Edmond Tulasne

French mycologist (1815-1885).

Louis René Étienne Tulasne, a.k.a. Edmond Tulasne (12 September 1815 – 22 December 1885) was a French botanist and mycologist born in Azay-le-Rideau. He originally studied law at Poitiers, but his interest later turned to botany. As a young man he assisted botanist Auguste de Saint-Hilaire (1779–1853) with studies of Brazilian flora. From 1842 until 1872 he worked as a naturalist at the Muséum national d'histoire naturelle in Paris. In 1854 he succeeded Adrien-Henri de Jussieu (1797–1853) as a member of the Académie des sciences. He died in Hyères on 22 December 1885, age 70. Tulasne's specia

Claviceps purpurea (Ergot Fungus) (Fr.) Tul. 1853
fungi species in the clavicipitaceae family
Claviceps purpurea is an ergot fungus that grows on the ears of rye and related cereal and forage plants. Consumption of grains or seeds contaminated with the survival structure of this fungus, the ergot sclerotium, can cause ergotism in humans and other mammals. C. purpurea most commonly affects outcrossing species such as rye (its most common host), as well as triticale, wheat and barley. It affects oats only rarely.
Claviceps (Ergot) Tul. 1853
fungi genus in the clavicipitaceae family
Ergot, or ergot fungi, is a group of fungi of the genus Claviceps. The most prominent member of this group is Claviceps purpurea (rye ergot fungus). This fungus grows on rye and related plants, and produces alkaloids that can cause ergotism in humans and other mammals who consume grains contaminated with its fruiting structure (called ergot sclerotium). Claviceps includes about 50 known species, mostly in the tropical regions. Economically significant species include C. purpurea (parasitic on grasses and cereals), C. fusiformis (on pearl millet, buffel grass), C. paspali (on dallis grass), C.
Erysiphaceae (Powdery Mildew Fungi) Tul. & C. Tul. 1861
fungi family in the order helotiales
Erysiphaceae (commonly known as powdery mildews) is a family of ascomycete fungi in the order Helotiales. The members of this family are obligate parasites with a superficial mycelium that forms a characteristic white, powdery coating on their host plants. The family contains seventeen genera and around a thousand species. Combined they infect over 10,000 species of plants, many of which are commercially valuable.
Nectriaceae (Tuberculariaceae) Tul. & C. Tul. 1865
fungi family in the order hypocreales
The Nectriaceae are a family of fungi in the order Hypocreales. The group was first circumscribed in 1865 by the French mycologists Charles and Louis Tulasne. According to a 2020 taxonomic review published in the journal Mycosphere, the family comprised 70 recognized genera and approximately 1,336 species. It is a highly diverse group with a worldwide distribution and it has higher diversity in warm temperate and tropical regions (Rossman et al. 1999; Rossman 2000; Chaverri et al. 2011, Schroers et al. 2011, Hyde et al. 2014, Lombard et al. 2015,). Several authors have studied and revised the
Taphrina pruni (Pocket Plum) (Fuckel) Tul. 1866
fungi species in the taphrinaceae family
Taphrina pruni is a fungal plant pathogen of blackthorn (Prunus spinosa) that causes the pocket or bladder plum gall, a chemically induced distortion of the fruit (sloes), producing swollen on one side, otherwise deformed and flattened fruit gall without a stone. The twigs on infected plants may also be deformed with small strap-shaped leaves.
Hypomyces chrysospermus (Bolete Mold) (Bull.) Tul. & C. Tul. 1860
fungi species in the hypocreaceae family
Hypomyces chrysospermus, the bolete eater, is a parasitic ascomycete fungus that grows on bolete mushrooms, turning the afflicted host a whitish, golden yellow, or tan color. It is found in Eurasia and North America, as well as southwest Western Australia. Bolete eater and its afflicted host mushrooms are not edible and may be poisonous.
Ustilaginaceae Tul. & C. Tul. 1847
fungi family in the order ustilaginales
The Ustilaginaceae are a family of smut fungi in the order Ustilaginomycetes. Collectively, the family contains 17 genera and 607 species.
Xylariaceae Tul. & C. Tul. 1863
fungi family in the order xylariales
The Xylariaceae are a family of mostly small ascomycetous fungi. It is one of the most commonly encountered groups of ascomycetes and is found throughout the temperate and tropical regions of the world. They are typically found on wood, seeds, fruits, or plant leaves, some even associated with insect nests. Most decay wood and many are plant pathogens. One example of this family is King Alfred's Cake (Daldinia concentrica). Phylogenetic analyses published in 2009 suggest that there are two main lineages in this family, Hypoxyloideae and Xylarioideae.
Tilletia Tul. & C. Tul. 1847
fungi genus in the tilletiaceae family
Tilletia is a genus of smut fungi in the Tilletiaceae family. Species in this genus are plant pathogens that affect various grasses. Tilletia indica, which causes Karnal bunt of wheat, and Tilletia horrida, responsible for rice kernel smut, are examples of species that affect economically important crops. The widespread genus contains about 175 species. The genus was circumscribed by Edmond Tulasne and Charles Tulasne in Ann. Sci. Nat. Bot. ser.3, vol.7 on page 112 in 1847. The genus was named after a agronomist from France, Mathieu Tillet (1714–1791).
Hypomyces (Fr.) Tul. & C. Tul. 1860
fungi genus in the hypocreaceae family
Hypomyces is a genus of parasitic ascomycete fungi found in Europe, North America, Australia, and parts of China. The genus contains 53 species. Better known species include the lobster mushroom (Hypomyces lactifluorum) and the bolete eater (Hypomyces chrysospermus).
Tilletiaceae (Bunts) Tul. & C. Tul. 1847
fungi family in the order tilletiales
The Tilletiales are an order of smut fungi in the class Exobasidiomycetes. It is a monotypic order, consisting of a single family, the Tilletiaceae, which contains seven genera. The roughly 150 species in the Tilletiales all infect hosts of the grass family, except for species of Erratomyces, which occur on legumes.
Taphrina deformans (Peach Leaf Curl) (Berk.) Tul. 1866
fungi species in the taphrinaceae family
Taphrina deformans is a fungus and plant pathogen, and a causal agent[s] of peach leaf curl. Peach trees infected with T. deformans will experience leaf puckering and distortion, acquiring a characteristic downward and inward curl. Leaves will also undergo chlorosis, turning a pale green or yellow, and later show a red or purple tint. Fruit can either drop prematurely or show surface distortions. Severe infection can also produce lesions on the flowers. The host tree will experience defoliation if the leaves are badly diseased. If a seedling is severely infected, it may die. Almond trees
Hypomyces lateritius (Ochre Gillgobbler) (Fr.) Tul. & C. Tul. 1860
fungi species in the hypocreaceae family
Hypomyces lateritius, the ochre gillgobbler, is a parasitic ascomycete fungus that grows on certain species of Lactarius mushrooms, improving their flavor and densifying the flesh. Hosts include L. camphoratus, L. chelidonium, L. controversus, L. deliciosus, L. indigo, L. rufus, L. salmonicolor, L. sanguifluus, L. semisanguifluus, L. tabidus, L. trivialis, and L. vinosus. It is a microscopic fungus causing the formation of a macroscopic whitish subiculum over the hymenium of its host species, preventing gill formation. Presence of H. lateritius also often deforms the cap and stipe.
Hypomyces lactifluorum (Lobster Mushroom) (Schwein.) Tul. & C. Tul. 1860
fungi species in the hypocreaceae family
Hypomyces lactifluorum, or the lobster mushroom, is a parasitic ascomycete fungus that grows on certain species of mushrooms, turning them a reddish orange color that resembles the outer shell of a cooked lobster. The fungus is edible.
Glomus Tul. & C. Tul. 1845
fungi genus in the glomeraceae family
Glomus is a genus of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, all of its species forming symbiotic relationships (mycorrhizae) with plant roots.
Crucibulum Tul. & C. Tul. 1844
fungi genus
Crucibulum is a genus in the Nidulariaceae, a family of fungi whose fruiting bodies resemble tiny egg-filled bird's nests. Often called "splash cups", the fruiting bodies are adapted for spore dispersal by using the kinetic energy of falling drops of rain. The "eggs" inside the bird's nests (technically known as peridioles) are hard waxy shells containing spores, and tend to stick to whatever nearby herbage they land on, thus increasing the odds of being consumed and dispersed by herbivorous animals. Members of this genus are saprobic, obtaining nutrients from dead organic matter, and are
Sebacina incrustans (Enveloping Crust) (Pers.) Tul. & C. Tul. 1871
fungi species in the sebacinaceae family

Coleosporium tussilaginis (Pers.) Tul. 1854
fungi species in the coleosporiaceae family
Coleosporium tussilaginis is a species of rust fungus in the family Coleosporiaceae. It is a plant pathogen. It is known to infect Campanula rotundifolia, on which it produces urediniospores and teliospores.
Terfezia (Desert Truffles) (Tul. & C. Tul.) Tul. & C. Tul. 1851
fungi genus in the pezizaceae family
Terfezia (Berber: Tirfas) is a genus of truffle-like fungi within the Pezizaceae family. Terfezia species are commonly known as desert truffles. Some authorities consider this the type genus of the family Terfeziaceae, although phylogenetic analysis suggests that it nests within the Pezizaceae. The Dictionary of the Fungi (10th edition, 2008) suggests that the genus contains 12 species. A recent (2011) publication used molecular analysis to show that the American Terfezia species had been incorrectly classified, and moved Terfezia spinosa and Terfezia longii to Mattirolomyces and Stouffera,
Ileodictyon cibarium (Basket Fungus) Tul. & C. Tul. 1844
edible fungi species in the phallaceae family
Ileodictyon cibarium is a saprotrophic species of fungus in the family Phallaceae. It is native to Australia and New Zealand, where it is commonly known as the basket fungus or the white basket fungus, alluding to its fruit bodies, shaped like a round or oval ball with interlaced or latticed branches, resembling polyhedra similar to closed fullerenes. Although the immature spherical fruitbodies are reportedly edible, the mature fruit body is foul-smelling and partly covered with a slime layer containing spores (gleba) on the inner surfaces.
Eutypa lata (Pers.) Tul. & C. Tul. 1863
fungi species in the diatrypaceae family
Eutypa lata is a fungal plant pathogen of grapevines. The fungus also attacks many other hosts such as cherry trees, most other Prunus species, as well as apples, pears and walnuts. In apricots, the fungus reveals a canker surrounding a pruning wound. Eutypa lata was first found in Californian grapevines by English et al.1962, a few years after its discovery elsewhere. Travadon et al., 2011 finds that E. lata is an entirely or almost entirely sexual population here but asexual reproduction may be a rare occurrence. It causes 'Eutypa dieback' in New Zealand grapevines as well. The fungus was
Eutypa Tul. & C. Tul. 1863
fungi genus in the diatrypaceae family
Eutypa is a genus of fungi in the family Diatrypaceae. The widespread genus was estimated to contain 32 species in 2008, and then 68 by 2023. Anamorphic forms include the genera Libertella and Cytosporina. The genus was circumscribed in 1863 by the French mycologists and brothers Louis and Charles Tulasne. Some species are frequently found as phytopathogens (parasitic organisms) of grape crops.
Tilletia caries (Stinking Smut) (DC.) Tul. & C. Tul. 1847
fungi species in the tilletiaceae family
Tilletia caries (synonymous with Tilletia tritici) is a basidiomycete that causes common bunt of wheat. The common names of this disease are stinking bunt of wheat and stinking smut of wheat. This pathogen infects wheat, rye, and various other grasses. T. caries is economically and agriculturally important because it reduces both the wheat yield and grain quality.
Stephensia Tul. & C. Tul. 1845
fungi genus in the pyronemataceae family
Stephensia is a genus of fungi in the family Pyronemataceae. It is treated by some as a synonym of Hydnocystis, with the type species, S. bombycina, being transferred to Hydnocystis.

Ileodictyon (Buckyball Fungus) Tul. 1844
fungi genus in the phallaceae family
Ileodictyon is a genus of fungi in the family Phallaceae. Basidiocarps (fruit bodies) are clathroid (resembling those in the genus Clathrus), emerging from egg-like peridia and forming spongy "arms" which connect to create a cage-like lattice. The basidiospores on the arms are covered by a foetid slime that attracts flies, the agents of spore dispersal. There are three named species (Ileodictyon cibarium, Ileodictyon giganteum, Ileodictyon gracile), and one currently unnamed. The unnamed species, called "the green cage fungus", is endemic to New Caledonia and is considered globally
Glomus macrocarpum (Large-spored Pea Truffle) Tul. & C. Tul. 1844
fungi species in the glomeraceae family
Glomus macrocarpum is a vesicular-arbuscular endomycorrhizal plant pathogen in the Glomeraceae family of fungi. Also occasionally known as Endogone macrocarpa, G. macrocarpum is pathogenic to multiple plants, including tobacco and chili plants. G. macrocarpum was first discovered in the French woodlands by the Tulasne brothers in the early to mid 1800s. Their first known description of G. macrocarpum was published in the New Italian Botanical Journal in 1845. G. macrocarpum has since been documented in over 26 countries, including Australia, China, and Japan for example. G. macrocarpum is
Taphrina caerulescens (Oak Leaf Blister) (Desm. & Mont.) Tul. 1866
fungi species in the taphrinaceae family
Taphrina caerulescens is a species of fungus in the family Taphrinaceae. It is a pathogenic Ascomycete fungus that causes oak leaf blister disease on various species of oak trees (Quercus spp.). The associated anamorph species is Lalaria coccinea, described in 1990. This disease causes lesions and blisters on Oak leaves. Effects of the disease are mostly cosmetic. Although not taxonomically defined, strains of T. caerulescens have been shown to be host specific with varying ¬ascus morphology between strains. There are differences in strains' abilities to metabolize various carbon and nitrogen
