The present paper describes the cultural details of Stemonitis axifera, a myxomyceteous member that successfully completed its life-cycle from spore to spore in 1.5 Water Agar Medium. The study gives an account of all the life events of the species from germination to sporulation and also describes the effect of major environmental factors i.e. temperature and humidity on growth of said species in agar medium Introduction: Myxomycetes are the unique eukaryotic organisms comprising about 1000 species mainly found associated with decaying plant materials in almost all types of terrestrial ecosystems. It is one of the groups which are mostly neglected in modern research in terms of cultural studies. These forms have characters of both protozoon and fungus. Current classification of myxomycetes places them in Super class Amoebozoa and in the first rank Eumycetozoa (Adl et al 2005).
Stemonitis axifera, observed on a piece of dead wood from Pondicherry, a union territory of India is described here based on morphological and microscopical characteristics. This observation is relevant due to the infrequency of records of Stemonitales in southern India, especially in a territory like Pondicherry, a union territory of India with no appreciable forest cover and low biodiversity.

The present research work is the contribution to the existing knowledge of habitat diversity within myxomycetes. Myxomycetes or True Slime Molds are the cosmopolitan group of organisms, collected as fruiting bodies or plasmodium from different usual substrates like woody debris from forest floor, forest floor litter, bark surface of living trees, aerial litter, soil and dung of herbivorous animals. The present paper describes the rare and unusual occurrence of Stemonitis inconspicua on stone from Sagaon forest, Alibag Maharashtra, India. From the available taxonomic data on Indian myxomycetes, S. inconspicua was only reported from Thatchi, Mandi and Himachal Pradesh on decaying coniferous wood, thus the present study not only adds a new microhabitat for the said species but also a new locality to the existing taxonomic knowledge. The research work also describes the taxonomical variations observed in the collected specimen which were larger fructification, uncommon elongated elliptical spore shape and smaller spore siz
We reported the occurrence of the myxomycete Stemonitis splendens on red mangrove, Rhizophora mangle. Although S. splendens was reported previously from Puerto Rico, its presence on R. mangle suggests that mangroves, although usually neglected as a potential substrate for myxomycetes, may support a larger assemblage of species than indicated by the few published records.

Spore-to-spore agar culture of the myxomycete Physarum globuliferum2010 •
The ontogeny of the myxomycete Physarum globuliferum was observed on corn meal agar and hanging drop cultures without adding sterile oat flakes, bacteria or other microorganisms. Its complete life cycle including spore germination, myxamoebae, swarm cells, plasmodial development, and maturity of fructifications was demonstrated. Details of spore-to-spore development are described and illustrated.

As myxomycetes were found to be the source of about 100 novel secondary metabolites, it becomes the need of the present to culture and explore them so that they can serve the society. They have also shown the potential for the development of drugs for clinical trials. From about 1000 described species, only 10 % species are cultured so far and of those more than 60% are from the order Physarales. This paper includes the description of spore to spore life cycle of Diachea subsessilis and apparently the only second know species in the genus cultured so far. The species was directly collected from the field and identified on the basis of its morphology and cultivated on 1.5 water agar.

A new succulenticolous myxomycete of the genus Licea is described based on material from Spain (the Canary Islands), Mexico and the USA. It is very similar to L. biforis but differs in its smaller sporophores, and its bigger orange-yellow spores.The spores have a thick wall that is thinner and lighter towards one side. These differentiating characters were stable in spore to spore culture on agar.
