Despite being among the earliest fungi recognized from amber, these microfossils have received virtually no attention for the past 100 years. Our recent findings of similar fungal inclusions from Baltic and Bitterfeld amber have revealed that these fungi constituted an abundant, but poorly understood component of these Paleogene amber forests. Here we elucidate the morphology and growth mode of these enigmatic fungi and show that they are clearly distinguished from the moniliform hyphae of capnodialean sooty moulds (Ascomycota, Capnodiales), that they also do not correspond with the extant genus Torula, and cannot with confidence be assigned to any extant genus of dematiaceous hyphomycetes. The life cycle of the fungi involved transitions from vegetative hyphae to conidial states producing non-randomly disarticulating chains of multi-cellular phragmoconidia. We provide an emended description of these fungi and suggest a new fossil genus Casparyotorula that comprises three anamorphic species, Casparyotorula globulifera (Caspary) comb. nov., Casparyotoruia heteromorpha (Caspary) comb. nov., and Caspcnyotorula arnoldii sp. nov.

The graminid inclusions described here challenge previous notions of the Baltic amber source area being a dark, close canopy forest and rather indicate at least some open and light habitats with swampy and wet areas within the 'Baltic amber forest', and thus enlighten its hitherto obscure palaeoenvironment and floristic composition.

The amber inclusion represents the second fossil record of Sordariomycetes, as well as the first fossil of its particular order (either Savoryellales or Chaetosphaeriales). The fossil fungus is distinguished from extant representatives by possessing both short conidiophores and small two-septate pyriform conidia, and is described as Monotosporella doerfeltii sp. nov. Inside the amber, the anamorph is attached to its substrate, which is likely the degraded thallus of a cladoniform lichen. The extant New Caledonian species is assigned to Monotosporella setosa.

Bieb., Viscaceae) are hemiparasites with complex roles in nature. They are one of the most severe pests in northern hemisphere conifer forests, but they also enhance the structural complexity and species diversity of the forests. Here, we describe the first pre-Miocene macrofossils of dwarf mistletoes. The fossils from Eocene Baltic amber provide new insights into the morphological evolution of the Arceuthobium lineage and its paleobiogeography. METHODS: The amber inclusions were investigated with light microscopy and compared with extant Viscaceae and to historic descriptions of lost Baltic amber fossils with affinities to Viscaceae. KEY RESULTS: Six fossil species of the A rceuthobium lineage, A. johnianum comb. nov.,A. mengeanum comb. nov., A. conwentzii sp. nov., A. groehnii sp. nov., A. viscoides comb. nov. and A. obovatum sp. nov., occurred in source forests of Baltic amber, representing the oldest macrofossil evidence of dwarf mistletoes. They share morphological features of their bracts, internodes, fruits, and stomata with extant Arceuthobium. Differences from extant dwarf mistletoes, such as the perianth merosity, the nonfusion of squamate bracts and presence of oblanceolate expanded leaves, indicate their affiliation to an ancient lineage of the genus. CONCLUSIONS: The occurrence of six species of dwarf mistletoes in a single amber deposit suggests A rceuthobium was a keystone taxon of the Baltic amber source area. As in extant conifer forests, they probably influenced the structural complexity of the forest, not only leading to more open woodlands but also increasing species diversity, at least at a microhabitat scale."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.3732/ajb.1600390"],["dc.identifier.isi","000402016000009"],["dc.identifier.pmid","28533204"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/42621"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.status","final"],["dc.notes.submitter","PUB_WoS_Import"],["dc.relation.issn","1537-2197"],["dc.relation.issn","0002-9122"],["dc.title","Diverse early dwarf mistletoes (Arceuthobium), ecological keystones of the Eocene Baltic amber biota"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]
