| Abstract: | Several patterns of long-distance in vitro sexual compatibility are demonstrated for Agaricales: 1) pan-Caribbean distributions of Favolus tenuiculus and Dictyopanus pusillus; 2) overland North American distribution of Phyllotopsis nidulans; 3) Gondwana-land distribution of Conchomyces bursaeformis; and 4) trans-Atlantic boreal forest distribution of Marasmius epiphyllus and Mycena rosella. Distribution and systematics of Pleurotopsis longinqua are discussed. |
