Revealing Coprophilous Basidiomycetes in Sri Lanka: An Integrative Taxonomic Assessment of Dung‐Inhabiting MushroomsNARA Subscribed
Coprophilous fungi inhabit animal dung and play a crucial role in ecological balance by decomposing animal waste and serving as a food source for coprophagous and mycophagous arthropods. This study aimed to systematically characterize the diversity of coprophilous basidiomycetes across selected regions of Sri Lanka, and it characterized seven coprophilous basidiomycete specimens representing five distinct species from selected...
First Report of Agrocybe retigera and Scleroderma albidum from Sri Lanka based on Morphological and Molecular IdentificationNARA Subscribed
The diversity of macrofungi in Sri Lanka remains largely unexplored, with many species yet to be documented. This study provides the first report of Agrocybe retigera and Scleroderma albidum from the Badulla District, Sri Lanka, based on morphological and molecular data. Macrofungal specimens were collected from different localities within the mid‐country intermediate zone and the up‐country intermediate zone in the Badulla Di...
Water quality and floating microplastics pollution along Southern to Northwestern Coast, Sri LankaOA Marine
Microplastics (MPs) are prevalent and dispersed in coastal ecosystems, heightening the risk of MPs consumption by marine wildlife, thereby leading to contamination of food webs. The present study investigated the abundance of MPs and respective water quality in coastal waters from Matara to Chilaw. MPs and water quality (pH, dissolved oxygen, electrical conductivity, turbidity, alkalinity, total dissolved solids, total suspend...
