Fungi named in 1918

Hygrophorus russula, commonly known as the pinkmottle woodwax, false russula, or russula-like waxy cap, is a species of fungus native to the Northern Hemisphere.

Aspergillus terreus, also known as Aspergillus terrestris, is a fungus (mold) found worldwide in soil. Although thought to be strictly asexual until recently, A. terreus is now known to be capable of sexual reproduction. This saprotrophic fungus is prevalent in warmer climates such as tropical and subtropical regions. Aside from being located in soil, A. terreus has also been found in habitats such as decomposing vegetation and dust. A. terreus is commonly used in industry to produce important organic acids, such as itaconic acid and cis-aconitic acid, as well as enzymes, like xylanase. It

Aureobasidium pullulans is a ubiquitous and generalistic black, yeast-like fungus that can be found in different environments (e.g. soil, water, air and limestone). It is well known as a naturally occurring epiphyte or endophyte of a wide range of plant species (e.g. apple, grape, cucumber, green beans, cabbage) without causing any symptoms of disease. A. pullulans has a high importance in biotechnology for the production of different enzymes, siderophores and pullulan. Furthermore, A. pullulans is used in biological control of plant diseases, especially storage diseases. Chronic human

Amanita brunnescens, also known as the brown American star-footed amanita or cleft-footed amanita is a native North American mushroom of the large genus Amanita. It differs from A. phalloides (the death cap) by its fragile volva and tendency to bruise brown.

Hypogymnia tubulosa is a species of foliose lichen in the family Parmeliaceae. Ludwig Emanuel Schaerer formally described it in 1840 as a variety of Parmelia ceratophylla. Johan Johnsen Havaas promoted it to distinct species status in 1918. The lichenicolous fungus Tremella tubulosae, described as a new species in 2020, has been recorded in Scotland and Spain. It causes the formation of distinct, convex, dark brown to blackish galls on the surface of the host thallus.

Apiognomonia errabunda is a fungal plant pathogen and causal agent of oak anthracnose. It is one of the most widespread leaf-associated fungi in the northern temperate zone and is found mostly on oak, beech, and linden trees.

Rhizopogon occidentalis is an ectomycorrhizal fungus in the family Rhizopogonaceae of the Basidiomycota. It occurs most commonly in western North America in association with two-needle and three-needle pine hosts. They are false truffles with fruiting bodies that are yellow on the surface and pale yellow inside. Their edibility is disputed.

The Dothioraceae are a family of fungi in the order Dothideales. Species in this family have a widespread distribution, and are biotrophic or necrotrophic, usually associated with woody plants.

Cladonia mitis is a species of fruticose lichen in the family Cladoniaceae. It was formally described as a new species in 1918 by German lichenologist Heinrich Sandstede. It has previously been classified in genus Cladina before molecular phylogenetic studies showed this to be a part of Cladonia. Cladonia mitis is morphologically quite similar to Cladonia arbuscula, and some authors have considered it to be a variety or subspecies of the latter. They differ mainly in the production of secondary compounds: Cladonia mitis produces chemicals in the rangiformic acid complex, which C. arbuscula

Ramalina siliquosa, also known as sea ivory, is a tufted and branched lichen which is widely found on siliceous rocks and stone walls on coastlands round the British Isles, occasionally slightly inland. It grows well above the high-tide mark but is still very tolerant of salt spray. The branches are flattened and grey, and bear disc-like spore-producing bodies. It forms part of the diet of sheep in Shetland and on the coast of North Wales. It is found in Iceland where it has a conservation status of a vulnerable species.

Lambertella is a genus of fungi in the family Rutstroemiaceae. The genus name of Lambertella is in honour of Lambert Gelbenegger (1867-1929), an Austrian clergyman and botanist. The genus was circumscribed by Franz Xaver Rudolf von Höhnel in Sitzungsber. Kaiserl. Akad. Wiss., Math.-Nat. Kl. Abt. Vol.1, on pages 127-375 in 1918.

Echidnodes is a genus of fungi in the Asterinaceae family. The relationship of this taxon to other taxa within the class is unknown (incertae sedis), and it has not yet been placed with certainty into any order.

Dothidotthia is a genus of fungi in the family Botryosphaeriaceae. There are 11 species.

Coniella is a fungus genus in the family Schizoparmeaceae (or Schizoparmaceae), which contains 65 species recorded in the database Mycobank. This genus Coniella are reported as a typical plant pathogenic fungi for grape, eucalyptus and several plant. It mainly found in Europe, Asian, also South Africa. less report in American, only one paper published new spaces founded. The first fungus belonging to Coniella genus was Coniella pulchella, established by Von Hoehnel in 1918. (Von H.hnel 1918) Alvarez, regarded genera Pilidiella and Schizoparme together with Coniella as synonyms. (Alvarez,

Prillieuxina is a genus of fungi in the Asterinaceae family. The relationship of this taxon to other taxa within the class is unknown (incertae sedis), and it has not yet been placed with certainty into any order. The genus name of Prillieuxina is in honour of Édouard Ernest Prillieux (1829–1915), who was a French botanist and agronomist known for his work with plant diseases. The genus was circumscribed by Gabriel Arnaud in Ann. École Natl. Agric. Montpellier ser.2, vol.16 on pages 161–162 in 1918.

Kriegeriella is a genus of fungi in the family Pleosporaceae. The genus name of Kriegeriella is in honour of Karl Wilhelm Krieger (1848-1921), who was a German teacher and botanist (Mycology and Bryology). The genus was circumscribed by Franz Xaver Rudolf von Höhnel in Ann. Mycol. vol.16 on page 39 in 1918.

Cortinarius rotundisporus, also known as the elegant blue webcap, is a basidiomycete mushroom of the genus Cortinarius found in southern Australia, where it is found in eucalypt forests and rainforests. The cap of the fruit body is a steely blue colour, with a yellowish boss, and paler similarly coloured stipe.

Candelariella medians is a species of crustose lichen in the family Candelariaceae. It was first described in 1862 by the Finnish lichenologist William Nylander from specimens found growing on stones in Paris's Jardin du Luxembourg. The species forms distinctive yellow, radiating crusts up to 3 cm across on lime-rich surfaces affected by human activity, particularly in churchyards and on old buildings. It is abundant in southern and eastern England but occurs throughout Europe, typically growing on calcareous masonry such as limestone memorials, church walls, and gravestones.
