Description
Summary:Sporocybe after over 115 years. Fungal Diversity 14: 67-76. Some groups or genera described by Spegazzini have never been re-examined. In this paper the type material of Sporocybe and Periconia species described by Spegazzini are studied. The genus Periconia is represented in Argentina by seven species: P. bromeliicola, P. byssoides, P. circinata, P. lateralis, P. minutissima, P. spegazzinii and P. tirupatiensis. Among Spegazzini’s holotypes of Sporocybe, S. bromeliicola is considered a nomen dubium, S. antarctica is a lichen, S. chlorocephala is a synonym of Stromatographium stromaticum, Sporocybe penicillata is a synonym of Melanographium spinulosum and S. sacchari is a synonym of Doratomyces purpureofuscus. Doratomyces is represented by four species: D. asperulus, D. microsporus D. purpureofuscus and D. stemonitis, three of which are reported under this genus for the first time.
