Eight species of Cortinarius (webcaps) subgenus Telamonia and two other telamonioid Cortinarius species are reported from New Brunswick, Canada. Internal transcribed spacer sequences of these were used to build a phylogenetic tree confirming species identifications and relationships to relevant material, especially types and other Canadian collections. Descriptions and photographs of fresh material and microscopic features are provided. Habitat details, particularly potential mycorrhizal partners and dominant bryophytes, were recorded for each collection and compared with published records. Seven species, Cortinarius caninoides, Cortinarius cicindela, Cortinarius fulvescens, Cortinarius harvardensis, Cortinarius plumulosus, Cortinarius pseudobiformis, and Cortinarius valgus are new distribution records for New Brunswick, and C. plumulosus is apparently a first record for North America. Because these species have rarely been reported, they have yet to be given common names.

Observations of exotic Red-eared Slider (Trachemys scripta elegans) turtles are rare in New Brunswick (NB), Canada, but we found multiple individuals residing in the recreational area of Rockwood Park, Saint John. We present evidence that suggests that Red-eared Sliders are able to overwinter in at least one water body in Rockwood Park. Seven Red-eared Sliders were removed from water bodies in NB from 2014 to 2016 and one in 2022. Currently, there are no known locations with Red-eared Sliders persisting in NB.
在加拿大新不伦瑞克省(NB),观察到外来红耳滑龟(Trachemys scripta elegans)的情况非常罕见,但我们发现有多只红耳滑龟栖息在圣约翰的洛克伍德公园休闲区。我们提供的证据表明,红耳滑龟至少能够在洛克伍德公园的一个水体中越冬。从 2014 年到 2016 年,我们从新不伦瑞克省的水体中捕获了七只红耳滑蜥,2022 年捕获了一只。目前,新不伦瑞克省没有红耳滑蜥持续存在的已知地点。

Studies of the diversity of myxomycetes or plasmodial slime moulds (Amoebozoa) in New Brunswick are lagging behind those of many other groups of terrestrial organisms. Here, we summarize the myxomycetes of the province as documented by recently collected specimens held by the New Brunswick Museum (NBM). Between 2007 and 2019, 264 specimens were collected, representing 80 species in 29 genera. Most of these records result from targetted searching during NBM-led biodiversity surveys (the BiotaNB project) in provincial protected natural areas between 2014 and 2019 and a mycological foray on Campobello Island in 2016. Previously, only seven species had been reported for the province. Consistent with their worldwide distributions and abundance, Arcyria cinerea, Fuligo septica, Ceratiomyxa fruticulosa, and Lycogala epidendrum were the most collected species, whereas the globally rare species Paradiacheopsis microcarpa has been collected in New Brunswick six times. Forty-two species were found only once, and five of these (Comatricha mirabilis, Fuligo laevis, Hemitrichia chrysospora, Lepidoderma neoperforatum, Listerella paradoxa) are rare worldwide.
