistearbeidet og datainnsamling basert på en gjennomgang av datagrunnlaget for utvalgte skoglevende rødlistearter og måten rødlistearbeidet har vært gjennomført på. Vi ville prøve ut i vilken grad det er mulig å anvende de nye IUCN kriteriene på et utvalg av norske rødlistede skogsarter. Problemstillingene er belyst ved vurderinger av skoglevende rødlistede biller, makrolav, moser og sopp. Rapporten starter med en evaluering av rødlistearbeidet som ledet fram til gjeldende rødliste for hver av disse organismegruppene. En gjennomgang og systematisering av bakgrunnskunnskapen som er relevant for rødlistevurderinger er foretatt. Grunnlagsdataene er delt opp i en rekke parametre som er definert med begrunnelse om hvorfor de er relevante i rødlistevurderingene. Problemer knyttet til tolkning og avgrensning av de enkelte parametrene er diskutert. For et utvalg av rødlistede skogsarter ble alle tilgjengelige data samlet under de ulike parametrene i en matrise. Matrisen gir grunnlag for å sammenligne grunnlagsdataene for ulike arter og grupper, og å gjøre vurderinger på tvers av organismegruppene. Matrisen omfatter moser, makrolav, trebukker og et utvalg sopparter, særlig slørsopp (mykorrhiza-arter) og trelevende sopp. På bakgrunn av matrisedataene ble de enkelte artene rødlistekategorisert etter de nye IUCN kriteriene. Dette gir på en skjematisk måte en dokumentasjon som gjør det mulig å samholde datagrunnlaget med rødlistekategoriseringen. For å belyse problemer knyttet til tolkninger og vurderinger av datagrunnlaget i forhold til de ulike IUCN kriteriene, ble rødlistevurderingene for eksempelarter fra de ulike organismegruppene beskrevet i detalj. Dette gir et innsyn i selve rødlisteprosessen. […]publishedVersio

Rødsporer (Entoloma), underslekt Cyanula i Norge, med fokus på habitat og utbredelse

This is the third paper with results from the Norwegian Entoloma project 2015-2017. An overview is given of the species of Entoloma subgenus Cyanula in Norway. Cyanula includes, among other elements, many grassland fungi. This paper is part of a larger study concerning the European species of the subgenus Cyanula, including a multigene phylogeny that will be published in due course. Furthermore, a monograph with updated tax- onomic revision is recently issued. This paper focuses mainly on the species recorded from Norway with help of ITS DNA barcoding, with reference to recent collections also from Northern Sweden, with extensive notes of their habitat requirements and distribution. Altogether 53 Cyanula species are presented here, with an updated circumscription and naming. More than half of these are reported new to Norway since the start of the Norwegian Entoloma project. Of these, 18 have been described as new during the last three years, largely based on Norwegian material. Four of these are known exclusively from Scandinavia. barcoding, morphology, taxonomy, calcareous grasslands, calcareous forestsRødsporer (Entoloma), underslekt Cyanula i Norge, med fokus på habitat og utbredelseDette er den tredje artikkelen med resultater fra det norske Entoloma-prosjektet 2015-2017. Her gir vi en oversikt over rødsporer i underslekt Cyanula i Norge. Cyanula utgjør en av de største gruppene av våre beitemarksopper. Dette er del av en større studie over de europeiske artene i underslekt Cyanula, som inkluderer en omfattende fylogenetisk undersøkelseundersøkelse som snart vil bli publisert, samt en nylig publisert bok med en oppdatert taksonomisk revisjon av gruppa. Det foreliggende arbeidet fokuserer på arter registrert i Norge ved hjelp av ITS strekkoding. Også en del nylige, sekvenserte innsamlinger gjort i nordsvenske fjellområder er inkludert her. Artene presenteres seksjonsvis, med vekt på data om habitat-preferanser og utbredelse. Til sammen 53 Cyanula-arter er presentert her, med oppdatert artsavgrensning og navnsetting. Mer enn halvparten av disse artene er rapportert nye for Norge siden starten av det norske Entoloma-prosjektet. Av disse er 18 beskrevet som nye for vitenskapen de siste tre årene, i stor grad basert på norsk materiale. To av disse er kun kjent fra Norge, og ytterligere to kun fra Skandinavia.publishedVersio
