Fungi named in 1875

Venturia inaequalis is an ascomycete fungus that causes the apple scab disease.

Spinellus fusiger, commonly known as bonnet mold, is a species of fungus in the phylum Mucoromycota. It is a pin mold that is characterized by erect sporangiophores (specialized hyphae that bear a sporangium) that are simple in structure, brown or yellowish-brown in color, and with branched aerial filaments that bear the zygospores. It grows as a parasitic mold on mushrooms, including several species from the genera Mycena, including M. haematopus, M. pura, M. epipterygia, M. leptocephala, and various Collybia species, such as C. alkalivirens, C. luteifolia, C. dryophila, and C. butyracea.

Inocybe corydalina var. corydalina, commonly known as the greenflush fibrecap, is a member of the genus Inocybe which is widely distributed in temperate forests. It is a small mycorrhizal mushroom which contains a small amount of the hallucinogen psilocybin.

Uromyces viciae-fabae var. viciae-fabae is a plant pathogen commonly known as faba-bean rust. The rust is distinguished by the typical rust-like marks on the stem and leaves, causing defoliation and loss of photosynthetic surface along with reduction in yield. The disease is fungal and is autoecious meaning it has one plant host. The rust of faba beans is macrocyclic, or contains 5 spores during its life cycle.

Mycena cyanorrhiza is a small white mushroom which has blue colors. Unlike hallucinogenic mushrooms, the blue color is not related to psilocin polymerization. It grows in forests on wood and has a white spore print.

Leocarpus fragilis is a myxogastrid or acellular slime mold of the genus Leocarpus. The common name in English is insect-egg slime mold. L.fragilis can be found on leaf litter, typically in temperate and boreal forests where the ground litter is acidic. It has been found on all continents except Antarctica but is most commonly found in the northern hemisphere. Its round fruiting bodies are a recognizable yellow, orange-brown.

Anthostomella is a genus of fungi in the family Xylariaceae. The ascomata are simple and contain only a single perithecium.

Spinellus is a genus of fungi in the Phycomycetaceae family. The widely distributed genus contains three species of pin mold that are parasitic on agaric mushrooms. The genus was circumscribed by Phillippe Edouard Leon van Tieghem in 1875.

Stropharia albonitens is an inedible mushroom found in grassy fields, lawns, and frequently along roadsides in North America and Europe. The spore print is purplish to black. It is white to cream or yellow in colour. It is typically 5 to 15 cm long with a ring on its stem and grows from July to November. The spores are ellipsoid and range in measurement from 8–9 × 4–5 µm. This species was published in Champs Jura Vosges 3: 439 (1875) and was originally named Agaricus albonitens in 1857 by Elias Magnus Fries.

Rhizopus microsporus is a fungal plant pathogen infecting maize, sunflower, and rice. A domesticated variant of this species is used in the preparation of traditional soy fermentation such as tempeh and sufu (see Rhizopus oligosporus). It can also cause a nosocomial infection and necrosis to the infected area, particularly prevalent in pre-term infants. This fungus contains the bacterial endosymbiont Paraburkholderia rhizoxinica that produces the antitumor drug rhizoxin.

Mucor circinelloides is a dimorphic fungus belonging to the Order Mucorales (Phylum Mucoromycota). It has a worldwide distribution, found mostly in soil, dung and root vegetables. This species is described as not known to be able to produce mycotoxins, however it has been frequently reported to infect animals such as cattle and swine, as well as fowl, platypus and occasionally humans. Ketoacidotic patients are particularly at risk for infection by M. circinelloides.

Eutypella is a genus of fungi in the family Diatrypaceae. The fungi Eutypella sp. contains hexahydrobenzopyrans such as libertellenone which has been studied for its antibacterial and antiviral properties.

Cladonia macrophyllodes, commonly known as the large-leaved cladonia or the large-leaved cup lichen, is a species of cup lichen in the family Cladoniaceae.

Euopsis is a small genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Harpidiaceae. The genus contains two species. The genus was established in 1881 by the Finnish lichenologist William Nylander, who transferred species from the genus Pyrenopsis based on differences in their reproductive structures. These lichens form dark reddish-brown crusts that become jelly-like when wet and grow primarily on damp, acidic rock faces and mossy surfaces.

Buellia erubescens, the common button lichen, is a species of lichen in the genus Buellia. It is found commonly on the bark and occasionally on the wood of Quercus, Pinus, Juniperus, or other species of trees with bark that has generally low pH. It is common between 600 and 3,000 m (2,000 and 9,800 ft) elevation, and is common in submontane to subalpine forests.

Astrocystis is a genus of fungi in the family Xylariaceae.

Ascochyta sorghi is a fungal plant pathogen. It causes Ascochyta leaf spot (also known as rough leaf spot) on barley that can also be caused by the related fungi Ascochyta hordei, Ascochyta graminea and Ascochyta tritici. It is considered a minor disease of barley.

Usnea scabrata, the straw beard lichen, is a pale grayish-yellowish green, slender, pendant, branching from the base, unequally branching, shrubby fruticose lichen that grows from holdfasts on trees. It is warty with abundant isidia. It resembles Usnea filipendula.

Thyridaria is a genus of fungi in the class Dothideomycetes. The relationship of this taxon to other taxa within the class is unknown (incertae sedis). Also, the placement of this genus within the Dothideomycetes is uncertain. The genus was first described by Pier Andrea Saccardo in 1875.

Septoria menthae is a fungal plant pathogen infecting mint. It is the causal organism of mint leafspot.
