Summary: | Three new records of Myxomycetes from Taiwan are described and illustrated by light and scanning electron microscopy. Ceratiomyxa fruticulosa var. descendens is characterized by the unbranched, cylindrical forms of sporophores, the pillars. Licea retiformis is the only species in Licea with reticulate plasmodiocarpous fructifications. Trichia munda is distinct by the areolate peridium, of which the yellowish inner layer appearing as narrow bands that divide the outer layer into large reticulations. Fruiting bodies of these three taxa were either collected from fields or harvested from moist-chamber cultures. |
