Abstract The surveys that started at the end of November 2004 have yielded 1,107 species of macrofungi from an area of about 71.4 ha. In the 2011/2012 season, 42 visits to Observatory Hill yielded 492 species of macrofungi, of which 87 species were found on Observatory Hill for the first time. Many species found on Observatory Hill in 2011/2012 have not been previously known in Canada. One new species of the genus Cortinarius, Cortinarius parkeri, has been described in the April 2012 issue of the journal Botany (formerly called Canadian Journal of Botany). At least three more previously undescribed species are being studied by mycologists, specialists in these particular groups of fungi. The most interesting find of this 2011/2012 season was a bluish fungus that grew on a trunk of a fallen Garry oak. Even internationally renowned mycologists have not been able to agree on the genus where the fungus should belong (see the cover photograph).

Introduction Since the beginning of the 1990’s, there has been a renewed interest in the study of biodiversity. It was recognized that more attention should be paid to the study of global, national and local biodiversity. Hawksworth (2001) estimated that there were about 1.5 million fungal species. E.M. Fries (1825), one of the great founders of mycology, considered fungi equivalent to insects in terms of species number. Most of the inventories have been short-term, and this is inadequate when one aims to obtain a full list of fungal species in an area. There are several well-known sites, all in Europe, that have been visited by mycologists for more than 20 years. Kindrogen Field Centre, Perthshire, UK, was used by R. Watling for running field courses over 30 years. Watling (1995) observed that the number of new additional species started to level off after about six years, then rose more slowly and almost reached a plateau after 19 years. He also concluded that the intensity of the study is critical to the completeness of the survey. The two best-known sites with long-term fungal inventories are both in England: Esher Common (about 400 ha) in Surrey and Slapton Ley National Nature Reserve (about 200 ha) in Devon. Results of these field studies clearly demonstrate the need for long-term fungal

inventories. Both these sites have been studied for more than 25 years, but they continue to yield new, previously unrecorded species. This happens when new ecological niches are being examined or when more specialists visit the site. Since 1969, about 64 mycologists have visited Slapton Ley National Reserve and participated in the mycological survey there. This survey yielded 2,344 species identified in this National Reserve by 1995 (Hawksworth 2001). In spite of the fact that Esher Common in Surrey and Slapton Ley National Nature Reserve in Devon are both similar in their ecology, it is estimated that only about 40 per cent of fungal species have been recorded in both sites. Kendrick (2005) discussed the rare and common occurrence of fungal species using results from several long-term surveys. He also included the first long-term study from Vancouver Island (Roberts et al. 2004). This was a five-year study of macrofungi of Clayoquot Sound and I was involved in this particular study. We recorded 551 species, but only 28 species reoccurred in every year of this study. On average, we found over 100 new species in the study area every year. Based on a review of several long-term mycological surveys, Kendrick (2005) concluded that

1) there are not many common macrofungi that would be found every year on a site; 2) there are more rarely fruiting or occasionally fruiting fungi than those that are

common; and 3) the investigators should anticipate moderate numbers of previously unrecorded

species every new year of an ongoing field survey. For instance, in a 21-year survey of a Swiss forest, only eight species out of the total 408 species recorded were found every year of the survey (Straatsma et al. 2001). Kendrick (2005) also analyzed species lists from 16 successive annual mushroom shows organized by the Cascade Mycological Society in Eugene, Oregon. The total number of species displayed in the 16 years of mushroom shows was close to 700 species. Based on this study, Kendrick divided species according to their rarity into five groups:

1. Ubiquitous or abundant: a fungus must occur in every year. Applies to about 5 per cent of taxa recorded in the Cascade Mycological Society (CMS) database.

2. Common: a fungus must be recorded 4 years out of five. Applies to just over 10 per cent of the taxa recorded in the CMS database.

3. Sporadic or occasional: taxa recorded in 2 or 3 years out of 10. Applies to about 35 per cent of the taxa recorded by the CMS.

4. Uncommon or infrequent: those taxa which occurred in only 1 year out of 5 or less often, down to 1 year in 10. Applies to about 20 per cent of the taxa recorded by the CMS.

5. Rare: those taxa that occurred less often than 1 year in 10. This applies to almost 30 per cent of the taxa recorded by the CMS.

Hawksworth (2001) also compares the number of fungi species with the number of vascular plants on the sites with fungal inventories in England. Based on the inventories in the Slapton Ley National Nature Reserve, there are about five- to six-times more species of fungi than species of vascular plants.

Study Area Observatory Hill (also called Little Saanich Mountain) is a hill 224 m high between Beaver/Elk and Prospect Lakes. Its elevation is 224 m above the sea level and the total area of the property is 71.4 ha. The plant communities are typical of the Coastal Douglas-fir Biogeoclimatic Zone. The drier western and southern slopes in the upper parts of Observatory Hill are open rock outcrops with a mosaic of mossy/grassy vegetation and several stands of Garry oak (Quercus garryana). The mixed forest of Observatory Hill can be classified as mid-successional (45-80 years). Forest age is a factor in determining species composition of macrofungi, especially of the mycorrhizal fungi. Chronosequence studies suggest that forest structure, slope and exposure are more important factors than age for certain species (Norvell & Exeter 2004). However, the greatest richness in species was found in more complex, late-successional mixed forests. Stands dominated by Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) are the major vegetation forest types in the study area. In the lower, colluvial slopes the forests belong to the Pseudotsuga menziesii – Gaultheria shallon and Pseudotsuga menziesii – Mahonia nervosa site series; whereas on the upper parts of the top plateau the forests belong to the drier Pseudotsuga menziesii – Melica subulata site series as defined by Green & Klinka (1994). The area at the eastern base of the hill below the access road is covered with wetter Douglas-fir forest (Thuja plicata – Eurhynchium oreganum site series) with scattered big-leaf maple (Acer macrophyllum). Big-leaf maple forms a small stand along a small ephemeral stream at the bottom of this area.

Methodology Between April 20, 2011, and March 23, 2012, we visited the study area 42 times: once in April (April 20), five times in May (May 4, 12, 18, 28 & 29), twice in June (June 15 & 30), twice in July (July 17 & 18), once in August (August 30), twice in September (September 8 & 28), three times in October (October 4, 18 & 25), six times in November (November 4, 10, 14, 15, 17 & 25), eight times in December (December 1, 6, 9, 10, 18, 19, 24 & 30), six times in January (4, 11, 16, 21, 23 & 27), three times in February (February 19, 22 & 27), and three times in March (March 8, 16 & 23).

For simplicity, three main ecosystems in the study area were distinguished: 1. the mosaic of open, mossy rock outcrops with Quercus garryana/Arbutus menziesii/Pseudotsuga menziesii patches or small stands; 2. the mixed drier forest with Pseudotsuga menziesii-Gaultheria shallon and Pseudotsuga menziesii-Mahonia nervosa; 3. the wetter forest with Pseudotsuga menziesii, Thuja plicata, and Acer macrophyllum. In my survey, I followed the Intuitive Controlled Survey Method as described by the United States Bureau of Land Management in their numerous survey manuals. The methodology of mycological surveys was described in Roberts et al. (2004) and also in Castellano et al. (1999). Voucher specimens for most of the species collected on the site were preserved and will be deposited in the University of British Columbia Herbarium in Vancouver, BC. Representative specimens were photographed. There is a general misunderstanding that macrofungi can be easily identified without using a microscope and only with the help of field guides. In fact, proper identification requires a

compound microscope and appropriate taxonomic literature with good keys. In some cases, specialized monographs that deal with only one genus are necessary for reliable identification. According to Castellano et al. (1999, p. M-3) “three to four days of lab work should be anticipated for each successful day of field work.” Our experience from this survey and other surveys shows that this statement is well justified.

Climate of the year 2011 Cold and wet weather of the first three months of 2011 continued through April. On April 15, the cold spell even brought some snow. Such a cold April spell with snow has been recorded at Victoria International Airport meteorological station only 11 times since 1940. Night temperatures were especially low, down to -5°C, and lasted for several nights. Day temperatures were also below normal. The weather did not warm up and the cool wet spring with temperatures below normal continued until June. The precipitation in May was significantly higher than the average (61.7 mm vs. 36.5 mm average). Meteorologists explained the cool spring as a possible ‘lingering’ effect of La Niña that would also result in precipitation higher than normal. While June 2011 was quite dry and normal for the temperature, July brought showers and not quite summer-like temperatures. The temperatures did not reach 20°C until the end of July. This time, the unusual cold summer was explained as a weather effect known as the “omega block” with a strong high pressure system to both east and west. It was said that this “omega block” tends to transition or change very slowly. It was forecast that as everything was delayed, the dry weather forecast would last until September. This forecast was correct, except that the beginning of September was cooler than the average and the warmest weather came only towards the end of September. October 2011 had still below average precipitation and as a result, the summer of 2011 was the second driest summer in our Observatory Hill survey. In October 2011, meteorologists predicted another La Niña system for the winter 2011/12. They said that “back-to-back” La Niña systems do happen, but not very often. The weather was predicted to be colder, with the air temperatures going down to 5°C below the normal. The first measurable snowfall in mid-November was seen as a start of predicted cold winter. This, however, did not happen. While November had its usual high precipitation, December was one of the driest Decembers on record. In normal years, December has higher precipitation than November. December 2011 was also sunnier and the temperatures were just slightly above average. The year ended with rather balmy, sunny weather and La Niña did not materialize. As everything was delayed in 2011, so was the cold winter. It came in the middle of January with snow and the temperatures plummeted to -6°C. This lasted several days before the weather pattern returned to the usual cold, rainy pattern. While February and March 2012 were unseasonally warm in eastern Canada, the temperatures in Victoria were below normal.

Current 2011/2012 collecting season The total number of macrofungi found during the survey on Observatory Hill in 2011/2012 was 492 species. Out of this number, 124 species (25%) were mycorrhizal, and the remaining 368 (75%) were non-mycorrhizal. Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) is the major mycorrhizal host tree, and there are about 2,000 fungal species that form mycorrhizal associations with this species throughout its area of distribution. Interesting, but also less known, are species that form mycorrhizal associations with arbutus (Arbutus menziesii). On the other hand, western red-cedar (Thuja plicata) and big-leaf maple (Acer macrophyllum) do not form mycorrhizal associations. The number of species in 2011/2012 was lower than the average of previous years that were influenced by the effect of El Niño and La Niña. The total number of species for 2011/2012 was about the same as total number of species in 2007/2008 and 2008/2009, before the effect of El Niño and La Niña. In means that the season of 2011/2012 was more “normal” in total number of species. The weather in the season 2011/2012 was quite unusual. The precipitation in spring was above average and May was exceptionally wet. Several mycorrhizal fungi, such as Cortinarius and Inocybe were collected in spring, but much larger numbers of species were resupinate fungi. By the end of May and through June, we were visiting the area along the creek on southern boundary, because the forest was drying out and by August and September was exceptionally dry. Unseasonal short rain in July triggered the growth of some interesting fungi, such as those on deer and rabbit dung. From the middle of July to the end of September the forest was too dry to have any mushroom growth. During that period we visited, once in August, the area along the ephemeral creek that is shaded, and the creek bed always has pockets of wet mud. There were few fungi, mostly resupinate fungi, but also those that like wet conditions with summer heat, such as Psathyrella candolleana. There was also a new interesting fungus, Simocybe sumptuosa, on a piece of wood that was partially stuck in mud. We were there again two times in September. The visit at the end of September brought five new species, including Amanita pachycolea. The other new species were mostly minute (e.g., Marasmius limosus). Although there was some rain in September, it was not enough for the growth of larger species. The dry weather continued till the end of October and even in that time, the most productive area was that along the ephemeral creek. In the middle of October, we saw the first occurrence of Russula xerampelina and Russula abietina in the forest on the higher slope. Several species of Mycena and Strobilurus trullisatus started to appear in the forest. More or less normal precipitation in November triggered the growth of numerous mushrooms. Immediately, there were many species of mushrooms everywhere. A small cold spell in the middle of November did not influence the fungal growth. Contrary to the prediction of the severe winter, December continued to be very productive, in spite of the record low precipitation. It seems that the unusually balmy temperatures and high rainfall in November resulted in still plentiful fungal growth in December.

Even the relatively large fungi such as some Cortinarius and Russula species were fruiting until the end of December. The new, unknown blue mushroom was collected on December 30. The temperature was cooling down in January 2012, and a cold spell with snow and frost finished most of the bigger fungi. On the other hand, it did not stop many small fungi, such as various ascomycetes and resupinate fungi. Most of these fungi are actually producing spores in this time of the year. In February and March 2012 small fungi such as Galerina and Mycena were growing, but also a few large ones, such as Inocybe assimilata and some spring species of Cortinarius were found. Since the beginning of March, some typical spring fungi, such as Gyromitra esculenta were seen. The number of new species for the 2011/2012 season was 87. It was the lowest number of new species for a season from the start of the project. There could be several reasons for this decrease: 1) Unusual weather. The fall growing was late, starting in late October. 2) November brought so many fungi at once that it was difficult to properly survey the whole area. It is therefore possible that some fungi could have been missed. 3) Although the number of visits to Observatory Hill was about the same as in the previous years, some routes had to be shortened just because of the large numbers of fungi in most of November 2011. 4) Most of the new species encountered now, after the first five years, tend to be very difficult to identify. The possibility of discovering new species for science is higher in the long-term studies. The identification is more time-consuming and leaves less time for the field work. 5) It is to be expected that the number of new species will eventually start to decline. Some studies noticed that such a decline of newly encountered species happens after about six years of studies (cf. Watling 1995). Due to the late start of the season, the number of species of some groups of fungi declined in comparison with previous years. Those were the following genera: Clitocybe, Hebeloma, Lepiota, Mycena. Interestingly, there was a decline of the number of species in the genus Hebeloma that had already been low in the 2010/2011 season. The non-mycorrhizal genus Galerina is the second most species-rich genus on Observatory Hill after the genus Mycena. In the 2011/2012, the number of Galerina species was again low as in the 2010/2011 season, probably due to the cold spell in mid-November in both instances. Many Galerina species are fragile and start fruiting later in the season. They are therefore easily damaged by frost or snow. There were only a few Galerina species in late November and December, except Galerina heterocystis which remained common throughout the winter.

The late start of the season did not have very much impact on the ectomycorrhizal species (except the genus Hebeloma). In spite of the delayed start of the fall season, for some genera such as Russula and Cortinarius, it was one of the better seasons in terms of the number of species found on Observatory Hill. This was because December 2011 was warmer than usual and even though it had much lower precipitation than usual, there was enough soil moisture in November. These unusual conditions allowed the fungi to continue producing fruiting bodies until the end of December. Interesting finds in late November 2011 were new species to Observatory Hill that have been known only from California, such as Russula ochroleuca and Tricholoma griseoviolaceum. In fall 2010, Boletus appendiculatus, which also grows in California, was collected on Observatory Hill. Cortinarius californicus, which occurs on Observatory Hill sporadically, was unusually common last fall. Is this an early indication of climate change? Judging from the 2011 climate diagram, one would not expect a good season for the fall mushroom growth. When we look at the 2011 climate diagram, there is a large area which indicates drought. This drought did not have the same effect as in the year 2006. In that year, there was almost no rain in July and August when the summer temperatures were at their highest. That was devastating for the coming fall season. In 2011 on the contrary, there was some rain in the summer months from June through August, and the hottest days only came towards the end of September. In September, when the precipitation was still unseasonally low, the drought was already over. Table 1 shows the effect of the abnormal weather pattern in 2011/2012 for the three sampled habitat types. The number of species in Garry oak habitats was the second highest since the start of this survey. This, again, might be a result of the La Niña cycle. On the other hand, the number of species in Douglas-fir habitats was lower in comparison with the two other habitat types.

Results and trends from long-term observations: winter 2004 through spring 2012 From November 2004 to the end of March 2012, a total of 1,107 species of macrofungi were identified and recorded from the study area. The cumulative growth of the number of species identified after each season is illustrated in Figure 3:

Figure 3. Cumulative increase of number of species found since the start of the surveys in 2004. (RED: newly recorded; BLUE: previously recorded)

The majority of the species found since 2004 were those species that have been found only in one season (Figure 4).This distribution follows the pattern described by Kendrick (2005) in other macrofungal collecting events. In the first year of the survey, the 2004/2005 season, the survey started too late and the data could serve only as a preliminary list. Since the 2005/2006 season, the Observatory Hill survey has yielded, on average, a total of 306 to 579 species per season. Mycorrhizal species formed a smaller portion (17 – 35%) of the total number of species (see Figures 5 & 6).

Figure 4. Number of species found in one, two, three, four, five, six, seven years, and every year. Fructification of fungi depends strongly on the climatic conditions, especially on the precipitation. Whereas the year 2005 was close to the 30-year climatic average, the year 2006 had an unusually long-lasting drought period in the summer and early fall. The years 2007 and 2008, on the other hand, did not have much of a drought period in the summer. There was an overall drop in number of fungi, especially the mycorrhizal fungi, in the dry year 2006, but a record number of fungi in the wet year 2007. As I mentioned earlier, the unusual combination of a few summer rains and the dry fall in 2008 resulted in a rather unusual and atypical group of species found in the 2008/2009 season. The 2010/2011 season was influenced by a La Niña cycle that followed an El Niño cycle of 2009/2010 season. High precipitation in September brought a record number of fungi, 579 species, the highest since the start of the project in 2004. 2011/2012 season was unusual in many ways. Meteorologists eventually classified that season as yet another La Niña cycle. They also forecasted a cold winter that never happened. Spring was cold and unusually wet. Summer was also cooler but not particularly dry because there were some showers. Fall rain was delayed until November after which there was an explosion of various kinds of fungi. December was drier and warmer, quite the opposite than the forecast. The total number of species for 2011/2012 was high, although not as high as in the previous two years of the full El Niño - La Niña cycles. The interesting thing was the decrease of new species on Observatory Hill. Until the 2011/2012 season, there were over 100 new species for Observatory Hill every year. In 2011/2012, on the other hand, it was only 87 new species. The possible reasons for that are discussed on page 8.

Figure 6. Percentage of mycorrhizal species found in each collecting season. Progress in the study of the ectomycorrhizal species is constantly increasing our knowledge of what species of fungi are observed to be associated with plants, mostly trees. This is done either by studying root-tip morphology, or by root-tip molecular identification using DNA sequencing. The research in this field is still far from complete. On the basis of a recent article on ectomycorrhizal fungal diversity (Comandini et al. 2012), I applied new evidence on ectomycorrhizal fungi to our data and the results are shown in Figure 5 & 6.

Based on the list in Comandini et al. (2012), I adjusted all the data since the start of the project in 2004. The major changes from previous lists result in the addition of several ascomycete genera, such a false morels, Peziza, etc., a few genera of resupinate fungi, such as Tomentella, and a few others. When I updated the counts, it changed the percentage of ectomycorrhizal fungi on Observatory Hill to about 17 to 35 % (from 14 to 27% before). Figure 6 also clearly shows the effect of extreme 2006 drought when the ectomycorrhizal species of fungi were at their lowest.

Several rare and interesting fungi found in the 2011/2012 survey Potentially new species for science Cortinarius sp.

In the fall of 2011, I made several collections of blood-red Cortinarius that I sent to Dr. Ammirati, a mycologist at the University of Washington (Seattle). He informed me that this particular fungus is a new species that he is in the process of describing. Unknown Blue Fungus

An “Unknown Blue Fungus” was growing on a decaying large Garry Oak log on December 30, 2011. It was immediately obvious that it was an important find. We contacted three mycologists who are experts in the family Entolomataceae where we placed it after our preliminary observation. They were Dr. M. Noordeloos in the Netherlands, Dr. T. Baroni in New York, and C. Schwarz in Santa Cruz, CA. To our surprise, none of these experts were able to recognize this fungus and they even argued about the family to which it would belong. We divided our collection and sent a portion to each of them. Even then, when they had seen this material, they were puzzled. We know that one cannot rely only on molecular

DNA techniques, but in this case, we hope that DNA sequencing would tell us more about the taxonomical position of this fungus. Species that are rarely collected in our area Cortinarius variicolor This is a large Cortinarius of the subgenus Phlegmacium. It was surprising to see a group of these large fungi (cap up to 7 cm in diameter) that I collected on December 19, 2011. It was evidence of a very unusual mild December. This fungus, when immature, has a bright blue cap and gills. Later, the color of the cap changes to ochre and only the margin of the cap remains lilac. Gills become reddish brown when spores ripen. This is a new species for Observatory Hill.

Cortinarius variicolor There were two other large species of Cortinarius (also subgen. Phlegmacium) found on Observatory Hill: Cortinarius infractus, found on December 18, 2011, and Cortinarius glaucopus in November 14, 2011.

It is quite unusual to have all these species occurring simultaneously in the same season. The majority of the other Cortinarius species on Observatory Hill belong to a taxonomically difficult subgenus Telamonia. Most of these are of medium or small size (see below).

Cortinarius sp. subgenus Telamonia Marasmius limosus The first sparse rains in September were good enough to trigger the growth of fungi, but only along the ephemeral creek along the southern boundary. This site is actually worth visiting even in the summer heat, because it is shaded and there are always pockets with some remaining moisture. We found many interesting, unusual, and often very small fungi there.

Marasmius limosus

One of them was this Marasmius limosus which grew in the hundreds on decaying leaves of Iris pseudacorus on the margin of a wetland along the southern boundary, on September 28, 2011. The cap of this fungus is usually less than 1.2 mm in diameter.

Hyaloscypha britannica This is a beautiful little ascomycete, found on May 4, 2011, growing on wet decaying Douglas-fir bark. It is very small, less than 1 mm in diameter. It is white and the hairs on the margin are covered with lumps of amber resin. The pictures were taken by a dental camera.

Hyaloscypha britannica Fungi on bark of living trees of Garry oak (Quercus garryana) In our maritime climate, mosses and lichens grow in abundance on bark of living Garry oak trees. In January 2012, we were lucky to find four species of fungi which specialize in growing on the bark of Garry oak. All of them were new to Observatory Hill. One of them, Dendrothele candida, was known to us and we have been looking for it on Observatory Hill for several years. We finally found it, growing only on one oak tree, but in abundance. It is a resupinate fungus that grows in fissures of bark of older oaks.

Dendrothele candida

Three other fungi were gilled species (Mycena corticola, Phaeomarasmius rimulincola, and Pleuroflammula ragazziana) and we found them only because we were focused on finding the above mentioned Dendrothele candida.

Mycena corticola They were all quite small, their caps being less than 5 mm in diameter. They also like to grow in bark fissures where the moisture stays longer or as long as needed for their life cycle. With their fragile existence, we were extremely lucky to see them. They grew on the small group of oaks just below the hut of the Royal Canadian Astronomical Society. After this discovery, we have been looking for them on many other Garry oak trees, but without any success.

Phaeomarasmius rimulincola

Fungi on fungi (mycoparasites - some new finds of Tremella species) The genus Tremella belongs to the group of fungi called jelly fungi. They were extensively studied by the late Dr. Bandoni, former professor of mycology at the University of British Columbia. These jelly fungi belong taxonomically to a primitive group in which basidium, a cell that bears spores, is divided by longitudinal septa into two to four cells. Most species of the genus Tremella that occur on Observatory Hill grow on decaying wood.

Page 21: A survey of macrofungi on observatory hill – spring 2011 and winter 2011   2012

O. Ceska - A Survey of Macrofungi on Observatory Hill: Spring 2011 and Winter 2011/2012

21

Dr. Bandoni discovered in his studies that even those species that seemingly grow on wood, in fact parasitized other fungi. The host species usually belong to the genus Stereum or other jelly fungi or various resupinate fungi. There were three new Tremella species collected on Observatory Hill in the last season: Tremella aurantia, a parasite on Stereum hirsutum, was observed several times during the 2011/2012 season; Tremella moriformis, for which no obvious fungal host was seen, probably grows on some resupinate fungus, such as Peniophora sp. that grew on Scotch broom; Tremella obscura, a parasite on witch’s butter (Dacrymyces sp.) is most likely very rare.

Fungi on dung Fungi growing on dung, excrement of herbivores and carnivores, are a specialized group of macrofungi. The dung is a substrate much changed from the original material that has passed through the digestive tract. Its nutrient content is different. Animal dung is divided into that

Page 22: A survey of macrofungi on observatory hill – spring 2011 and winter 2011   2012

O. Ceska - A Survey of Macrofungi on Observatory Hill: Spring 2011 and Winter 2011/2012

22

of herbivores and that of carnivores. Their chemistry and the fungi associated with them are generally different. Fungi on the dung produced by herbivores are preferred for studies. Mycologists who study dung fungi incubate collected dung in laboratory conditions. In Victoria, the weather conditions in the July 2011 were ideal to look for these fungi directly in nature. After the dry June, there were rain showers and warm days in the middle of July to trigger the dung fungi to grow.

Coprinellus heptemerus

There is no lack of deer and rabbit pellets on Observatory Hill. Generally, dung fungi that grow on deer or rabbit pellets are small in size. Most of them, in fact, can be better seen with a magnifying lens. The majority of them belong to the ascomycetes, but two small basidiomycetes (Coprinellus heptemerus and Coprinopsis stercorea) were also seen. The dung fungi are variously adapted to this specialized life cycle. They need moisture for growing, but because they produce fruiting bodies on the surface of dung, some of them have hairs that help to slow the drying out (e.g., Lasiobolus and Pseudombrophila). Some produce spores that have a thick layer of gelatinous material on the spore surface, again, to prevent damage to the spore as a result of drying out (e.g., Sordaria and Sporormiella). When dung fungi are cultivated artificially, the succession of different species can be observed. That is most likely due to changes in the nutrient composition of the substrate, and one set of species is being replaced with another, according to their respective nutrient requirements. However, this whole process is still little known. It has been speculated that the fungi, rather than bacteria, play the major role in decomposing dung in the natural environment.

The following species were found in deer or rabbit dung in summer 2011: Ascobolus furfuraceus, Coprinellus heptemerus, Coprinopsis stercorea, Lasiobolus cuniculi, Pseudombrophila cervaria, Sordaria fimicola, Sporormiella australis, and Thelebolus stercoreus.

Update to the 2010/2011 Report

Claudopus byssisedus The first fruiting bodies were observed on November 15, 2011. There was only one clump of fruiting bodies and they did not last long. It was a similar situation as to last year. Besides this locality we observed Claudopus byssisedus on two other sites on Observatory Hill, but both sites had only a single specimen each. It is possible that the destruction of the original site on the road cut was more severe due to heavy rains in previous years.

Tubaria punicea The first fruiting was observed on October 25, 2011. There was only one clump of it on the marked tree. On November 10, there were several fruiting bodies on the same tree, but by the end of November, there were none. On December 9, there were three clumps and on December 30, there were still several fruiting bodies. Then there was no fruiting until March 6, 2012, when one small fruiting body appeared.

Discussion Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) is exceptionally rich in symbiotic relationships. As many as 2000 species may be associated with it throughout its area of distribution (Trappe 1977). Arbutus (Arbutus menziesii) is probably also quite rich in mycorrhizal species, but no extensive studies have been done on it because it has no commercial value as timber. In our area, Garry oak (Quercus garryana) is disappointingly poor in forming symbiotic relationships in comparison with other parts of their area of distribution in Washington, Oregon and California. Lesser components of mixed forest on Observatory Hill, such as grand fir (Abies grandis), are also mycorrhizal, but probably less important in terms of their mycorrhizal associations. Western red-cedar (Thuja plicata) and big-leaf maple (Acer macrophyllum) are considered trees without fungal symbiosis and their stands host mostly saprophytic or wood-decaying fungi. On the margin of this forest higher up the slope or directly below the summit of the hill, arbutus (Arbutus menziesii) and Garry oak (Quercus garryana) come into contact with Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii). This transition is usually the richest in fungal diversity and it hosts many mycorrhizal macrofungi. On Observatory Hill, patches or even small stands of pure Quercus garryana are relatively poor in terms of their fungal component. This is very surprising because oak forests including those of Garry oak are known to be rich in fungi within their area of distribution in Washington, Oregon and California. Mossy open rock outcrops and grassy meadows have specific but not very diverse mycoflora. However,

Page 25: A survey of macrofungi on observatory hill – spring 2011 and winter 2011   2012

in the year 2010, the unusual weather conditions due to La Niña resulted in the appearance for the first time of some species known to be associated with Garry oak, such as Boletus appendiculatus, Clavariadelphus occidentalis, Cortinarius turmalis, Hygrophorus sordidus, and Russula brunneoviolacea. Various fungal inventory studies demonstrate that there is a relatively small number of common fungi that occur every year (Kendrick 2005). The majority of fungi are uncommon or rare, and they occur only in some years. In order to get a better picture of the biodiversity of fungi, it is necessary to conduct long-term studies wherein the same area is visited and fungi identified for many years. Some studies of this kind have already been done and species of fungi were collected that had not been seen for decades. The Pseudotsuga menziesii forests of the Washington and Oregon coasts have been studied in recent years (Norvell & Exeter 2004), but it is difficult to compare them with our drier version of Pseudotsuga menziesii forests that are usually mixed with Arbutus menziesii and Quercus garryana. The most species-rich genera of fungi there are Cortinarius, Inocybe and Russula. Unfortunately, the species belonging to these genera are difficult to identify. Determining the overall frequency or rarity of encountered species on Southern Vancouver Island is very difficult. To our knowledge, no inventory of mycoflora has been done for dry Douglas-fir/Arbutus forests. Pamela Janszen of Saturna Island compiled a macrofungi inventory of Saturna Island Ecological Reserve for the Friends of Ecological Reserves, and she also made an inventory of Winter Cove Park (Saturna Island) for British Columbia Parks. Both inventories were done from August 30, 1997, to January 29, 2000. In 30 visits to the Ecological Reserve and 22 trips to the Winter Cove Park, she identified 200 and 117 species of macrofungi, respectively. Dr. Ian Gibson, a member of the South Vancouver Island Mycological Society (SVIMS), keeps a list of species known from Southern Vancouver Island. It is based on herbarium collections housed in the Pacific Forestry Centre on Burnside Rd. in Victoria, in herbarium collections at UBC, and in various personal collections. It also incorporates material seen on annual mushroom shows organized by SVIMS in Victoria and various SVIMS forays. This list also indicates which species are abundant (a), common (c), uncommon (u), and rare (r). Gibson’s list is a work in progress, and it is far from being complete. Our list of species from Observatory Hill has the rare species (as defined by the SVIMS lists) marked with a single asterisk. Out of these, the species marked with two asterisks are those species which are, indeed, very rare or which have not been seen before in our area. Long-term surveys are needed in order to obtain a “complete” list of macrofungi from a given area. Previous studies showed that the surveys for macrofungi could yield new species even after decades of surveying. In our Clayoquot Sound study (Roberts et. al. 2004) we were finding about the same number of new, previously-not-encountered species every year of our survey. This indicates that long-term surveys are needed in order to obtain a good picture of the mycoflora of any area of interest.

Some ramifications of this study My mycofloristic inventory of Observatory Hill got some public exposure when GOERT made the 2009/2010 report available to the public on their web site: http://www.goert.ca/documents/Macrofungi-Observatory-Hill-2009-2010.pdf As an example, the Matheny et al. 2007 paper (I am a co-author) and my Observatory Hill reports triggered a strong interest among Californian mycologists. They started to look for Tubaria punicea and found about ten new sites for this fungus, of which only one site was previously known from California. A new distribution map of Tubaria punicea has been generated from the data in the “Mushroom Observer” web site:

http://mushroomobserver.org/location/map_locations?q=3woD

Our find of Squamanita paradoxa was reported in the Times-Colonist on December 30, 2009, and in several other newspapers in western Canada. It was noticed by mycologists in both North America and Europe. Our field photo of Squamanita paradoxa appeared in Matheny, P.B. & G.W. Griffith. 2010. Mycoparasitism between Squamanita paradoxa and Cystoderma amianthinum (Cystodermateae, Agaricales). Mycoscience 51: 456-461. In July 2008, I provided Dr. Mary Berbee (UBC) with about 200 specimens of the genus Cortinarius for the DNA study she is conducting in cooperation with Dr. Joe Ammirati (University of Washington, Seattle). In July 2009, I donated to the UBC herbarium another 100 specimens of the genus Cortinarius for their DNA study. In summer 2010, more collections of the Cortinarius and Inocybe genera were delivered to the University of British Columbia herbarium for their DNA studies (over 250 specimens). About 30% of these specimens came from our Observatory Hill project. In fact, repeated collection of one species from Observatory Hill revealed some interesting peculiarities that would have gone undetected with just a single sample. Preliminary results of this Cortinarius study suggest

that in my collections from Observatory Hill there is at least one new, as yet undescribed, Cortinarius species, in addition to Cortinarius parkeri Ammirati, Seidl & Ceska which has been published in the journal Botany: Joseph F. Ammirati, Tess E Barlow, Michelle T. Seidl, Oldriska Ceska, Mary Berbee, Emma Harrower & Kare Liimatainen. 2012. Cortinarius parkeri, a new species from the Pacific Northwest of North America. Botany 90(4): 327-335. Emma Harrower, a UBC graduate student, who worked with Dr. Mary Berbee on the DNA screening and taxonomy of the genus Cortinarius in British Columbia collections, finished her Cortinarius study and the results were published in the journal Botany: Emma Harrower, Joseph F. Ammirati, Adam A. Cappuccino, Oldriska Ceska, J.M. Kranabetter, Paul Kroeger, Seara Lim, Terry Taylor & Mary L. Berbee. 2011. Cortinarius species diversity in British Columbia and molecular phylogenetic comparison with European specimen sequences. Botany 89(11): 799-810. The Observatory Hill area has been ideal for following the phenology of Tubaria punicea and Claudopus byssisedus. Indeed, the material of Tubaria punicea from Observatory Hill was crucial to the solution of the taxonomic problems of this genus (see Matheny et al. 2007).
