Questions of classification of basidial fungi.

Abstract

Surveying mycological works dealing with great number of species about basidial fungi published in the last hundred years (Kalchbrenner [1], Istvánffi [2], Hollós [3], Moesz [4, 5], Bohus et al. [6], Bánhegyi et al. [7], Ubrizsy [8], Bánhegyi et al. [9], Babos [10, 11], Rimóczi-Vetter [12], Rimóczi [13]) the great variety and changes of applied systems is conspicuous. In all works the doubt is expressed whether the currently applied systematic lists and nomenclatural solutions are the best, and whether they have chosen the most appropriate systematic theories. Hungarian authors have never created an own system though it is conspicuous that their knowledge about foreign mycologist taxonomist's works of the given period is thorough. Critical usage of their elements and critical review in the own works is rare (Ubrizsy-Vörös [14], Ubrizsy [15]).
