The echinorhynchid acanthocephalan Acanthocephalus sp. was collected and described from four species of fishes (rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss, Sakhalin huchen Hucho perryi, Japanese pond smelt Hypomesus nipponensis, and threespine stickleback Gasterosteus aculeatus) from a lake system, the Tsugaru-Jūniko Lakes, in Aomori Prefecture, northern Japan. In rainbow trout, the prevalence and
intensity of infection markedly differed between lakes, and the fish were most frequently and most heavily infected in the
lakes with a dense population of the isopod intermediate host Asellus hilgendorfi. In isopods, the prevalence of acanthocephalan larvae increased in the late winter and reached its highest level in March
or April. In rainbow trout, male worms were abundant from winter to spring, and female worms were immature during these seasons.
Gravid females were abundant in summer and autumn. These findings indicate that Acanthocephalus sp. is an annual species and its recruitment from the intermediate host to the fish occurs mainly in winter and spring.

A new species of Erysiphe sect. Uncinula is described and illustrated from Patagonia, Argentina. Erysiphe patagoniaca sp. nov., found on leaves of Nothofagus × antarctica, is similar to E. nothofagi and E. kenjiana, but differs in its appendages being twisted throughout their length and the number of appendages, asci, and ascospores.
The two endemic species of Erysiphe sect. Uncinula, E. magellanica and E. nothofagi, coexisted on the same leaves together with Erysiphe patagoniaca.

Three new species of Agaricales from eastern Honshu, Japan, are described and illustrated. (1) Clitocybe minutella sp. nov. (section Vernae), having white, very small, clitocyboid basidiomata with white, strigose mycelial tomentum at the base of the stipe and trichodermial
elements in the pileipellis, occurs on leaf litter in deciduous oak forests. (2) Crepidotus longicomatus sp.nov. (section Echinospori), forms very small (up to 3.5 mm in diameter), reniform basidiomata densely covered overall with white to pale yellow, erect,
thick-walled, long hairs. It has melleous, echinulate basidiospores, and was found on fallen dead branches in lowland oak
forests. (3) Crepidotus virgineus sp. nov. (section Crepidotus), forming pure white, reniform basidiomata, has smooth, ellipsoid basidiospores, subfusiform-pedicellate to irregularly cylindrical
cheilocystidia, and abundant clamp connections. It occurs on fallen dead branches in lowland oak forests.

We investigated the effects of temperature, photoperiod, food and host availability, and body size on the overwintering abilities
of the egg parasitoid Anaphes nitens Girault (Hymenoptera, Mymaridae) under natural conditions. Seven groups of eighty females received one of four treatments
(n = 20): (i) honey and hosts, (ii) water and hosts, (iii) honey, or (iv) water. Seven groups of forty males received only honey
or water (n = 20). To test if short day-length is the main cue for larval dormancy, the experiment was replicated inside a climate chamber
at 20°C and under a winter photoperiod. A. nitens overwinters because of quiescence or oligopause inside the hosts and increased adult longevity. Mean pre-emergence mortality
was up to 26% indoors and 15.2% outdoors, males being more affected. Development time had a significant and positive effect
on body size. Honey-fed females without hosts had the highest longevity (53 days). Mother’s diet and size affected development
time, body size, longevity, and fecundity of the progeny. The results confirm the good adaptation of the parasitoid to the
environmental conditions of NW Spain and its ability to synchronize its life cycle with the phenology of the host.

Two Exobasidium species causing Exobasidium leaf blister on Rhododendron spp. are described. An Exobasidium leaf blister on Rhododendron yedoense var. yedoense f. yedoense has been recognized in Hokkaido Prefecture, Japan, since the first report was issued in 1950. The causal fungus is identified
with Exobasidium dubium from the morphology of its hymenial structure and mode of germination of the basidiospores. Another Exobasidium leaf blister
on Rhododendron dauricum has been observed in Hokkaido Prefecture, Japan. In comparison with morphology based on hymenial structure and mode of germination
of the basidiospores of the 100 validly described taxa, this fungus differs from those known taxa in the size of basidia and
basidiospores, the numbers of sterigmata and septa of basidiospores, and the mode of germination of basidiospores. Thus, a
new species, Exobasidium miyabei, is established and illustrated.

A marine fungus was isolated from the black tiger prawn Penaeus monodon at Nha Trang, Vietnam, on March 20, 2001 and named isolate NJM 0131. The fungus was identified as Haliphthoros milfordensis from the characteristics of asexual reproduction, and its physiological characteristics were investigated. Although the optimum
temperature for growth of the isolate was 25°–30°C, the fungus grew at a wide range of temperatures (15°–40°C). H. milfordensis grew well in 50%–100% seawater, but poorly in PYG agar containing 1.0%–5.0% NaCl and KCl. The fungus grew at a wide range
of pH (4.0–11.0) with the optimum pH value of 7.0–9.0. The isolate also showed pathogenicity to swimming crab larvae (Portunus trituberculatus) by artificial infection, but mortality was not high. This is the first report of disease in the black tiger prawn P. monodon in Vietnam caused by H. milfordensis.

Umbelopsis gibberispora is described as a new species in the genus Umbelopsis, Umbelopsidaceae, Mucorales. The species differs from others in this genus by ellipsoidal sporangiospores with unilaterally
thickened walls. Phylogenetic analyses based on nuclear large subunit ribosomal DNA (nLSU rDNA) partial sequences suggest
that U. gibberispora, U. swartii, and U. westeae form a clade together with the strains of Umbelopsis ramanniana. The ex-type strain of Micromucor ramannianus var. angulisporus is found to be very close to Umbelopsis vinacea, whereas other isolates identified under the former name in the sense of Linnemann fall in the U. ramanniana subclade. For these isolates, a new species, Umbelopsis angularis, is introduced. Phylogenetic relationships among Umbelopsis species are discussed related to their attributes of the sporangial wall and mature spore shapes.

The karyotype of Flammulina velutipes (Curt. : Fr.) Sing. was investigated using contour-clamped homogeneous electric fields (CHEF) gel electrophoresis. A parental
dikaryotic stock, JA, was resolved into at least eight chromosomal DNA bands ranging from 1.4- to 4.9-megabase (Mb) pairs.
Overall, little size variation was found among monokaryotic strains with a few major exceptions. Among 13 monokaryotic progenies
examined, 11 strains were resolved into at least eight chromosomal DNA bands in a manner similar to the parent dikaryon, whereas
the other 2 were resolved into at least seven chromosomes lacking the 2.1-Mb chromosome possessed in the former. A slightly
larger size variation was found in a chromosome carrying ribosomal DNA. An estimated haploid genome size of this stock was
24.0 Mb or more.

Pteromalus cerealellae (Ashmead) (Hymenoptera: Pteromalidae) is an ectoparasitoid of several stored-product insect pests. Very little information
has been published on its biology and development in host larvae, which typically are concealed within seeds. We documented
the development of P. cerealellae within fourth instar larvae of its concealed host, Callosobruchus maculatus (F.) (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) infesting cowpea seeds. The preimaginal life stages of the parasitoid were characterized
for the first time using morphological structures revealed by microscopic techniques including scanning electron microscopy. Pteromalus cerealellae produces hymenopteriform eggs and larvae. Eggs hatch into 13-segmented first instar larvae with peripneustic condition of
spiracles. The larvae have simple, tusk-like mandibles, whereas the mandibles of the pupae and the adults are of the conventional
toothed types. Using statistical analyses of the sizes of the larval mandibles and head capsules in conjunction with reliable
characters such as the number of exuviae on the body of parasitoid larvae, cuticular folding, and excretion of the meconium,
we recorded four larval instars for P. cerealellae. The data showed significant positive correlations between larval mandible lengths and widths of larval head capsules, as
well as between mandible lengths and larval instars, suggesting that mandible length is a good predictor of the number of
instars in P. cerealellae. Developmental time from egg to adult emergence was ∼12 d for females and ∼11 days for males at 30 ± 1°C, 70 ± 5% r.h. and
12L:12D photoperiod. 相似文献

In vitro colonization of hydrophilic contact lenses by Aspergillus niger was investigated. Five strains of the fungus, four polymers, two culture media and four incubation periods were considered
for analysis. Only the 2700 strain colonized the lenses. The degrees of adhesion and invasion varied significantly according
to the characteristics of the culture under investigation. Journal of Industrial Microbiology & Biotechnology (2002) 29, 6–9 doi:10.1038/sj.jim.7000255
