  • Title: Four new bioluminescent taxa of Mycena sect. Calodontes from Peninsular Malaysia.
    Author: Chew AL, Tan YS, Desjardin DE, Musa MY, Sabaratnam V.
    Journal: Mycologia; 2014; 106(5):976-88. PubMed ID: 24891424.
    Abstract:
    Three new species and one new variety of bioluminescent Mycena collected from Peninsular Malaysia are described herein. All new species belong to Mycena sect. Calodontes in what is known as the Mycena pura complex. Comprehensive descriptions, photographs, illustrations and comparisons with phenetically similar species are provided. Molecular sequences data from the nuclear internal transcribed spacers (ITS-1 and ITS-2, including the 5.8S rRNA) were used to infer relationships within sect. Calodontes. Axenic cultures were obtained to provide data on culture morphology. This is the first published photographic documentation of bioluminescent basidiomes of members of Mycena sect. Calodontes. Also, this addition brings the total known bioluminescent fungi to 77 species.
