9. R. G. Fragosu is another mycologist who, based on material collected by F.M. de la Escalera from Khuzestan and upstream of Karun river, published two papers. 10. Iran is mentioned in the title of a publication authored by R. Picbauer (1932), but no locality of Iran is mentioned in the paper. The materials this scientist studied, were collected by F. Nabelek who traveled to Iran and Turkey for plant collection. 11. One of the greatest foreign mycologists who contributed most to Iranian mycology was the famous Austrian mycologist F. Petrak. This mycologist published his first paper in 1939. The materials he studied were collected by K.H. Rechinger. F. Petrak started his study on Iranian fungi in this period, however, published his major papers on Iranian fungi in the third period. He even published a paper in the fourth period. 3. Third period: from 1941 to 1963 This period is different from others in that Iranian mycologists started studying fungi of Iran. Researchers who contributed most to Iranian mycology are listed here in chronological order. 1. E. Esfandiari is the first Iranian mycologist who published the result of his studies in collaboration with F. Petrak (Petrak & Esfandiari 1941). Esfandiari had a close collaboration with Petrak during the course of his studies and even published another paper with Petrak in 1950 in Sydowia. Esfandiari has also worked with A. Pilát, Czechoslovakian mycologist, on the identification of cap fungi of Iran. Esfandiari has published another 10 papers on fungi or plant pathogenic fungi of Iran. 2. F. Petrak has contributed most to the Iranian mycology in this period. He studied on the fungi that were collected by E. Esfandiari and/or G. Scharif and were sent to Vienna. Petrak published another 18 papers in this period. 3. J.A. von Arx in a paper published in 1949 on the genus Mycosphaerella mentions the names of a few Iranian specimens that were already reported by earlier mycologists. 4. E. Khabiri is another Iranian mycologist who published his studies in a French journal in 1952, 1956 and 1958. Besides, he published a book on mycology for Iranian students. 5. R.L. Steyaert, Belgian mycologist, was in Iran in 1952 and 1953 who worked on plant diseases with Iranian scientists. During his stay in Iran he published a book in French on
Diseases of Forest Trees that was translated into Persian by A. Manuchehri and G. Scharif. 6. D.M. Henderson in five papers published on Asian rust fungi in 1957, 1959, 1961, 1966 and 1969 reported a few rust fungi of Iran too (Henderson 1969). 7. Another Iranian mycologist who in this period considerably contributed to Iranian mycology was G. Scharif. He published his first paper on grape anthracnose in 1959. The title of his thesis was: Etude morphologique et biologique de quelques champignons folicole de agrumes en Iran. He also published a number of other papers mostly on fungal plant diseases in Iran. As mentioned earlier, Scharif had collected and preliminarily studied the fungi that were later studied and published by F. Petrak. 8. R. Pakravan is another Iranian mycologist who did his PhD thesis on biology and classification of fungi attacking rose shrubs in Iran in 1958. 9. G. Viennot-Bourgin, the French mycologist, was invited by the University of Tehran and some collection on the fungi of Iran that he published in 1958. 10. I. Jørstad, Norwegian mycologist, in a few papers reported the result of his study on the fungi of Iran in 1960. The materials were collected from Iran by his compatriot botanist, P. Wendelbo. 11. R. Heim, French mycologist, travelled to Iran in 1960 and published a paper on a mushroom species of Iran (Heim 1960). 12. Among foreign mycologists we should also name of C. Golato, Italian mycologist, who himself did not work on Iranian fungi but published a paper in 1960 in which he names a few fungal species that were already published by earlier mycologists. 13. A. Manuchehri and E. Mohammadi-Doustdar considerably contributed to Iranian mycology mostly in the field of mycology teaching.
