TL;DR: In this article, a comprehensive study of the Geoglossaceae from subantarctic regions is presented, with a notice of some interesting and new species found in the Nothofagus forests of South America.
Abstract: This paper is not intended to be a comprehensive study of the Geoglossaceae from subantarctic regions but rather a notice of some interesting and new species found in the Nothofagus forests of South America. It began when I tried to determine collections made by Dr. Singer, Dr. Horak and myself in the above mentioned area, and found it necessary to compare them with Australasian collections. From this study, the presence of common species became obvious, corroborating the closeness of the relationship between the fungal floras of Austral South America, S. Australia and New Zealand. Most of the Geoglossaceae treated here belong to the tribe Geoglosseae (Durand, i9o8), some of which are known, up to the present, only from their type material. Additional collections have contributed to a better understanding of the species, and, consequently to their placement in better defined or newly recognized genera. Amongst modern authors, Dr. R. W. G. Dennis (1958 & 1961) is a pioneer in the study of the inoperculate discomycetes of the subantarctic regions. With his help I have had access to valuable collections deposited in the Kew Herbarium, which made possible this contribution. For this, and for his authoritative suggestions and criticism throughout many years of uninterrupted correspondence, I am deeply indebted.

TL;DR: In the last twenty years, several specimens of Geoglossaceae have been collected in Iceland, by Harour ICristinsson, Mikael Jeppson, Steen Elborne and the author, adding at least four new species to the flora.
Abstract: ABSTBACT: Asurvey is given of six species of the ascomycete family Geoglossaceae known to occur in Iceland, Three of the species. Sarcoieotia giobosa. iJeogiossum arenarium and GeogiOssuR starbaeckii are new to Iceland, Members of Geoglossaceae were first recorded from Iceland by ROSTRUP 1903 (Islands Svampe, p. 317). He recorded two species: Geog'lossum g'labrum Pers. (Skriodalur, East Iceland, leg. Th. Thoroddsen), and Mitrula gracilis ICarst. (Grundarfjarour, Snre fellsnes, on moss, leg. Helgi J6nssonl. LARSEN (1932) quotes these records in his comprehensive work, Fungi of Iceland, only adding a habitat to the former ("among grasses and mosses"). The specimens on which these records are based could not be found to day, neither in Icelandic herbaria, nor in Botanisk Museum Copen hagen. In the last twenty years, several specimens of Geoglossaceae have been collected in Iceland, by Harour ICristinsson, Mikael Jeppson, Steen Elborne and the author, adding at least four new species to the flora. Joh.an Nitare has verified some of the identifications, and he also recorded Geoglossum alpinum from Iceland (NITARE 1984). The specimens referred to in this article are kept in the Museum of Natural History, Akureyri, Iceland (AMNH), and in pri vate collections of M. Jeppson and St. Elborne. NITRULA GRACILIS ICarst. N.i trula graci.li s Has first recorded from Iceland by ROSTRUP (1903), in Grundarfjarour, West Iceland. Since 1960 it has been collected in several localities at Eyjafjarour (North Iceland) and in the Central Highland (fig. 1). It groHs at an alti tude from 200 (Arsk6gsstrand, Eyjafjarour) to 800 m (Mt. Hlioarfjall, Eyjafjarour, and Sauoafellshals (grid square 6450)), indicating alpine and northern distribution in Iceland. The species Has collected in the period from July 27th to Sept. 24th. It groHs in small and rather dense clusters at the margin of springs and small brool{s on wet mosses, often on Palu
