On a branch of a broad-leaved tree, probably alder, two new species for The Netherlands were recorded, growing very close together. The first species, Peyronelina glomerulata is an asexual fungus with affinities in the cyphelloid fungi. The second species, Pseudolasiobolus minutissimus, is also a...

This paper introduces Tulasnella anguifera as a new species for The Netherlands. This species is characterized by the presence of clamps and the spores which are spiralling in multiple directions. It was found growing extensively in several moist chambers with bark of Juniperus communis which was...

Rarely recorded gall midges from three locations in central and eastern provinces of the Netherlands Dronten (province of Flevoland), Loenen (province of Gelderland) and Zwolle (province of Overijssel) - are discussed. A checklist of Roskam & Carbonnelle (2015) with recorded gall midges in the...

Reported are two locations with Cytisus striatus at military areas, viz. the training area at the Galderse Heide and the military airbase Woensdrecht Province of Noord-Brabant. Cytisus striatus is native to the Iberian Peninsula and has been introduced by sowing in France, Great Britain, Germany,...

In 2011 the rare jewel beetle Agrilus ater was found in the south of the province of Limburg. This was the first time that this species was recorded for the Netherlands. Since then, the species has been spreading towards the province of Noord-Brabant. This is in line with observations in Belgium,...

The Aphyllophorales working group "Cristella" met over the first weekend of November 2014, in the hamlet Roelage, province of Groningen. An astonishing 523 taxa (incl. Myxomycetes) were found over the weekend, 40 of which were new to the province or even The Netherlands. Several of these rarities...

The fungus mapping program in The Netherlands recently requires microscopical confirmation of records of fungi with macroscopic look-alikes. This requirement, however, in practice often involves only the rarer species. In this paper the author argues that the same requirement should hold for the...

Recent finds of two ectomycorrhizal-forming fungi with Pinus, viz. Tricholoma focale and Sarcodon squamosus, are described. The rare Cortinarius purpureus was found in the same locality.

A short overview is given of a difficult to recognize group of resupinate fungi: Dendrothele. One collection appears to be a species new to science.

Discinella meziesii is included in the Dutch checklist as a rather rare bryophilous discomycete. The name turnes out to be misinterpreted, and the species in question has recently been described as new: Roseodiscus formosus Wieschollek, Helleman, Baral & T. Richter.
