Abstract
This article is the 14th in the Fungal Diversity Notes series, wherein we report 98 taxa distributed in two phyla, seven classes, 26 orders and 50 families which are described and illustrated. Taxa in this study were collected from Australia, Brazil, Burkina Faso, Chile, China, Cyprus, Egypt, France, French Guiana, India, Indonesia, Italy, Laos, Mexico, Russia, Sri Lanka, Thailand, and Vietnam. There are 59 new taxa, 39 new hosts and new geographical distributions with one new combination. The 59 new species comprise Angustimassarina kunmingense, Asterina lopi, Asterina brigadeirensis, Bartalinia bidenticola, Bartalinia caryotae, Buellia pruinocalcarea, Coltricia insularis, Colletotrichum flexuosum, Colletotrichum thasutense, Coniochaeta caraganae, Coniothyrium yuccicola, Dematipyriforma aquatic, Dematipyriforma globispora, Dematipyriforma nilotica, Distoseptispora bambusicola, Fulvifomes jawadhuvensis, Fulvifomes malaiyanurensis, Fulvifomes thiruvannamalaiensis, Fusarium purpurea, Gerronema atrovirens, Gerronema flavum, Gerronema keralense, Gerronema kuruvense, Grammothele taiwanensis, Hongkongmyces changchunensis, Hypoxylon inaequale, Kirschsteiniothelia acutisporum, Kirschsteiniothelia crustaceum, Kirschsteiniothelia extensum, Kirschsteiniothelia septemseptatum, Kirschsteiniothelia spatiosum, Lecanora immersocalcarea, Lepiota subthailandica, Lindgomyces guizhouensis, Marthe asmius pallidoaurantiacus, Marasmius tangerinus, Neovaginatispora mangiferae, Pararamichloridium aquisubtropicum, Pestalotiopsis piraubensis, Phacidium chinaum, Phaeoisaria goiasensis, Phaeoseptum thailandicum, Pleurothecium aquisubtropicum, Pseudocercospora vernoniae, Pyrenophora verruculosa, Rhachomyces cruralis, Rhachomyces hyperommae, Rhachomyces magrinii, Rhachomyces platyprosophi, Rhizomarasmius cunninghamietorum, Skeletocutis cangshanensis, Skeletocutis subchrysella, Sporisorium anadelphiae-leptocomae, Tetraploa dashaoensis, Tomentella exiguelata, Tomentella fuscoaraneosa, Tricholomopsis lechatii, Vaginatispora flavispora and Wetmoreana blastidiocalcarea. The new combination is Torula sundara. The 39 new records on hosts and geographical distribution comprise Apiospora guiyangensis, Aplosporella artocarpi, Ascochyta medicaginicola, Astrocystis bambusicola, Athelia rolfsii, Bambusicola bambusae, Bipolaris luttrellii, Botryosphaeria dothidea, Chlorophyllum squamulosum, Colletotrichum aeschynomenes, Colletotrichum pandanicola, Coprinopsis cinerea, Corylicola italica, Curvularia alcornii, Curvularia senegalensis, Diaporthe foeniculina, Diaporthe longicolla, Diaporthe phaseolorum, Diatrypella quercina, Fusarium brachygibbosum, Helicoma aquaticum, Lepiota metulispora, Lepiota pongduadensis, Lepiota subvenenata, Melanconiella meridionalis, Monotosporella erecta, Nodulosphaeria digitalis, Palmiascoma gregariascomum, Periconia byssoides, Periconia cortaderiae, Pleopunctum ellipsoideum, Psilocybe keralensis, Scedosporium apiospermum, Scedosporium dehoogii, Scedosporium marina, Spegazzinia deightonii, Torula fici, Wiesneriomyces laurinus and Xylaria venosula. All these taxa are supported by morphological and multigene phylogenetic analyses. This article allows the researchers to publish fungal collections which are important for future studies. An updated, accurate and timely report of fungus-host and fungus-geography is important. We also provide an updated list of fungal taxa published in the previous fungal diversity notes. In this list, erroneous taxa and synonyms are marked and corrected accordingly.

Introduction
Fungi play a key role in many biological processes, influencing ecosystems (Schimann et al. 2017). They are saprobes, epiphytes, endophytes, animal and plant pathogens or symbionts (Chethana et al. 2021a, b). High species diversity in fungi exhibits a huge variation in morphology, lifestyles and the mode of dispersal (Hyde et al. 2018). Fungi are also important in biotechnological applications (Hyde et al. 2019).
The current estimate of fungal diversity is highly uncertain, ranging from 1.5 to 12 million species (Wu et al. 2019; Hyde et al. 2021; Bhunjun et al. 2022). Of this massive number, only around 150,000 species have been named and classified to date. With the introduction of DNA-based techniques in species delimitation, the newly described taxa per year have dramatically increased. Whether these newly introduced taxa are novel is another challenge the mycologists face. With only 10% of fungi being named and classified, many species remain to be discovered (Hyde et al. 2021). Some species are poorly described and lack molecular data. This can be overcome if we collect, isolate, sequence and provide new data on fungi from different hosts and habitats. Identification of new taxa, recollection of already known taxa, the establishment of reference specimens and epi-typification or neo-typification of taxa with fresh material and cultures are necessary as they contribute to providing a stable taxonomy for fungi Chethana et al. (2021a) as well as for carrying out assays to identify any potential compounds that can be harnessed at the industrial level. Identification and documentation of the host and the geographical range of a fungus can be particularly important in disease management (Dugan et al. 2009).
In order to provide an outlet for the mycologists to publish their findings in mycology, different publication series such as AJOM new records and collections of fungi (Hyde et al. 2019; Chethana et al. 2021b), Fungal Diversity notes (Liu et al. 2015; Ariyawansa et al. 2015; Hyde et al. 2017, 2019, 2020; Tibpromma et al. 2018; Wanasinghe et al. 2018; Phookamsak et al. 2019; Boonmee et al. 2021), Fungal planet (Crous et al. 2015a, b, c, 2017, 2018) and Mycosphere notes (Thambugala et al. 2015; Hyde et al. 2018, 2021; Jayawardena et al. 2018; Manawasinghe et al. 2022), are now available. As a result, numerous new taxa, geographical and host records, new combinations, and reference data were introduced along with morphological and multigene analyses.
This is the 14th in the series of Fungal Diversity Notes with entries mainly collected from Australia, Brazil, Burkina Faso, Chile, China, Cyprus, Egypt, France, French Guiana, India, Indonesia, Italy, Laos, Mexico, Russia, Sri Lanka, Thailand, and Vietnam. We aim to provide new data including morphological, geographical and sequence data for a stable taxonomy and phylogeny, which become significantly important for the accurate identification of fungi as suggested by Cao et al. (2021), Chethana et al. (2021a), Manawasinghe et al. (2019), Maharachchikumbura et al. (2021), Jayawardena et al. (2021b) and Pem et al. (2021). We provide a detailed description and an updated tree for the genus or family of each entry. The ‘notes’ under each entry discuss how the new taxa are established, including the host and geographical ranges. The data compiled in this study can be used by future researchers for a better understanding of the taxonomy of each different group of fungi.

Materials and methods follow the previous fungal diversity notes (Hyde et al. 2016, 2020a, b, c; Tibpromma et al. 2017; Wanasinghe et al. 2018; Phookamsak et al. 2019; Boonmee et al. 2021 and Senanayake et al. 2020). When specific details are available for material and methods they are given in the ‘notes’ section of each taxon. Taxa described in this study were collected from Australia, Brazil, Burkina Faso, Chile, China, Cyprus, Egypt, France, French Guiana, India, Indonesia, Italy, Laos, Mexico, Russia, Sri Lanka, Thailand, and Vietnam. Taxa were described and illustrated based on morphological features, coupled with phylogenetic analyses performed by maximum likelihood (ML), maximum parsimony (MP) and Bayesian posterior probability (BYPP) criteria. Colour codes followed the Methuen Handbook of Colour (Kornerup and Wanscher 1978). Phylogenetic analyses were performed based on details outlined by Dissanayake et al. (2020). Details of each analysis are given in Supplementary Table 1. The pairwise homoplasy index (PHI) test was carried out when necessary, using Split Trees as described by Quaedvlieg et al. (2014) to determine the recombination level within phylogenetically closely related species. The new taxa are justified based on the guidelines of Cao et al. (2021), Chethana et al. (2021a, b), Manawasinghe et al. (2021), Maharachchikumbura et al. (2021), Jayawardena et al. (2021b) and Pem et al. (2021).

Subclass Dothideomycetidae P.M. Kirk, P.F. Cannon, J.C. David & Stalpers ex C.L. Schoch, Spatafora, Crous & Shoemaker
Mycosphaerellales (Nannf.) P.F. Cannon
Notes: Abollahzadeh et al. (2020) based on LSU, tef1 and rpb2 sequence data revalidated Mycosphaerellales as a separate order. Mycosphaerellales include species that are saprobes, ectophytes, plant pathogens and lichenised fungi. This order includes eight families viz. Cystocoleaceae, Dissoconiaceae, Extremaceae, Mycosphaerellaceae, Neodevriesiaceae, Phaeothecoidiellaceae, Schizothyriaceae and Teratosphaeriaceae (see Abdollahzadeh et al. 2020).
Mycosphaerellaceae Lindau, Nat. Pflanzenfamilien: 421(1897)
Notes: Mycosphaerellaceae was established by Lindau (1896) with Mycosphaerella as the type genus. This is one of the largest families including asexual morphs, asexual holomorphs or species with mycosphaerella-like sexual morphs. The majority of them are parasitic or saprobic on plants, fungi and lichens (Hyde et al. 2013). Wijayawardene et al. (2022) accepted a total of 119 genera having molecular data under Mycosphaerellaceae.
Pseudocercospora Speg., Anales del Museo Nacional de Historia Natural Buenos Aires 20 (13): 438 (1910)
Notes: Pseudocercospora was established by Spegazzini (1910) with P. vitis as the type genus. The genus is characterized by conidiophores solitary, fasciculate, synnematal or arranged in sporodochia, conidia coloured, scars unthickened or slightly thickened (Crous and Braun 2003; Crous et al. 2014). They are mostly plant pathogenic fungi associated with leaf and fruit spots and are widely distributed in a wide range of climatic conditions including cool temperate, sub-tropical and tropical regions (Crous et al. 2014).
Pseudocercospora vernoniae Archana Singh & N.K. Dubey, sp. nov
Mycobank Number: MB 834618, Facesoffungi number: FoF 07979, Figs. 1, 2
Etymology: Based to the host genus from which the taxon was isolated
Holotype: AMH:10043
Asexual morph: on leaf spots of Vernonia cineria, hypophyllous later amphiphyllous, 2–5 mm, angular, vein limited, discrete and later forming irregular larger patches, grayish brown on lower surface and dark blackish- brown on upper surface. Caespituli hypophyllous later amphiphyllous, dark brown, erumpent. Stromata substomatal, few cells to well-developed, made up of oval to round 3–5 µm wide pseudoparenchymatous cells, median to dark brown. Conidiophores fasciculate, unbranched or rarely branched, geniculate, 1–8-septate, light brown 13.6–40.3 (50) × 3.5–5.5 µm. Conidiogenous cells integrated, polyblastic, cicaterised. Conidia septate (1–7), catenate in branched chains, straight to curved, cylindrical, constricted at septa, olivaceous brown, subcylindrical, base obclavate to obconico truncate, tip subacute to obtuse 21.7–44.8 (92) × 4.5–5.5 µm. Sexual morph: Not observed.
Culture characteristics: Conidia germinating on Potato Dextrose Agar (PDA). Colonies very slow growing, velvety, greyish brown; reaching 2–5 mm diam., in 28 days at 27 °C, margin circular to irregular, reverse blackish brown raising centrally, of dense cottony mycelium and hard texture. Mycelium smooth, branched, asexual and sexual spores not formed within 60 days.
Material examined: India, Sonebhadra U.P., on living leaves of Vernonia cineria (L.) Less (Asteraceae), Dec 2017, AMH: 10043 (Holotype), culture ex type NFCCI: 4441.
GenBank numbers: MN691042 (LSU); MN691041 (ITS); MT106617 (act); MT106618 (tef1)
Notes: Pseudocercospora species are mostly host-specific (with few exceptions) related to a single host species, host genus or closely related host genera (Braun et al. 2013; Crous et al. 2013). Two species of Pseudocercospora has been reported earlier on Vernonia, Pseudocercospora cinereae (Deighton 1976) and Pseudocercospora vernoniacearum (Shukla et al. 1982). Pseudocercospora cineriae has dark brown circular, coalescing leaf spots and P. vernoniacearum has oval, effuse leaf spots whereas P. vernoniae has grayish brown, angular and vein limited leaf spots. Conidiophores are much smaller (14–40 µm) and more septate (1–8) in P. vernoniae compared to previously described species P. cinereae (1–3 septate, 40–150 × 3.5–5 µm) and P. vernoniacearum (44–133 × 3.5–5.4 µm). Conidia are simple and longer in P. cinereae (28.5–145 × 2.8–5.7 µm) and P. vernoniacearum (40–100 × 3.5–5.4 µm). The presence of catenate conidia in branched chains with smaller and variable in size 21.74– 44.76 × 4.5–5.5 µm) differentiate P. vernoniae from the previously described species. Molecular analysis based on combined gene analysis of LSU, ITS, act and tef1 (Fig. 3) reveals that P. vernoniae clusters with P. hakeae (CBS 144520) with moderate support.

Notes: Kirschsteiniothelia acutisporum shares similar characteristics with K. fluminicola in having macronematous, unbranched, cylindrical, septate, conidiophores and solitary, obclavate, septate, conidia. However, Kirschsteiniothelia acutisporum differs from K. fluminicola in having a gelatinous rounded sheath at the apex of shorter and thinner conidia (33–43 × 7.5–8.5 μm vs 47.5–86.5 × 8–10 μm). Kirschsteiniothelia acutisporum phylogenetically creates an independent branch with 100ML/100MP/1.00BYPP support (Fig. 5).

Notes: Kirschsteiniothelia crustaceum shares similar morphology with K. rostrata in having macronematous, unbranched, cylindrical, septate, conidiophores and solitary, obclavate, septate, conidia. However, conidiophores of Kirschsteiniothelia crustaceum (60–170 × 6.5–10.5 μm) are much shorter than those of K. rostrata (up to 280 μm long, 12 μm wide). Conidia of K. crustaceum (45–75 × 10–18 μm) are much shorter than those of K. rostrata (up to 115 μm long, 15 μm wide) also. The combined LSU, SSU and ITS phylogenetic analysis show that Kirschsteiniothelia crustaceum represents a sister taxon to K. rostrata with good separation (89ML/1.00BYPP) (Fig. 5).

Notes: Kirschsteiniothelia septemseptatm shares similar characteristics with K. fluminicola in having macronematous, unbranched, cylindrical, septate, conidiophores and solitary, obclavate, septate, conidia. However, K. cangshanensis differs from K. fluminicola in having a gelatinous rounded sheath at the apex of shorter and thinner conidia (33–43 × 7.5–8.5 μm vs 47.5–86.5 × 8–10 μm). In our phylogetic analyses, K. septemseptatum forms an independent branch with 91ML/95MP/1.00BYPP support (Fig. 5)

Amorosiaceae Thambug. & K.D. Hyde
Thambugala et al. (2015) introduced this family to accommodate Amorosia Mantle & D. Hawksw. and Angustimassarina Thambug., Kaz. Tanaka & K.D. Hyde. The family is characterized by immersed or semi-immersed ascomata with a short, crest-like papilla, and hyaline ascospores with a mucilaginous sheath (Thambugala et al. 2015). Wijayawardene et al. (2022) accepted five genera in this family.
Angustimassarina Thambug., Kaz. Tanaka & K.D. Hyde
Thambugala et al. (2015) introduced this genus to accommodate fungi that have ascospores resembling Massarina, while being narrowly fusiform. There are 12 species listed in the Index Fungorum (accessed on 30 August 2022). In this study, we introduce a new species from China based on molecular phylogeny and morphology.

Notes: Species of Angustimassarina are broadly distributed in Belgium, Germany and Italy (Hyde et al. 2020a, b, c; Phukhamsakda et al. 2020), but, have never been reported from China. Our collections from China are morphologically and phylogenetically related to Angustimassarina. Our new species Angustimassarina kunmingense resembles other Angustimassarina species in terms of ascomata, asci and ascospores (Table 1) and the new species was isolated from similar habitat to other Angustimassarina species (Thambugala et al. 2015). However, the taxon is charactered by slender asci and ascospores. The megablast search of the ITS and tef1 sequences show the highest similarity with Angustimassarina populi (457/463, 98%) and Angustimassarina populi (827/830, 99%), respectively. In the phylogenetic analysis, Angustimassarina kunmingense formed a well-supported monophyletic clade basal to Angustimassarina species (97ML/1.00BYPP). Our phylogenetic tree was constructed using multi gene loci (ITS, SSU, LSU and tef1, Fig. 11). However, most taxa were not strongly supported. This could suggest that additional markers are required to achieve a more accurate identity, thus we also provide protein gene act and tub2 herein.

Bambusicolaceae D.Q. Dai & K.D. Hyde, in Hyde et al., Fungal Diversity 63: 49 (2013)
Notes: Bambusicolaceae was placed in Dothideomycetes by Hyde et al. (2013) to accommodate Bambusicola (Dai et al. 2012; Liu et al. 2015; Jayasiri et al. 2019; Yang et al. 2019; Bhunjun et al. 2021; Calabon et al. 2022). Four genera viz. Bambusicola, Corylicola, Leucaenicola and Palmiascoma are accepted in this family (Wijayawardene et al. 2022). Bambusicolaceae are characterized by solitary, scattered, immersed, semi-immersed to erumpent and conical or globose to subglobose ascomata, anastomosing, branching interascal filaments, cylindrical to clavate asci with a short furcate or rounded to obtuse pedicel and slightly broad-fusiform or clavate to ellipsoidal, hyaline or yellowish to brown, single-septate ascospores with a gelatinous sheath (Dai et al. 2012; Hyde et al. 2013; Liu et al. 2015; Dai et al. 2017).
Bambusicola D.Q. Dai & K.D. Hyde, in Dai, Bhat, Liu, Chukeatirote, Zhao & Hyde, Cryptog. Mycol. 33(3): 367 (2012)
Notes: Bambusicola is a well-studied genus, established by Dai et al. (2012). There are 15 species accepted in the genus and all species have sequence data in GenBank (Dai et al. 2012, 2015, 2017; Thambugala et al. 2015; Yang et al. 2018; Dong et al. 2020; Monkai et al. 2021). Both sexual and asexual morphs of Bambusicola are reported (Dai et al. 2012, 2015, 2017; Thambugala et al. 2015; Yang et al. 2018; Dong et al. 2020; Monkai et al. 2021). The sexual morph of Bambusicola is characterized by gregarious, immersed or semi-immersed, globose to subglobose, uni- to multi- loculate, coriaceous ascomata, bitunicate, cylindrical or cylindric-clavate, short pedicellate asci with a shallow or well-developed chamber and fusiform, septate, hyaline to pale brown ascospores mostly surrounded by a gelatinous sheath. The asexual morph of Bambusicola is characterized by pycnothyrial, immersed to semi-immersed, acerose or subglobose, pyriform or irregular, uni- to multi-loculate conidiomata, holoblastic, annellidic, discrete, cylindrical conidiogenous cells and cylindrical to ellipsoidal, pale brown to brown, septate conidia (Dai et al. 2012, 2017; Thambugala et al. 2015; Dong et al. 2020; Monkai et al. 2021).
Bambusicola species have been reported from both terrestrial and freshwater habitats in China and Thailand (Dai et al. 2012, 2015, 2017; Thambugala et al. 2015; Yang et al. 2018; Dong et al. 2020). Most Bambusicola species are reported as saprobes on bamboo. In this study, we report a new record of Bambusicola bambusae on submerged decaying wood from freshwater habitats for the first time.

Culture characteristics: Ascospores germinating on PDA within 24 h and germ tubes produced from both ends. Colonies growing on PDA, reaching a diam. of 20–25 mm after 20 d at 25 °C, surface smooth to velvety, with entire to slightly undulate edge, greenish in the centre, white at the edge; reverse dark greenish to black in the centre, white at the edge.
Material examined: Thailand, Tao Ngoi, Sakon Nakhon, on decaying wood submerged in a river, 12 November 2017, D.F. Bao, B110 (MFLU 22–0080), living culture, MFLUCC 22–0021.
Host/Substrate: Bamboo (Poaceae) (Dai et al. 2012); decaying wood submerged in a river (this study)

GenBank numbers: ON764309 (ITS); ON764310 (LSU); ON764313(SSU); ON788004 (rpb2)
Notes: In the phylogenetic analysis, our new isolate B110 clustered with the ex-type strain of Bambusicola bambusae (MFLUCC 11–0614) with 98% ML/1.00 BYPP support (Fig. 13). The morphology of our collection is almost identical to the holotype of Bambusicola bambusae except for the size of ascomata and the sheath of the ascospores. The ascomata of our collection are smaller than the holotype (190–245 vs. 450–70 µm diam) and the holotype of B. bambusae has ascospores with a thick sheath (Dai et al. 2012), whereas, the sheath of ascospores were not observed in our collection. A comparison of the ITS and rpb2 gene regions of MFLUCC 11–0614 and B110 revealed 0 and 3 base pair differences and therefore we identified our new collection as Bambusicola bambusae as recommended by Pem et al. (2021). Bambusicola bambusae was described by Dai et al. (2012), it was collected on bamboo from terrestrial habitats in Thailand. Our collection was from freshwater habitats and this is the first time this species reported from freshwater habitats.

Palmiascoma Phook. & K.D. Hyde, in Liu et al., Fungal Diversity: 10.1007/s13225-015-0324-y, [65] (2015).
Notes: Palmiascoma was introduced by Liu et al. (2015) and is typified by P. gregariascomum collected from a dead frond of a palm. Palmiascoma is similar to Didymosphaeria in having didymosporous, brown, and echinulate ascospores, but differs in phylogeny. Monkai et al. (2021) introduced the second species into the genus as P. qujingense isolated from dead twigs of Fagaceae sp. in Yunnan, China.

Notes: Our new collection of Palmiascoma gregariascomum is described on dead twigs of Rosa species from Thailand. We found the asexual morph of the taxon with a similar range of conidiogenous cells (5–7 × 1–2 μm vs 5–12 × 2–4 μm) and conidia (3.2–4.5 × 1.7–2.4 μm, 3.4–4.7 × 1.6–2.5 μm vs 4–6 × 2–3 μm) in morphologies compared to the type species (MFLU 11-0211). In multigene phylogeny, our strain clusters with MFLU 11–0211 with high statistical (81/ML, 1.00 BYPP) support. Based on similar morphology and phylogenetic analyses, here we provide a new host record of Palmiascoma gregariascomum on Rosa sp. from Thailand (Fig. 16).
Coniothyriaceae W.B. Cooke, Revta Biol., Lisb. 12: 289 (1983) [1980–1983]
Notes: Coniothyriaceae was introduced by Cooke (1983) to accommodate species of Coniothyrium. Kirk et al. (2008) synonymized Coniothyriaceae with Leptosphaeriaceae. De Gruyter et al. (2013) based on morphology and phylogenetic analyses showed that the type species C. palmarum is distinct from Leptosphaeriaceae and reinstated Coniothyriaceae in Pleosporales. Wijayawardene et al. (2022) accepted Coniothyrium, Foliophoma, Neoconiothyrium, Ochrocladosporium and Staurosphaeria in this family.
Coniothyrium Corda, Icon. fung. (Prague) 4: 38 (1840)
The genus is typified with C. palmarum Corda. In earlier studies Contiothyrium was considered as the asexual morph of Leptosphaeria, Mycosphaerella and Massarina (Sivanesan 1984). However, later studies based on molecular data transferred many species from Contiothyrium (Verkley et al. 2014; Hongsanan et al. 2020b). De Gruyter et al. (2013) reinstated Coniothyriaceae and included Coniothyrium as the family type.

GenBank numbers: OM235094 (SSU); OM235097(LSU)
Notes: Coniothyrium yuccicola is an asexual morph. Based on our phylogenetic tree this species is closely related to C. concentricum (Fig. 18). Conidia of this species are brown aseptate, bacilliform, ellipsoid and often thick-walled (Fig. 17). Three Coniothyrium species are recorded on Yucca species (Farr and Rossman 2022): Coniothryrium bartholomaei from the USA (Oregon), C. herbarum from the USA (California), and C. yuccae from Argentina. Coniothyrium bartholomaei was reported as a plant pathogen that caused leaf spots of Yucca in Oregon (USA) (Pscheidt and Ocamb 2018; Barr 1992). Coniothyrium herbarum is known from USA (California) on the leaves of several closely related plants: Dracaena indivisa, Sansevieria sp. and Yucca angustifolia (Cash 1952), however, this species is invalid. Coniothyrium yuccae was found on dead leaves of Yucca gloriosa in Argentina (Buenos-Aires) (Farr 1973). Phaeosphaeriopsis yuccae is another morphologically similar taxon described from living leaves of Yucca filamentosa from Russia, Rostov region, Botanical Garden of Southern Federal University (Tibpromma 2017).
Didymellaceae Gruyter, Aveskamp & Verkley, Mycol. Res. 113(4): 516 (2009)
Members of this family have a wide host range and have different life modes: endophytic, pathogenic and saprobic (Hongsanan et al. 2020b). Forty-four genera are accepted in this family (Wijayawardene et al. 2022)
Ascochyta Lib., Pl. crypt. Arduenna, fasc. (Liège) 1(Praef.): 8 (1830)
Notes: Ascochyta was introduced by Libert (1830) with A. pisi as the type species. Species of Ascochyta are characterized by the globose locules with perithecial protuberances immersed in the stroma (Chen et al. 2015). Species are mostly endophytes, pathogens and saprobes with a wide host range and a geographical distribution (Hongsanan et al. 2020b; Farr and Rossman 2022). We provide a new host record of Ascochyta medicaginicola from Prunus cerasifera in Russia.

GenBank number: OM235096 (ITS)
Notes: Our collection shares similar morphological characteristics with the ex-type strain of A. medicaginicola (Boerema et al. 2004; Chen et al. 2013). The multigene phylogenetic analysis shows that our specimen groups in the Ascochyta medicaginicola clade with 96/0.90 ML/BYPP support (Fig. 20). Four Ascochyta species have been recorded based on the morphological description from Rosaceae plants in Russia (Melnik 2000; Farr and Rossman 2022): Ascochyta idaei on Rubus idaeus in the Leningrad region, Kursk region, and Stavropol region; A. potentillarum on Potentilla reptans in Arkhangelsk region (Melnik 2000), Lipetsk region (Sarycheva et al. 2009), Republic of Crimea (Ovcharenko 2011) and Voronezh region (Melkumov 2015); A. pruni on Prunus padus in Leningrad region; Ascochyta sorbina on Sorbus torminalis in Stavropol region. As these species were identified based on morphology alone, correct species identification is yet to be done. Our collection provides the first host record of Ascochyta medicaginicola on Rosaceae based on both morphological and phylogenetic data.
Didymosphaeriaceae Munk, Dansk bot. Ark. 15(no. 2): 128 (1953).
Didymosphaeriaceae represents an important family in Dothideomycetes. The family is typified by Didymosphaeria, with D. epidermidis as the type species (Hongsanan et al. 2020b). While taxa of Didymosphaeriaceae are often endophytic, pathogenic or saprobic on various plant hosts (Gonçalves et al. 2019; Hongsanan et al. 2020b), they can sometimes also be pathogenic to human beings (Hongsanan et al. 2020b). Species of Didymosphaeriaceae are mainly characterised by brown, 1–3-septate or muriform ascospores and cellular or trabeculate pseudoparaphyses in their sexual morphs while their asexual morphs are fusicladium-like or phoma-like (Hyde et al. 2013; Hongsanan et al. 2020b). After several taxonomic revisions, 32 genera have been accepted in the family (Hongsanan et al. 2020b).
Spegazzinia Sacc., Spegazzinia: [1] (1879)
Spegazzinia was introduced by Saccardo (1880), with S. ornata as the type species and it currently comprises hyphomycetous taxa. The genus was initially accommodated in Apiosporaceae (Sordariomycetes) based on morphology (Hyde et al. 1998). It was then transferred to Didymosphaeriaceae (Dothideomycetes) based on molecular evidence (Tanaka et al. 2015). Taxa in this genus are mainly characterised by a distinctive conidiophore ontogeny as well as two types of conidia (Samarakoon et al. 2020; Hongsanan et al. 2020b). The latest two taxa added to Spegazzinia are S. musae, reported as a saprobe on Musa sp., and S. camelliae, isolated as an endophyte from Camellia sinensis var. assamica (Samarakoon et al. 2020; Suwannarach et al. 2021).

GenBank numbers: ON885254 (SSU); ON873996(LSU); ON873998(ITS); ON885741 (tef1)
Notes: Our isolate (MFLUCC 22-0180) clusters with other strains of Spegazzinia deightonii with 95% ML, statistical support in the multi-loci phylogenetic tree (Fig. 22). Pairwise comparison of DNA sequence data shows insignificant differences among our strain (MFLUCC 22-0180) and the other strains of S. deightonii, following which our isolate is considered as S. deightonii. Furthermore, the isolate in the present study shares similar features with other strains of S. deightonii, including two types of pale to dark brown conidia which are multi-cellular, constricted at the septa and comprise either long (stellate conidia) or short (disc-like conidia) spines (Ellis 1961; Tanaka et al. 2011; Samarakoon et al. 2018). Small differences in sizes may be accounted for by host variations. Spegazzinia deightonii has been reported on a palm substrate in China, Taiwan and the United States (Matsushima 1980; Delgado 2008; Tianyu 2009). We recovered the species from Thailand and thus report it as a new record on Palm from Thailand. Recently this species was also reported to occur in Thailand, in the same Province and area, on Musa sp. (Samarakoon et al. 2020).
Lindgomycetaceae K. Hiray., Kaz. Tanaka & Shearer, in Hirayama et al., Mycologia 102(3): 733 (2010)
Notes: Lindgomycetaceae was introduced by Hirayama et al. (2010) with Lindgomyces (L. ingoldianus) as the generic type. Most Lindgomycetaceae members have been recorded from freshwater habitats and the freshwater isolates form a distinct lineage from other Dothideomycetes taxa based on ribosomal sequence data (Zhang et al. 2013; Hyde et al. 2013; Dong et al. 2021). There are seven genera in the family, including Hongkongmyces which is also associated with human diseases (Tsang et al. 2014; Linqiang et al. 2020). The genus forms a close relationship to Aquimassariosphaeria, Clohesyomyces, Lolia, and Trematosphaeria in the phylogenetic analyses of the ribosomal DNA and protein-coding genes such as tef (Abdel-Aziz and Abdel-Wahab 2010; Hyde et al. 2016). We, therefore, encourage further taxonomic studies to include protein-coding regions for a better resolution of taxa in Lindgomycetaceae (Fig. 24).
Hongkongmyces Tsang et al., Medical Mycol. 52(7): 740 (2014)
Hongkongmyces was introduced as a monotypic genus associated with human infections, and typified by H. pedis (Tsang et al. 2014). Six species H. aquaticus, H. brunneosporus, H. kokensis, H. pedis, H. snookiorum, and H. thailandicus are listed in Species Fungorum (2022a, b). The species are commonly associated with freshwater habitats as saprobes. Hyde et al. (2016) introduced the second species of Hongkongmyces based on sexual morph characters, which was collected on submerged wood in a stream in Thailand. Later, an asexual morph of H. snookiorum was isolated from submerged wood (Crous et al. 2018). Hongkongmyces snookiorum was reported as an opportunistic fungal infection in a transplant patient (Deng et al. 2020). Schoch et al. (2012) and Aime et al. (2021) recommend using the fungal barcode locus such as the ITS region as well as any additional secondary barcode locus such as protein-coding region for the introduction of new species. Most Hongkongmyces species lack barcodes in public databases, and therefore, delineating species in the genus is a challenging task. In this paper, we introduce a new species of Hongkongmyces which was collected in a freshwater pond in Jilin Province of China based on comprehensive morphology and phylogeny analyses (Figs. 23 and 24).
Hongkongmyces changchunensis Phukhams., W.X. Su, & Y. Li, sp. nov.
Index Fungorum number: IF559493; Facesoffungi number: FoF10725; Fig. 23
Etymology: The epithet reflects the locality, Changchun.
Holotype: HMJAU 60185.
Saprobic on decaying Betula twigs submerged in a freshwater stream. Sexual morph: Not observed. Asexual morph: Conidiomata 77–188 × 85–174 μm diam, pycnidia scattered, semi-immersed, globose or ellipsoidal, black, coriaceous, ostiolate. Peridium 10–28 μm thick, composed of large, irregular, and dark brown cells arranged in a textura angularis. Conidiophores reduced to conidiogenous cells. Conidiogenous cells 2.6–23.5 × 1.6–4.9 μm (x̅ = 10 × 3 μm, n = 20), enteroblastic, phialidic, determinate, cylindrical to subcylindrical, hyaline, thin-walled. Conidia 10–18 × 7–13 μm (x̅ = 13 × 10 μm, n = 43), ellipsoidal, obovoid or irregular, aseptate, guttulate, hyaline, thin-walled, lacking mucilaginous sheath, turning brown at senescence stage.
Culture Characteristics: Colonies on PDA reaching 20 mm in 7 days at 20 °C, flat with entire margin, circular, grey to black, aerial mycelium becoming grey towards the edge; reverse grey-olivaceous to black, smooth.
Material examined: China, Jilin Province, Changchun District, Jingyuetan National Scenic Areas, on the submerged twigs in a stream of Betula sp. (Betulaceae), 12 May 2021, Chayanard Phukhamsakda (SWX32), (HMJAU 60185, holotype); ex-type living culture, CCMJ5008.
GenBank numbers: OL897173 (LSU), OL891809(SSU), OL996122 (ITS), OL944603 (tef1), OL944507(rpb2).
Notes: Phylogenetic analyses of LSU, SSU, ITS and tef sequence data show that Hongkongmyces changchunensis (CCMJ5008) is related to the type species Hongkongmyces thailandicus (MFLUCC 16–0406), with good support (92% ML/0.93 BYPP; Fig. 23). Hongkongmyces changchunensis was collected from submerged substrates in a freshwater habitat in Jilin Province of China. Both species were collected from fresh water habitats, but from different country (Hyde et al. 2016). Hongkongmyces changchunensis is similar to Hongkongmyces aquaticus in having phialidic conidiogenous cells and hyaline, variable shaped conidia, but it lacks sympodial proliferations (Dong et al. 2020). Hongkongmyces changchunensis is characterized by wet, globular, mass of conidia on natural substrates after drying and smooth surfaced conidia containing multiple small bubbles. Herein, we propose a new species based on both morphology and phylogenetic analyses.
Lindgomyces K. Hiray., Kaz. Tanaka & Shearer, in Hirayama et al., Mycologia 102(3): 733 (2010)
Notes: Lindgomyces was introduced in Lindgomycetaceae by Hirayama et al. (2010) based on the type species L. ingoldianus (Shearer & K.D. Hyde) K. Hiray., Kaz. Tanaka & Shearer. The morphology of the species of Lindgomyces is similar to Massarina eburnea and Lophiostoma macrostomum, but they differ from ascomata and ascospores (Raja et al. 2013; Hirayama et al. 2010). There are 14 epithets listed in Lindgomyces in Index Fungorum (2022a, b). Keys to the species of Lindgomyces were provided by Dong et al. (2020). In this study, we describe a novel species, Lindgomyces guizhouensis based on the unique morphological features and multi–gene phylogenetic analysis of a combined LSU and ITS sequence data (Fig. 26).
Lindgomyces guizhouensis J. Mai, Y.Z. Lu & K.D. Hyde, sp. nov.
Index Fungorum number: IF559506; Facesoffungi number: FoF 10676; Fig. 25
Etymology: Referring to collecting site in Guizhou Province, China.
Holotypus: GZAAS 21–0383
Saprobic on decaying wood in terrestrial habitats. Asexual morph: Ascomata 396–548 μm high × 466–514 μm diam., superficial, black, smooth, scattered, solitary, erumpent, subglobose to broadly conical, with a centrally located ostiole. Peridium 44–79 μm thick, thick–walled, composed of pale brown cells of textura angularis. Hamathecium 1–2 μm wide, septate, branched, pseudoparaphyses above the asci. Asci 110–154 × 15–28 μm, bitunicate, fissitunicate, apically rounded with an indistinct ocular chamber, subsessile, broadly cylindrical to clavate. Ascospores 30–51 × 8–12 μm, (x̅ = 44.7 × 10.5 μm, n = 25), obliquely uniseriate to 2–3–seriate, fusiform, slightly curved with narrowly rounded ends, 1–septate, 2–4 guttules in each cell, wall gray while in the ascus, smooth or slightly verruculose. Sexual morph: Not observed.
Culture characteristics: Colonies on PDA reaching 43 mm in 20 days at 25 °C, flat, filiform, gray to near–black from center to edge, with moderate aerial mycelium, smooth, irregular; In reverse, gray to pale brown.
Material examined: China, Guizhou Province, Longli, on decaying wood submerged in a freshwater stream, 2 September 2020, Jian Ma, LLSB06 (GZAAS 21–0383, holotype); ex–type living culture, GZCC 21–0669.
GenBank numbers: OM339435 (ITS), OM339432 (LSU).
Notes: In a BLASTn search of NCBI GenBank, the closest match of LSU and ITS sequence data for Lindgomyces guizhouensis is 99.54% and 96.96% similar to L. pseudomadisonensis (KT 2742). The multi–loci phylogenetic analyses of the combined LSU and ITS sequence dataset confirmed the new strain obtained belonging to Lindgomyces, where it is sister to L. griseosporus with 99% ML and 1.00 BYPP support (Fig. 25). Morphologically, L. guizhouensis is also most similar to L. griseosporus in having superficial, black with roughened surface ascomata; a thick peridium; bitunicate, clavate, subsessile asci and fusiform, 1-septate, guttules ascospores. However, our new collection differs from L. griseosporus in having larger ascomata (396–548 × 466–514 μm vs 240–290 × 320–350 μm), fragile peridium and smaller asci (110–154 × 15–28 μm vs 140–180 × 24–30). Therefore, we introduce Lindgomyces guizhouensis as a new species.
Lophiostomataceae Sacc.
Lophiostomataceae, typified by Lophiostoma, was first erected by Nitschke (1869) as ″Lophiostomeae″, but it was established by Saccardo (1883) as ″Lophiostomaceae″ and placed in Pleosporales. Lophiostomataceae species are mostly characterized by slot-like ostiole on apex of a flattened neck that are usually saprobes that grow on herbaceous and woody plants from terrestrial and aquatic environments (Holm and Holm 1988; Mugambi and Huhndorf 2009; Thambugala et al. 2015; Hashimoto et al. 2018). The historical account of Lophiostomataceae and recent generic notes of Lophiostomataceae were provided by Hyde et al. (2013) and Hongsanan et al. (2020a, b), respectively. Wijayawardene et al. (2022) outlined and accepted 30 genera of Lophiostomataceae with Lophiostoma as speciose genera (ca. 100). Calabon et al. (2022) listed 20 species under 10 genera of Lophiostomataceae from freshwater environments. In this series, we introduced two new species of Lophiostomataceae from terrestrial and freshwater habitats.
Neovaginatispora A. Hashim., K. Hiray. & Kaz. Tanaka.
Notes: Neovaginatispora, typified by N. fuckelii, was introduced by Hashimoto et al. (2018) based on their phylogenetic analysis and morphological differences of peridium (i.e., thinner peridium that is uniformly thick and composed of two cell layers) compared to Vaginatispora (Thambugala et al. 2015). Recent phylogenetic analysis shows that Neovaginatispora strains form a separate subclade with Lentistoma and Vaginatispora (Bao et al. 2019; Phukhamsakda et al. 2020; Hyde et al. 2020a, b, c). Two Neovaginatispora species are accepted, N. fuckelii and N. clematidis. Neovaginatispora fuckelii has a cosmopolitan distribution that thrives on various hosts in terrestrial habitats (Wang and Lin 2004; Thambugala et al. 2015; Hyde et al. 2016; Hyde et al. 2020a, b, c) while Bao et al. (2019) reported this on freshwater habitats. The second species, N. clematidis, was introduced by Phukhamsakda et al. (2020) from the dead stems of Clematis viticella in Belgium. Neovaginatispora clematidis differs from N. fuckelii on their ascospore morphology (broad fusiform with a single eusepta). In this study, the third Neovaginatispora species is introduced based on the collection from dead stems of Mangifera indica in Taiwan.
Neovaginatispora mangiferae Tennakoon, M.S. Calabon, E.B.G. Jones & K.D. Hyde, sp. nov.
Index Fungorum number: IF559843; Facesoffungi number: FoF12720; Fig. 27
Etymology: Name reflects the host Mangifera indica, from which the holotype was collected.
Holotype: MFLU 18–0069
Saprobic on decaying stem of Mangifera indica. Sexual morph: Ascomata 430–500 μm high, 320–350 μm diam., scattered, semi-immersed to immersed, papilla erumpent through host surface, coriaceous to carbonaceous, dark brown to black, globose to subglobose, ostiolate. Ostiole crest-like, variable in shape, central, periphysate, broadly papillate, with an irregular pore-like opening. Peridium 25–40 μm wide, thick, composing two layers of irregular cells arranged in a textura angularis, outer layer with darker, light brown to brown flattened cells, inner layer comprising several layers of hyaline cells. Hamathecium 1.5–3 μm wide, massive, long cylindrical cellular, anastomosed, cellular pseudoparaphyses, hyaline, septate with small guttules. Asci 60–80 × 7–9 μm (x̅ = 60.9 × 7.2 μm, n = 20), 8-spored, bitunicate, cylindrical to cylindric-clavate, short pedicellate with furcate to obtuse ends, apically rounded with an indistinct ocular chamber. Ascospores 13–17 × 3.0–5.5 μm (x̅ = 15.1 × 3.7 μm, n = 25), biseriate, overlapping, fusiform to sunbfusoid, strongly constricted at the median septum, straight or slightly curved, 1-septate at the center, enlarged near the septum at the upper cell, hyaline, guttulate, smooth-walled, mostly with 4 guttules, with a helmet-shaped to subcylindrical mucilaginous sheath at each end when immature, invisible at maturity, 2.1–5.6 μm long, 2.2–4.4 μm wide. Asexual morph: Not observed.

Mycelia superficial, medium dense, irregular, flat, slightly raised, surface smooth with crenate edge, fluffy to velvety with smooth aspects, zonate with different sector yellowish-brown to moss brown at the margin brownish-grey at the center; from below, light moss brown at margin, dark gray at the middle, brown at the center, no pigmentation and sporulation.
Material examined: Taiwan, Chiayi, Fanlu Township area, Dahu village, dead stems of Mangifera indica (Anacardiaceae), 5 August 2017, D.S. Tennakoon, DTW 018C (18–0069, holotype), ex-type living culture, MFLUCC 17–2652.
GenBank numbers: MG931027(LSU), MG931030 (SSU), MG931033 (ITS).
Notes: The isolate MFLUCC 17–2652 has formerly identified as Neovaginatispora fuckelii by Tennakoon et al. (2018) but in our phylogenetic analysis, it clustered with Neovaginatispora sp. MFLUCC 11–0577, and forms a separate subclade with N. fuckelii and N. clematidis with 100% MP, 1.00 BYPP support (Fig. 28). The pairwise nucleotide comparison of LSU and ITS of N. mangiferae MFLUCC 17–2652 show 2 bp (0/24%, 838 bp) and 1 bp (0.23%, 442 bp) differences with Neovaginatispora sp. MFLUCC 11–0577, respectively, with no differences on SSU sequence data. For this reason, we named the unidentified Neovaginatispora species (strain MFLUCC 11–0577) as another strain of N. mangiferae. In pairwise nucleotide comparisons of Neovaginatispora mangiferae MFLUCC 17–2652 with N. fuckelii MFLUCC 17–1334, there is a nucleotide difference of 6.94% (30/432 bp) in ITS, and 2.71% (22/813 bp) in LSU genes. A pairwise nucleotide comparisons of LSU, SSU, and ITS sequence data of N. mangiferae MFLUCC 17–2652 and N. clematidis reveals 22 bp (2.72%, 810 bp), 6 bp (0.64%, 938 bp), and 27 bp (7.03%, 384 bp) differences, respectively. Neovaginatispora mangiferae differs from N. fuckelii KT 634 by having larger ascomata (430–500 × 320–350 μm vs 150–180 × 200–250 μm) and thicker peridium (25–40 μm vs 15–25 μm), and periphyses in ostiole. The asci and ascospores are similar in size but ascospores of N. mangiferae is fusiform with acute ends but N. fuckelii has a fusiform ascospores with obtuse ends (Thambugala et al. 2015; Tennakoon et al. 2018; Bao et al. 2019). Neovaginatispora mangiferae has larger ascomata (430–500 × 320–350 μm vs 145–250 × 108–160 μm), shorter asci (60–80 × 7–9 μm vs. 53–105 × 9–12 µm), and smaller ascospores (13–17 × 3.0–5.5 μm vs. 16–19 × 5–7 µm) compared to N. clematidis (Phukhamsakda et al. 2020).

Ostiolar neck slit-like, elongate, laterally compressed, composed of globose to elongate, brown to black cells, with a pore-like opening and hyaline periphyses. Peridium unequal in thickness, two-layered, outer layer comprising somewhat flattened cells, fusing and indistinguishable from the host tissues, inner layer comprising lightly pigmented to hyaline cells. Pseudoparaphyses numerous, cellular, hypha-like, hyaline, septate, anastomosing above the asci. Asci 8-spored, bitunicate, fissitunicate, cylindrical to clavate, with a short or long pedicel, apically round with an ocular chamber. Ascospores uni- to bi-seriate, narrowly ellipsoidal or fusiform, straight to slightly curved, hyaline when immature, becoming yellow when mature, 1-septate, occasionally producing pseudosepta, septum mostly median, upper cell slightly broader than lower cell, smooth, thin-walled, with or without bipolar appendages or entire sheath. Asexual morph: Hyphomycetous. Hyphae septate, hyaline to lightly pigmented, mostly smooth, thick-walled, moniliform. Chlamydospores numerous, mostly in chains, globose to subglobose, smooth, initially hyaline then lightly pigmented at maturity, arising from the mycelium, formed intercalarily or terminally.
Type species: Vaginatispora aquatica K.D. Hyde
Notes: Hyde (1995) introduced Vaginatispora to accommodate Vaginatispora aquatica K.D. Hyde (= Lophiostoma vaginatispora Huang Zhang & K.D. Hyde), which was previously placed in Massarinaceae. Eight species are included in this genus and members are characterized by depressed globose ascomata, immersed beneath a blackened neck, with a slot-like ostiole, numerous filamentous pseudoparaphyses, cylindrical to clavate asci and narrowly ellipsoidal, hyaline, 1-septate ascospores with a mucilaginous collar around its equator, having large guttules in each cell, and a spreading papilionaceous sheath (Thambugala et al. 2015; Hashimoto et al. 2018). We followed the treatment of Dong et al. (2020) and Hongsanan et al. (2020a, b) in this genus.

Notes: Three species of Vaginatispora are recorded in freshwater habitats: V. aquatica (Hyde 1995; Tsui et al. 2000; Zhang et al. 2014a, b), V. armatispora (Hu et al. 2010; Bao et al. 2019; Hyde et al. 2019), and V. nypae (Hyde et al. 2020a, b, c; Boonmee et al. 2021). In this series, we introduce another novel species of Vaginatispora, V. lignicola, from a freshwater habitat in Thailand. Vaginatispora lignicola (MFLUCC 22–0078) confirms with the generic ascomatal morphology (erumpent, uniloculate, glabrous, slot-like ostiole, with numerous hyaline periphyses) but differs from the known members of the genus in having ascospores without a wide papilionaceous sheath or distinct hyaline appendages at both ends. Based on the phylogenetic analysis of combined LSU, SSU, ITS, tef1, and rpb2 sequence data, V. lignicola is basal to V. aquatica with high bootstrap support (97 ML and 1.00 BYPP) (Fig. 28). The former differs from V. aquatica in the measurement (50–72 × 14–17 µm vs 36–48 × 11–16) and color of the ascospores (initially hyaline then becoming yellowish at maturity vs hyaline), and the absence of a sheath when stained in Indian ink wherein the latter have wide papilionaceous sheaths (Hyde 1995). The novel taxon differs from the freshwater strains of V. armatispora and V. nypae by having larger ascospores (50–72 × 14–17 µm vs 22–30 × 5.5–8 µm vs 26–29 × 6–7 µm) without a mucilaginous sheath and hyaline appendages at both ends (Bao et al. 2019; Hyde et al. 2019; Boonmee et al. 2021). Multi-locus phylogenetic analyses showed that V. lignicola is a distinct taxon in Vaginatispora with 49 bp (9.32%, 526 bp) and 14 bp (1.74%, 804) nucleotide differences in the ITS and LSU sequence data of the type species, V. aquatica, respectively. The present work is the first report also of the morphological characteristics of the asexual morph of Vaginatispora. A simplified key to species of Vaginatispora is provided herein.

Phaeoseptaceae S. Boonmee, Thambugala & K.D. Hyde, Mycosphere 9(2): 323 (2018).
Notes: Phaeoseptaceae was introduced by Hyde et al. (2018) to accommodate Phaeoseptum, Lignosphaeria and Neolophiostoma. The LSU-SSU-rpb2-tef1 multigene phylogeny in Hyde et al. (2018) showed a well-supported Phaeoseptaceae clade sister to Halotthiaceae. The species in Phaeoseptaceae share immersed or erumpent ascomata, dark brown to black outer peridium, cylindrical, branched, septate pseudoparaphyses, 8-spored, bitunicate, cylindrical-clavate, long pedicellate asci, and brown, muriform ascospores. Based on morphology and phylogeny, Thambugala et al. (2015) treated Lignosphaeria in Dothideomycetes, genera incertae sedis, and Liu et al. (2019a, b, c, d) treated Neolophiostoma in Halotthiaceae. In a recent revision of Dothideomycetes, Hongsanan et al. (2020b) accepted only Phaeoseptum and Pleopunctum in Phaeoseptaceae which was followed by Wijayawardena et al. (2020, 2022).
Phaeoseptum Ying Zhang, J. Fourn. & K.D. Hyde, in Zhang, Fournier, Phookamsak, Bahkali & Hyde, Mycologia 105(3): 606 (2013)
Notes: Zhang et al. (2013) introduced Phaeoseptum, which differs from Mauritiana in having dictyosporous ascospores. There are six Phaeoseptum species: P. aquaticum (on driftwood of Salix sp., France), P. carolshearerianum (on decaying wood of Avicennia marina, India), P. hydei (on dead twigs of Delonix regia, Thailand), P. mali (on dead stems of Malus halliana, China), P. manglicola (on decaying wood of Avicennia marina, India) and P. terricola (on dead wood, Thailand).

Notes: Our two new collections of Phaeoseptum thailandicum share similar morphology of Phaeoseptum in having immersed ascomata under a small blackened pseudoclypeus, cylindrical-clavate asci with a distinct pedicel and broadly fusoid, brown ascospores with multi-transverse septa. Combined phylogeny shows that the novel taxon is sister to P. mali + P. manglicola clade with high statistical support (Fig. 31).
Pleopunctum N.G. Liu, K.D. Hyde & J.K. Liu, in Liu et al., Mycosphere 10(1): 767 (2019)
Notes: Pleopunctum was introduced to accommodate two hyphomycetous species based on phylogenetic analyses and divergence time which is the first asexual morph genus in Phaeoseptaceae (Liu et al. 2019a, b, c, d). There are five Pleopunctum species are accepted in Species Fungorum (2022a, b) with molecular data and all of them were found from China and Thailand in terrestrial habitate (Liu et al. 2019a, b, c, d; Phukhamsakda et al. 2020; Boonmee et al.2021).

Material examined: Thailand, Chiang Mai Province, Mae Taeng District, MRC, on bamboo culms, 15 July 2020, Y.R. Sun, M10 (MFLU 21–0091); living culture, MFLUCC 21–0064.
Hosts: decaying wood (Liu et al. 2019a, b, c, d) and bamboo (this study)
Distribution: China (Liu et al. 2019a, b, c, d) and Thailand (this study)
GenBank numbers: OM250079 (ITS), OM258687 (LSU)
Notes: Pleopunctum ellipsoideum was isolated from decaying wood in China by Liu et al. (2019a, b, c, d). The morphological characters of our collection are the same as in P. ellipsoideum (MFLUCC 19-0390). Phylogenetic analysis based on a combined LSU, ITS and tef1 sequence data indicated that our isolate and P. ellipsoideum (MFLUCC 19–0390) clustered together with high support (ML 100% and 0.99 BYPP; Fig. 31). Based on both morphology and phylogeny, we identified our taxon as P. ellipsoideum. This is the first geographical and host report of P. ellipsoideum on bamboo in Thailand.
Phaeosphaeriaceae M.E. Barr, Mycologia 71(5): 948 (1979)
Phaeosphaeriaceae has been subjected to various taxonomic changes since its establishment by Barr (1987). The inception of multi-gene phylogenetic analyses coupled with morphology has greatly resolved many taxonomic inconsistencies along with the introduction of several novel taxa (Phookamsak et al. 2014, 2017; Li et al. 2016; Crous et al. 2018; Hyde et al. 2020a, b, c). However, confusion in the placement of many taxa in the family still remains uncertain and problematic (Hongsanan et al. 2020b). Phaeosphaeriaceae at present accommodates more than 80 genera, with the taxa mainly exhibiting an endophytic, pathogenic and saprobic or hyperparasitic lifestyles (Hongsanan et al. 2020b).
Nodulosphaeria Rabenh., Klotzschii Herb. Viv. Mycol., Edn Nov, Ser. Sec., Cent. 8: no. 725 (in sched.) (1858)
Nodulosphaeria, was introduced by Rabenhorst (1858) and typified by N. hirta and was accommodated in Phaeosphaeriaceae by Barr (1987). The genus comprises endophytic, saprobic and pathogenic taxa which occur on a variety of hosts (Mapook et al. 2020; Chaiwan et al. 2019; Pasouvang et al. 2021). Nodulosphaeria taxa are principally characterised by ascomata with brown setae at the ostiole and three-to multi-septate ascospores with a swollen cell and often with terminal appendages (Shoemaker 1984; Mapook et al. 2016; Chaiwan et al. 2019). Molecular data for several Nodulosphaeria species listed in MycoBank (http://www.mycobank.org/, 07/2022) and Index Fungorum (http://www.indexfungorum.org/Names/Names.asp, 07/2022) are unavailable. A reference specimen for the type species N. hirta was recently designated by Mapook et al. (2016), who also provided molecular data for the same.

Saprobic on stem of Solidago virgaurea. Sexual morph: Ascomata 185–200 µm high, 200–225 µm diam. (x̅ = 192.3 × 213.1 µm, n = 5), appearing as black dots on host surface, immersed, unilocular, perithecial, solitary, usually scattered, globose to subglobose, dark brown, ostiolate. Ostioles 45–55 µm wide (x̅ = 52.2 µm, n = 5), centric, comprising internal dark brown setae. Ascomatal wall 14–23 µm at the sides and base, 4–5-layered; 25–35 µm near the apex, 5–7-layered; outer layers made up of thick-walled, dark brown cells of textura angularis, innermost layer comprising thin-walled, pale brown to hyaline cells of textura angularis or flattened cells. Pseudoparaphyses 1–3 µm wide, numerous, filiform, hyaline, branched. Asci 55–90 × 8–12 µm (x̅ = 74.1 × 9.2 µm, n = 40), 8-spored, bitunicate, cylindric-clavate, slightly curved, sessile to short-pedicellate, apically rounded with a minute ocular chamber. Ascospores (17–)20–27 × 3–4 µm (x̅ = 22.6 × 3.7 µm, n = 45), overlapping 1–2-seriate, hyaline when immature, becoming yellowish-brown at maturity, long fusiform, ellipsoidal to subcylindrical, straight or slightly curved, with 4–5 transverse septa, second cell from the apex slightly swollen, constricted at second septum from the apex, thick- and smooth-walled, with rounded ends, with hyaline appendages (1–2.5 µm long, 2.5–4 µm wide) at both ends. Asexual morph: Illustrated in Li et al. (2015).
Material examined: Italy, Forlì Cesena, Valico del Tramazzo, on dead aerial stem of Solidago virgaurea L. (Asteraceae), 19 June 2021, Erio Camporesi, IT4714 (MFLU 22-0278)
Hosts: Campanula trachelium (Campanulaceae, Chaiwan et al. 2019), Dactylis sp. (Poaceae, Li et al. 2015), Solidago virgaurea (Asteraceae, this study), Thalictrum sp. (Ranunculaceae, Hyde et al. 2019)
Distribution: Italy (Li et al. 2015; Chaiwan et al. 2019; Hyde et al. 2019; this study)
GenBank numbers: ON873995 (LSU); ON873997(ITS); ON885742 (tef1)
Notes: The strain MFLU 22-0278 clustered with the strains Nodulosphaeria digitalis MFLUCC 15-2716 (type strain) and MFLUCC 17-2418, and Nodulosphaeria thalictri MFLUCC 18-1138 with a good statistical support (99% ML, 0.98 BYPP) in the SSU-LSU-ITS-tef1 phylogenetic tree. Pairwise comparison among the two strains of N. digitalis MFLUCC 15-2716 and MFLUCC 17-2418, and N. thalictri MFLUCC 18-1138 is as follows: one base pair (bp) difference out of 1000 bp (0.1%) in SSU between N. thalictri MFLUCC 18-1138 and N. digitalis MFLUCC 17-2418; no bp difference among the three strains out of 844 bp in LSU and 504 bp in ITS respectively; two bp differences out of 891 bp (0.2%) in tef1 between N. thalictri MFLUCC 18-1138 and N. digitalis MFLUCC 17-2418. The pairwise identity therefore reveals insignificant differences among the three strains (N. digitalis MFLUCC 15-2716 and MFLUCC 17-2418, and N. thalictri MFLUCC 18-1138) according to Jeewon and Hyde (2016). Therefore, N. thalictri MFLUCC 18-1138 is another strain of N. digitalis.
Morphologically, there are some differences between ‘N. thalictri’ and N. digitalis in terms of the position of ascomata (immersed or semi-immersed in ‘N. thalictri’ while superficial to semi-immersed in N. digitalis), ostiole (comprising internal brown to dark brown cells of textura globulosa in ‘N. thalictri’ while no such observation was made for N. digitalis) (Chaiwan et al. 2019, Hyde et al. 2019). Furthermore, there are some differences in size of the morphological structures between ‘N. thalictri’ and N. digitalis (Table 2) (Chaiwan et al. 2019; Hyde et al. 2019). However, all these differences may be the result of phenotypic plasticity which has arisen from the need to adapt to environmental variations and/or different hosts (Hyde et al. 2019). The differences in the morphological characters are not being reflected by any significant phylogenetic difference herein. Such occurrence has also been observed for other taxa (Mapook et al. 2016; Hyde et al. 2019; Pasouvang et al. 2021). Based on the above morpho-phylogenetic approach, ‘N. thalictri’ is considered as N. digitalis.

The strain MFLU 22-0278 in this study clusters with the three strains of N. digitalis with 99% bootstrap support and 0.98 BYPP. There is no significant difference in the pairwise comparison among strains MFLU 22-0278 and MFLUCC 15-2716, MFLUCC 17-2418 as well as MFLUCC 18-1138 with regards to the LSU, ITS and tef1 sequence data. Our strain MFLU 22-0278 resembles N. digitalis MFLUCC 17-2418 and MFLUCC 18-1138 (N. digitalis MFLUCC 15-2716 was described in its asexual morph) in having ascomatal wall made up of cells of textura angularis, sessile or short-pedicellate asci and septate ascospores with a swollen cell and terminal appendages (Chaiwan et al. 2019; Hyde et al. 2019). Our collection differs from N. digitalis MFLUCC 17-2418 and MFLUCC 18-1138 mainly in having ostioles with internal brown setae (Fig. 34). The morphological characters also vary in size (Table 2). This can be accounted for by environmental and host variations as stated above. These morpho-phylogenetic analyses therefore support MFLU 22-0278 as another strain of N. digitalis. The latter is herein reported as a new record from Solidago virgaurea in Italy.
Pleosporaceae Nitschke, Verh. naturh. Ver. preuss. Rheinl. 26: 74 (1869)
This family consists of endophytes, pathogens and saprobes and has a worldwide distribution (Hongsanan et al. 2020b). Twenty-three taxa are accepted in this family (Wijayawardene et al. 2022)
Bipolaris Shoemaker, Can. J. Bot. 33:882(1959)
Species of this genus are pathogens, saprobes and endophytes on a wide range of hosts with a worldwide distribution (Jayawardena et al. 2019a). Bhunjun et al. (2020), provided polyphasic approaches to delineate species in Bipolaris. There are 140 records in Index Fungorum (2022a, b) for this genus, however less than 50 species have molecular data.
Bipolaris luttrellii Alcorn, Mycotaxon 39: 378 (1990)
Index Fungorum number: IF127658; Facesoffungi number: FoF01302; Fig. 35
Saprobic on Poaceae sp. Sexual morph: Not observed. Asexual morph: Conidiophores up to 200 μm long and 7–10 μm thick, arising singly or in groups of a few conidia, simple, septate, straight or flexuous, sometimes geniculate at the upper part, smooth, pale to mid-brown. Conidiogenous nodes dark brown, distinct. Conidia (75–)90–125 × 17–26(–)28) μm ( = 107 × 21 μm, n = 30), straight or curved, broadly fusiform or obclavate fusiform, widest near centre, tapering towards rounded ends, pale to mid brown, 5–9-distoseptate, smooth-walled. Hilum slightly protuberant, single germ tubes arising from each end.
Material examined: China, Guizhou Province, Guizhou Academy of Agricultural Sciences, dead leaves of Poaceae sp., 20 July 2015, Kasun M. Thambugala CN020 (MFLU 16-2836), living culture MFLUCC 16–0281, GZCC 15–0045.
Host: Dactyloctenium aegyptium, on dead leaves of unidentified Poaceae host (Alcorn 1990; This study)
Distribution: Australia, China (Alcorn 1990; This study)
GenBank numbers: OQ154965 (ITS)
Notes: Bipolaris luttrelli is only known from the type specimen before this record. This species is morphologically similar to B. setarieae (Manamgoda et al. 2014). Bipolaris luttrelli can be distinguished from its sister taxa by having fewer conidiogenous loci on the conidiophores and its darker conidia with pale end cells (Manamgoda et al. 2014). In our phylogenetic analyses (Fig. 36), our strain clustered with the ex-type strain of B. luttrelli with a higher bootsrap support. There are 10 base pair differences between our strain and the ex-type strain in ITS. Both of these strains lack tef1 gene region. Therefore, we identified our strain as B. luttrelli and provides the first report from China.
Curvularia Boedijn, Bull. Jard. bot. Buitenz, 3 Sér. 13(1): 123 (1933)
This is a species-rich genus which comprised of numerous pathogenic, saprobic and epiphytic fungi (Manamgoda et al. 2012a, b, 2015; Jayawardena et al. 2019a). Phytopathogenic species have been recorded mostly on poaceous hosts as well as non-poaceous hosts. Several Curvularia spp. have also been reported as opportunistic human pathogens on immunocompromised patients (Madrid et al. 2014; Manamgoda et al. 2011, 2015; Danish Khan et al. 2017; Tóth et al. 2020). There are more than 200 epithets recorded in Index Fungorum (2022a, b). To date, 130 species of Curvularia have been accepted within the genus (Ferdinandez et al. 2021).

Notes: Isolate USJCC-0025 is identified as Curvularia senegalensis based on morphology and phylogeny (Fig. 38). The fresh isolate was collected from a dead panicle of Zea mays. Curvularia senegalensis has so far recorded in Sri Lanka only from Hevea brasiliensis (Adikaram and Yakandawala 2020). Moreover, it has only been reported on Zea mays from Brazil, Malaysia and Nigeria. To our knowledge, this is the first record of Curvularia senegalensis on Zea mays from Sri Lanka.
Pyrenophora Fr., Summa veg. Scand., Sectio Post. (Stockholm): 397 (1849)
Pyrenophora is a species-rich genus in Pleosporales which encompasses saprobic and phytopathogenic fungi associated mainly with poaceous hosts. The sexual morphs are characterized by black, thick-walled, subglobose to pyriform ascomata with an apical ostiole and conspicuous dark brown setae. Asci are bitunicate, show a large non-amyloid ring and usually contain eight pale yellowish brown or pale brown, muriform ascospores surrounded by a mucilaginous sheath. Asexual morphs show macronematous, brown, sympodial conidiophores with tretic conidiogenous cells and dematiaceous, rather straight, distoseptate conidia with a dark, non-protruding basal scar. Conidial germination occurs from polar or intermediate cells (Sivanesan 1987). This genus is monophyletic and genetically clearly distinct from other pleosporalean genera with a superficially similar conidial apparatus, such as Bipolaris, Exserohilum and Porocercospora. Multilocus DNA sequence data is currently available for at least 26 Pyrenophora species (Marin-Felix et al. 2019).
Pyrenophora verruculosa Madrid & Cantillo, sp. nov.
Mycobank number: 844464; Facesoffungi number: FoF10420; Fig. 40
Etymology: The name refers to the verruculose conidia produced by this species
Holotype: SGO 168420
Probably saprobic or pathogenic to an unidentified member of Poaceae. Sexual morph: Not observed. Asexual morph: Hyphomycetous. Vegetative hyphae septate, branched, light olivaceous to mid olivaceous brown, thin to thick-walled, smooth, 2–6 µm wide, anastomosing, occasionally showing deposits of a mucilaginous dark brown material. Conidiophores macronematous, mononematous, solitary, septate, simple, slightly flexuous to strongly geniculate, light olivaceous brown to dark brown, often paler at the apex, smooth to verruculose, with cell walls often thicker than those of the supporting vegetative hyphae, 300–1270 × 5–9 µm with subnodulose to nodulose intercalary swellings up to 11 µm wide. Conidiogenous cells integrated, terminal and intercalary, mostly subcylindrical, mono- to polytretic, proliferating sympodially, 15–28 µm long. Conidia narrowly clavate, narrowly ellipsoidal to fusiform or subcylindrical, straight to slightly curved, light olivaceous brown to dark brown, verruculose, (26–)32–63(–74) × 12–21 µm, 3–5(mostly 4)-distoseptate, often constricted at the uppermost distoseptum, with a rounded apex and an obconically truncate or rounded base, basal cell sometimes delimited by a thick, dark septum. Hilum thick and dark. Microsclerotia abundant, mostly 45–240 µm wide.
Culture characteristics: Colonies on water agar with sterilized maize leaves dark brown, hairy, with abundant clumps of microsclerotia.
Material examined: Chile, El Loa Province, Atacama Desert, near Calama, isolated from unidentified dead Poaceae, 15 October 2015, H. Madrid & L. Linaje (SGO 168420, holotype).
GenBank numbers: ON722346 (ITS), ON722346 (LSU), ON736764 (gpdh).
Notes: Due to mobility restrictions during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, the ex-type strain (HM 201), which had been preserved in sterile water, could not be properly maintained for several months. Recent attempts to reactivate the strain have been unsuccessful and the fungus probably died. However, the holotype was deposited at SGO and ex-type sequences of ITS, LSU and gpdh are available in GenBank. DNA sequence analyses revealed that Pyrenophora verruculosa is clearly distinct from all other members of Pyrenophora represented in GenBank. The closest hits in BLAST searches with the ITS sequence of strain HM 201 were Pyrenophora novozelandica (CBS 127934) (ex-type, GenBank MK539997, 96.55% similarity), P. fugax (CBS 509.77) (GenBank MK539985, 95.23% similarity), P. nisikadoi (CBS 190.29) (ex-type, as Bipolaris brizae, GenBank MH855213, 93.57% similarity), and P. nobleae (CBS 259.80) (GenBank MK539994, 91.33% similarity). BLAST searches with the gpdh sequence showed P. fugax (CBS 509.77) (GenBank AY004822, 95.70% similarity) and P. nobleae (CBS 966.87) (GenBank AY004824, 88.81% similarity) as the closest matches. With LSU, similar results were obtained, but with higher similarity percentages, as expected for this rather conserved locus. In the phylogenetic analysis, only ITS sequence data was used considering that LSU offers little resolution for closely related taxa in Pleosporales, and gpdh is available for a smaller number of species than ITS. In the ITS-based phylogenetic tree (Fig. 41), P. verruculosa, P. novozelandica and P. fugax formed a clade with 83% bootstrap support. These close relatives can easily be distinguished from P. verruculosa on the basis of conidial dimensions, i.e. smaller in P. novozelandica, 20.5–58 × 9.5–14 µm, and longer in P. fugax, 50–170 × 14–24 µm (Ellis 1961; Sivanesan 1987; Marin-Felix et al. 2019). Clumps of thick-walled, strongly pigmented cells superficially resembling the microsclerotia of P. verruculosa, have been reported in other Pyrenophora species, such as P. nisikadoi and P. pseudoerythrospila (Marin-Felix et al. 2019). These species, however, are phylogenetically clearly distinct from P. verruculosa (Fig. 41).
Tetraplosphaeriaceae Kaz. Tanaka & K. Hiray., Stud. Mycol. 64: 177 (2009)
Tetraplosphaeriaceae was established to accommodate five genera, viz Polyplosphaeria, Pseudotetraploa, Quadricrura, Tetraplosphaeria with Tetraploa sensu stricto asexual morphs (the type genus) and Triplosphaeria (Tanaka et al. 2011). Hyde et al. (2013) later treated Tetraplosphaeria as a synonym of Tetraploa which has been applied previously. Up to now, nine genera are accepted in Tetraplosphaeriaceae viz Aquatisphaeria, Byssolophis, Ernakulamia, Polyplosphaeria, Pseudotetraploa, Quadricrura, Shrungabeeja, Tetraploa and Triplosphaeria (Wijayawardene et al. 2022). Members of this family are mostly reported as saprobe from aquatic and terrestrial habitats (Tibpromma et al. 2018; Hongsanan et al. 2020a, b; Hyde et al. 2020a, b, c; Li et al. 2021a, b).

= Tetraplosphaeria Kaz. Tanaka & K. Hiray., in Tanaka et al., Stud. Mycol. 64: 177 (2009)
Notes: Tetraploa was introduced by Berkeley and Broome (1850) with T. aristata as the type species. The sexual morph is characterized by small globose ascomata, narrowly fusiform ascospores and appendage-like sheath. The asexual morph belonging to Tetraploa sensu stricto has a columnar conidial body, with several prominent setose appendages at the apex (Hyde et al. 2013; Li et al. 2021a, b). Hyde et al. (2013) transferred species in Tetraplosphaeria to Tetraploa. In this study, we introduce one new species to Tetraploa based on morphology and molecular analysis with full description and illustration.
Tetraploa dashaoensis C.F. Liao & Doilom, sp. nov.

Etymology: In reference to the location where the fungus was collected.
Holotype: KUN–HKAS 107636
Saprobic on dead stem of Saccharum arundinaceum. Sexual morph: Not observed. Asexual morph: hyphomycetous. Colonies superficial, effuse, gregarious, brown to dull green. Mycelium partly immersed in natural substratum, brunched, septate, hyaline. Conidiophores absent. Conidiogenous cells micronematous, integrated, monoblastic, intercalary, short cylindrical. Conidia 25–43 × 13–36 µm ( = 31 × 23 µm, n = 30), solitary, straight, septate, unbranched, mostly smooth-walled at the base of immature conidia, becoming verrucose at mature conidia, composed of 1–4 columns at the base, 1–3-septate in each column, with 1–4 apical appendages. Appendage 148–258 µm long ( = 186 µm, n = 30), 6–15 µm wide at the base with dull green, 3–8 µm wide at the apex with hyaline, usually composed of three to four appendages, rarely one or two, euseptate, 6–23-septate, smooth, straight or divergent to intertwined; immature appendages 21–81 µm long ( = 43 µm, n = 30), with 1–5-septate.
Culture characteristics: Conidia germinating on PDA, germination tube growing from both ends. Colonies on PDA reaching 10 to 14 mm diam. in 17 days at room temperature (25 ± 2 °C), mycelium dense, floccose, surface smooth, velutinous spot centre with flat substrate, circle or irregular margin, light brown to yellow–brown, dark brown towards to white margin in above; white at centre, dark brown towards margin in reverse. No pigment production.
Material examined: China, Yunnan Province, Kunming City, from dead stem of Saccharum arundinaceum (Retz.) (Poaceae), 4 July 2020, C.F. Liao, (KUN–HKAS 107636, holotype), ex-type living culture KUMCC 21-0010.
GenBank number: OL473549 (ITS), OL473555 (LSU), OL473556 (SSU), OL505601 (tub2), OL505599 (tef1).
Notes: Phylogenetic analyses of the combined LSU, ITS, SSU, tub2 and tef1 sequence data showed that our new collection Tetraploa dashaoensis KUMCC 21-0010 is related to Tetraploa aquatica (MFLU 19-0995, MFLU 19-0996), but forms a distinct linage with 98% ML, 83% MP and 0.99 BYPP values (Fig. 43). Tetraploa dashaoensis shares some morphological characteristics with the phylogenetically closest species T. aquatica in having cylindrical conidiogenous cells, a verrucose conidial base and 1–4 apical appendages with euseptate. However, T. dashaoensis differs from T. aquatica in having a different conidial colour (dull green vs. brown to pale brown), longer conidia (25–43 µm vs. 22.5–27 µm), longer appendages (148–258 µm vs. 98–134 μm), and more septate appendages (6–23-septate vs. 6–10-septate). In addition, T. dashaoensis has intertwined appendages, which were absent in T. aquatic (Li et al. 2021a, b). Phylogenetic analyses and morphological characters support our collection to be different species. Thus, we introduce T. dashaoensis as a new species based on morphology and phylogeny.
Torulaceae Corda, in Sturm, Deutschl. Fl., 3 Abt. (Pilze Deutschl.) 2: 71 (1829)
Notes: Sturm (1829) introduced Torulaceae with Torula as the type genus. There are six genera accepted in Torulaceae, namely Dendryphion, Neotorula, Rostriconidium, Rutola, Sporidesmioides and Torula (Hongsanan et al. 2020b). Torulaceae species are characterized by having erect, micro- or macronematous, straight or flexuous, subcylindrical conidiophores and doliiform to ellipsoid or clavate, brown, smooth to verruculose conidiogenous cells. Conidia are subcylindrical, phragmosporous, acrogenous, brown, dry, and smooth to verrucose, characteristically produced in branched chains (Hyde et al. 2016; Li et al. 2017a, b; Mapook et al. 2020). In this study, we follow Mapook et al. (2020) as the recent treatment for Torulaceae.
Torula Pers, Ann. Bot. (Usteri) 15: 25 (1795)
Notes: Persoon (1794) established Torula and was typified by T. herbarum. Torula species are characterized by having a terminal or lateral, monoblastic or polyblastic conidiogenous cells, which have a basally thickened and heavily melanized wall, with the apex thin-walled and frequently collapsing and becoming coronate (Crane and Miller 2016). There are 54 Torula species listed in Species Fungorum (2022a, b), however, only 18 taxa have molecular data.

GenBank numbers: MFLUCC 22-0176 – OP099550 (LSU), OP097673 (SSU), OP099562 (ITS), OP113821 (tef1) MFLUCC 20-0167 – MZ317501 (LSU); MZ317506 (ITS); MZ326657 (tef1); MZ326659 (rpb2) NCYUCC 19-0248 – MZ317502 (LSU); MZ317507 (ITS); MZ326658 (tef1); MZ326660 (rpb2)
Notes: In the multi-gene phylogeny, our strain (MFLUCC 22-0176) grouped with T. fici strains with moderate statistical support in ML analysis and a higher support in Baysian analysis (81% ML, 0.98 BYPP) (Fig. 45). Morphological comparisons revealed that our collection is similar to the holotype of T. fici (Crous et al. 2015a, b, c) by the distinct shape of the conidiophores and having 3–4 celled conidia. In addition, the conidiogenous cells of the type specimen are identical in shape with our collection. Therefore, based on both morphology and phylogeny evidence, we identify our specimen (MFLU 22-0251) as T. fici from Chiang Mai, Thailand. Torula fici was previously found from China on Musa sp. by Samarakoon et al. (2021). In this study, we report T. fici on Musa sp. for the first time from Thailand as a new collection. In addition, our strains (MFLU 19-2775 and NCYU 19-0367) share the size range of the conidial characters with T. fici (Crous et al. 2015a, b, c; Tibpromma et al. 2018; Mapook et al. 2020). The phylogeny also indicates that both strains were nested with other Torula fici strains in a 100% ML, 1.00 BYPP supported clade (Fig. 45). We conclude that our stains (MFLU 19-2775 and NCYU 19-0367) also belong to T. fici which was reported on Ficus septica from Taiwan as a new host record.

Notes: Dwayabeeja sundara as the type species in Dwayabeeja was introduced by Subramanian (1958). It has dark blackish-brown colonies and two types of conidia. Crane and Miller (2016) transferred D. sundara to Pseudotorula based on catenate phragmoconidia. It was recollected and isolated from bamboo culms in Chiang Mai Province, Thailand. Here, we provided sequences for it. Phylogenetic analyses show it is a distinct clade in Torula and sister to T. acaciae with high support (ML 100% and 1.00 BYPP). According to the similarities in morphology along with phylogenetic analyses, we propose Pseudotorula sundara as a synonym of Torula sundara.
Periconiaceae (Sacc.) Nann., Repertorio sistematico dei miceti dell'uomo e degli animali 4: 482 (1934).
Periconiaceae was accommodated as a distinct lineage in Massarineae by Tanaka et al. (2011) based on morpho molecular data. Four genera (viz. Bambusistroma, Flavomyces, Noosia and Periconia) are accepted with endophytic, saprobic and pathogenic nutritional modes (Sarkar et al. 2019; Hongsanan et al. 2020b, Samarakoon et al. 2020; Wijayawardene et al. 2022).
Periconia Tode, Fung. mecklenb. sel. (Lüneburg) 2: 2 (1791).
Periconia was introduced by Tode (1791) and typified by P. lichenoides. The asexual morph of the genus has pale to dark brown branched or unbranched conidiophores (also referred to as stipe). Conidiogenous cells of Periconia are monoblastic or polyblastic, and formed at the terminal ends or intercalary parts of the conidiophore. Periconia produces spherical, asepete, catenate or solitary conidia in pale to dark-brown. Both sexual and hypomycetous asexual morphs are recorded in this genus (Tanaka et al. 2015; Liu et al. 2017). There are 187 epithets listed in Index Fungorum (2022a, b). Periconia has been reported as a plant pathogen, endophyte and a common saprobe in terrestrial and aquatic habitats with a cosmopolitan distribution (Ellis 1961, 1976; Markovskaja and Kačergius 2014; Liu et al. 2017).

Saprobic on leaves of Vigna unguiculata. Sexual morph: Not observed. Asexual morph: Conidiophores with conidial heads were observed on foliar lesions of cowpea. Conidiophores observed after 2–3 weeks, simple, micro- and semi-macronematous, unbranched and branched, initially subhyaline to brownish, verruculose, and variable in length. Conidiogenous cells discrete, determinate, terminal or lateral, subglobose, mono- and polyblastic, smooth to verruculose, pale brown producing global verrucose conidia in acropetal chains (3–4 in number), 11.5–12.5 × 15 − 17 μm diam. (x̄ = 11.9 × 15.2 μm, n = 20), conidia pale brown to brown verrucose. Conidiogenous cells were formed on an apical cell and in the collar region around the septa, sometimes on short hyaline or subhyaline branchlets. From primary, hyaline, globose conidiogenous cells numerous secondary conidiogenous cells arise, which produce short chains of spherical, commonly verruculose but sometimes verrucose, pale brown to brown conidia measured 8.5–11.4 μm diam.
Cultural characteristics: Culture on MEA reaching 35 mm after 20 days at 25 °C. Fungal colony appeared cottony with abundant white to orange-white aerial mycelium. In reverse colony dark olive to dark olivaceous-grey with concentric dark olivaceous-brown. Hyphae hyaline sometime greyish green, smooth and verruculose later becomes brown orange.

GenBank numbers: OM811496 (ITS); OM811504 (LSU)
Notes: Detail descriptions and illustrations are presented in Mason and Ellis (1953) and Markovskaja and Kačergius (2014). Morphological inspection and measurements of conidiophores and conidia revealed that the fungal specimens described by Markovskaja and Kaergius (2014) for several Apiaceae hosts correspond well with the P. byssoides, which was based on lectotype material (Fries 1832). Phylogenetic analyses (Fig. 49) This is the first time that P. byssoides is reported from Fabaceae on Vigna unguiculata representing a new host record and geographical record (Table 3).

Culture characteristics: Conidia germinating on PDA within 36–48 h. Colonies on PDA, reach 15 mm after 18 days at 25 °C, at maturity, unevenly distributed radial furrows or linear marks were observed, surface notably rough at maturity with crenulate to crenate margin, the colony is completely black and powdery at maturity, moderately dense, reverse white to black.
Material examined: Russia, Krasnodar region, Sochi, Khstinsky City District, M.V. Frunze Health Care Resort, park, on a dying leafstalk of Musa basjoo Siebold & Zucc. ex Iinuma (Musaceae), 15 October 2018, Timur S. Bulgakov, BNR-001 (MFLU 18–1896), living culture MFLUCC 22-0178.
Known hosts: Cortaderia sp. (Poaceae, Monocotyledon) (Thambugala et al. 2017); on Caragana arborescens (Fabaceae, Dicotyledon) (Phookamsak et al. 2019); on Musa sp. (Musaceae, Monocotyledon) (Samarakoon et al. 2021 and this study).
Distribution: From Russia (This study), from Thailand (Thambugala et al. 2017, Samarakoon et al. 2021; this study), from Yunnan, China (Phookamsak et al. 2019)
GenBank numbers: OP097674 (LSU), OP099358 (SSU), OP099551 (ITS), OP113822 (tef1)
Notes: Based on BLASTn search results of SSU, LSU, ITS sequence data, MFLUCC 22-0178, showed high similarity to Periconia cortaderiae (MFLUCC 18-0668) as follows; SSU = 99.76%, LSU = 99.88%, ITS = 99.80%. Our new collection is similar to the holotype of P. cortaderiae (Thambugala et al. 2017), except the length and the shape of the conidiophores. Our collection has short conidiophores with respect to the holotype (60–130 × 3–4 μm vs. 400–800 × 4–9.4 μm). The conidiophore of our strain is notably curved and branched compared to other collections. The conidiogenesis is also found as terminal and intercalary on the conidiophores in our strain. The other collections of P. cortaderiae only had terminal conidial formation with respect to our finding. There is no significant difference in the nucleotide base pair comparison of our strain with the ex-type strain. In our multigene phylogeny, MFLUCC 22-0178 grouped with P. cortaderiae (MFLUCC 15-0451, MFLUCC 18-0668, MFLUCC 20-0236) with strong statistical support (ML = 100%, BYPP = 1.00). In this study, we identify our new collection as P. cortaderiae, from Musa sp. (Monocotyledon), from Russia for the first time as a new geographical record.
Tubeufiales S. Boonmee & K.D. Hyde.
Notes: Tubeufiales includes three families viz. Bezerromycetaceae, Tubeufiaceae and Wiesneriomycetaeae with 56 genera (Wijayawardene et al. 2022).
Tubeufiaceae M.E. Barr, Mycologia 71(5): 948 (1979).
Notes: Barr (1979) defined Tubeufiaceae based exclusively on the generic type, Tubeufia, and treated it in Pleosporales. Based on unique morphology and multigene phylogenetic investigations, Boonmee et al. (2012) formed the order Tubeufiales and designated Tubeufiaceae as the typical family. Previously, 19 genera were compared in Tubeufiaceae (Boonmee et al. 2012). Following that, Lu et al. (2018) reappraised Tubeufiaceae and accepted 43 taxa to this family based on phylogenetic analyses and morphological evidence. With the expansion of fungal investigations, the family Tubeufiaceae presently contains 47 genera (Lu et al. 2018; Liu et al. 2019a, b, c, d; Wijayawardena et al. 2022).
Helicoma Corda, Icon. fung. (Prague) 1: 15 (1837)
Notes: Helicoma was introduced by Corda (1837) who treated H. muelleri as the type species. It is one of the earliest described helicosporous hyphomycete genera (Liu et al. 2019a, b, c, d). Helicoma species have been found in tropical and temperate locations (Boonmee et al. 2012, 2014; Lu et al. 2018; Brahmanage et al. 2017), and there are 59 records in the genus (Lu et al. 2018; Liu et al. 2019a, b, c, d; Barreto et al. 2021).

Hosts: Unindentified submerged decaying wood (Lu et al. 2018), dead fruits of Dipterocarpus sp. (Dipterocarpaceae) (this study).
Distribution: Thailand (Lu et al. 2018, this study).
Notes: Helicoma aquaticum was described and illustrated by Lu et al. (2018) from an unidentified submerged decaying wood in Thailand. Based on the morphological characteristics, our collection shares similar morphology with the ex-type strain (Fig. 52). Comparisons of ITS, LSU and tef1 sequence data between our collection and the holotype showed that they are 2/ 549 bp (0.3%) of ITS, 9/1201 (0.7%) of LSU and 9/879 bp (1%) of tef1. We consider that our collection is the same as Helicoma aquaticum following the guidelines for species delineation proposed by Jeewon and Hyde (2016). This is the first report of Helicoma aquaticum on a Dipterocarpus sp. in Thailand.
Wiesneriomycetaceae Suetrong, Rungjind., Somrith. & E.B.G. Jones
Based on morphology and molecular phylogeny, Suetrong et al. (2014) introduced Wiesneriomycetaceae as order incertae sedis. Pratibha et al. (2015) placed Wiesneriomycetaceae in Tubeufiales. Bezerra et al. (2017) introduced Wiesneriomycetales to accommodate Wiesneriomycetaceae based on morphological characteristics and phylogenetic analyses. Based on phylogenetic inference and divergence times estimates, Liu et al. (2017) considered Wiesneriomycetales as a synonym of Tubeufiales. Hongsanan et al. (2020b) and Wijayawardena et al. (2020, 2022) accepted this family in Tubeufiales.
Wiesneriomyces Koord., Verh. K. Akad. Wet., tweede section 13(4): 246 (1907).
Notes: Wiesneriomyces species have setose, branched conidiophores, single-chain hyaline conidia, with a short isthmi separating the conidia (Suetrong et al. 2014; Hongsanan et al. 2020b). The sexual morph for this genus is not yet reported.

Dothideomycetes orders incertae sedis
Asterinales M.E. Barr ex D. Hawksw. & O.E. Erikss.
Notes: The order was introduced by Hawksworth and Eriksson (1986), based on the type species of the order, Asterina melastomatis Léveillé, which had its DNA extracted, sequenced and studied phylogenetically for the first time by Guatimosim et al. (2015), demonstrating that the Asterinales is polyphyletic. Based on molecular data of the type species, Asterinales stricto sensu includes two families, namely: Asterinaceae and Parmulariaceae (Guatimosim et al. 2015; Giraldo et al. 2017; Phookamsak et al. 2019; Johnston and Park 2019; Hongsanan et al. 2020a; Le Renard et al. 2020; Firmino and Pereira 2021).
Asterinaceae Hansford, Mycol. Pap. 15: 188 (1946)
Notes: Asterinaceae was proposed by Hansford (1946), undergoing several modifications over time in relation to the genera belonging to the family. Asterinaceae is polyphyletic and the Asterinaceae stricto sensu comprises the species grouping with the type species, Asterina melastomatis.
Asterina Léveillé, Annls Sci. Nat., Bot., sér. 3 3: 59 (1845)

GenBank numbers: MZ475298 (LSU)
Notes: Asterina brigadeirensis differs from the species previously reported on Melastomataceae (Léveillé 1845; Hennings 1904, 1909; Theissen 1912, 1913; Sydow and Sydow 1916; Yates 1917; Maublanc 1920; Ryan 1924, 1928; Sydow 1927, 1930; Sydow and Petrak 1929; Chardón and Toro 1930; Orejuela 1944; Petrak 1950; Hansford 1954; Yamamoto 1957; Hosagoudar and Abraham 2000). It is closest to A. venezuelana, which has smaller and ovoid to conoid appressoria, smaller and ovoid to clavate asci, and smaller and dark brown ascospores. Asterina brigadeirensis is easily separated from A. amadelpha, A. belluciae, A. centroniae, A. chrysophylli, A. confertissima, A. hypophyla, A. maublancii, A. melanotes, A. melastomatis, A. melastomatis-candidi, A. memecylonicae, A. pulla, A. schlechteriana, A. sinsuieiensis, A. uribei in having verruculose ascospores. Asterina antioquensis is distinct from the new species in having ovoid to ellipsoid appressoria, smaller asci, and smaller ascospores with an upper third septum. Asterina astroniae has narrow hyphae, smaller and ovoid appressoria, smaller and subglobose to ovoid asci, and finally smaller ascospores. Asterina denigrata differs from Asterina brigadeirensis in the hypophyllous colonies, smaller ascomata and asci with 2–6 spores, and smaller and dark brown ascospores. Asterina hughesii differs in the narrow appressoria, smaller and spatulate asci, lacking pseudoparaphyses, and smaller ascospores. Asterina melastomatacearum differs from Asterina brigadeirensis in the smaller asci, and smaller and ellipsoid-ovoidal ascospores. Asterina madikeriensis differs in the colonies epiphyllous, entire appressoria and smaller ascospores with tuberculate wall. Asterina melastomaticola differs in the narrow hyphae, lacking pseudoparaphyses, and much smaller ascospores with echinulate ornamentations. Asterina miconiae differs from Asterina brigadeirensis in the smaller and cylindrical to subglobose appressoria, smaller and elliptical-clavate asci, and smaller ascospores. Asterina miconiicola differs in the much smaller ascospores with an upper third septum. Asterina theissenii differs in having narrow and dark brown hyphae, cylindrical to hemispherical appressoria, lacking pseudoparaphyses, and much smaller asci and ascospores. Asterina transiens differs from new species in the cylindrical appressoria, smaller and elliptical asci, and much smaller ascospores. Asterina venezuelana differs in the narrow and dark brown hyphae, smaller and ovoid to clavate asci, and smaller and dark brown ascospores. Finally, Asterina lopi, described below differs from the new species in having smaller and cylindrical to globose appressoria, smaller and ovoid to subclavate asci, and much smaller ascospores. (Léveillé 1845; Hennings 1904, 1909a; Theissen 1912, 1913; Sydow and Sydow 1916; Yates 1917; Maublanc 1920; Ryan 1924, 1928; Sydow 1927, 1930; Sydow and Petrak 1929; Chardón and Toro 1930; Orejuela 1944; Petrak 1950; Hansford 1954; Yamamoto 1957; Hosagoudar and Abraham 2000; Hosagoudar 2006).

Material examined: Brazil, Minas Gerais, Extrema, on living leaves of Miconia sp. (Melastomataceae), 24 December 2014, A.L. Firmino & S.R. Pacheco (VIC 44219, holotype).
GenBank numbers: MZ475299 (LSU)
Notes: Twenty-seven species of Asterina have been reported previously in association with living leaves of melastomataceous hosts. Asterina guianensis on Miconia guianensis from Costa Rica and Miconia mirabilis from Puerto Rico and Virgin Islands, A. racemosae on Miconia racemose from Puerto Rico, and A. tetrazygiae on Tetrazygia sp., and Tetrazygia elaeagnoides from Puerto Rico and Virgin Islands, were described by Ryan (1924) and not used in the comparisons for having an ostiolar opening, a characteristic that does not belong to Asterina.
Asterina lopi differs from the species previously reported on Melastomataceae (Léveillé 1845; Hennings 1904, 1909; Theissen 1912, 1913; Sydow and Sydow 1916; Yates 1917; Maublanc 1920; Ryan 1924, 1928; Sydow 1927, 1930; Sydow and Petrak 1929; Chardón and Toro 1930; Orejuela 1944; Petrak 1950; Hansford 1954; Yamamoto 1957; Hosagoudar and Abraham 2000; Hosagoudar 2006) in morphology and on host association (Table 4). It is morphologically closer to A. melastomatacearum, which has larger and ellipsoid-ovoidal ascospores. Asterina lopi is easily separated from A. amadelpha, A. belluciae, A. centroniae, A. chrysophylli, A. confertissima, A. hypophyla, A. maublancii, A. melanotes, A. melastomatis, A. melastomatis-candidi, A. memecylonicae, A. pulla, A. schlechteriana, A. sinsuieiensis, and A. uribei in having verruculose ascospores; A. antioquensis, A. madikeriensis, A. miconiae, A. transiens and A. venezuelana in having lobate appressoria. Asterina astroniae is distinct from the new species in having ovoid appressoria, ascomata with irregular fissure, wider asci, and larger ascospores. Asterina denigrata has hypophyllous colonies, wider and dark brown hyphae, dark brown and subglobose to conoid appressoria, wider and ovoid to ellipsoid asci with 2–6 spores, and larger and dark brown ascospores. Asterina hughesii differs from Asterina lopi in the wider hyphae, larger appressoria, narrow and spatulate asci, lacking pseudoparaphyses, and larger ascospores. Asterina melastomaticola differs in the pulvinate to conoid appressoria, globose to ovoid asci, lacking pseudoparaphyses, and larger ascospores. Asterina miconiicola differs from Asterina lopi in the wider hyphae, larger appressoria, and narrow ascospores with an upper third septum. Asterina theissenii differs in having narrow and dark brown hyphae, globose to ovoid asci, lacking pseudoparaphyses, and larger ascospores (Léveillé 1845; Hennings 1904, 1909; Theissen 1912, 1913; Sydow and Sydow 1916; Yates 1917; Maublanc 1920; Ryan 1924, 1928; Sydow 1927, 1930; Sydow and Petrak 1929; Chardón and Toro 1930; Orejuela 1944; Petrak 1950; Hansford 1954; Yamamoto 1957; Hosagoudar and Abraham 2000).

Botryosphaeriales C.L. Schoch, Crous & Shoemaker.
Notes: Botryosphaeriales was introduced to accommodate a single family Botryosphaeriaceae by Schoch et al. (2006). Schoch et al. (2009a) accepted its position in the Pleosporomycetidae. Later, Planistromellaceae was recognised as a distinct family within Botryosphaeriales (Minnis et al. 2012) Phyllostictaceae was reinstated for Phyllosticta (Wikee et al. 2013). Another three families were introduced by Slippers et al. (2013), namely Saccharataceae for Saccharata, Aplosporellaceae for Aplosporella and Melanopsaceae for Melanops. Wyka and Broders (2016) introduced Septorioideaceae for Septorioides. Yang et al. (2018) raised Endomelanconiopsis and Pseudofusicoccum to familial status as Endomelanconiopsidaceae and Pseudofusicoccaceae, respectively. Wijayawardene et al. (2018) accepted the above nine families in the order. However, Phillips et al. (2019) synonymised Endomelanconiopsidaceae with Botryosphaeriaceae, Pseudofusicoccaceae with Phyllostictaceae, and Septorioideaceae with Saccharataceae based on morphology, phylogeny and evolutionary divergence times. Therefore, six families, i.e. Aplosporellaceae, Botryosphaeriaceae, Melanopsaceae, Phyllostictaceae, Planistromellaceae, Saccharataceae, are phylogenetically proved in the order now (Hongsanan et al. 2020a, b; Wijayawardene et al. 2020).
Aplosporellaceae Slippers, Boissin & Crous, Stud. Mycol. 76(1): 41 (2013)
Aplosporellaceae was introduced in Botryosphaeriales with two genera Aplosporella and Bagnisiella (Slippers et al. 2013). Sharma et al. (2017) added Alanomyces as a new genus in this family based on four loci phylogeny. Two genera are accepted in Aplosporellaceae viz. Alanomyces and Aplosporella (Dissanayake et al. 2021a, b; Wijayawardene et al. 2022).
Aplosporella Speg. Anal. Soc. cient. argent 10(4): 157 (1880).
Aplosporella was treated as a type genus of Aplosporellaceae in Botryosphaeriaceae (Crous et al. 2006; Schoch et al. 2006; Damm et al. 2007; Liu et al. 2012). The genus was established by Spegazzini (1880) and typified by Aplosporella chlorostroma. Later, Aplosporellaceae was introduced as a new family by Slippers et al. (2013). Wijayawardene et al. (2014a, b, 2016, 2020, 2022) also confirmed the phylogenetic placement and accepted Aplosporellaceae in Botryosphaeriaceae. There are 342 epithets of Aplosporella listed in Index fungorum (2022a, b). Aplosporella is characterized by muti-locular conidiomata, with hyaline to brown, aseptate conidia and, filiform paraphyses (Damm et al. 2007; Ekanayaka et al. 2016; Dissanayake et al. 2021a, b; Hyde et al. 2021). Aplosporella species are not easy to identify based on only morphology because of their wide range of host and morphological similarities. Many species were introduced based on their host occurrence and suggested that species in Aplosporella are not host-specific (Damm et al. 2007; Fan et al. 2015; Ekanayaka et al. 2016; Dou et al. 2017).

GenBank numbers: ON834371(LSU), ON823183(ITS)
Notes: Aplosporella artocarpi was introduced by Trakunyingcharoen et al. (2015). The species has morphologically similar to other Aplosporella species such as A. hesperidica, A. prunicola, and A. thailandica in having dark-brown, multilocular conidiomata with aseptate, hyaline to dark-brown conidia (Damm et al. 2007; Ekanayaka et al. 2016; Dissanayake et al. 2021a, b). In our phylogenetic analysis, Aplosporella artocarpi (MFLUCC 22-0010) is closely related to Aplosporella artocarpi (CPC 22,791) with ML = 70%, BYPP = 0.54. (Fig. 59). According to BLASTn result, the closest match for the LSU sequence was Aplosporella artocarpi (CPC 22791) with 99.83% similarity. The closest match for the ITS sequence was Aplosporella prunicola (CBS 121167) with 97.81% similarity. Furthermore, comparisons of ITS region between our taxon, Aplosporella artocarpi (MFLUCC 22-0010) and ex-type strain of A. artocarpi (CPC 22791) show one base pair difference (0.18%) across 531 nucleotides. Aplosporella species can be found on a wide range of hosts such as Anacardiaceae, Asteraceae, Caulerpaceae, Cupressaceae, Dictyotaceae, Fabaceae, Gingkoaceae, Moraceae, Myrtaceae, Proteaceae, and Rosaceae (Du et al. 2017; Mapook et al. 2020; Sahoo et al. 2021; Yang et al. 2021). We collected Aplosporella artocarpi (MFLU 22-0108) from Thailand and reported here as a new host record associated with Chromolaena odorata.
Botryosphaeriaceae Theiss. & Syd. [as 'Botryosphaeriacae'], Annls mycol. 16(1/2): 16 (1918)
Notes: Botryosphaeriaceae was introduced by Theissen and Sydow (1918) for three genera, Botryosphaeria, Phaeobotryon and Dibotryon. Initially, the family had been successively put into the orders Dothideales (Müller and von Arx 1950) and Pleosporales (Luttrell 1955), until Schoch et al. (2006) raised Botryosphaeriaceae to orderal status as Botryosphaeriales. Over decades of taxonomic revisions and updates based on morphology, the family has become increasingly complex. Kirk et al. (2008) estimated that there are 26 genera and 1517 species in the family, while Liu et al. (2012) accepted 29 genera and approximately 1485 species. Phillips et al. (2013) consider morphological characters alone as inadequate to define genera or identify species, and they detailed described 17 genera and 110 species which has molecular data. Thereafter, Dissanayake et al. (2017) introduced six new genera and 85 new species/species combinations. So far, 22 genera are accepted in Botryosphaeriaceae (Phillips et al. 2019; Hongsanan et al. 2020a).
Botryosphaeria Ces. & De Not., Comm. Soc. crittog. Ital. 1(fasc. 4): 211 (1863)
Notes: Botryosphaeria was introduced by Cesati and De Notaris (1863) based on the type species B. dothidea. However, as the type material was immature, B. dothidea was epitypified by Slippers et al. (2004) based on morphology and phylogenetic data which combined ITS, tef1 and tub2 genes. The sexual morphs are characterized by brown to black, globose ascostromata, comprising a botryose aggregate, or sometimes solitary, with a central ostiole, papillate or not, bitunicate, clavate asci, with a short pedicellate and a small ocular chamber, intermixed with hyphae-like, wide, septate pseudoparaphyses, and hyaline, aseptate, fusoid to ovoid ascospores, with or without a mucilaginous sheath (Liu et al. 2012). The asexual morphs of Botryosphaeria were reported as Dichomera, Diplodia, and Fusicoccum (Crous and Palm 1999; Slippers et al. 2004; Crous et al. 2006). They are characterized by uni- to multilocular pycnidial, frequently embedded in stromatic tissue, holoblastic, hyaline, subcylindrical conidiogenous cells, with 1–2 percurrent proliferation, and hyaline, aseptate, narrowly fusiform, or irregularly fusiform conidia, rarely forming a septum before germination, smooth with granular contents (Slippers et al. 2004). So far, 286 species names are recorded in Index Fungorum (2022a, b), in which 30 species known from culture are accepted in the genus.

Saprobic on submerged wood of freshwater. Sexual morph: Ascomata 300–500 μm diam., black, circular or subglobose to globose, scattered, gregarious, uni- to multi-loculate, immersed to erumpent on host tissue, with visible black dots or papilla. Ostiole circular, central, papillate. Peridium composed of two-layered locules, outer layer composed of dark brown or brown thick-walled cells of textura angularis, inner layer composed of hyaline thin-walled cells of textura angularis lining the locule. Pseudoparaphyses 2–4 μm wide, hyphae-like, septate.

Material examined: China, Yunnan Province, a small river of Puzhehei wetland, on dead submerged decaying wood of unidentified plants, 23 June 2019, Hao Yang, p27 (IFRD500–008), living culture KUMCC 20–0186.
Known hosts and distribution: broad range of hosts and wide geohraphical distribution (Farr and Rossman 2022)
GenBank numbers: MT559116 (LSU), MT559099 (ITS)
Notes: Botryosphaeria dothidea is the type species of the genus, and was reported extensively from all around the world (Fries 1823; Arx and Müller 1954). It was epitypified by Slippers et al. (2004) based on morphology and phylogeny. This taxon was collected from southwest China and its ITS sequence data of our isolate are 100% identical to the verified sequences of B. dothidea (MH992666 and MH973592). Based on morphology and phylogenetic analyses (Fig. 61), we identify the strain as B. dothidea. It is a new geographic record from China and a new habitat record from freshwater.
Class Laboulbeniomycetes Engler
Laboulbeniales Lindau
Notes: This order includes more than 2000 species described as obligate ectosymbionts on Arthropods. Wijayawardena et al. (2022) accepted three families viz. Ceratomycetaceae, Euceratomycetaceae and Laboulbeniaceae in this order.
Laboulbeniaceae G. Winter [as 'Laboulbenieae'], Rabenh. Krypt.-Fl., Edn 2 (Leipzig) 1.2: 918 (1886)
Notes: Goldman and Weir (2018) based on SSU rDNA sequence data identified this family to be consist of essentially terrestrial and sexually reproducing taxa with simple or compound endogenous antheridia. Santamaria and Pedersen (2021) accepted 147 genera in this family.
Rhachomyces Thaxt., Proc. Amer. Acad. Arts & Sci. 30: 468 (1895) [1894]
Notes: Rhachomyces is quite numerous: with six species described very recently, the number of accepted species in the genus is now 91 (Rossi and Christian 2020; Rossi and Leonardi 2020; Santamaria et al. 2020; Buyck et al. 2021). This genus is characterized by a series of superposed, usually short cells forming an axis that remembers a spinal column (hence the name, from Greek rachis = spine); these cells produce laterally both sterile appendages of various lengths and antheridial appendages, the latter ending with a single antheridium consisting of a simple phialide. In mature thalli the perithecia are usually found in an apical position and more frequently are single, but can be two or even more in a few species. The cells forming the outer wall of perithecia are arranged in four rows, each consisting of four unequal cells. Most of the species of Rhachomyces occur on ground beetles (Carabidae), but a few are associated with rove beetles (Staphylinidae) and two were found on small carrion beetles (Leiodidae Cholevinae). A single sequence is available for species in this genus (Goldmann and Weir 2018).
Rhachomyces cruralis W. Rossi & M. Leonardi, sp. nov.
Index Fungorum number: IF559505; Facesoffungi number: FoF13385; Fig. 62
Etymology: From Latin crus = leg, because the thalli of the new species are found only on the legs of the host insect.
Holotype: FI WR1997
Axis of the receptacle is straight or slightly curved, consisting of 10–15 brownish cells gradually increasing in size and bearing a dark brown band in the lower portion. Appendages almost straight, more numerous in the upper portion of the thallus, usually consisting of 5–6 dark brown cells separated by back septa and slight constriction, the distal one being distinctly longer and gradually paler, with the lower portion slightly inflated and the tip hyaline or almost so. Antheridial appendages very few, consisting of a short and brownish lower cell followed by a straight hyaline antheridium. Perithecium reddish-brown, subsessile, symmetrically elliptical, about twice as long as it is broad, regularly tapering to the darker, subconical tip and almost hyaline, rounded apex. Length from foot to perithecial apex 270–350 µm. Perithecium, including basal cells 125–175 × 60–80 µm. Longest appendages 100 µm.
Material examined: South Africa, E Transvaal, Mt. Sheba Nat. Res., 14–15.II.1995, S. Zoia, on posterior legs of Pachydesus rufipes (Boheman) (Carabidae, Trechini) (FI WR1997, holotype). Same data as the type, M. Zapparoli legit (FI WR1987 and WR 2000, paratypes); same data as the type, A. Vigna Taglianti legit, FI WR1998 and WR1999, paratypes).
Notes: The species is more similar to Rhachomyces cruralis and R. moreti W. Rossi et Proaño, parasitic on Trechisibus calathiformis Deuve from Ecuador. The latter fungus, however, has an oblong perithecium, the axis of the receptacle consists of 16–18 cells, and the appendages are paler and slenderer (Rossi and Proaño Castro 2009).
Rhachomyces hyperommae W. Rossi & M. Leonardi, sp. nov.
Index Fungorum number: IF559509; Facesoffungi number: FoF13386; Fig. 63
Etymology: Named after the host insect genus.
Holotype: CAMB WR2331a
Axis of the receptacle composed of 12–17 cells very different in size, shape, and color: the basal and the suprabasal are blackened, narrow, and elongate; the following 2 or 3 are relatively small, dark and isodiametric; the others gradually broader and paler from below upwards. Appendages short, stiff, one-sided, projected obliquely upwards, consisting of 4 cells, of which the lower 3 are dark brown while the upper has a paler and curved tip. Antheridial appendages similar to the sterile ones but shorter and paler, each bearing distally a brown, elongate antheridium tapering in a curved and truncate paler tip. Perithecium broadly fusiform, with the posterior side more convex, nearly hyaline or tinged with pale yellow, brownish yellow near the base in older specimens, the hyaline and conical tip ending in a blunt apex. Length from foot to perithecial apex 280–380 µm. Perithecium, including basal cells 110–145 × 35–42 µm. Antheridia 20–25 µm. Longest appendage 90 µm.
Material examined: Autralia, NSW Border Ranges N. P., Tweed Range Rd., 4.6 km SW of Bridle Ck. Rd., alt. 580 m, 4.II–9.IV.1993, M. Gray & G. Cassis, on a femur and the abdomen of Hyperomma sp. (Staphylinidae, Paederinae, Paederini, Cryptobiina), CAMB WR2331a, holotype; FI WR2331b isotype).
Notes: The new species seems to be allied to Rhachomyces arbusculus Thaxt., described on an unidentified rove-beetle from Liberia, West Africa (Thaxter 1896). The two parasites have similar appendages and are also somewhat similar in the general habitat. However, R. abusculus is distinctly more slender and more elongate, with the cells forming the receptacle more numerous (20–25) and not strongly different from each other, and with a much narrower perithecium suffused with brown at the apex.
Rhachomyces magrinii W. Rossi & M. Leonardi, sp. nov.
Index Fungorum number: IF559510; Facesoffungi number: FoF13387; Fig. 64
Etymology: Named after the entomologist Paolo Magrini, who supplied us with the material utilized for the description of the new species.
Holotype: FI WR4048
Axis of the receptacle from almost straight to distinctly curved or slightly sigmoid, consisting of (14)18–29 cells; basal and suprabasal cells slender, elongate and dark brown colored, the others gradually larger and paler. Appendages occurring in the lower part of the thallus are slender, consisting of 5–6 brownish, elongate cells; these appendages are visible only on young thalli, but are broken off in very early stages of development. The upper and more lasting appendages are thicker, generally consisting of 5 relatively short, subequal cells, the series ending with a 6th cell distinctly longer and much paler, with an almost hyaline tip. Antheridial appendages consist of a single, pale brown cell bearing apically a hyaline antheridium with a tapering and distinctly curved efferent neck. Perithecium subsessile, pale grayish brown, more or less bent as to the axis of the receptacle, symmetrical or slightly asymmetrical, about three times longer than broad, slightly more inflated below, the truncate-conical and paler tip ending in a broad and blunt apex. Length from foot to perithecial apex 525–950 µm. Perithecium 135–180(200) × 45–60(70) µm. Antheridial appendages 40–45 µm. Longest sterile appendages 150 µm.
Material examined: Mexico, Querétaro, Pinal de Amoles, Ojo de Agua, 9.III.2011, G. Trezzi, on Mexaphaenops elegans Barr (Carabidae, Trechini) (FI WR4048, holotype; FI WR4049, WR4488, paratype).
Notes: The only previously described species in Rhachomyces on a cave-dwelling Trechini from Central America is R. quetzalcoatl Balazuc, occurring on Paratrechus spp. from Mexico and Guatemala. The two species of fungi share the absence of dark pigmentation on the perithecial tip and the structure of the upper appendages, but differ greatly in other characteristics, as the much shorter receptacle of R. quetzalcoatl, consisting of dozens of cells, and its more inflated perithecium (Rossi and Cesari-Rossi 1977, Fig. 63).
Rhachomyces platyprosophi W. Rossi & M. Leonardi, sp. nov.
Index Fungorum number: IF559511; Facesoffungi number: FoF13388; Fig. 65
Etymology: Named after the host insect genus.
Holotype: FI WR3973.
Axis of the receptacle from almost straight to variably curved or sigmoid, consisting of 15–22 brownish cells gradually enlarging upwards and separated by oblique septa. Appendages spreading, nearly opaque except for the gradually paler and curved tip, longer and more numerous in the upper portion of the receptacle, reaching and sometimes exceeding the perithecial apex. Antheridial appendages relatively numerous, chestnut brown colored, consisting of a slender and elongate cell followed by a very slender antheridium with a paler and sigmoid tip. Perithecium long and slender, subsessile, oblong, light brown colored, the tip gradually tapering, hardly distinguished except for the darker color, the apex hyaline and subtruncate. Length from foot to perithecial apex 500–830 µm. Perithecium 190–290 × 50 µm. Antheridial appendages 50–65 µm. Longest sterile appendage 520 µm.
Material examined: Indonesia, Sumatra, Palembang, s. d., s. c. (from the collection of A. Fauvel in the Institut Royal des Sciences Naturelles, Bruxelles), on abdomen and legs of Platyprosopus indicus Motschulski (Staphylinidae, Staphylininae, Platyprosopini) (FI WR3973a, holotype; FI WR3973b and WR3973c isotypes).
Notes: Due to the large dimensions and the oblong perithecium, the new species can be compared with Rhachomyces carbonii W. Rossi & M. Leonardi, recently described on a rove beetle from Sierra Leone, which however bears a slender and much darker receptacle, shorter and slender appendages and has perithecium with spirally twisted wall cells with an abruptly distinguished tip (Rossi and Leonardi 2018).
Class Lecanoromycetes O.E. Erikss. & Winka
Subclass Lecanoromycetidae P.M. Kirk et al.
Caliciales Bessey.
Notes: Caliciales is an order of lichenized fungi, including mostly crustose, but also foliose forms (Lücking et al. 2016)
Caliciaceae Chevall. [as 'Calicineae'], Fl. gén. env. Paris (Paris) 1: 314 (1826)
Notes: Caliciaceae is a family of lichenized fungi, including mostly crustose, but also foliose forms (Lücking et al. 2016)
Buellia De Not., G. bot. ital. 2(1.1): 195 (1846)
Notes: Buellia is a large, heterogeneous and probably a polyphyletic genus. Some species groups are relatively well-defined and may warrant formal recognition. This includes the Buellia subalbula (Nyl.) Müll. Arg. aggregate (Bungartz et al. 2011). Below we describe a new species that belongs to this group.
Buellia pruinocalcarea Aptroot, M.F. Souza & Spielmann, sp. nov.
Index Fungorum number: IF900068; Facesoffungi number: FOF13389; Fig. 66
Saxicolous Buellia on limestone with thallus thick, white, apothecia flush with the thallus, densely white pruinose, and ascospores 12–14 × 6–7 µm.
Holotype: Aptroot 77815.
Etymology: Named after the white pruina and the calcareous habitat.
Sexual morph: Thallus crustose, covering areas up to 20 cm diam., marginal 3 mm continuous, remaining parts rather regularly cracked with areoles flat, c. 0.5 mm diam., not corticate, dull, almost pure white, very regularly c. 0.3 mm thick, not surrounded by a prothallus, but margin thinner though at least 0.1 mm thick. Isidia and soredia absent. Ascomata numerous, singly or aggregated, partly in concentrical zones (especially the outer rim of apothecia at 3 mm from the margin), immersed, flush with the thallus, rather uniformly 0.3–0.5 mm diam., sparse, solitary, disc flat, grey, margin barely raised, c. 0.05 mm thick, white, both disc and margin densely white pruinose. Excipulum uniformly dark brown in section. Epihymenium a layer of c. 15 µm high of brown paraphysal tips overlain with an c. 25 µm high epipsamma composed of many grey crystals that do not dissolve in K (calcium oxalate). Hymenium 70–90 µm high, hyaline, not inspersed, amyloid, paraphyses 1–1.5 µm wide, with dark brown upper. Hypothecium dark brown, in the central part up to 75 µm high, towards the margin tapering to c. 25 µm high. Ascospores 8/ascus, brown, 1-septate, ellipsoid, 12–14 × 6–7 µm. Asexual morph: not observed.
Chemistry: Thallus and apothecia UV + patchily salmon-orange, especially in the submarginal zone, C–, P–, K–. TLC: nil.
Ecology and distribution: On exposed limestone in Atlantic rain forest biome; only known from Brazil.
Material examined: Brazil, Mato Grosso do Sul: Serra da Bodoquena, Bodoquena, Dente de Cão, summit, alt. 450 m, 20° 47ʹ 05″ S, 56° 45ʹ 03″ W, on exposed limestone in Atlantic rain forest biome, 7 November 2018, Aptroot 77815 (holotype, CGMC).
GenBank number: MW322683 (ITS).
Notes: This species is not keyed out in Malme (1912). It shows similarities with species of the Buellia subalbula (Nyl.) Müll. Arg. aggregate (Bungartz et al. 2011) and seems most similar to Buellia amabilis de Lesd. (see Bungartz and Nash 2004), which differs by the ornamented ascospores and the apothecia that become more convex, and the absence of UV luminescence. Phylogenetically, it clusters deep inside Buellia De Not. in the current sense (Fig. 66). Sequences of other species of the B. subalbula aggregate are not available.
As part of a continuous effort to explore lichenologically relatively unidentified regions in Brazil, we investigated the microlichens on an isolated limestone outcrop in a tropical south-western inland region, viz. the Dente de Cão in the Parque Nacional da Serra da Bodoquena in the state of Mato Grosso do Sul, close to the borders with Paraguay and Bolivia. This range of hills is the only larger forested area still in existence in this state. Many microlichens were recently reported from the area (Aptroot and Spielmann 2020). This area is close to the venue of IAL9, the nearby town of Bonito.
The natural vegetation of the Serra da Bodoquena is the Atlantic rain forest, a biome that stretches all along the coast from north-eastern to south-eastern Brazil. In fact, it is the most western patch of Atlantic rainforest in existence, and as such unique. Exposed limestone outcrops occur in various places in the tropics, but their extent is often limited and they tend to be soon grown over by vegetation. The Dente de Cão is formed of white Precambrian (neoproterozoic, see Boggiani 1997) limestone known as the Bocaiana formation, and reaches 450 m alt. It weathers into karst and the name of the rock outcrop is after the sharp tooth-like rock points. Somewhat to our surprise, the exposed limestone outcrop, although only scarcely colonized by fanerogams, was not completely covered by lichens. Cyanobacteria were more abundant. The most common lichens were the species of Collemataceae and Lichinaceae (Fig. 67).
Lecanorales Nannf.
Notes: Lecanorales is the largest order of lichenized fungi, one of the largest containing crustose lichens and the largest containing foliose lichens (Lücking et al. 2016).
Lecanoraceae Körb. [as 'Lecanoreae'], Syst. lich. germ. (Breslau): 104 (1855).
Notes: Lecanoraceae is a family of lichenized fungi, one of the largest containing crustose lichens (Lücking et al. 2016).
Lecanora Ach., in Luyken, Tent. Hist. Lich.: 90 (1809).
Notes: Lecanora is a large, heterogeneous and possibly paraphyletic genus. Some species of this group are well-defined. Below we describe a new species in the somewhat aberrant Lecanora marginata (Schaer.) Hertel & Rambold group (Rambold 1989).
Lecanora immersocalcarea Aptroot, M.F. Souza & Spielmann, sp. nov.
Index Fungorum number: IF900069; Facesoffungi:FOF13390; Fig. 68
Saxicolous Lecanora on limestone with thallus 0.5–0.8(-2.0) mm thick, very pale ochraceous white, apothecia immersed in the thallus, black, immature.
Etymology: Named for the immersed apothecia and the calcareous habitat.
Holotype: Aptroot 77822.
Thallus crustose, superficial, covering areas up to 10 cm diam., dull, cretaceous, very pale ochraceous white, regularly cracked with the areoles angular, slightly convex and c. 0.5–0.9 mm diam., c. 0.5–0.8 mm thick but in some places with lobate superficial outgrowths of up to 2 mm thick, not surrounded by a prothallus, but margin thick and raised, sharply delimited, not lobed or fissured. Isidia and soredia absent. Ascomata immature apothecia, several per areole, flush with the thallus, rounded, 0.2–0.4 mm diam.; disc black, margin thin, black. Epihymenium grey, without crystals. Excipulum without crystals. Hypothecium hyaline. Mature ascospores not observed. Pycnidia not observed.
Chemistry: Thallus UV–, C–, P + yellow, K + yellow. TLC: atranorin.
Distribution: On exposed limestone outcrop in Atlantic rain forest biome; only known from Brazil.
Material examined: Brazil. Mato Grosso do Sul: Serra da Bodoquena, Bodoquena, Dente de Cão, summit, alt. 450 m, 20° 47ʹ 05″ S, 56° 45ʹ 03″ W, on exposed limestone in an Atlantic rain forest biome, 7 November 2018, Aptroot 77822 (holotype, CGMC).
GenBank number: MW322682 (ITS)
Notes: This species is locally abundant. Fully fertile material was not found, but the type specimen was sequenced and clustered inside Lecanora Ach. in the current sense. Morphologically it would belong to the Lecanora marginata (Schaer.) Hertel & Rambold group, in which indeed calciferous species or at least specimens are known. Only one described species seems close, however, viz. Lecanora oreinodes (Körb.) Hertel & Rambold (Rambold 1989), which differs by the flatter, flush areoles and the somewhat fractured/lobate thallus margin, and which is not known to occur on pure limestone. Phylogenetically, it clusters deep inside Lecanora, where it clusters with several species with usnic acid instead of atranorin, but with low support (Fig. 69). Sequences of other species of the L. marginata group are not available. This species is described from the same locality as Buellia pruinocalcarea (for details see under Buellia pruinocalcarea).
Teloschistales D. Hawksw. & O.E. Erikss.
Notes: Teloschistales is a large order of lichenized fungi, one of the largest containing crustose lichens (Arup et al. 2013).
Teloschistaceae Zahlbr. [as 'Theloschistaceae'], in Engler, Syllabus, Edn 2 (Berlin): 45 (1898).
Notes: Teloschistaceae is a family of lichenized fungi, one of the largest containing crustose lichens. Most species are generally still treated under the genus Caloplaca Th. Fr. (Schumm and Aptroot 2019).
Wetmoreana Arup, Søchting & Frödén, in Arup, Søchting & Frödén, Nordic Jl Bot. 31(1): 66 (2013)
Notes: Wetmoreana is a recently split genus in Teloschistaceae (Arup et al. 2013). At the moment, three to five species are recognized in this genus, depending on whether or not Fulgogassparrea S.Y. Kondr., N.-H. Jeong, Kärnefelt, Elix, A. Thell & Hur (Kondratyuk et al. 2013) is recognized as a separate genus.
Wetmoreana blastidiocalcarea Aptroot, M.F. Souza & Spielmann sp. nov.
Index Fungorum number: IF900070; Facesoffungi number: FOF13391; Fig. 70
Saxicolous Wetmoreana on limestone with thallus thick, yellow-orange, radially lobate, central part of the thallus areolate, covered by c. 0.05 mm diam, semiglobose corticate bulbs of thallus color that might serve as blastidia.
Etymology: Named after the calcareous and the blastidious habitat.
Holotype: Aptroot 77806.
Thallus placodioid, up to 2 cm diam., corticate, dull, yellow-orange, white pruinose on the marginal lobes, up to 0.3 mm thick. The central part of the thallus areolate, covered by c. 0.05 mm diam, semiglobose corticate bulbs of thallus colour that might serve as (and would in former species of Fulgensia usually being called) blastidia, sometimes partly dissected into secondary lobes resembling the marginal lobes. Marginal lobes much radially divided into less than 0.1 mm wide lobuli, gradually thinning towards the margin. Isidia and soredia absent. Ascomata and pycnidia not observed.
Chemistry: Thallus and apothecia UV + red, C−, P−, K+ crimson. TLC: anthraquinones.
Distribution: On exposed limestone in Atlantic rain forest biome; only known from Brazil.
Material examined: Brazil. Mato Grosso do Sul: Serra da Bodoquena, Bodoquena, Dente de Cão, summit, alt. 450 m, 20° 47ʹ 05″ S, 56° 45ʹ 03″ W, on exposed limestone in Atlantic rain forest biome, 7 November 2018, Aptroot 77806 (holotype; CGMC).
GenBank number: MW322681 (ITS).
Notes: Morphologically, this species shows similarities with several genera in the Teloschistaceae. The corticated granules in the central part of the thallus resemble the blastidia known from several species of Fulgensia A. Massal. & De Not. In this sense, it was used for most of the past century. Sequencing of the type showed that this species belongs to Wetmoreana. None of the species in this genus are blastidiate. Phylogenetically, it clusters deep inside Wetmoreana (Fig. 71). Note that Caloplaca brouardii de Lesd. is phylogenetically also a Wetmoreana (Wilk et al. in prep). This species is described from the same locality as Buellia pruinocalcarea (for details see under that species).
Class Leotiomycetes O.E. Erikss. & Winka
Phacidiales C.E. Bessey
Phacidiales was placed in Leotiomycetes by Bessey (1907). Quijada et al. (2018) included three families in Phacidiale (viz. Helicogoniaceae, Phacidiaceae, Tympanidaceae) and one informal taxonomic lineage with 29 genera. Wijayawardene et al. (2022) accepted two families viz. Helicogoniaceae and Phacidiaceae in this order and accepted Tympanidaceae in Leotiales.
Phacidiaceae Fr. [as 'Phacidiacei'], Summa veg. Scand., Sectio Post. (Stockholm): 367 (1849).
Phacidiaceae was introduced by Fries (1849) and typified by Phacidium (Crous et al. 2014). Six genera (Allantophomopsiella, Allantophomopsis, Bulgaria, Darkera, Phacidium and Potebniamyces) were included in Phacidiaceae based on DNA sequence data (Crous et al. 2014; Li et al. 2020). Wijayawardene et al. (2022) accepted nine genera in this family.
Phacidium Fr., Observ. mycol. (Havniae) 1: 167 (1815).
The generic name Phacidium was introduced by Fries (1815) with Phacidium lacerum as the type species. Phacidium species are widely distributed throughout the globe and has been reported as pathogens on dead leaf tips and as saprobic on dead leaves of several host families (Crous et al. 2014; Li et al. 2020). Both asexual morph and sexual morph of this genus are known (Li et al. 2020). There are 43 taxa are listed in Species Fungorum (2022a, b) (http://www.speciesfungorum.org/Names/Names.asp). However, it is a poorly studied genus due to the lack of molecular data. Here we introduce a new species of Phacidium from decaying wood in terrestrial habitats in China.

Material examined: China, Yunnan Province, Diqing Autonomous Prefecture, Xianggelila (27.28′ 8° N, 99.50′ 45° E), 2958 m, on dead wood of Rosa sp. (Rosaceae), 30 August 2020, Guang-Cong Ren, W06 (KUN-HKAS 112899, holotype), ex-type living culture KUMCC 20-0168.
GenBank numbers: ON490924 (LSU), ON490925(ITS), ON506923(tef1), ON506922 (rpb2)
Notes: Phacidium chinense is introduced as a new species based on its distinct morphology, which is supported by phylogenetic analyses. In the phylogenetic analyses, P. chinense is distinct from extant species in Phacidium and formed a sister clade to Phacidium calderae, however, there is no bootstrap support (Fig. 73). Phacidium chinense is different to P. calderae in having oblong conidia and phialidic, cylindrical conidiogenous cells, while P. calderae in having subcylindrical conidia with apical mucoid appendage and proliferating with periclinal thickening conidiogenous cells (Crous et al. 2014).

Subclass Diaporthomycetidae Senan., Maharachch. & K.D. Hyde
Diaporthales Nannf
Diaporthales containing numerous important endophytic, saprobic and phytopathogenic ascomycetous families. Even though, families, and genera in this order showed high distinct morphological diversity, taxonomic placements are still problematic (Senanayake et al. 2017).
Diaporthales introduced by Nannfeldt (1932), to accommodate Höhnel’s Eu-Diaportheen and Valseen taxa (Senanayake et al. 2018) and currently 30 families are in this order named: Apiosporopsidaceae, Apoharknessiaceae, Asterosporiaceae, Auratiopycnidiellaceae, Coryneaceae, Cryphonectriaceae, Cytosporaceae, Diaporthaceae, Diaporthosporellaceae, Diaporthostomataceae, Dwiroopaceae, Erythrogloeaceae, Gnomoniaceae, Harknessiaceae, Juglanconidaceae, Lamproconiaceae, Macrohilaceae, Melanconidaceae, Melanconiellaceae, Neomelanconiellaceae, Phaeoappendicosporaceae, Phaeochorellaceae, Prosopidicolaceae, Pseudomelanconidaceae, Pseudoplagiostomataceae, Schizoparmaceae, Stilbosporaceae, Sydowiellaceae, Synnemasporellaceae and Tubakiaceae (Hyde et al. 2020a, b, c; Wijayawardena et al. 2022).
Diaporthaceae Höhn. ex Wehm., Am. J. Bot. 13: 638 (1926)
Diaporthaceae was introduced and placed in Diaporthales by von Höhnel (1917). The members of Diaporthaceae are known to be endophytic, pathogenic and saprobic. Species in Diaporthaceae mostly inhabit in terrestrial hosts and rarely on aquatic hosts (Udayanga et al. 2011; Dissanayake et al. 2017; Senanayake et al. 2017). There are 15 genera accepted in Diaporthaceae, viz. Apioporthella, Apiosphaeria, Chaetoconis, Chiangraiomyces, Diaporthe, Hyaliappendispora, Leucodiaporthe, Massariothea, Mazzantia, Ophiodiaporthe, Paradiaporthe, Phaeocytostroma, Phaeodiaporthe, Pustulomyces, and Stenocarpella (Hyde et al. 2020a, b, c).
Diaporthe Nitschke, Fungi rhenani exsic., suppl., fasc. 5: no. 1988 (1867)
Diaporthe is the type genus of Diaporthaceae, and it was established by Nitschke (1867). Diaporthe species have been recorded as endophytes or saprobes on a wide range of host plants in different geographical areas (Udayanga et al. 2011; Dissanayake et al. 2017; Abeywickrama et al. 2020). Many economically significant crops are infected by pathogenic Diaporthe species leading to severe crop losses (Manawasinghe et al. 2019; Abeywickrama et al. 2020), with blights, fruit and root rots, cankers, diebacks, wilts and leaf spots (Manawasinghe et al. 2019; Abeywickrama et al. 2020). The genus contains 1152 epithets in Index Fungorum (assessed in 29.08.2022; Index Fungorum 2022a, b).

Culture characteristics: Colonies on PDA entirely white both on surface and reverse. Aerial mycelium cottony, colonies reaching 60 mm diam. after 7 days in room temperature.
Material examined: Italy, Province of Forlì-Cesena [FC], near Pianetto—Galeata, on dead and aerial branch of Ficus carica L. (Moraceae), 21 December 2018, E. Camporesi, IT 4192 (JZBH 320201), living culture JZB 320201.
Hosts: Wide host range, including Achillea, Ailanthus, Amorpha, Angelica, Arctium, Asparagus, Camellia, Castanea, Chenopodium, Citrus, Cupressus, Diospyros, Eucalyptus, Ficus carica Hemerocallis, Lunaria, Melilotus, Microcitrus, Persea, Platanus, Prunus, Rosa, Rubus, Vicia and Wisteria (Farr and Rossman 2022; this study).
Distribution: Wide geographical range, including in Chile, Greece, Iran, Italy, Malta, New Zealand, Portugal, Serbia, South Africa, Spain, Thailand, Turkey, Uruguay, US (Farr and Rossman 2022; this study).
GenBank numbers: OP002068 (ITS), OP837431(his), OP837429 (tub2)
Notes: Diaporthe foeniculina (JZB 320201) was recovered from a dead aerial branch of Ficus carica in Italy. Our strain shared similar morphology with the type strain of D. foeniculina (CBS 111553) which was introduced by Udayanga et al. (2014), with minor dimensional differences. Conidiomata of our strain (JZB 320201) are comparatively smaller than those of D. foeniculina (CBS 111553) (150–300 μm diam. vs 400– 700 µm diam.). Further we have observed smaller alpha conidia in our strain than CBS 111553 (5–7.5 × 1.5–3 µm vs 8.8 ± 0.3 × 2.4 ± 0.1 μm) (Udayanga et al. 2014). These morphological differences probably due to environmental factors and host variations. Phylogenetic analyses using combined ITS, cal, his, tef1, tub2 sequence data confirmed that our strain is D. foeniculina and it is clade with the strain MFLUCC 20-0151 with high statistical support (92/1.00) (Fig. 75). Comparisons of base pair differences for ITS, tub2 and his genes between our strain (JZB 320201) and the ex-epitype strain of D. foeniculina (CBS 111553) reveal less than 1% base pair differences in ITS and tub2 gene regions (ITS = 0.57%, tub2 = 0.97%). However, we observe 5.77% base pair difference in HIS gene (94.23% similarity). We were unable to obtain cal and tef1 sequence data for our strain, and we could not compare the base pair difference for them. Thus, based on the multi-gene phylogeny and morphology; this study presents the first report of D. foeniculina from a Ficus carica from Italy.

Conidiophores 4–7 × 4.1–7.3 μm ( = 4.4 × 6.3 μm, n = 30), ampulliform, straight to sinuous, unbranched, hyaline, smooth. Conidiogenous cells 7.8–13.8 × 1.4–2.7 μm ( = 10.9 × 2.1 μm, n = 30), phialidic, terminal, cylindrical, slightly tapering towards the apex. Alpha-conidia 5.1–7.5 × 1.2–3.4 μm ( = 6.1 × 2.6 μm, n = 20), aseptate, hyaline, smooth, ovate to ellipsoidal, guttulate. Beta-conidia 5.8–7.5 × 2.5–3.5 μm ( = 6.4 × 2.8 μm, n = 10), hyaline, filiform, hamate.
Cultural characteristics: On potato dextrose agar, the fungus initially produced white fluffy aerial hyphae, forming relatively dense concentric pattern colony, which subsequently exhibited light yellow pigmentation.

Notes: The symptoms were observed on stems of cowpea. Initial symptoms appeared as small lesions, more or less circular, later elongated, blackish-brown lesions, eventually pycnidia developed (Fig. 76). Stem girdling occurs and the shoot above the infected area wilts and dries up. Pathogenicity tests were conducted and proved to be pathogenic on healthy cowpea plants. Morphologically our strain shares similar morphology with the ex-type strain of D. longicolla (Fig. 77). In the multigene phylogenetic analyses, our strain clusters with D. longicolla with a high bootstrap support (Fig. 75). Previously, Phomopsis longicolla is known to be associated with cowpea seeds. However, no reports are available on the association of D. longicolla of cowpea in India. This is the first report of D. longicolla associated with cowpea from India.

Material examined: Italy, Province of Forlì-Cesena, Santa Sofia, on twigs of Fagus sylvatica L. (Fagaceae), 3 August 2015, E. Camporesi, IT2575 (MFLU 15-2604).
Host and distribution: Ostrya carpinifolia in China (Voglmayr et al. 2012; Fan et al. 2018), Europe and North America (Voglmayr et al. 2012), Fagus sylvatica in Italy (this study).
GenBank numbers: OM403250 (ITS), OM403249 (LSU)
Notes: The new strain shares a close phylogenetic affinity to Melanconiella meridionalis in our combined LSU, ITS, rpb2 and tef1 sequence data analyses (Fig. 81). This species was previously recorded from dead corticated twigs and branches of Ostrya carpinifolia (Betulaceae) from different localities i.e. Australia, Croatia, Greece, Italy and Slovenia (Voglmayr et al. 2012). Melanconiella meridionalis has not been reported from Fagaceae and here we provide the first association of sexual morph of species with Fagus sylvatica.
Pararamichloridiales Crous
Notes: Pararamichloridiales was introduced by Crous et al. (2017) to accommodate a monotypic family including two genera, namely Pararamichloridium and Woswasia. However, Woswasia (Woswasiaceae) was treated in Diaporthomycetidae families incertae sedis by Zhang et al. (2017) based on morphological and phylogenetical analyses. This result was supported by Hyde et al. (2020a, b, c). Divergence time estimates for Pararamichloridiales are crown age of 50.08 Mya and stem age of 101.46 Mya (Hyde et al. 2020a, b, c). The data of divergence time estimates for Pararamichloridiales is line with recommendations for ranking families.
Pararamichloridiaceae Crous, in Crous et al., Persoonia 39: 357 (2017)
Notes: Pararamichloridiaceae was introduced as a monotypic family by Crous et al. (2017) for Pararamichloridium Crous. However, Zhang et al. (2017) established a new family Woswasiaceae to accommodate Cyanoannulus and Xylomelasma while Woswasia was placed in Diaporthomycetidae families incertae sedis based on its close phylogenetic affinity, and this was conferred in later studies (Hyde et al. 2020a, b, c; Wijayawardene et al. 2020). Members of Pararamichloridiaceae are pathogenic on plant leaves (Crous et al. 2017, 2018).
Pararamichloridium Crous, in Crous et al., Persoonia 39: 357 (2017)
Notes: Pararamichloridium, the type genus of Pararamichloridiaceae, was established by Crous et al. (2017) to accommodate two species, P. livistonae Crous (as the type species) and P. verrucosum (V. Rao & de Hoog) Crous. Crous et al. (2018) introduced the third species of Pararamichloridium based on blast search and phylogenetic analysis. In this study, morphological characteristics and multi-gene phylogenetic analysis of a combined LSU and ITS sequence data reveals the fourth new species of Pararamichloridium from dead wood collected in freshwater from China (Figs. 82, 83).
Pararamichloridium aquisubtropicum J.Y. Zhang, Y.Z. Lu & K.D. Hyde, sp. nov.
Index Fungorum number: IF559507; Facesoffungi number: FoF10677; Fig. 82
Etymology: Referring to the aquatic habitat and collecting site in subtropical country, China
Holotype: GZAAS 21–0382
Saprobic on submerged decaying wood. Asexual morph: Colonies on natural substrate superficial, brown, smooth, solitary. Mycelium partly immersed, consisting of branched, smooth, brown hyphae. Conidiophores 119–202 × 2.6–4.7 μm ( = 161.4 × 3.6 μm, n = 24), macronematous, mononematous, sucylindrical, straight, unbranched, brown, smooth, 6–9-septate.

Material examined: China, Guizhou Province, Xishui County, on decaying wood submerged in a freshwater stream, 16 September 2020, Jian Ma, XY2(GZAAS 21–0382, holotype); ex–type living culture, GZCC 21–0668.
GenBank numbers: OM339437 (ITS), OM339434 (LSU).
Notes: The phylogenetic analysis (Fig. 83) revealed that Pararamichloridium aquisubtropicum forms distinct lineage belonging to Pararamichloridium, where it is sister to P. caricicola with 100% BS, 1.00 BYPP, high support. Pararamichloridium caricicola is the closest species based on BLASTn result of LSU and ITS region with 99.55% and 96.11% similarity, respectively. Pararamichloridium caricicola is found in culture, while our new collection was saprobic on submerged decaying wood. Pararamichloridium aquisubtropicum shares the same morphology with P. caricicola in having brown, septate, smooth conidiophores integrated, terminal, subcylindrical conidiogenous cells and ellipsoid, pale brown aseptate, conidia. However, P. aquisubtropicum differs from P. caricicola by it darker and longer (119–202 × 2.5–4.7 μm vs 35–100 × 2.5–3 μm) conidiophores. Thus, P. aquisubtropicum is introduced here as a distinct novel species based on its distinct morphological features and phylogenetic placement.
Distoseptisporales Z.L. Luo, K.D. Hyde & H.Y. Su Fungal Diversity 99: 482 (2019).
Distoseptisporaceae was established by Su et al. (2016) with a single genus, Distoseptispora. Based on morphology and phylogenetic analysis of combined LSU, SSU, rpb2, and tef1 sequence data, Luo et al. (2019) established a new order, Distoseptisporales. Previously, the order Distoseptisporales was classified under the class Sordariomycetes, subclass Diaporthomycetidae. Aquapteridospora was described by Yang et al. (2015) and assigned to the Diaporthomycetidae genus incertae sedis. Later, Dong et al. (2021) performed a molecular phylogeny study using combined LSU, ITS, tef1, and rpb2 sequence data and established a new family, Aquapteridosporaceae K.D. Hyde & Hongsanan, to accommodate a single genus, Aquapteridospora, and placed Aquapteridosporaceae in the order Distoseptisporales. Distoseptisporales currently consists of two families (Aquapteridosporaceae and Distoseptisporaceae), with Distoseptisporaceae serving as the type family.
Distoseptisporaceae K.D. Hyde & McKenzie, Fungal Diversity 80: 402 (2016)
Su et al. (2016) identified two Sporidesmium-like taxa with distinct morphology and phylogenetic relationships. They can be distinguished from Sporidesmiaceae based on strong molecular evidence and morphological investigation. As a result, the family Distoseptisporaceae was established to include Sporidesmium-like species under the type genus Distoseptispora. In the previous study, there was no sexual morph known for this family (Su et al. 2016; Yang et al. 2018; Hyde et al. 2019, 2020a, b, c, 2021; Luo et al. 2019; Sun et al. 2020a, b). Recently, Yang et al. (2021) proposed a sexual morph of Distoseptispora and this is the first time that the sexual morph of Distoseptispora has been found.
Distoseptispora K.D. Hyde, McKenzie, Maharachch. Fungal Diversity 80:375–409 (2016)
Su et al. (2016) defined Distoseptispora as a genus with Distoseptispora fluminicola as the type species. Yang et al. (2018) updated the Distoseptispora genus description. In addition, the sexual morph of this species is unidentified in the previous study (Su et al. 2016; Yang et al. 2018; Hyde et al. 2019, 2020a, b, c; Luo et al. 2019; Sun et al. 2020a, b). There is only one species of sexual morph described in Distoseptispora (Yang et al. 2021). The sexual morph is characterized by being solitary or gregarious, immersed to semi-immersed, perithecial, subglobose to ellipsoidal, ostiolate, dark brown ascomata with a short neck and hyaline, 0–3-septate, ascospores with a mucilaginous sheath (Yang et al. 2021). The asexual morph is distinguished by hyphomycetous, macronematous conidiophores, percurrent, elongate conidiogenous cells, olivaceous, brown, yellowish, or reddish brown, euseptate or distoseptate conidia, and rarely muriform conidia. (Su et al. 2016; Xia et al. 2017; Luo et al. 2018a, b; Tibpromma et al. 2018; Yang et al. 2018; Hyde et al. 2020a, b, c). The genus now has 46 recognized species, 14 of which are from terrestrial habitats and 32 from freshwater habitats (Su et al. 2016; Hyde et al. 2016, 2019, 2020, 2021; Xia et al. 2017; Yang et al. 2015, 2018; Luo et al. 2018a, b, 2019; Monkai et al. 2020; Song et al. 2020; Sun et al. 2020a, b; Li et al. 2021a, b; Yang et al. 2021, Hyde et al. 2021, Index Fungorum 2022a, b). Distoseptispora hyalina J. Yang and K.D. Hyde is the first sexual morph reported in the genus based on molecular DNA data (Yang et al. 2021).
Distoseptispora bambusicola X. Tang, Jayaward, J.C Kang & K.D. Hyde sp. nov.
Index Fungorum number: IF558533; Facesoffungi number: FoF09940; Fig. 84
Etymology: Named after the host bamboo from which the holotype was found.
Holotypus: GZAAS21-0379.
Saprobic on decaying stems of bamboo submerged in a freshwater stream habitat. Sexual morph: Not observed. Asexual morph: Colonies effuse, scattered, hairy, brown to dark brown. Mycelium mostly immersed, composed of branched, septate, brown, smooth hyphae. Conidiophores macronematous, mononematous, pale brown to brown, solitary, 4–7-septate, erect, straight or flexuous, unbranched, slightly constricted at septa, smooth, cylindrical, 64–116 μm × 4–7 μm ( = 90.5 × 5.5 μm, n = 30), truncate at the apex. Conidiogenous cells holoblastic, monoblastic, integrated, terminal, determinate, brown, cylindrical. Conidia 72–193 μm × 7.5–14.5 μm ( = 126 × 14 μm, n = 30) acrogenous, solitary, obclavate or lanceolate, rostrate, straight or slightly curved, multi-distoseptate, up to 16-distoseptate, guttulate, pale brown, tapering towards the rounded apex, truncate at the base, slightly constricted at septa, smooth-walled, rounded at apex, with a truncate base and faintly to heavily pigmented scar.
Culture characters: Colony grown on PDA in room temperature, circular, fluffy, white, dense in the center, but sparse, slightly olivaceous in the outside. In reverse, deeply olivaceous in the center, slightly yellow at the entire margin. Refer to the pigment produced on PDA and OA, purpure.
Material examined: China, Guizhou Province, Zunyi City, on decaying stems of bamboo submerged in a freshwater stream, 21 February 2021, Xia Tang, K1 (GZAAS21-0379, holotype), ex-type living culture, GZCC21-0667.
GenBank numbers: MZ474873 (ITS), MZ474872 (LSU), MZ474866 (SSU), OM272845 (tef1).
Notes: Distoseptispora bambusicola clustered with D. hydei, D. obpyriformis, and D. rostrata with a 100%ML, 99%MP and 1.00 BYPP support. According to the morphological comparisons (Fig. 85), our novel species can be distinguished from closely related species. Distoseptispora bambusicola differs from D. rostrata by its smaller conidiophores (64–116 μm × 4–7 μm vs 82–126 μm × 5–7 μm), larger conidia (72–193 μm × 7.5–14.5 μm vs 115–155 μm × 9–11 μm) and less distosepta (16-distosepta vs 23-distosepta). Distoseptispora bambusicola shares similar morphological characteristics with D. obpyriformis in the size, shape, color of conidiophores, but differ in conidial size (72–193 μm × 7.5–14.5 μm vs 53–71 μm × 12–16 μm). Distoseptispora bambusicola differs from D. obpyriformis by having obclavate or lanceolate, longer conidia. Distoseptispora bambusicola can be distinct from Distoseptispora hydei by conidal shape and size (72–193 μm × 7.5–14.5 μm vs 32–58 μm × 10–15 μm; obclavate or lanceolate vs obpyriform to fusiform). Distoseptispora hydei is characterized with a gelatinous sheath around the tip of conidia, while D. bambusicola lacks this character. According to the comparisons of our novel species with other phylogenetically related taxa based on a pairwise nucleotide comparison of ITS (Jeewon and Hyde 2016), D. bambusicola differs from D. rostrata in 13/ 517 bp (2.5%), D. hydei in 8/ 395 bp (2.0%) and differs from D. obpyriformis in 25/571 bp (4.0%). Pairwise nucleotide comparison of LSU and tef1 also showed that D. bambusicola differs from D. rostrata in 10/ 826 bp (1.2%) for LSU and 42/ 857 bp (4.9%) for tef1, differs from D. hydei in 7/ 848 bp (0.8%) for LSU, and differs from D. obpyriformis in 6/ 790 bp (0.7%) for LSU and 40/ 838 bp (4.7%) for tef1. Thus, we consider D. bambusicola as a novel species in Distoseptispora.
Glomerellales Chadef. ex Réblová et al.
Réblová et al. (2011) validated Glomerellales to accommodate the families Australiascaceae, Glomerellaceae and Reticulascaceae. Maharachchikumbura et al. (2016) and Tibpromma et al. (2018) added Plectosphaerellaceae and Malaysiascaceae to this order.
Glomerellaceae Locq. ex Seifert & W. Gams, in Zhang et al., Mycologia 98(6): 1083 (2007) [2006].
The monotypic family is characterised by a Colletotrichum asexual morph and a Glomerella sexual morph (Hyde et al. 2020a, b, c).
Colletotrichum Corda, in Sturm, Deutschl. Fl., 3 Abt. (Pilze Deutschl.) 3(12): 41 (1831).
Colletotrichum comprises important plant pathogens, endophytes and saprobes as well as human and animal pathogens (Cannon et al. 2012; Jayawardena et al. 2021a; Talhinhas and Baroncelli 2021). Bhunjun et al. (2021) demonstrated that coalescent approaches and multi-locus phylogeny are vital in establishing species boundaries in Colletotrichum. Liu et al. (2022) accepted 280 species in 16 species complexes and 15 singleton species and established a genome tree comprising 94 species. Further 13 species were added by Alizadeh et al. (2022), Hassan et al. (2022) and Zheng et al. (2022).

Material examined: Thailand, Chiang Mai Province, Omkoi, on leaf spots of Shorea siamensis (Dipterocarpaceae), 15 October 2019, D. Gomdola, MFLU22-0148; living culture MFLUCC 22-0086.
Known host and distribution: Aeschynomene virginica (USA), Manihot esculenta (Thailand), Myrciaria dubia (Brazil), Platostoma palustre (Taiwan), Shorea siamensis (Thailand, this study), Theobroma cacao (Brazil) (Farr and Rossman 2022).
GenBank numbers: OP278978 (ITS), OQ053325 (gapdh)
Notes: Weir et al. (2012) introduced C. aeschynomenes from a stem lesion of Aeschynomene virginica. Colletotrichum aeschynomenes is a common phytopathogen known to cause anthracnose in leaves. Listed chronologically, the pathogen has been found to infect cassava in central Thailand (Sangpueak et al. 2018), and cause anthracnose on Theobroma cacao in Brazil (Nascimento et al. 2019), Myrciaria dubia in Brazil (Matos et al. 2020) and Ixora coccinea in China (Li et al. 2021a, b). Herein, C. aeschynomenes is associated with leaf spots of Shorea siamensis. To delineate C. aeschynomenes from C. fructicola, tub2 or gapdh gene regions are required (Weir et al. 2012). Phylogenetic analyses based on the concatenated ITS and gapdh sequence data depict our isolate as C. aeschynomenes. The latter is located in the C. gloeosporioides complex and clusters with the ex-type strain (ICMP 17673) with 71% MP, 84% ML and 0.91 BYPP (Fig. 87). We report our collection as a new host of C. aeschynomenes on living leaves of Shorea siamensis.

Ninh Bình Province, Cúc Phương National Park, rain forest, from leaf spots of Xanthophyllum sylvestre (Polygalaceae), 6 December 2012, Ulrike Damm, living culture CBS 137338.
GenBank numbers: CBS 134419—MZ444580 (ITS), MZ444582 (tub2), MZ444584 (gapdh), MZ444586 (act), MZ444588 (chs-1), MZ444590 (his3).

Notes: Colletotrichum flexuosum was isolated from leaves of Xanthophyllum sylvestre, a tree species native to Laos, Thailand and Vietnam (http://www.plantsoftheworldonline.org). Few fungi were previously reported from Xanthophyllum, including an unidentified Colletotrichum species on X. octandrum in Australia (Simmonds 1966; Farr and Rossman 2022). No Colletotrichum species was previously described or reported from X. sylvestre.
Based on blastn searches and sequence comparisons on NCBI GenBank, the closest neighbour of the strains from Xanthophyllum is C. vietnamense, belonging to the C. gigasporum complex. The ITS, tub2, gapdh, act, chs-1 and his3 sequences of this species were 80, 97, 91, 98, 98 and 96% identical (105, 23, 9, 4, 4and 15 nucleotides difference) with those of the ex-holotype strain of C. vietnamense (Liu et al. 2014). No strain was more than 82% identical with its ITS sequences. The closest match with the act sequences was Colletotrichum sp. gnqczg15 (KC293585, F. Huang, unpubl. study) with two nucleotides difference. In a phylogeny inferred from concatenated ITS, tub2, gapdh, act, chs-1 and his3 sequences of the C. gigasporum species complex (Fig. 89), the two strains formed a well-supported (BS 100%, BYPP 1) sister clade to C. vietnamense and a clade formed by two recently described species, C. subvariabile and C. variabile (Liu et al. 2022). Colletotrichum flexuosum can be identified with all loci included.
The species from Xanthophyllum is morphologically different from all previously described species of the C. gigasporum complex. Its conidia are shorter than those of C. gigasporum (22–32 × 6–9 μm on PDA), C. magnisporum (av. 34.3 × 9.7 μm on SNA, av. 33.8 × 9.9 μm on Anthriscus stem), C. serranegrense (24–37 × 7–9 μm on MEA) and C. vietnamense (av. 31.2 × 9.6 μm on SNA, av. 32.3 × 9.5 μm on Anthriscus stem) and larger than those of C. jishouense (av. 10.8 × 3.7 μm on PDA). In contrast to C. arxii, C. jishouense, C. pseudomajus, C. radicis and C. vietnamense, neither curved nor clavate conidia were formed, while conidia with membranous appendages and distinctly flexuous setae as formed by C. flexuosum were previously not observed in the C. gigasporum complex (Rakotoniriana et al. 2013; Liu et al. 2014, 2022; Silva et al. 2018; Zhou et al. 2019). Conidiogenous cells with a distinct periclinal thickening are typical for species of the C. boninense complex; within the C. gigasporum complex this was previously only observed with C. zhaoqingense (Liu et al. 2022). However, in contrast to C. zhaoqingense, conidial bases of C. flexuosum sometimes end with a membranous appendage, while most species of the C. boninense and the C. dracaenophilum complexes develop a prominent scar (Damm et al. 2012, 2019; Liu et al. 2022).

Notes: The species of the C. gloeosporioides species complex are mainly known as plant pathogens (Weir et al. 2012; Jayawardena et al. 2016, 2018, 2021a, b; Bhunjun et al. 2021), some species are also as endophytes or as saprobes (Jayawardena et al. 2021a, b). Strain MFLUCC 18-1182 belongs to the Colletotrichum gloeosporioides species complex and clusters with the ex-type of C. pandanicola (Fig. 87). However, strain MFLUCC 18–1182 differs from C. pandanicola by forming setae and appressoria, which were not observed in the ex-type strain of C. pandanicola (Tibpromma et al. 2018). This represents the first report of C. pandanicola on Mango from Thailand.
Colletotrichum pandanicola was isolated from leaves of Alstonia scholaris, is an evergreen tropical tree and an important medicinal plant distributed throughout the Indian peninsula including Western Ghats regions of Karnataka. Colletotrichum gleosporioides has been reported as a pathogen on A. scholaris (Chandra 1974; Mathur 1979; Sarbhoy and Agarwal 1990; Sarbhoy et al. 1971). Pathogenicity tests were performed on healthy A. scholaris plants. After 10–12 days of pot inoculation, the initial necrotic spots developed on leaves were smaller and later coalesced to form larger necrotized lesions. The lesions developed on inoculated plants were fusiform and grayish brown. Phylogeny supports (Fig. 87) our strain to be C. pandanicola. This is a new report of C. pandanicola on Alstonia scholaris from India.

Notes: Based on the phylogenetic analyses, Colletotrichum thasutense is closely related to C. xishuangbannaense (Fig. 87). Morphologically, C. thasutense differs from C. xishuangbannaense by producing longer and thicker conidia. Colletotrichum xishuangbannaense has 9–12 × 3–4 µm conidia (de Silva et al. 2021), whereas C. thasutense has 13.5–17.5 × 3.5–5 μm conidia. Colletotrichum thasutense can be differentiated from C. xishuangbannaense in having slightly curved conidia and obtuse at one end. However, C. xishuangbannaense produces straight conidia with rounded ends. Moreover, C. thasutense bears longer and thicker conidiogenous cells (10.5–23 × 2.5–4 μm) than C. xishuangbannaense (15–18 × 1.5–2 µm).
Hypocreales Lindau
Hypocreales includes 15 families, which are considered subtropical and tropical, namely Bionectriaceae, Calcarisporiaceae, Clavicipitaceae, Cocoonihabitaceae, Cordycipitaceae, Cylindriaceae, Flammocladiellaceae, Hypocreaceae, Myrotheciomycetaceae, Nectriaceae, Niessliaceae, Ophiocordycipitaceae, Sarocladiaceae, Stachybotryaceae, and Tilachlidiaceae, based on the basis of molecular evidence (Hyde et al. 2020a, b, c; Wijayawardene et al. 2022). These families differ in the presence of fleshy and colorful perithecial ascomata, ostiolate perithecia, varied ascospores, and pigment production. It has been estimated that Hypocreales diverged 229 million years ago (Hyde et al. 2020a, b, c).
Nectriaceae Tul. & C. Tul. [as 'Nectriei'], Select. fung. carpol. (Paris) 3: 3 (1865)
Nectriaceae was introduced by Tulasne and Tulasne (1865) and re-evaluated by Lombard et al. (2015) based on morphology and ten genes (acl1, act, cmdA, his3, ITS, LSU, rpb1, rpb2, tef1 and tub2). This family includes 74 genera that are recognized by different perithecial pigments (Wijayawardene 2022; Lombard et al. 2015; Crous et al. 2021). The family contains a wide range of species, including plant pathogens, human pathogens, and industrial and commercial species (Rossman 1996; Luo and Zhuang 2008; Chaverri et al. 2011; Lechat et al. 2015; Lombard et al. 2015).
Fusarium Link, Mag. Gesell. naturf. Freunde, Berlin 3(1–2): 10 (1809).
Fusarium is famous for its difficulty in identification and pathogenicity. It has been extensively discussed in recent decades as one of the most taxonomically confusing genus within Nectriaceae (Gräfenhan et al. 2011; O'Donnell et al. 2013; Crous et al. 2021; Geiser et al. 2021). Crous et al. (2021) and Wang et al. (2022) have updated the taxonomy of this genus to include 19 species complexes. In addition, a variety of species within this genus contain virulent crop pathogens, such as F. graminearum and F. oxysporun, two of the top ten most economically damaging fungal pathogens (Dean et al. 2012; Leslie and Summerell 2006).

Notes: Fusarium purpurea formed a well-supported sister clade to F. globosum with 100% ML and 1.00 Bayesian posterior probabilities (BYPP) support (Fig. 96). Fusarium purpurea differs by 3 bp in the CaM gene, 16 bp in the rpb2 gene, 6 bp in the tef1 gene, and 1 bp in the tub2 gene compared to F. globosum (Proctor et al. 2013; Yilmaz et al. 2021). Morphologically, F. purpurea differs in the types of microconida production and its number of septation. For example, F. purpurea produces two types of microconidia: clavate with a truncate base (aseptate) and globose (aseptate) without papilla, while three types of microconidia were found in F. globosum: clavate with a truncate base (0- to 3-septate), napiform/pyriform, and globose (0- to 1-septate) which often have a distinct papilla (Rheeder et al. 1996; Leslie and Summerell. 2006) (Fig. 97).
Microascales Luttr. ex Benny & R.K. Benj. (1980).
Microascales composed of seven families namely Ceratocystidaceae, Chadefaudiellaceae, Gondwanamycetaceae, Graphiaceae, Halosphaeriaceae, Microascaceae and Triadelphiaceae (Maharachchikumbura et al. 2016; Hyde et al. 2020a, b, c; Wijayawardene et al. 2022). A total of 109 genera were accepted under Microascales which were distributed in seven families (Wijayawardene et al. 2022).
Microascaceae Luttr. ex Malloch, Mycologia 62(4): 734 (1970)
Microascaceae was confined by Luttrell (1951) in Microascales and authenticated by Malloch (1970) (Maharachchikumbura et al. 2016). It includes saprobic, plant and opportunistic human pathogenic fungal genera (de Hoog et al. 2000; Sandoval-Denis et al. 2016; Maharachchikumbura et al. 2016). Currently this family is composed of 23 genera (Wijayawardene et al.2022).
Scedosporium Sacc. ex Castell. & Chalm., Manual of Tropical Medicine: 1122 (1919)
Scedosporium is a ubiquitous filamentous fungus with a worldwide distribution. Pseudallescharia boydii is the sexual morph of Scedosporium apiospermum, which was first discovered in 1889 as a causative agent of human otitis (Siebenmann et al. 1899). Later Monosporium apiospermum was discovered as an anamorphic state of P. bodydii from a patient with human mycetoma in 1919 (Shear 1922).
This genus is typified by a sexual morph (Pseudallescheria boydii) characterized by closed ascomata (cleistothecia), a peridium (ascomata wall) of ‘textura epidermoidea’, asci that are broadly clavate or spherical, and ascospores that are ellipsoidal or fusiform, which are symmetrical or nearly so (von Arx et al. 1988; De Hoog et al. 2000). The asexual morph includes: Scedosporium, characterized by hyaline, cylindrical conidiogenous cells arising from undifferentiated hyphae that produce obovoidal, hyaline, sticky conidia. Synnemata are characterized by large, erect bundles of hyphae terminating in a dense aggregate of conidiogenous cells. It produces conidia from a short extension of the conidiogenous cells with annellidic development (Gueho 1991; Lackner et al. 2014; Ramirez-Garcia et al. 2018).
Scedosporium species have been reported commonly from natural substrates such as soil, water anthropogenic influenced habitats, cattle dung and sewage (De Hoog et al. 2000; Ramirez-Garcia et al. 2018). Seventeen species are accepted under Scedosporium and these include: S. americanum, S. angustum, S. apiospermum, S. aurantiacum, S. boydii, S. cereisporum, S. deficiens, S. dehoogii, S. desertorum, S. fusoideum, S. haikouense, S. hainanense, S. magalhaesii, S. minutisporum, S. multisporum, S. rarisporum and S. sclerotiale (http://www.indexfungorum.org). The disease caused by Scedosporium species is termed as Scedosporosis. The occurrence of Scedosporium apiospermum associated with mushroom cultivation and Scedosporium marina and S. dehoogii from the marine environment are reported here.

Material examined: Thailand, Phayao Province, growing on the oyster mushroom growing substrate, 06 June 2020, AJ. Gajanayake, AJ 072 (inactive dry culture, MFLU 22-0160, new host record), living culture, MFLUCC 22-0192.
GenBank numbers: ON714510 (ITS), ON714511(LSU), ON730889 (tub2).
Notes: Our isolate MFLUCC 22-0192, clusters within Scedosporium apiospermum with a 90% ML and 0.97 BYPP support (Fig. 99). Furthermore, the morphology of our isolate MFLUCC 22-0192 resembles the original description and illustrations for Scedosporium apiospermum by Saccarado in Castellani and Chalmers (1919) and the description and morphological illustrations by Gilgado et al. (2010). However, there are size differences of conidiophores, conidiogenous cells and conidia, when we compare our strain with the strains described in Castellani and Chalmers (1919) and Gilgado et al. (2010). The reason for this may be the differences in the media in which the colonies were grown.
Scedosporium apiospermum has been mainly identified as an opportunistic clinical pathogen relevant to many infections which commonly occur in the bones, central nervous system, lungs, paranasal sinuses, skin and soft tissues (Shinohara and George (2009); Goldman et al. 2016). Seephueak et al. (2017) isolated 21 fungal species from spent mushroom substrate of Pleurotus sp. collected from mushroom farms in southern Thailand. Among those 21 fungal species there were, Alternaria spp., Aspergillus spp., Chaetomium sp., Cunninghamella spp., Fusarium spp., Lasiodiplodia sp., Neurospora sp., Penicillium spp., Rhizoctonia sp. and Trichoderma spp. (Seephueak et al. 2017). Suada et al. (2015) have reported Aspergillus spp., Fusarium spp., Gliocladium sp., Mucor spp., Neurospora spp., Paecilomyces sp., Penicillium spp., Pythium sp., Stachybotrys spp. and Trichoderma spp. as contaminants from oyster mushroom growing substrate. According to best our knowledge this is the first report of Scedosporium apiospermum as a contaminant of oyster mushroom growing substrate.

Colonies on PDA attaining 30–35 mm diameter after 14 days at 25 °C, circular, raised, light grayish at center and smoke gray at margins, cottony; yellow in reverse with entire margin. The optimum growth temperature was from 25 to 37 °C, and did not grow at 45 °C. Hyphae hyaline to pale brown, branched and septate, 3–7.5 µm wide. Synnemata developed after 30 days of incubation at 25 °C; synnemata solitary to gregarious, erect, dark brown, 190–1400 µm tall with a cylindrical stipe from 10 to 25 µm wide ( = 647 × 16.9 µm, n = 10), dark gray, smooth walled, terminated into a slimy head of conidia, 25–35 µm long and 35–50 µm wide ( = 30 × 36 µm, n = 10). Conidiophores solitary, branched, often reduced to conidiogenous cells growing laterally bearing single verticil of conidiogenous cells. Conidiogenous cells terminal or lateral, hyaline, smooth-walled, cylindrical to slightly flask-shaped, 25–50 × 2–3 µm ( = 35 × 16 µm, n = 10). Conidiogenous cells arising from undifferentiated hyphae, cylindrical to slightly flask-shaped, producing slimy heads of one-celled, smooth-walled, sub-hyaline, obovoid or sub-cylindrical conidia. There were three types of conidia: (i) those produced on solitary conidiophores subhyaline, smooth-walled, obovoid or subcylindrical 5–10 × 1.5–3 µm ( = 6.8 × 2.3 µm, n = 20); (ii) those produced on synnemata predominantly cylindrical or claviform, 7.5–10 × 2–3 µm ( = 8.7 × 2.4 µm, n = 20) with a wide truncate base; (iii) those developing mainly from the undifferentiated hyphae of the substrate, sessile or on short protrusions, solitary, lateral, brown, smooth, and thick-walled, mostly obovoid 5–10 × 2–2.5 µm ( = 9 × 2.4 µm, n = 20). Sexual state not observed after incubation for 2 months at 25 °C.
Material examined: India, Tamil Nadu, Tiruvarur, Muthupet mangroves (10.4° N 79.5° E), on decaying woody stem of the halophyte Suaeda monoica Forssk. ex J.F.Gmel. (Amaranthaceae) 28 November 2015, B. Devadatha (AMH-9946, holotype), ex-type living culture NFCCI-4273.

Notes: Our present collection of Scedosporium marina (NFCCI-4273) has been assigned to Scedosporium based on its similar morphological characteristics in having Graphium-like synnemata and scattered, poorly differentiated, percurrent conidiogenous cells (Gueho 1991). The present taxon, Scedosporium marina (NFCCI-4273) and S. aurantiacum (FMR8630) share similar morphological characteristics in producing three different types of conidia like the obovoid, or sub cylindrical, cylindrical or claviform, sessile obovoid conidia with overlapping conidial dimensions and yellow diffusible pigments on PDA. However, combined multigene phylogenetic anlayses of combined datasets of ITS and tub2 revealed that Scedosporium marina (NFCCI-4273) formed distinct lineage sharing a sister relation with Scedosporium aurantiacum with significant statistical support 100% ML, 97% MP (105). Morphologically S. marina (NFCCI-4273) is distinct from S. aurantiacum (FMR8630) in having long and wide synemmata (170–1110 × 10–25 vs 330–750 × 7.5–17.5), smaller heads (60–140 × 60–165 vs 60–70 × 140). The condiogenous cells of S. marina (NFCCI-4273) are percurrent and long in contrast to S. aurantiacum (FMR8630) (25–55 × 2–2.5 vs 10–37 × 1.5 2.5).
The optimum growth temperature of S. marina (NFCCI-4273) was from 25 to 37 °C and did not grow at 45 °C whereas S. aurantiacum (FMR8630) was from 37 to 40 °C and growth was also found at 45 °C but the fungus did not grow at 50 °C (Gilgado et al. 2005). The ITS sequence comparison revealed more than 30 nucleotide base pair differences between two taxa, which supports the establishment of a new species for our new taxon. Furthermore, S. marina is a saprobe on decaying woody stem of the halophyte Suaeda monoica from a marine habitat unlike other species of Scedosporium which are known to be human pathogens. Scedosporium aurantiacum is clearly distinguished from S. marina as an opportunistic human pathogen that is known to cause various infections in lungs, ears, respiratory sinuses and subcutaneous abscess in patients of diabetes and malignant lymphoma (Kondo et. al 2018). Hence, based on the above mentioned morphological, cultural, molecular and habitat differences we introduce a new species, S. marina, in Scedosporium.

Index Fungorum number: IF538388; Facesoffungi number: FoF04829; Fig. 102, 103
Saprobic on decaying woody of Avicennia marina. Asexual morph: Colonies effuse, light brown. Mycelium mostly immersed, composed of septate, branched, smooth, pale brown to hyaline hyphae. Synnemata solitary to gregarious, erect, dark brown, 190–390 µm tall with a cylindrical stipe from 10 to 30 µm wide ( = 242 × 16 µm, n = 10), dark gray, smooth-walled, terminated into a slimy head of conidia, slimy head 45–75 µm long, 55–80 µm wide ( = 60 × 64 µm, n = 10). Hyphae interwoven at the base, unbranched in the stipe, branched at the apex to form conidiophores. Conidiophores synnematous, solitary, branched, often reduced to conidiogenous cells which were subhyaline. Conidiogenous cells terminal or lateral, hyaline, smooth-walled, cylindrical to slightly flask-shaped, 25–40 × 2–3 µm ( = 31 × 2.5 µm, n = 10). Conidiogenous cells arise from undifferentiated hyphae, cylindrical to slightly flask-shaped, producing slimy heads of one-celled, smooth-walled, sub-hyaline, obovoid or sub-cylindrical conidia. Conidia: two types of conidia: (i) those produced on synnemata and solitary conidiophores were predominantly cylindrical or claviform, hyaline, 5–10 × 2–3 µm ( = 7.3 × 2.7 µm, n = 20) with a wide truncate base; (ii) those developed mainly from the undifferentiated hyphae of the substrate were sessile or on short protrusions, solitary, lateral, brown, smooth, and thick-walled, mostly obovoid 2.5–7.5 × 2–3 µm ( = 4.3 × 2.4 µm, n = 20). Sexual morph: Not observed.
Culture characteristics: Conidia germinating on Sea Water agar within 24 h. Germ tubes produced from the conidial base. Colonies on PDA fast growing, attaining 40–45 mm diameter after 14 days at 25 °C, circular, raised, with white to grey at centre and white to cream at margins, cottony; pale yellow in reverse with entire margin. The optimum growth temperature was from 25 to 37 °C. The fungus did not grow at 45 °C. Hyphae hyaline to pale brown, branched and septate, 1–3 µm wide. Conidiophores synemmatous; synnemata solitary to gregarious, erect, dark brown, 180–255 µm tall with a cylindrical stipe from 10–30 µm wide ( = 223 × 17 µm, n = 10), dark gray, smooth walled, terminating into a slimy head of conidia, 45–85 µm long and 55–90 µm wide ( = 63 × 66 µm, n = 10). Hyphae interwoven at the base, unbranched in the stipe, branching at the apex to form conidiophores. Conidiophores solitary, branched often reduced to conidiogenous cells which were sub-hyaline. Conidiogenous cells terminal or lateral, hyaline smooth-walled, cylindrical to slightly flask-shaped, 30–45 × 2–3 µm ( = 35 × 2.4 µm, n = 10). Conidiogenous cells arising from undifferentiated hyphae, cylindrical to slightly flask-shaped, producing slimy heads of one-celled, smooth-walled, sub hyaline, obovoid or sub-cylindrical conidia. Conidia: two types: (i) those produced on synnemata and solitary conidiophores, predominantly cylindrical or claviform, hyaline, 5–15 × 2–5 µm ( = 10 × 3 µm, n = 20) with a wide truncate base; (ii) those developed mainly from the undifferentiated hyphae of the substrate were sessile or on short protrusions, solitary, lateral, brown, smooth, and thick-walled, mostly obovoid 2.5–9 × 2–5 µm ( = 5 × 3.5 µm, n = 20).
Material examined: India, Tamil Nadu, Tiruvarur, Muthupet mangroves (10.4° N 79.5° E), on decaying wood of Avicennia marina (Forssk.) Vierh. (Acanthaceae), 28 November 2015, B. Devadatha (AMH 9945), living culture, NFCCI- 4274.
Hosts: Agricultural areas, playgrounds, riverbanks, Soil, Human infections (Rougeron et al. 2018)
Distribution: Australia, Austria, Chile, India, Netherlands, Spain, Thailand (Rougeron et al. 2018)
GenBank numbers: MH569493 (ITS), MH569492 (LSU), MH571777 (SSU)
Notes: Multigene phylogenetic anlayses of combined datasets of ITS sequence data revealed that Scedosporium dehoogii (NFCCI-4274) clustered together with the type and other existing strains of S. dehoogii with moderate statistical 74% ML and 78% MP support (Fig. 103). Scedosporium dehoogii (NFCCI-4274) from decaying wood of Suaeda monoica and Avicennia marina and colonies on PDA also share similar morphological characteristics with S. dehoogii (CBS-117406) reported from the soil (Gilgado et al. 2008). Scedosporium dehoogii is a common environmental species occurs on locations with high human activities like soil, water, agricultural areas and not involved in human infections (Kaltseis et al. 2009). However, this is the first report of Scedosporium dehoogii (NFCCI- 4274) from marine habitats. Earlier Medicopsis romeroi has been reported from mangroves (Devadatha et al. 2020). Also, Calabon et al. (2018) reported S. aurantiacum from Sponges in mangroves. With the present two species from mangroves totally three Scedosporium spp. are recorded from marine environments (Figs. 103, 104).
Hypocreomycetidae incertae sedis (Rhexoacrodictys and Dematipyriforma clade)
Notes: In the current study, Rhexoacrodictys and Dematipyriforma form a distinct clade with a high statistical support (100/100/100 for ML/MP/BYPP, respectively) that is phylogenetically related to the orders Pleurotheciales and Savoryellales and might represent a new lineage (Fig. 105). The phylogenetic placement of Rhexoacrodictys is controversial in various studies. Shi et al. (2021) placed Rhexoacrodictys in Pleurotheciales, while Boonmee et al. (2021) placed the genus in Savoryellales. Sun et al. (2017) placed Dematipyriforma in Savoryellales where it forms a basal branch to representatives of the order.
Dematipyriforma L. Y. Sun, Hai-Yan Li, Xiang Sun & L.D. Guo.
Notes: Dematipyriforma is a monotypic genus typified by D. aquilaria L. Y. Sun, Hai-Yan Li, Xiang Sun & L.D. Guo that was isolated as an endophyte from a trunk of Aquilaria crassna in Laos (Sun et al. 2017). The genus is characterized by monoblastic, integrated, intercalary or terminal, pale brown to brown, determinate, cylindrical conidiogenous cells; solitary, pyriform conidia with transverse and often oblique or longitudinal, usually with a single small basal cell; produce variously shaped Chlamydospores in culture (Sun et al. 2017). During an ongoing study of freshwater fungi from River Nile in Egypt (e.g. Abdel-Aziz 2016a, b, c, 2020), three new species of Dematipyriforma were recorded on submerged wood and date palm rachis in the River Nile, Egypt that are described in this article based on morphology and their phylogenetic placement. Species of Dematipyriforma are phylogenetically related to Rhexoacrodictys species, both genera have rhexolytic conidial secession, however the later genus has macronematous conidiophores and percurrently extending conidiogenous cells vs. absent or micronematous conidiophores and determinate conidiogenous cells in Dematipyriforma. Boonmee et al. (2021) described Rhexoacrodictys nigrospora Boonmee, D.F. Bao & K.D. Hyde from decaying wood in Thailand with micronematous or semi-macronematous conidiophores and determinate conidiogenous cells. They did not include the sequences of Dematipyriforma aquilariain their phylogenetic analyses and in our opinion R. nigrospora can be placed in Dematipyriforma based on morphology of the conidiophores (micronematous vs. macronematous with bulbous base) and conidiogenesis (determinate vs. percurrent proliferation in Rhexoacrodictys erecta (Ellis & Everh.) W.A. Baker & Morgan-Jones) and the phylogenetic analyses (Fig. 105).
Dematipyriforma aquatica Abdel-Aziz &Abdel-Wahab sp. nov.
Index Fungorum number: IF900081; Facesoffungi number: FoF13400; Fig. 106
Etymology: Named after the aquatic habitat, where this fungus was collected.
Holotype: SUMCC H-12001 (Sohag University Microbial Culture Collection)
Saprobic on submerged wood in the River Nile. Sexual morph: Not observed. Asexual morph: Mycelium immersed and superficial, sub-hyaline to brown, septate, branched, smooth, 1.5–4 μm wide. Conidiophores absent or present, when present micronematous, mononematous, sub-hyaline to brown, flexuous, smooth, unicellular, 7–15 μm long, 1.5–4 μm wide. Conidiogenous cells holoblastic, integrated, intercalary or terminal, sub-hyaline to brown, determinate, ampulliform, clavate, subglobose, smooth, 5–8 μm long, 5–6 μm wide.

Material examined: Egypt, Sohag City, the River Nile, on submerged wood, 14 August 2012, F. A. Abdel-Aziz, SUMCC H-12001, holotype, ex-type living culture, SUMCC 12101.
GenBank numbers: MT522154 (SSU), MT522155 (LSU)
Notes: Combined phylogenetic analyses of SSU and LSU rDNA placed the three new species of Dematipyriforma with the type species D. aquilaria with high statistical support as distinct new taxa. The three new species differ from D. aquilaria in having black conidia vs. pale grey olivaceous to pale brown in the latter species. Dematipyriforma aquilaria was isolated as an endophyte from a trunk of Aquilaria crassna in Laos (Sun et al. 2017), while the three new species are freshwater taxa. Conidia of D. aquilaria are evenly pigmented, while the three new species have black conidia with basal cells that are lighter. Chlamydospores of D. aquilaria have thick walls with axial perforative canals, these canals are absent in the three new species. A comparison of the 590 nucleotides of the D1/D2 region of the LSU rDNA of the three new species of Dematipyriforma with D. aquilarias hows 14 base pair differences (2.37%) which justifies the erection of the three new species following the guidelines of Jeewon and Hyde (2016).
Dematipyriforma globispora Abdel-Aziz &Abdel-Wahab sp. nov.
Index Fungorum number: IF900083; Facesoffungi number: FoF13865; Fig. 107

Saprobic on submerged wood in the River Nile. Sexual morph: Not observed. Asexual morph: Mycelium immersed and superficial, sub-hyaline to brown, septate, branched, smooth, 2–4 μm wide. Conidiophores absent or present, when present micronematous, mononematous, sub-hyaline to brown, flexuous, smooth, unicellular, 6–12.5 μm long, 1.5–4.5 μm wide. Conidiogenous cells holoblastic, integrated, intercalary or terminal, sub-hyaline to brown, determinate, clavate, smooth, 4–6.5 μm long, 2.5–4.5 μm wide. Conidial secession rhexolytic. Conidia solitary or aggregated, effuse and heavily covered the surface of the wood, intercalary or terminal, smooth, globose or subglobose, rounded at the apex, black, with brown to dark-brown basal cell, muriform, with irregular transverse, longitudinal and oblique septa and form mass of cells, not constricted at the septa, sometimes surrounded by network of hyphae, 17–37 × 15–30 μm ( = 27.7 × 20.9 μm, n = 60), smaller buds are produced from conidia that are yellow–brown to brown in color, muriform, 11–19.2 × 7.1–14.5 μm. Chlamydospores intercalary or terminal, catenated, straight, or curved, brown to black, smooth, form large, black muriform masses similar to conidia but much larger in size 37–120 × 17–30 μm.
Culture characteristics: Colonies on PDA reaching 20 mm diam after 3 weeks, at 25 °C, dark-brown to black, reverse dark-brown to black. Conidial dimensions and shapes are similar to those found on natural wood.

GenBank numbers: MT522158 (SSU), MT522153 (LSU).
Notes: Dematipyriforma globispora differs from the other three species in having smaller conidia, that are mostly globose, sometimes surrounded by networks of hyphae and produce buds that are pale-brown to brown. Dematipyriforma globispora and D. aquatica are phylogenetically related, however, they differ in their morphology. Conidial cells in D. globispora are arranged irregularly and conidia are globose with small buds and surrounded by network of hyphae. Conidia in D. aquatica are pyriform or subglobose with 3 to 5 continuous transverse septa. Rhexoacrodictys nigrospora produce similar conidia with overlapping dimensions, however, conidia of D. globispora are surrounded by network of hyphae with brown buds. Mycelium in R. nigrospora are narrow (1–2 μm wide) with verruculose or finely echinulate-walled (Boonmee et al. 2021), while hyphae in D. globispora are 2–4 μm wide and smooth. A comparison of the 805 nucleotides of the LSU rDNA for D. globispora and R. nigrosporashows 11 base pair differences (1.36%) that confirm they are two different species.
Dematipyriforma nilotica Abdel-Aziz &Abdel-Wahab, sp. nov.
Index Fungorum number: IF900084; Facesoffungi number: FoF13401; Fig. 108

Asexual morph: Mycelium immersed and superficial, sub-hyaline to brown, septate, branched, smooth, 1.5–3.5 μm wide. Conidiophores absent or present, when present micronematous, mononematous, sub-hyaline to reddish-brown, flexuous, smooth, unicellular, 7–13 μm long, 2.5–4.5 μm wide. Conidiogenous cells holoblastic, integrated, intercalary or terminal, sub-hyaline to brown, determinate, ampulliform, clavate, subglobose, cylindrical, smooth, 1.5–8.5 μm long, 4.5–6.5 μm wide. Conidial secession rhexolytic. Conidia solitary or aggregated, effuse and heavily covered the surface of the wood, intercalary or terminal, smooth, or surrounded by fine fibers, pyriform, globose or subglobose, rounded at the apex, conidial cells are filled gradually with black material, black when mature, with brown to dark-brown basal cell, muriform, 6–9 cells, 3–5 transverse septa and 0–2 longitudinal or oblique septa, not or slightly constricted at the septa, 31–45 × 21–37 μm ( = 37 × 26.3 μm, n = 50), basal cells are singles. Chlamydospores intercalary or terminal, dark-brown to black, smooth, form large, black muriform masses with irregular shapes.
Culture characteristics: Colonies on PDA reaching 30 mm diam after 3 weeks, at 25 °C, brown to reddish dark-brown, reverse brown to dark-brown. Conidial dimensions and shapes are similar to those found on natural wood.
Material examined: Egypt, Sohag City, the River Nile, on submerged date palm rachis, 14 August 2012, F. A. Abdel-Aziz, SUMCC H-12003, holotype, ex-type living culture, SUMCC 12103.
GenBank numbers: MT522157 (SSU), MT522156 (LSU).
Notes: Dematipyriforma nilotica differs from the other three species in having larger conidial dimensions that sometimes surrounded by fine fibres. Dematipyriforma nilotica is phylogenetically related with D. aquilaria, however, the first species have black and larger conidia (31–45 × 21–37 μm vs. 25–37 × 15–22 μm in D. nilotica and D. aquilaria respectively) and grow on decaying date palm rachis in freshwater habitat, while the latter species produce brown conidia and live as an endophyte. Chlamdydospores in D. aquilaria have perforative canal that is absent in D. nilotica. Both D. aquatica and D. nilotica have 3–5 continuous transverse septa with 0–2 longitudinal septa, however, conidia in the latter species are surrounded by fine fibres and are larger in size (27–38 × 15–26 μm vs. 31–45 × 21–37 μm for D. aquatica and D. nilotica respectively). A comparison of the 800 nucleotides of the LSU rDNA for D. aquatica and D. niloticashows 15 base pair differences (1.87%) that confirm they are two different species.

Subclass Savoryellomycetidae Hongsanan, K.D. Hyde & Maharachch.
Coniochaetales Huhndorf, A.N. Mill. & F.A. Fernández, Mycologia 96(2): 378 (2004).
Coniochaetales was introduced by Huhndorf et al. (2004) with Coniochaetaceae as the type family. Coniochaetales comprises two families namely Coniochaetaceae and Cordanaceae. Cordanaceae was previously accommodated in Cordanales. Hongsanan et al. (2017) treated Cordanales as a synonym of Coniochaetales based on molecular clock evidence. Hyde et al. (2020a, b, c) suggested the divergence time for Coniochaetales to be around 131 MYA. Coniochaetales comprises two families and five genera (Hyde et al. 2020a, b, c).
Coniochaetaceae Malloch and Cain (1971).
Coniochaetaceae was introduced by Malloch and Cain (1971) to accommodate two genera Coniochaeta and Coniochaetidium (Sacc.). Coniochaetaceae is typified by Coniochaeta and accommodates two genera Barrina A.W. Ramaley and Coniochaeta (Sacc.) Cooke (Wijayawardene et al. 2020) based on multi gene phylogeny (Maharachchikumbura et al. 2015a, b; Samarakoon et al. 2018). Species belonging to this family are saprobes and pathogenic on various decaying wood and plants or animals, respectively (Khan et al. 2013; Maharachchikumbura et al. 2015a, b, 2016; Wijayawardene et al. 2017a, b; Samarakoon et al. 2018).
Coniochaeta (Sacc.) Cooke, Grevillea 16(no. 77): 16 (1887)
Coniochaeta was introduced by (Sacc.) Cooke (1887a, b) and is typified by Coniochaeta ligniaria (Grev.) Cooke. Coniochaeta is characterized by solitary or aggregated, typically setose, dark brown to black, pyriform to globose ascomata, membranaceous to pseudoparenchymatous or coriaceous peridium, paraphysate hamathecium, unitunicate and thin-walled asci with a small non-amyloid apical ring and one-celled, usually dark brown and often laterally compressed with a germ slit ascospores (Greville 1823–1824, Cooke 1887a, b). The hyphomycetous asexual morph is characterized by phialidic conidiogenous cells, previously described in Lecythophora (Weber 2002; Khan et al. 2013). In this study, we introduce a new species C. caraganae collected on dead twigs of Caragana frutex in Russia based on morphology and phylogenetic evidence.
Coniochaeta caraganae D. Pem, Bulgakov & K.D. Hyde, sp. nov.
Index Fungorum number: IF559528, Facesoffungi number: FoF08686; Fig. 109
Etymology: ″caraganae″ refers to the host plant from which the fungus was isolated.
Holotype: MFLU 17-2500
Saprobic on dead branch of Caragana frutex. Sexual morph: Not observed. Asexual morph: Coelomycetous. Conidiomata 106–114 μm diam., 4–7 μm high (x̄ = 110.7 × 6.2 μm, n = 20), small, pycnidial, solitary, scattered, immersed, uniloculate, globose to subglobose, thin-walled. Peridium 26–32 μm composed of two layers. Inner layer consisting cells of textura prismatica, hyaline to subhyaline, strongly compressed. Outer layer consisting of densely packed, moderately thick-walled, brown cells of textura angularis, tending to be darker and more isodiametric towards the outside. Conidiophores 7–10 × 2–3 μm (x̄ = 6.5 × 2.3 μm, n = 20), hyaline, straight or irregularly bent, reduced to conidiogeneous cells. Conidiogenous cells 2–3 × 4–6 μm (x̄ = 3.1 × 5.1 μm, n = 20), holoblastic, annellidic, simple, determinate, hyaline, doliiform to cylindrical, smooth-walled. Conidia 3–4 × 5–6 μm (x̄ = 4.1 × 5.8 μm, n = 20) oblong to ovoid, straight, rounded at both ends, sometimes truncate at base, cylindrical, aseptate, smooth and thick-walled, eguttulate.
Culture characteristics: colonies on MEA, reaching 25–35 mm diam. after 4 weeks at 25 °C, grey whitish, dense, effuse, with white hyphal stands towards the edge, rough surface towards centre, diffuse margin; reverse dark grey with whitish edges, grayish orange at the center, radiating, effuse and zonate.
Material examined: Russia, Donetsk People's Republic, Shakhtersk district, regional landscape park «Donetsk ridge» (Rus. «Donetsky kryazh»), steppe near Leontievsky forest, on dead twigs of Caragana frutex (L.) K. Koch (Fabaceae), 19 May 2017, Timur S. Bulgakov (MFLU 17-2500, holotype); ex-type living culture MFLUCC 18-0780.
GenBank numbers: MT573224 (ITS), MT573223 (LSU).
Notes: Based on phylogenetic analyses, the new asexual species Coniochaeta caraganae is closely related with C. coluteae (Samarakoon et al. 2018; Fig. 110). The asexual morph of C. coluteae is hyphomycetous and has been obtained from culture. It is characterized by hyaline vegetative hyphae, hyphoide conidiophores, phialidic conidiogenous cells and one celled hyaline conidia. Our new species C. caraganae has been obtained from dead branch of Caragana frutex and is characterized by pycnidial conidiomata, hyaline conidiophores and oblong to ovoid conidia. In a comparison of the 565 ITS (+ 5.8S) nucleotides of these two strains C. coluteae MFLUCC 17-2299 to that of C. caraganae reveals 11 (1.9%) nucleotide differences which justifies these two isolates as two distinct taxa (Jeewon and Hyde 2016). Therefore, C. caraganae is introduced herein as a new species.
Pleurotheciales Réblová & Seifert
Notes: Pleurotheciales was introduced by Réblová et al. (2016) with Pleurotheciaceae as the type family. Wijayawardene et al. (2020, 2022) listed Pleurotheciales as a monotypic order and new taxa have been included in it (Boonmee et al. 2021; Crous et al. 2021; Dong et al. 2021).
Pleurotheciaceae Réblová & Seifert, in Réblová, Seifert, Fournier & Štěpánek, Persoonia 37: 63 (2015) [2016]
Notes: Wijayawardene et al. (2022) listed 14 genera in Pleurotheciaceae. Recently, Saprodesmium was introduced in this family for a saprobic fungus found on decaying wood submerged in freshwater in China (Dong et al. 2021). Pleurotheciaceae was introduced by Réblová et al. (2016) with Pleurothecium recurvatum as the type species. Fourteen genera viz. Adelosphaeria, Anapleurothecium, Coleodictyospora, Dematipyriforma, Helicoascotaiwania, Melanotrigonum, Monotosporella, Neomonodictys, Phaeoisaria, Phragmocephala, Pleurotheciella, Pleurothecium, Saprodesmium, and Sterigmatobotrys are accepted in the family (Hyde et al. 2020a, b, c; Boonmee et al. 2021; Dong et al. 2021; Bao et al. 2022). Species in Pleurotheciaceae are cosmopolitan with a wide range of hosts and substrates from terrestrial and freshwater habitats (Hyde et al. 2020a, b, c; Dong et al. 2021; Boonmee et al. 2021; Bao et al. 2022).
The sexual morphs of Pleurotheciaceae share perithecial, immersed to superficial, papillate ascomata, leathery to fragile, carbonaceous peridial walls, unitunicate, cylindrical, 8-spored, asci with a distinct non-amyloid apical annulus, abundant paraphyses and ellipsoidal to fusiform, septate, hyaline or versicolorous ascospores (Réblová et al. 2016; Luo et al. 2018a, b; Hyde et al. 2020a, b, c). The asexual morphs of Pleurotheciaceae have been reported as hyphomycetes forming indeterminate synnemata or loose fascicles. Conidiophores are macronematous or semi-macronematous. Conidiogenous cells produce holoblastic conidia, with rhexolytic conidial secession on short denticles or extending polyblastically on a sympodial rachis. Conidia are hyaline to brown, varied in shape, septate or aseptate (Hyde et al. 2020a, b, c, Dong et al. 2021, Boonmee et al. 2021, Bao et al. 2022).
Rhexoacrodictys W.A. Baker & Morgan-Jones, Mycotaxon 82: 98 (2002)
Rhexoacrodictys was introduced by Baker et al. (2002) to accommodate species previously identified as Acorcdictys (i.e., A. erecta, A. fimicola, A. fuliginosa and A. queenslandica) and wherein Rhexoacrodictys erecta was designated as the type. Two additional species R. martini and R. broussonetiae were subsequently added to the genus based on morphological characteristics (Delgado 2009; Xiao et al. 2018). While R. martini and R. queenslandica were transferred to Distoseptispora and Junewangia based on phylogenetic analysis (Xia et al. 2017). Currently, four species are accepted in Rhexoacrodictys (R. broussonetiae, R. erecta, R. fimicola, and R. fuliginosa).

Material examined: Thailand, Chiang Rai Province, Muang District, on dead culms of Bambusa sp. (Poaceae), 11 November 2020, X. G. Tian U–2–3 (MFLU 21–0277), living culture, MFLUCC 21–0157.
Habitat: on submerged wood, Arundo donax, Bambusa multiplex, Bambusa sp., Fagus crenata, palm tree, Saccharum officinarum, Sorghum bicolor, Sporoschisma saccardoi and Zea mays (Ellis 1961; Baker et al. 2002; Zhao et al. 2011; Xia et al. 2017; Shi et al. 2021).
Distribution: Known from China, India, Japan, Sierra Leone, South Africa, Thailand, USA and Venezuela (Ellis 1961; Baker et al. 2002; Zhao et al. 2011; Xia et al. 2017; Shi et al. 2021; This study).
GenBank numbers: OL606411 (ITS), OL606151 (LSU), OL606015 (SSU).
Notes: This species was reported as Acrodictys erecta on Arundo donax in Venezuela and on Zea mays in USA by Ellis (1961). Baker et al. (2002) examined several type specimens of synonyms of this species and erected Rhexoacrodictys based on morphological analysis. Our new isolate (MFLUCC 21-0157) clustered with the strains of Rhexoacrodictys erecta (HMAS 245615, IFRD500–016 and HMAS 245616; Fig. 112). Morphologically, our new collection is similar to those of Rhexoacrodictys erecta (Ellis 1961; Baker et al. 2002).
Based on nucleotide comparisons of ITS, LSU and SSU, our new strain (MFLUCC 21–0157) and three of Rhexoacrodictys erecta (HMAS 245615, IFRD500–016 and HMAS 245616) show no differences; however, the new strain (MFLUCC 21–0157) is different from Monotosporella seteosa (HKUCC 3712) in 14/516 bp (2.71%) of the LSU (data contains 6 gaps). Based on both phylogeny and morphology showed that our strain (MFLUCC 21-0157) is identical to Rhexoacrodictys erecta.
Phaeoisaria Höhn., Sber. Akad. Wiss. Wien, Math.-naturw. Kl., Abt. 1 118: 330 (1909).

Notes: Phaeoisaria was described by von Höhnel (1909) and has 32 records in the Index Fungorum and MycoBank databases (8 June 2022). Based on our phylogenetic analysis (Fig. 114), our isolates here are proposed for the new species P. goiasensis. Phaeoisaria goiasensis differs from P. annesophieae, which was isolated from soil in The Netherlands, by the presence of synnemata in old cultures (after 30 days) and defined conidiophores in P. goiasensis, and by the size of conidiogenous cells (12–39 × 1–3.5 µm), conidia (4.5–9 × 2–3.5 µm), and chlamydospores (9–18 × 7–9.5 µm) of P. annesophieae (Crous et al. 2017). The BLASTn searches (8 June 2022) using ITS sequences of P. goiasensis demonstrated that they are identical to sequences deposited as Phaeoisaria sp. INBio 4514E, which was isolated from substrate related to Passalidae galleries in decayed trunks (Vargas-Asensio et al. 2014), and to sequences obtained from submerged wood and deposited as Ascomycota (Brown et al. 2016). The ITS sequences from P. goiasensis also had highest similarity to P. annesophieae (strain CBS 143235, GenBank MG022180.1; Identities = 500/511 (98%), 0 gap (0%)). The LSU sequences had high identity to Phaeoisaria sp. INBio 4514E and P. annesophieae MFLU 19–0531, amongst other sequences deposited as Phaeoisaria species/isolates. The tef1 sequences had high similarity to P. filiformis MFLU 18-1462 and it was also 96.59% identical to P. sedimenticola S-908. The tub2 sequences had low identity to Sordariomycetes species.
Pleurothecium Höhn., Ber. dt. bot. Ges. 37: 154 (1919).
Notes: Pleurothecium was introduced by Höhnel (1919) with Pleurothecium recurvatum (Morgan) Höhn as the type species. There are 11 species listed in Index Fungorum (June, 2022), and a new species, P. aquisubtropicum, is described and illustrated here (Fig. 5).
Pleurothecium aquisubtropicum J. Ma, Y.Z. Lu & K.D. Hyde, sp. nov.
Index Fungorum number: IF559508, Facesoffungi number: FoF08709; Fig. 115
Etymology: Referring to the aquatic habitat and collecting site in subtropical country, China.
Holotype: GZAAS 21–0384
Saprobic on decaying wood in a freshwater stream. Asexual morph: Colonies on natural substrate superficial, effuse, brown or dark brown, smooth. Mycelium immersed or superficial, smooth. Conidiophores 82–177 × 3.5–5.5 μm ( = 121.3 × 4.3 μm, n = 20), macronematous, mononematous, sucylindrical, straight, unbranched, smooth, septate, brown, paler towards the apex. Conidiogenous cells 25–38 × 2.7–3.8 μm ( = 29.6 × 3.2 μm, n = 15), holoblastic, polyblastic, integrated, terminal, subhyaline to pale brown, subcylindrical. Conidia 13.4–15.5 × 3.4–5.5 μm ( = 14.4 × 4.4 μm, n = 21), acrogenous, solitary, aseptate, pale brown, straight, guttulate, hyaline or pale green, smooth. Sexual morph: Not observed.
Culture Characters: Colonies growing slowly on PDA, reaching 37 mm in 35 days at 25 °C, flat, filiform, round, gray or white, smooth; In reverse, milky at the center, brown or dark brown at the margin.
Material examined: China, Guizhou Province, Xishui County, on decaying wood submerged in a freshwater stream, 13 February 2021, Jian Ma, TL2(GZAAS 21–0384, holotype); ex–type living culture, GZCC 21–0670.
GenBank numbers: OM339436 (ITS), OM339433 (LSU)
Notes: Our new collection fits well with the generic concept of Pleurothecium in having macronematous, mononematous, brown conidiophores, polyblastic, integrated conidiogenous cells and septate, smooth allantoid or fusiformis conidia. In our phylogenetic analyses, our new collection of Pleurothecium aquisubtropicum was placed within Pleurothecium and is basal to other Pleurothecium species (Fig. 116). Pleurothecium aquisubtropicum resembles P. aquaticum in the shape of the conidiophores, and conidia (Luo et al. 2018a, b). However, Pleurothecium aquisubtropicum differs from P. aquaticum by its darker and longer conidiophores (82–177 μm vs 53–65 μm) and smaller conidia (13.5–15.5 × 3–5.5 μm vs 19–21 × 4.5–5.5 μm). Hence, based on both morphology and phylogeny, we introduce our collection as a new species of Pleurothecium aquisubtropicum.
Subclass Xylariomycetidae O.E. Erikss & Winka.
Amphisphaeriales D Hawksw & OE Erikss.
Amphisphaeriales was introduced by Eriksson and Hawksworth (1986). However, Amphisphaeriales was synonymized with Xylariales by Eriksson and Hawksworth (1987). Based on morphological and molecular data, these two orders were separated and Amphisphaeriales was resurrected (Senanayake et al. 2015). The evidence for the continuation of Amphisphaeriales and Xylariales as distinct orders in Xylariomycetidae is also provided in Maharachchikumbura et al. (2016), Samarakoon et al. (2016a, b), Hongsanan et al. (2017) and Daranagama et al. (2018). Amphisphaeriales comprises with 17 families viz Amphisphaeriaceae, Apiosporaceae, Beltraniaceae, Castanediellaceae, Clypeophysalosporaceae, Cylindriaceae, Hyponectriaceae, Iodosphaeriaceae, Melogrammataceae, Oxydothidaceae, Phlogicylindriaceae, Pseudomassariaceae, Pseudosporidesmiaceae, Pseudotruncatellaceae, Sporocadaceae, Vialaeaceae, and Xyladictyochaetaceae (Hyde et al. 2020a, b, c; Wijayawardena et al. 2020).
Sporocadaceae Corda, [as 'Sporocadeae'], Icon. fung. (Prague) 5: 34 (1842).
Sporpcadaceae was first established by Corda (1842) and typified by Sporodocadus Corda (1839). The members of Sporocadaceae can be found as saprobes, pathogens, and endophytes in a variety of habitats (Nag Raj, 2993, Tanaka et al. 2011, Hyde et al. 2020a, b, c). The family contains 32 genera viz Allelochaeta, Annellolacinia, Bartalinia, Broomella, Ciliochorella, Diploceras, Disaeta, Discosia, Distononappendiculata, Diversimediispora, Doliomyces, Heterotruncatella, Hyalotiella, Hymenopleella, Immersidiscosia, Monochaetia, Morinia, Neopestalotiopsis, Nonappendiculata, Parabartalinia, Pestalotiopsis, Pseudopestalotiopsis, Pseudosarcostroma, Robillarda, Sarcostroma, Seimatosporium, Seiridium, Sporocadus, Strickeria, Synnemapestaloides, Truncatella, Xenoseimatosporium (Hyde et al. 2020a, b, c; Tibproma et al. 2020; Wijayawardene et al. 2020).
Bartalinia Tassi, Bulletin Labor. Orto Bot. de R. Univ. Siena 3: 4 (1900)
Bartalinia was introduced by Tassi (1900) and belongs to Sporocadaceae, (Hyde et al. 2020a, b, c; Wijayawardene et al. 2020). Bartalinia is morphologically similar to Heterotruncatella, Hymenopleella, Morinia, Parabartalinia, Pestalotiopsis, Pseudosarcostroma, and Truncatella. The characteristic features of Bartalinia are pycnidial conidiomata and fusiform, 3–4-septate, appendage bearing conidia with an acute or blunt apex (Senanayake et al. 2015). There are 22 Bartalinia species in the Species Fungorum (2022a, b) and a new species B. kevinhydei was introduced by Tibpromma et al. (2021). The generic and species boundaries of Bartalinia-like taxa are complicated due to overlapping morphological characteristics. Liu et al. (2019a, b, c, d) has revised the taxa with appendage-bearing conidia in Sporocadaceae based on morphology and multigene phylogeny. A new genus Parabartalinia was introduced based on Bartalinia-like taxon.
Bartalinia bidenticola Htet, Mapook & K.D. Hyde, sp.nov.
Index Fungorum number: IF559553; Facesoffungi number: FoF10766; Fig. 117
Etymology: The name refers to the host plant from which it was collected Bidens pilosa.
Holotype: MFLU 22-0103
Saprobic on dead stems of Bidens pilosa. Sexual morph: Not observed. Asexual morph: Conidiomata 120–130 × 190–200 μm ( = 123 × 196 μm, n = 5), uniloculate, solitary, immersed to semi-immersed, globose to subglobose. Ostiole absent. Peridium 23–30 μm wide, 3–4 layered, comprised of brown cells of textura globulosa. Conidiogenous cells 1–2 μm wide, filiform, hyaline. Conidia 23–27 × 4–6 µm, ( ± SD = 24.9 ± 0.8 × 4.9 ± 0.3 µm), fusoid to ellipsoid, straight to slightly curved at the apex, 4-septate, constricted ate the septa, brown in three middle cells and hyaline at the basal and apical cells; basal cells 2–4 µm long, hyaline, obconic to conic with a truncate base, thin-walled; three median cells 14–18 µm long, ( ± SD = 15.8 ± 0.8 µm), (second cell from the base pale brown, 6–7 μm long; third cell pale brown, 4–6 μm long; fourth cell pale brown, 4–7 μm long), doliiform, wall rugose, versicoloured; apical cells 3–6 µm long, hyaline, subcylindrical, smooth-walled; with 2–3 tubular appendages (mostly 2), unbranched, filliform (13–)17–24(–24) µm long, ( ± SD = 22.7 ± 2.7 µm); basal appendage single, tubular, unbranched, centric 4–8(–10) µm long.
Culture characteristics: Spores germinating on MEA within 24 h, reaching 50 mm after 7 days at room temperature, irregular, undulate, concentric, flat, leathery surface, grey.
Material examined: Thailand, Chiang Rai Province, Doi Pui, on the dead stems of Bidens pilosa Linn var radiata (Asteraceae), 10 July 2020, Zin Hnin Htet SW35 (MFLU 22-0103, holotype), ex-type living culture (MFLUCC 22-0008).
GenBank numbers: ON715467(LSU), ON715520(ITS).
Notes: Bartalinia bidenticola (MFLUCC 22-0008) resembles Bartalinia in having subcylindrical to fusoid, pale yellow septate conidia, with an apical cell modified into branched appendages. According to the BLASTn results, the closest match for the LSU sequence of Bartalinia bidenticola (MFLUCC 22-0008) was Bartalinia kevinhydei (MFLUCC 12-0384) with 97.32% similarity and the closest match for ITS sequence was Bartalinia pondoensis (CCTU 459) with 98.85% similarity. Phylogenetic analyses of a combined ITS and LSU sequence dataset (Fig. 118) show that Bartalinia bidenticola (MFLUCC 22-0008) is phylogenetically well distinguished and branched off from all other species in Bartalinia with ML = 100% and BYPP = 1.00 support. We, therefore, identify our isolate as a new species which was found from Bidens pilosa.

Holotype: HKAS115853
Associated with leaf-tip spots of Caryota sp. Sexual morph: Not observed. Asexual morph: Coelomycetous. Conidiomata 55–75 × 115–140 μm ( = 62 × 120 μm, n = 15), pycnidial, superficial or rarely erumpent, solitary, scattered, dark brown, uniloculate, conical, glabrous, ostiolate, without a papilla. Conidiomata wall 3–8 μm wide ( = 6 μm, n = 5), comprising several layers of brown, pseudoparenchymatous cells of textura angularis, paler towards the inner layers.

Senanayake, SI 43, (ZHKU 21–0005, paratype), ex-paratype living culture, ZHKUCC 21–0094.
GenBank numbers: ZHKUCC 21–0093 – MZ520792(ITS), MZ520794 (LSU).
ZHKUCC 21–0094 –MZ520793(ITS), MZ520795 (LSU)
Notes: In the combined ITS and LSU gene analysis, Bartalinia caryotae formed a distinct clade with (MP = 100 and BYPP = 1.00) support, basal to B. kevinhydei (Fig. 118). The comparison of the DNA sequence of ITS and LSU loci of Bartalinia caryotae with B. kevinhydei revealed base pair differences of 0.3% and 0.4% respectively. However, Bartalinia caryotae is morphologically different from Bartalinia kevinhydei in having small, conical conidiomata with large, 3–4 unbranched apical appendages (Liu et al. 2019a, b, c, d). Therefore, we introduce Bartalinia caryotae as a novel taxon from leaves of Caryota species and Bartalinia species are rarely reported on monocotyledon plants. Our species forms superficial to erumpent conidiomata on leaves.
Pestalotiopsis Steyaert, Bull. Jard. bot. État Brux. 19: 300 (1949).
Notes: Steyaert (1949), based on the conidial features, divided Pestalotia into three genera, namely Pestalotia, Pestalotiopsis and Truncatella. Species with 5-celled conidia (4-septate) were grouped within Pestalotiopsis. Based on multilocus phylogenetic and morphological analyses of Pestalotiopsis-like species, Maharachchikumbura et al. (2014) divided the complex into three genera: Pestalotiopsis, Neopestalotiopsis and Pseudopestalotiopsis. Pestalotiopsis is characterized by median cells concolourous, i.e. three pale-pigmented median cells. Pestalotiopsis is a complex genus and has considerable phenotypic diversity (Maharachchikumbura et al. 2014). Thus, the identification is complemented with DNA sequence data and phylogenetic analyses based on the combination of three gene regions (ITS, tub2 and tef1) (Jeewon et al. 2003; Maharachchikumbura et al. 2011, 2012, 2013; Geng et al. 2013).
Pestalotiopsis piraubensis V.P. Abreu & O.L. Pereira, sp. nov.
Index Fungorum number: IF556023; Facesoffungi number: FoF04861; Fig. 120
Etymology: Name refers to the city of Piraúba, state of Minas Gerais, Brazil, where the fungus was collected.
Holotype: VIC 44199
Asexual morph: Culture obtained by direct isolation from diseased guava fruits (Fig. 120a). On MEA, conidiomata sporodochial, globose, solitary, semi-immersed, black, exuding globose, dark brown to black conidial masses (Fig. 120d–e). Conidiophores indistinct, reduced to conidiogenous cells. Conidiogenous cells discrete, cylindrical or spathulate, hyaline, smooth-walled, 4–10 × 1.5–3 μm. Conidia fusoid, ellipsoid, straight to slightly curved, 4-septate, 25–33.5 × 5–7.5 μm, basal cell conic, hyaline, smooth and thin-walled, 4.5–7.5 μm long; three median cells doliiform, 15.5–20.5 μm long, minutely verruculose, concolourous, pale brown, septa darker than the rest of the cell (second cell from the base 5–7.5 μm long; third cell 4.5–6.5 μm long; fourth cell 5–7 μm long); apical cell 3.5–6 μm long, hyaline, cylindrical to subcylindrical, thin- and smooth-walled; with 1–3 tubular apical appendages, arising from the apical crest, unbranched, filiform, flexuous 12–25.5 μm long; basal appendage single, tubular, unbranched, centric, 2–6.5 μm long (Fig. 120f–h). Sexual morph: Not observed.
Culture characteristics: Colonies on MEA attaining 43 mm diam after 7 days at 25 °C, with a regular edge, whitish to pale yellow-coloured, with dense aerial mycelium and dark brown to black conidial masses (Fig. 120b). Colonies on PDA attaining 68 mm diam after 7 days at 25 °C, with irregular edge, whitish to pale yellow-coloured, with sparse aerial mycelium on the central surface and dark brown to black conidial masses (Fig. 120c).
Pathogenicity test: The inoculation method used consisted of the wounding of the detached fruits and on these, the mycelium plug, with the mycelial part facing the surface of the fruit was added. Causing fruit rot disease, seven days after the inoculation of healthy ripe guava fruits.
Material examined: Brazil, Minas Gerais, Piraúba, in a commercial orchard, on fruits of Psidium guajava L. (Myrtaceae), 20 January 2014, V.P. Abreu & O.L. Pereira (VIC 44199, holotype), ex-type living culture COAD 2165.
GenBank numbers: MH627381 (ITS), MH643773 (tub2), MH643774 (tef1-α).
Notes: Pestalotiopsis spp. were previously considered opportunistic pathogens that affect stressed plants (Coyier and Roane 1987). Pirone (1978) reported different species of Pestalotiopsis causing leaf spots on a range of ornamentals. However, in recent years, there has been an increase in reports of these pathogens causing widespread damage to several economically important crops (Keith et al. 2006; Ko et al. 2007; Rodrigues et al. 2014; Rosado et al. 2015; Solarte et al. 2018). Therefore, the increase of guava planting areas has contributed to the emergence of several diseases, and there is no data on the environmental requirements of Pestalotiopsis infection on guavas in Brazil, nor any studies on field epidemiology for these diseases or post-harvest management. The topology of the concatenated tree was similar to that of individual trees, thus, only the concatenated tree is presented here (Fig. 121). Molecular data showed that Pestalotiopsis piraubensis COAD 2165 did not group with any other species reported in the literature. Morphologically, P. piraubensis differs from P. trachicarpicola for presenting larger conidia. Pestalotiopsis piraubensis has 1–3 apical appendages and the other species have 2–4 (mostly 3). Pestalotiopsis kenyana and P. biciliata differ from P. piraubensis by having conidiomata pycnidial in culture on PDA. P. photinicola presents smaller conidia (18–24 × 4–5 μm) than P. piraubensis. Although most of the morphological characteristics did not differ so much, the most striking feature of P. piraubensis was the size of the conidiogenous cells, which was much smaller (4–10 × 1.5–3 μm diam), when compared to the other species. Phylogenetic analyses and morphological comparisons support the introduction of P. piraubensis as a new species within this genus. Besides that, this study may be helpful for further studies on the management of guava diseases.
Apiosporaceae K.D. Hyde, J. Fröhl., Joanne E. Taylor & M.E. Barr, in Hyde, Fröhlich & Taylor, Sydowia 50(1): 23 (1998).
Notes: Apiosporaceae was introduced by Hyde et al. (1998), with Apiospora as the type genus. Description of Apiosporaceae has been provided in Hyde et al. (2020a, b, c), wherein the authors listed five genera in this family, Appendicospora, Arthrinium, Dictyoarthrinium and Endocalyx, Nigrospora. However, phylogenetic analysis resulted in the transfer of Dictyoarthrinium and Spegazzinia to Didymosphaeriaceae (Pleosporales) (Tanaka et al. 2015; Samarakoon et al. 2020).
Apiospora Sacc., Atti Soc. Veneto-Trent. Sci. Nat., Padova, Sér. 4 4: 85 (1875).
Notes: Apiospora is characterized by densely arranged perithecia arranged in a longitudinal stroma, clavate to broadly cylindrical asci and apiospores in the sexual morph and Arthrinium-like asexual morph (Hyde et al. 2020a, b, c). Species of this genus commonly live as endophytes, epiphytes, saprobes on grass in Poaceae (Samarakoon et al. 2022). Apiospora and Arthrinium has no clear boundary as to the morphological characteristics. However, Apiospora and Arthrinium sensu stricto were recognized in Apiosporaceae as two independent lineages in this family (Pintos and Alvarado 2021).

Notes: Apiospora guiyangensis was introduced by Samarakoon et al. (2022) from an unidentified Poaceae species in Guizhou, China. Our species colonizing on dead column of Bothriochloa ischaemum (Poaceae) was collected from the same province of type strains of A. guiyangensis. Its sexual morph fits well to the description of A. guiyangensis in the linear stromata with a slit-like opening, immersed, subglobose, gregarious, ascomata and ellipsoid to reniform ascospores. Additionally, the phylogenetic analysis of a combination of ITS-LSU-tef1 -tub2 shows our isolate sisters to A. guiyangensis with ML = 100% and BYPP = 1.00 support (Fig. 123). Thus, we determine our isolate as a new collection of A. guiyangensis and this finding indicates that A. guiyangensis probably specific to Poaceae.
Xylariales Nannf.
Notes: Xylariales belongs to subclass Xylariomycetidae and the placement is confirmed by different phylogenetic and evolutionary studies (Maharachchikumbura et al. 2016; Samarakoon et al. 2016a, b; Hongsanan et al. 2017). The continuous taxonomic studies expand the number of families and genera in Xylariales. Twenty-one families and 183 genera are listed in this order (Konta et al. 2016; Dayarathne et al. 2017; Wijayawardene et al. 2022; Hyde et al. 2020a, b, c).
Diatrypaceae Nitschke, [as 'Diatrypeae'], Verh. naturh. Ver. preuss. Rheinl. 26: 73 (1869).
Notes: Diatrypaceae is a significant family in Xylariales introduced by Nitschke (1869) with the generic type Diatrype (Augusto et al. 2016; Hyde et al. 2020a, b, c; Boonmee et al. 2021). Numerous saprobic, endopytic and pathogenic diatrypaceaous taxa are available in both terrestrial and aquatic habitats worldwide (Dissanayake et al. 2021a, b; Zhu et al. 2021; Wijayawardene et al. 2020). The family is characterized by erumpent or immersed ascostromata that contain 8-spored or polysporous, long pedicel asci with allantoid ascospores in the sexual morph and coelomycetous or hyphomycetous asexual morphs (Konta et al. 2020; Carpouron et al. 2021; Dissanayake et al. 2021a, b). The early identification of Diatrypaceae species were based only on morphology. Currently most studies are performed by using both morphological observations with ITS and tub2 sequence data analyses (Konta et al. 2020; Dissanayake et al. 2021a, b; Wijayawardene et al. 2022). However, many genera of the family are polyphyletic and further taxonomic studies still need to be performed for resolving diatrypaceous taxa (Dissanayake et al. 2021a, b). There are 22 genera in Diatrypaceae with more than 1500 species (Carpouron et al. 2021; Wijayawardene et al. 2020). In this study we discuss a novel host record of Diatrypella species collected from Russia.
Diatrypella (Ces. & De Not.) De Not., Sfer. Ital.: 29 (1863)
Diatrypella was established to constitute stromatic Sphaeriales with ovoid and multi spored asci (Croxall 1950, Carpouron et al. 2021). Diatrypella was introduced by Cesati and De Notaris (1863) and typified D. verruciformis. The genus is characterized by a libertella-like coelomycetous asexual morph. In the sexual morph, conical to truncate and discoid, cushion-like stromata are delimited by black zones on the substrates, umbilicate or sulcate ostiolar necks, long-stalked, cylindrical and polysporous asci with allantoid, hyaline or yellowish ascospores (Kirk et al. 2008; Dissanayake et al. 2020; Hyde et al. 2020a, b, c). Recently several Diatrypella species were introduced by different authors from different hosts (Dissanayake et al. 2020; Hyde et al. 2020a, b, c; Zhu et al. 2021). There are 84 records under Diatrypella in Species Fungorum (2022a, b) while, only 24 taxa have molecular data in GenBank. We follow the latest treatment for Diatrypaceae in Boonmee et al. (2021) to resolve the taxonomic placements of our strain and updated phylogenetic tree is presented in Fig. 124. In this study, we discuss a new collection of Diatrypella quercina from Russia.

Material examined: Russia, Sochi, Khostinsky City District, the territory of Subtropic Scientific Centre of Russia Academy of on a dead branch of Quercus petraea subsp. polycarpa (Schur) Soó (syn. Q. colchica Czeczott, Q. iberica Steven ex M. Bieb.) (Fagaceae), Timur S. Bulgakov, 4 August 2018, T-7330 (MFLU 18–1865).
GenBank number: ON705330 (ITS), ON713468 (tub2).
Notes: Ruhland (1900) considered Diatrypella quercina as a species in Diatrype because of strongly developed ectostromata. Later, Wehmeyer (1926) discussed the possibility of including this taxon in Diatrype. Croxall (1950) distinguished D. quercina from other Diatrypella species because of its strongly curved ascospores. Cryptovalsa and Diatrypella also have polysporous asci and cannot easily be distinguished, based on morphological comparisons (Acero et al. 2004; Vasilyeva and Stephenson 2005; Dissanayake et al. 2021a, b). A number of taxonomic studies have been done for D. quercina species based on morphological observations from different countries in the world (Farr and Rossman 2022). Adamčíková et al. (2011) reported the records of Libertella quercina based on their morphology on Castanea sativa from Slovakia. Libertella quercina was also reported on bark of Quercus in England and France (Grove 1937; Adamčíková et al. 2011). Saccardo (1906) described Cytosporina quercina (basionym Libertella quercina) on branches of Quercus and Castanea in Italy, France, and Germany and later, the taxon was identified as the asexual morph of Diatrypella quercina (Grove 1937). Popov et al. (2008) reported D. quercina on Quercus robur from Russia based on morphology while our strain MFLU 18–1865, was from Q. petraea subsp. polycarpa is also known as Georgian, or Colchician oak—the native oak species for western Caucasus. However, no genetic studies were reported from Russia for this taxon. There were only two studies providing molecular data for the species from Spain (on Quercus faginea) (Acero et al. 2004; Vu et al. 2019 taken from GenBank 2022). We provided a comprehensive taxonomic study for D. quercina based on their morpho-molecular and phylogenetic analyses. In our phylogenetic analyses our strain (MFLU 18–1865) grouped with other isolates of D. quercina (CBS 108.18 and DL30M) in Clade B, with 85% MLBS, 0.95 BYPP support. Also, our strain forms a sister lineage to CBS 108.18 and grouped with high bootstrap support (95% ML). In comparison of base pair differences between CBS 108.18 and DL30M (D. quercina), 6 bp differences (1.16%) have revealed by 513 nucleotides in ITS region while tub2 regions are not available. However, we provided tub2 sequence data for D. quercina in this study. We revealed 1 and 5 pb differences from 515 nucleotides (0.19% and 0.97%) in ITS regions when comparing our strain (MFLU 18–1865) with CBS 108.18 and DL30M respectively. Trimen et al. (1866, https://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/page/16233050) provided incomplete morphology for the taxa and these characters are matched with the morphology of our strain. Based on referred morpho-molecular data we conclude that our stain should be another collection of D. quercina from Russia. This is the first genetic study on D. quercina in Russia with detailed morphology and it is also the new host record on Q. petraea subsp. polycarpa. However, detailed morphological studies are suggested in future for this taxon (Figs. 124, 125).
Hypoxylaceae DC., in Lamarck & de Candolle, Fl. franç., Edn 3 (Paris) 2: 280 (1805)
Xylariales comprises with 26 families. Xylariaceae and Hypoxylaceae are two of the most diverse families in this order. Hypoxylaceae is represented by 16 genera including which comprises sexual morphs 16 and asexual morphs 11 genera (Wijayawardene et al. 2022). Hypoxylaceae are distributed in tropical, subtropical regions (Lambert et al. 2019), known for its huge species diversity and abundant bioactive secondary metabolites (Helaly et al. 2018) and plays an important ecological role in protecting host plants from pathogens (Song et al. 2022). The family is characterised by carbonised stromatal tissue. Stromata surface is usually blackened when mature, olivaceous, with %10 KOH are purplish or orange. Ostioles that are always higher than the level of stromatal surface (Cruz et al. 2021).
Hypoxylon Bull., Hist. Champ. Fr. (Paris) 1(1): 168 (1791)
Hypoxylon was introduced by Bulliard, that contains primarily saprotrophs and endophytes of angiospermous plants. The type genus Hypoxylon is the largest genus in the Hypoxylaceae, with more than 200 species (Pourmoghaddam et al. 2020). Members of the genus have a worldwide distribution, but they display a higher diversity in the tropics and subtropics (Kuhnert et al. 2014). In the twentieth century, the generic concept of Hypoxylon was based only on morphological characteristics (Ju and Rogers 1996). Currently, morphological, phylogenetic, and chemotaxonomic evidence, has also been used to infer species limits in inter- and intra-genera in Hypoxylaceae (Sir et al. 2016). Hypoxylon is quite common in China; however, the occurrence of the species in China has not been confirmed by molecular phylogenetic analyses, and the species diversity and distribution of the genus in China are unclear (Hyde et al. 2020a, b, c). The aims of this study were to confirm the taxonomic status of the new species, explore the species diversity of Hypoxylon, and infer the evolutionary relationships of Hypoxylon.

GenBank numbers: ON329812 (ITS).
Notes: Based on the multi-gene phylogenetic results, our specimen is closely related to Hypoxylon delonicis (Perera et al. 2020). Based on morphology, our strain differes from Hypoxylon delonicis by having wider asci and shorter and woder ascospores. Based on a megablast search of the NCBIs nucleotide database using the multi-gene sequence, the highest similarities ITS (GenBank KU683766; Identities = 480/541(89%), Gaps = 17/541(3%)), tub2 (GenBank AY951740; Identities = 1126/1265(89%), other species of Hypoxylon delonicis with strong bootstrap support (82/0.99, Fig. 127). We identified Hypoxylon inaequale as a new species of Hypoxylon.
Xylariaceae Tul. & C. Tul. [as 'Xylariei'], Select. fung. carpol. (Paris) 2: 3 (1863).
Notes: Xylariaceae is the type and largest family of Xylariales (Hyde et al. 2020a, b, c). Number of genera in this family has been subjected to multiple revision in different articles. Kirk et al. (2001) and Eriksson (2007) estimated that there are 75 genera and about 800 species in Xylariaceae. Hyde et al. (2020a, b, c) counted 32 genera in this family and provided notes for each accepted genus. Wijayawardene et al. (2022) listed 38 genera in Xylariaceae, without giving supported annotation. Xylariaceae can live as saprobes, pathogens, or endophytes, habiting wood, leaves and fruits (Hyde et al. 2020a, b, c). Xylariaceae is characterized by perithecia embedded in erect, applanate or effuse-pulvinate, dark-coloured stromata, cylindrical asci with an amyloid apical ring, brown to black, 1–2-celled, ellipsoidal, subglobose or reniform, with with germ slits or pores (Tang et al. 2009; Maharachchikumbura et al. 2016; Hyde et al. 2020). Xylariaceae was divided into two subfamilies including Xylaroideae and Hypoxyloideae based on their respective anamorphic types, their stromatal pigments and secondary metabolites. Xylaroideae generally is considered to comprise species with Nodulisporium-type anamorph and KOH+ stromatal pigments, while it is Geniculosporium-type and KOH− in Hypoxyloideae. Multigene phylogenetic analysis based on LSU, SSU and rpb2 sequence well reflect these two subfamilies (Samarakoon et al. 2016a, b).
Astrocystis Berk. & Broome, J. Linn. Soc., Bot. 14(no. 74): 123 (1873) [1875].
Notes: Astrocystis was introduced by Berkeley and Broome (1850) and typified by Astrocystis mirabilis. Index fungorum (2022a, b) lists 28 epithets in Astrocystis, while four of them have been excluded from this genus. Species of this genus mainly exist in saprobes on monocotyledonous substrates, such as bamboo, palm and Smilax (Laessøe and Spooner 1993). Astrocystis is characterized by uni- to multi-peritheciate stromata, carbonaceous peridium, asci with a relatively short stipe and small, amyloid, stopper-shaped ascal ring (Pinnoi et al. 2010). It is widely accepted that Astrocystis bear similar morphology with Rosellinia, while the former genus can be distinguished from the latter by small and cylindrical or funnel-shaped apical ring of asci. Rosellinia has conspicous, barrel-shaped apical apparatus (Dulymamode et al. 1998).

Notes: Astrocystis bambusicola has been reported on bamboo column from China and Thailand (Hyde et al. 2017, 2020a, b, c). Our isolate phylogenentically groups with Astrocystis bambusicola with great support (100% ML/1.00 BYPP, Fig. 129). Morphologically our isolate bears resemblance with Astrocystis bambusicola in the subglobose, black, superficial ascomata, carbonaceous peridium, cylindrical asci with J+ apical ring and reniform, dark brown to black ascospores with a germ-slit. We introduce our isolate as a new host record species of Astrocystis bambusicola from Microstegium sp. in Guizhou Province, China.
Xylaria Hill ex Schrank, Baier. Fl. (München) 1: 200 (1786).
Notes: Xylaria is one of the largest genera in Xylariaceae and it includes more than 600 species (Hyde et al. 2020a, b, c; Boonmee et al. 2021). Its occurrence in diverse environments shows its unique role as saprobes, endophytes and as plant pathogens (Edwards et al. 2003; Ju et al. 2018; Hyde et al. 2020a, b, c). Xylaria species mostly have long stalked thread-like macro structures. A few species of this genus coexist with plants as endophytes (Chen et al.2013), which may later turn into saprobes (Promputtha et al. 2007) when plants die. They also extend their habits as coprophilous and endolichenic (Piasai and Manoch 2009; Cañón et al. 2019). Most Xylaria species also serve as economically important compound producers (Ratnaweera et al. 2014; Adeleke and Babalola 2021; Wangsawat et al. 2021; Becker and Stadler 2021), which act as antibacterial, antifungal and/or biocontrol agents. Therefore, there is a need for the discovery of novel species and new geographical records of this genus. Annually ten or more, new species are introduced to this genus. For instance, in 2020, ten new species were discovered and in the next year, 15 species were discovered (Index Fungorum 2022a, b) by morphology and molecular data.

Notes: Agaricaceae was erected by Chevallier (1826) based on the type genus Agaricus L. Previously, this family contained only gilled fungi. However, research-based on molecular data transferred many non-gilled fungal families such as Lycoperdaceae, Nidulariaceae and Tulostomataceae to Agaricaceae. Now, it is represented by more than 1300 species belonging to 85 genera (Kirk et al. 2008; He et al. 2019; Wijayawardene et al. 2022). Some gasteroid pufball genera included in the Agaricaceae are Arachnion Schwein., Bovista Pers., Calvatia Fr. and Lycoperdon Pers.
Chlorophyllum Massee, Bull. Misc. Inf., Kew (no. 138): 135 (1898).
Chlorophyllum (Agaricaceae, Agaricales) was introduced by Massee (1898) with C. molybdites (G. Mey.) Massee as the type species. Chlorophyllum species are widely distributed in tropical, subtropical, and temperate areas throughout the world as saprobes (Ge and Yang 2006; Kirk et al. 2008; Crous et al. 2015a, b, c; Ge et al. 2018; Dutta et al. 2020). This genus is characterized by agaricoid, secotioid or sequestrate habits, a hymenidermal pileus covering and smooth stipe, white, green or brown basidiospores either lacking a germ pore or with a germ pore that is caused by a depression in the episporium (Ge and Yang 2006; Vellinga 2002, 2003a, 2004; Crous et al. 2015a, b, c; Loizides et al. 2020). Most Chlorophyllum species are known to be poisonous (Vellinga and de Kok 2002; Leudang et al. 2017). There are 28 accepted species of Chlorophyllum in Index Fungorum (2022a, b). Chlorophyllum is divided into six infrageneric sections: Chlorophyllum Massee, Ellipsoidospororum Z.W. Ge, Endoptychorum (Czern.) Z.W. Ge, Parvispororum Z.W. Ge, Rhacodium Z.W. Ge and Sphaerospororum Z.W. Ge based on morphological and phylogenetic analyses (Ge et al. 2018). Only four Chlorophyllum species, C. globosum (Mossebo) Vellinga, C. hortense (Murrill) Vellinga, C. molybdites (G. Mey.) Massee and C. rhacodes (Vittad.) Vellinga, have been reported from Thailand (Chandrasrikul et al. 2011; Leudang et al. 2017; Ge et al. 2018; Sysouphanthong et al. 2021; Suwannarach et al. 2022).

Notes: Chlorophyllum squamulosum belongs to the Chlorophyllum section Rhacodium based on a combination of morphological and molecular data (Fig. 133). Morphologically, C. squamulosum is similar to C. nothorhacodes, C. rhacodes, C. olivieri and C. brunneum by its brownish to reddish colouration of the stipe upon bruising, truncated basidiospores and clavate cheilocystidia. The phylogenetic tree indicated that C. squamulosum formed a sister taxon to C. nothorhacodes. However, C. nothorhacodes differs from C. squamulosum by its much larger basidiocarp (pileus of up to 280 mm in diam. and stipe up to 250 mm × 25–60 mm) (Vellinga 2003a). Furthermore, C. rhacodes differs from C. squamulosum by its broader basidiospores (9.8–11.1 × 6.3–7.7 μm), comparatively larger cheilocystidia (16–43 × 8.5–25 μm) and the presence of clamp connections in the basidia, cystidia and tramal hyphae (Vellinga 2001, 2003b). Chlorophyllum olivieri has clamped basidia and broader cheilocystidia (35–45 μm) when compared with C. squamulosum (Vellinga 2001). Chlorophyllum brunneum differs from C. squamulosum by the presence of clamp connections at the base of the basidia and cystidia (Bougher and Syme 1998; Vellinga 2002, 2003a).
Lepiota (Pers.) Gray, Nat. Arr. Brit. Pl. (London) 1: 601 (1821).
Lepiota belongs to Agaricaceae, and is consisted of 450 species (He et al. 2019). Vellinga (2001) accepted Lepiota for six sections based on the morphology, which are Sect. Echinatae Fay., Sect. Fuscovinaceae Bon & Candusso, Sect. Lepiota (Pers.) Gray, Sect. Lilaceae M. Bon, Sect. Ovisporae (J.E. Lange) Kühner and Section Stenosporae (J.E. Lange) Kühner. However, the genus is not monophyletic according to many molecular studies (Vellinga 2003a, b; Liang et al. 2011; Hou and Ge 2020). In this study, three species of Lepiota are recorded for the first time in Laos, and a new species is described from Thailand.

Material examined: Laos, Oudomxay Province, Xay District, Houay Houm Village, N 20° 32′ 00.67″, E 101° 53′ 48. 17.16″. 917 m., 15 June 2014, P. Sysouphanthong, PS2014-1465 (HNL503136); ibidem, 20 July 2014, P. Sysouphanthong, PS2014-1480 (HNL503151).
Habitat and distribution: solitary or grow in a small cluster with few basidiomes, on dead leaves and humus soil, saprotrophic. The species was only reported from tropical regions viz. Sri Lanka (Pegler 1972), India (Kumar and Manimohan 2009), China and Hong Kong (Liang et al. 2011), Tanzania (Pegler 1977), Thailand (Sysouphanthong et al. 2012). This is the first report of L. metulispora in northern Laos.
GenBank numbers: HNL503136–MT436261 (ITS).
HNL503151–MT436262 (ITS).
Notes: Lepiota metulispora has a trichodermal pileus covering and penguin-shaped basidiospores, and it is placed in the section Lepiota (Vellinga 2001). The species is widespread in tropical countries. Lao specimens were found in the mature stage, colour of squamules on pileus is paler than Thai specimens, but the morphology is identical (Sysouphanthong et al. 2012). The type specimen of the species from Sri Lanka is closer to Lao and Thai specimens in morphology, but basidiospores are slightly larger and cheilocystidia are undetermined (Pegler 1972). Liang et al. (2011) studied the type material from Sri Lanka and compared it with the Chinese specimen, and the type specimen has a smaller basidiospore size. However, it seems that the size of basidiospores is not much different in all specimens found in China, Laos, Sri Lanka and Thailand; and the morphology and size can be minorly different in different specimens. According to the analysis of nrITS sequence data (Fig. 136), Lao specimens are identical to specimens from China with high (100%) bootstrap support.
Lepiota thrombophora from Thailand is most similar to L. metulispora in morphology, but differ in smaller basidiospores size (10–14 × 3–5 μm) (Hyde et al. 2021); and the type specimen of L. thrombophora from Sri Lanka is different in dark brown squamules on pileus and shorter elements of pileus covering (25–100 × 5–15 µm). Liang et al. (2011) described L. thrombophora from China, based on its longer elements (up to 330 µm long). The analysis of nrITS sequence data showed that Chinese and Thai specimens of L. thrombophora are identical, and related to L. metulispora (Fig. 136). The type specimen of L. attenuata from China is closer to L. metulispora in morphology but differs in much longer elements on pileus covering (231 µm long), and basidiospores are more attenuated at the apex (Liang et al. 2011). Thai specimens of L. attenuata from Thailand have longer and typically attenuate elements (300 µm long) (Hyde et al. 2021). Other similar species to L. metulispora were discussed in Sysouphanthong et al. (2012).

Notes: Lepiota pongduadensis is a new record from Laos; two Lao specimens were collected from Oudomxay Province of northern Laos, and they show similar morphology and nrITS sequences to the type specimen (Fig. 136). Lepiota pongduadensis was originally described from Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai Provinces of northern Thailand. The species is placed in the section Lepiota by Sysouphanthong et al. (2012) and is distinguished from other species in the section. Only a few species are similar to L. pongduadensis (Sysouphanthong et al. 2012). Lepiota attenuata, the type specimens from China, is similar to L. pongduadensis in morphology, but different in lacking a dark brown surface on umbo, lighter colour of squamules on pileus, and stipe covering (brownish-yellow to yellowish-brown), larger basidiospores (14.5–19 × 4–5.5 mm), shorter elements of pileus covering (80–231 × 3.8–13 mm) (Liang et al. 2011).

Note: Lepiota subthailandica has a tiny basidioma, a trichodermal structure of pileus covering and ellipsoid ovoid basidiospores; and the species is located in Lepiota sect. Ovidsporae (J.E. Lange) Kühner (Vellingar 2001). In the same section, Lepiota subthailandica is very similar to L. thailandica Sysouph., K.D. Hyde, J.C. Xu & P.E. in morphology; and they are widespread in the same location of Chiang Mai, northern Thailand. However, L. thailandica has smaller basidiomata (3–4 mm diam. in pileus), utriform and fusiform cheilocystidia, and shorter elements of pileus covering (55–95 × 5.5–22 µm) (Sysouphanthong et al. 2016). The second species, L. microcarpa Sysouph., K.D. Hyde & Vellinga, is similar in micromorphology with L. subthailandica. However, L. microcarpa has penguin-shaped basidiospores, and belongs to sect. Lepiota (Sysouphanthong et al. 2012). Based on the nrITS sequences analysis, two samples of L. subthailandica are not related to L. thailandica, and are separated from other species in the sect. Ovisporae (Fig. 136).

Notes: Lepiota subvenenata was described from Yunnan province of Southwest China. It is closely related to L. venenata Z. H. Chen & Zhu L. Yang in morphology. Lao specimens clustered with the type specimens in the nrITS phylogenetic analyses and share similar morphology (Fig. 136).
Atheliales Jülich.
Atheliales is an order mostly composed of corticioid fungi (Sulistyo et al. 2021). Based on phylogenetic analyses Sulistyo et al. (2021) accepted five families: Atheliaceae, Byssocorticiaceae, Lobuliciaceae, Pilodermataceae, and Tylosporaceae in this order. However, Wijayawardene et al. (2022) accepted only Atheliaceae and Lobuliciaceae in this order.
Atheliaceae Jülich, Biblthca Mycol. 85: 355 (1982) [1981].
This is the type family of Atheliales. Jülich (1982) included the genera Athelopsis, Caerulicium, Confertobasidium, Leptosporomyces, and Luellia in Atheliaceae.Wijayawardene et al. (2022) accepted 20 genera in this family. Atheliaceae mainly consists with saprotrophic taxa, with one lichenicolous species (Athelia arachnoidea) (Sulistyo et al. 2021).
Athelia Pers., Traité champ. Comest. (Paris): 57 (1818).
Athelia is a genus of corticioid fungi. Some species are facultative parasites of plants and of lichens (Sulistyo et al. 2021). A species of Athelia also engaged in a symbiotic relationship with termites (Reticulitermes), in which the fungus forms sclerotia that mimic termite eggs and worker termites handling the sclerotia as if they were eggs (Matsuura et al. 2005).

Pathogenic on roots and stem of Lablab purpureus. Sexual morph: not observed. Asexual morph: numerous globoid sclerotial bodies were developed on the collar region of infected Lablab purpureus plants at the stem soil interface. Sclerotia measured 1–3 mm in diam. (n = 50), initially whitish and later turned to brownish upon maturity.
Cultural characteristics: On PDA, reaching 90 mm at 28 °C after 7 d in 12/12 h light/dark, dense white fluffy colonies developed rapidly over the culture plates and produced characteristic sclerotia near the edges of plates and on the upper lid surface. After, 12–15 days of incubation sclerotia were recorded per plate ranging to 180 – 490 (mean 358 ± 24, n = 20). Colonies on PDA reaching 90 mm at 28 °C after 14 d in 12/12 dark, colonies appeared white to pink with abundant aerial mycelium.
Material examined: India, Karnataka, Mysore, Doddamaragowdanahally, on infected plants of Lablab purpureus (L.) Sweet (Fabaceae), 17 April 2013, S. Mahadevakumar (UOM-Sr-13–4), living culture Sr-LP3.
Habitat: Wide range of hosts (Farr and Rossman 2022), Lablab purpureus (This study).
Distribution: Brazil, China, Cuba, Fiji, New Zealand, Panama, Papua New Guinea, Phillippines, South Africa, Spain, Sri Lanka, West Indies and USA (Farr and Rossman 2022), India (This study).
GenBank number: KJ002765 (ITS).
Notes: The characteristic foot-rot and leaf blight disease of Lablab purpureus are reported in the present study and the diagnostic features are presented. The disease was observed at all stages of plant growth. In the early infection stage, the collar rot affected seedlings collapsed. Initial symptoms appeared as tan water-soaked lesions usually near the stem-soil interface, with lesions that enlarged and expanded towards the shoot apex, causing rotting. Similarly, lesions expanded towards the roots causing root decay and death of the host plant. The pathogen produced numerous globoid sclerotial bodies over the surface of the host plants. The cabbage heads' rotting was recorded with sclerotia development over the head surface. The disease was most prevalent during the rainy season. In dry weather, infected tissues showed the presence of mycelial threads with very few hard, melanized sclerotial bodies. In USDA host fungal database, the record 51387 specifies a geographical record for India, which shows the sequences submitted by our group to GenBank in 2013 and referred by Paul et al. (2017), a new geographical record for Athelia rolfsii on Ipomoea batatas from Korea. Based on the morphological, and cultural characteristics and ITS-rDNA analysis, the fungal pathogen was identified as Athelia rolfsii (Fig. 145). This is the first report on the association of A. rolfsii causing root rot and leaf blight disease in L. purpureus from India and worldwide.
Hymenochaetales Oberw.
The concept of hymenochaetaceous fungi was initiated by Patouillard (1900) in Série des Igniaires, which includes xanthochoroid polypores with simple, clampless hyphae and setal elements. Later, Oberwinkler (1977) raised the order Hymenochaetales, based on the characteristics of the Hymenochaetoidae, Hymenochaetaceae (proposed earlier by Donk (1948)). Hymenochaetales comprises with homobasidiomycetes with diverse basidiomatal characters, annual to perennial, resupinate to pileate, stipitate to spathulate with smooth, poroid or hydnoid hymenophore. Microscopically, simple, clampless, mono to di or trimitic hyphal system with smooth to ornamented, thin to thick-walled, hyaline to coloured, globose to cylindrical basidiospores are characteristic features. The presence or absence of sterile elements such as cystidia, cystidioles or seate also plays a vital role in identification (Fiasson and Niemela 1984).
MycoBank recorded 19 associated families (http://www.mycobank.org) whereas 1530 taxa were submitted in GenBank (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov) (as of 17 January 2022). Wijayawardene et al. (2022) accepted six families in this order.
Hymenochaetaceae Donk, Bull. Bot. Gdns Buitenz. 17(4): 474 (1948).
Donk (1948) classified the xanthochroid Aphyllophorales under Hymenochaetaceae which comprises wood-decaying white-rot fungi and medicinal fungi with styrylpyrone pigments (which are responsible for a positive xanthochoric reaction) (Dai et al. 2007, 2009). Hymenochaetaceae are described by yellow to deep brown, resupinate to pileate or stipitate basidiomata with smooth to hydnoid hymenial surface, simple mono to dimitic hyphal system, presence or absence of setae, thin to thick-walled, hyaline or coloured basidiospores (Ryvarden 1991; Dai 2010). Sharma (1995) reported 16 genera and 91 species of Hymenochaetaceae under Indian Aphyllophorales. Hymenochaetaceae is one of the largest families in Basidiomycota (Kirk et al. 2008). Dai (2010) mentioned Phellinus sensu lato, Inonotus sensu lato and Hymenochaete as the three largest genera of Hymenochaetaceae. There are 71 associated genera documented in MycoBank (http://www.mycobank.org) and 1,103 taxa submitted in GenBank (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov) (as of 1 January 2022). Wijayawardene et al. (2022) accepted 42 genera in this family.
Coltricia Gray, Nat. Arr. Brit. Pl. (London) 1: 644 (1821).
The genus is typified by C. perennis (L.) Murrill. Species of this genus are cosmopolitan and have few species that have been found to be associated with plant roots (Tedersoo et al. 2007). Coltricia is characterized by poroid and stipitate basidiocarps, a monomitic hyphal system lacking clamp connections and coloured, ellipsoid to subglobose, smooth basidiospores (Dai 2010). Wijayawardene et al. (2022) accepted 40 species in this genus.
Coltricia insularis P.-A. Moreau, Bellanger, Loizides & A. Rinaldi, sp. nov.
Index Fungorum number IF900072; Faceoffungi number FoF13395; Fig. 146
Etymology. Insularis = of islands, a Latin adjective referring to Corsica, Cyprus and Sardinia, three Mediterranean islands in which the species was discovered.
Holotype: LIP 0401817
Pileus 15–60 mm, irregularly infundibuliform, rough, sometimes weakly lobed, subtomentose or more distinctly tomentose to subhirsute towards the centre, radially corrugated or furrowed and usually with well-defined concentric chromatic zones; colours ranging from brown, red-brown, grey-brown, purple, umber or ochraceous; margin often paler and somewhat undulating. Hymenial surface poroid, comprised of adnexed to irregularly decurrent, shallow, angular, or somewhat elongated pores, mostly 2–3 per mm, becoming poorly defined towards the margin and sometimes fusing to form sterile tomentose patches or a sterile marginal zone; warm grey to buff or ochraceous. Stipe 20–40 × 3–8 mm, usually irregularly furrowed, densely tomentose, buff or pale brown at the apex but quickly staining ochraceous or brown, darker chestnut to red-brown or orange-brown lower, deeply submerged into the substrate and often with sand and litter tightly adhered to it. Context corky, thick and indistinctly zonate in the pileus, darker in the stipe, chestnut to red-brown or umber.
Spores (6.8) 7.5–9 (10.2) × 3.2–3.9 (4.1) µm, ellipsoid to broadly ellipsoid or ovoid when immature, cylindrical to fusiform when projected, with a light supra-apicular depression, pale yellow in KOH and in Melzer’s, wall < 0.3 µm thick, smooth. Basidia 12–19 × 7–7.5 µm, 4-spored (partly 2-spored on immature specimens) with spindle-shaped straight sterigmata, shortly cylindrical, hyaline. Hymenophoral setae absent. Edges sterile, made of bunches of slender thin-walled hairs 2.3–3 µm wide, encrusted with yellowish granular deposits. Pileipellis 60–80 µm-thick, convoluted trichocutis, made of generative hyphae 3.5–6(7) µm wide, terminal elements 45–80 µm long, branching often with right-angled furcations, rounded to mucronate at the apex. Stipitipellis a trichocutis made of flexuose, mostly unbranched skeletoid hairs, 70–180 × 3.5–5.5 µm, with occasional secondary septa; wall smooth or with few hyaline mucoid deposits towards the apex, 0.8–1.2 µm thick, yellow in 5% KOH; apex rounded. Clamps absent from all observed septa. Smell weak, faintly acidic.
Habitat and Distribution: Associated with Cistaceae (Cistus spp., Halimium halimifolium) shrubs in dry, sandy places. So far collected from Cyprus, France (Corsica), Italy (Sardinia) and Spain (Andalucia), but probably widespread in xerothermic localities throughout the Mediterranean basin.

Notes: Coltricia insularis is a xerophilic Mediterranean species characteristic of Cistaceae shrublands, found especially among sands, where it may grow in dense clusters adhered to the bases of rockroses. Also known from the thermo-mediterranean zone in Cyprus and the supramediterranean zone in Andalucia, where a slenderer form of this species was collected on sandy ground, at the edge of a pine forest. In Sardinia, it occurs in pure Halimium stands in coastal areas. However, in places where more potential hosts are present, it might be part of the extensive ectomycorrhizal networks that are common in several Mediterranean ecological settings (Taudiere et al. 2015; Leonardi et al. 2020). From what is known about Coltricia mycorrhizal biology, members of the genus appear to establish ectomycorrhizal associations with a range of hosts (Rinaldi et al. 2008). Coltricia insularis phylogenetically belongs to the group of Coltricia perennis, which has not been the object of monographic revision since the advent of DNA studies. The phylogenetic analysis (Fig. 147) shows the unexpected diversity unravelled in this lineage, in which at least three main subclades can be identified among the available sequences in GenBank and UNITE. Most of these are devoid of Linnaean names and the need of typification of C. perennis itself (type of the genus) is obvious, considering this name has been arbitrarily applied to nearly all sequences available in the’Perennis-clade’. Coltricia montagnei Fr. (in Montagne 1836, p. 341), originally described from Northern France (Ardennes, near Sedan), has been variously interpreted and was only recently described in detail (Rivoire 2020). Coltricia confluens Keizer (1997, p. 389), from which the isotype collection Keizer 93060 was kindly provided by the author, but unfortunately, could not be sequenced. Coltricia insularis differs from all currently recognized European species by spore dimensions and shape: mature specimens display spores with an average Q of around 2.3 and a typical fusiform profile. Like C. perennis and C. confluens (but not C. montagnei), the hyphae of pileipellis are frequently T-branched, but the taxonomic importance of this feature requires further observations. Coltricia’confluens’ and a sister Mexican species (Fig. 147), represent an independent well-supported clade. Amongst the subclade 3 (Fig. 147), C. insularis has an American sister species (sequences ITS MH211968 and MK966429 from pine forests in Oregon); both sequences form a well-supported subclade, distinct from the two other subclades of Clade 3 representing apparently circumboreal North European, North American and Asian species. None of the collections available in these clades suggests a thermophilic or xerophilic Mediterranean origin. A detailed revision of collections representing each clade is required before a thorough comparison of this cluster of species with C. insularis and within the whole “Perennis-clade” can be made.
Fulvifomes Murrill, Northern Polypores (5): 49 (1914).
Fulvifomes (typified as Fulvifomes robiniae Murrill) was described by Murrill (1914) to include perennial, sessile, ungulate, woody xanthochoroid fungus with dimitic hyphal system, colored basidiospores and lacks setae. Earlier Fulvifomes was treated as a synonym of Phellinus Quél. (Ryvarden and Johansen 1980; Dai 1999) later, many validated the generic rank of Fulvifomes, by studying the macro-microscopical description, nuclear behaviour and molecular data (Fiasson and Niemelä 1984; Wagner and Fischer 2002). Fulvifomes was revaluated and extensive ranges of characteristics were added to the classical description which includes annual to perennial, resupinate to pileate, applanate to ungulate, smooth to rimose basidiomata, homogenous to duplex context and poroid hymenial layer with mono-dimitic to dimitic hyphal system, presence or absence of setae, cystidioles, smooth, thick-walled, colored, globose to ellipsoid, cyanophilic to acyanophilic and inamyloid basidiospores (Murrill 1914; Wagner and Fischer 2002; Dai 2010; Salvador-Montoya et al. 2018; Tchoumi et al. 2020). Salvador-Montoya et al. (2018) and Zheng et al. (2021) proposed keys to American and Chinese Fulvifomes spp., respectively, since few samplings were done in other parts of the world.
Approximately 331 sequences belonging to 50 taxa were submitted in NCBI (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov) and 65 associated taxa are available in MycoBank (http://www.mycobank.org) (as of 1 January 2022). Wijayawardene et al. (2022) accepted 33 species in this genus.

Specimen examined: India, Tamil Nadu, Thiruvannamalai district, Jawadhu hills, Jamunamarathur, 12.64° 54′ 19.1″ N 79° 18′ 33″ E, on living angiosperm tree (Albizia amara (Roxb.) Boiv., Fabaceae), 09 February 2018, Kezhocuyi Kezo (MUBL4011, holotype).
GenBank numbers: MW040079 (ITS), MW048886 (LSU), MW690924 (tef1).
Notes: Fulvifomes jawadhuvensis shares similarities with F. grenadensis by having dimidiate to ungulate pileus, round to obtuse margin, absences of cystidioles, but the former lacks distinct crust after velvety pileus wears off and no. of pores per mm. Larger broadly ellipsoid to subglobose spores in F. jawadhuvensis differ from smaller spores in F. grenadensis (4–6 × 3–4 µm) (Ryvarden 2004). The new Indian species share other common characteristics with F. elaeodendri, F. hainanensis, F. thailandicus, in having dimidiate to ungulate basidiomata, zonate pileus with rimose patten (except F. hainanensis), pores per mm, distinctly thick-walled, colored basidiospores, absence of setae, but significantly varies basidiospores size and absences of cystidioles (Zhou 2014; Tchoumi et al. 2020). Fulvifomes jawadhuvensis and F. centroamericanus share only dimidiate pilei and absences of cystidioles and differ in other features; the former varies entirely from F. krugiodendrii (Ji et al. 2017). Fulvifomes jawadhuvensis shows variations with F. nonggangensis and F. tubogeneratus in basidiomata characters and microscopic illustrations (Zheng et al. 2021).

Notes: Fulvifomes malaiyanurensis is similar to F. thailandicus (Zhou 2015) in sharing yellowish-brown, broadly attached basidiomata, pore, dimitic hyphal and absence of cystidioles. However, F. malaiyanurensis is distinct by having ungulate to triquetrous, yellowish-brown, velutinate basidiocarp, acyanophilic subglobose basidiospores, lacking cystidioles. Fulvifomes malaiyanurensis differs from F. grenadensis (Ryvarden 2004), F. hainanensis (Zhou 2014) and F. imbricatus (Zhou 2015) in pileus character, pore per mm, shape and size of basidiospore. F. malaiyanurensis share a similar pileial character with F. robinae (Salvador-Montoya et al. 2018) but differs in hyphal system and basidiospore but shares pores/mm. Fulvifomes malaiyanurensis shares similarities with F. elaeodendri and F. yoroui in triquetrous up to ungulate basidiomata and pores per mm (Tchoumi et al. 2020; Olou et al. 2019) and differs in other characters. Macroscopically, F. malaiyanurensis may resemble African (Tchoumi et al. 2020), Asian (Zhou 2014, 2015; Liu et al. 2020; Du et al. 2021) and American (Ji et al. 2017) known species but shows variation in other taxonomic characters.

GenBank numbers: MZ221598 (ITS), MZ221600 (LSU).
Notes: Fulvifomes thiruvannamalaiensis, characterized by perennial, solitary, dimidiate, applanate to ungulate basidiomes, significantly cracked pilear surface with brownish-grey scales, stratified tube layer with dimitc hyphal system and thick-walled yellow to brown, acyanophilic subglobose to ellipsoid basidiospores.
African species, F. yoroui (Olou et al. 2019) shows close resemblance with F. thiruvannamalaiensis, in sharing perennial, pileate, ungulate basidiomata, dimitic hyphal system and presence of fusoid cystidioles, but the size and shape of the basidiospores (subglobose to globose basidiospores 5.5–6.5 × 4.7–5.6 μm), differ from F. thirvannamalaiensis. Fulvifomes krugiodendri (Ji et al. 2017), F. rimosus (Hattori et al. 2014) and F. thailandicus (Zhou 2015) are closely similar to F. thirvannamalaiensis morphologically by sharing dimidiate, concentrically sulcate, cracked basidiocarp, dimitic hyphal system and presence of fusoid cystidioles, yet differs in the number of pores and the size of basidiospores.
Despite few morphological resemblances between F. elaeodendri (Tchoumi et al. 2020) such as sulcate, glabrous pileus becoming cracked with age, stratified tube layer the distinct microscopical traits viz., absence of cystidioles and the size of the basidiospores are distinguishing F. thiruvannamalaiensis from F. elaeodendri. Fulvifomes centroamericanus (Ji et al. 2017), F. hainanensis (Zhou 2014) and F. imbricatus (Zhou 2015) besides having dimitic hyphal systems are significantly distinct from F. thiruvannamalaiensis in morphology and microscopic features, by having uncracked pilear surface, shape and size of basidiospores.
Fulvifomes thiruvannamalaiensis shares a few similar morphological traits with the American species, F. cedrelae, F. robinae and F. squamosus (Salvador-Montoya et al. 2018) by having perennial, applanate, ungulate, sessile basidiomata with sulcate, cracked pilei, homogenous context and stratified tubes, however, the former differs from the later in hyphal system, number of pores and size of the basidiospore. The Chinese species F. submerrillii (Liu et al. 2020), shows high variations both morphologically and microscopically from the newly described Indian F. thiruvannamalaiensis (Fig. 151).

Note: Hymenogastraceae was erected by Vittadini (1893) with contained gilled and false-truffle fungi. According to the recent study by He et al. (2019), Hymenogastraceae is one of the larger families in the Agaricales and comprises 10 genera, namely Anamika K.A. Thomas, Peintner, M.M. Moser & Manim., Flammula (Fr.) P. Kumm., Galerina Earle, Gymnopilus P. Karst., Hebeloma (Fr.) P. Kumm., Hymenogaster Vittad., Naucoria (Fr.) P. Kumm., Phaeocollybia R. Heim, Psathyloma Soop, J.A. Cooper & Dima and Psilocybe (Fr.) P. Kumm. Now, it is represented by more than 1500 species in Hymenogastraceae (Matheny et al. 2006; Redhead et al. 2007; Kirk et al. 2008; He et al. 2019).
Psilocybe (Fr.) P. Kumm., Führ. Pilzk. (Zerbst): 21 (1871)
Psilocybe was first introduced by Kummer (1871) with P. semilanceata (Fr.) P. Kumm. as the type species. This genus is saprotrophic and widely distributed in both tropical and temperate areas (Singer and Smith 1958; Guzmán 1978, 1983; Redhead et al. 2007; Kirk et al. 2008), while Psilocybe sensu lato is known to include Deconica. Both Psilocybe and Deconica have been characterized by typically hygrophanous basidiomata, brown to yellow–brown pileus, lilac-brown to dark brown to dark purple-brown spore prints, ellipsoid to rhomboid to subhexagonal basidiospores with a distinct apical germ pore (Singer and Smith 1958; Guzmán 1978, 1983; Redhead et al. 2007). Most Psilocybe contains psychedelic compounds, e.g. baeocystin, psilocin and psilocybin (Stamets 1996), whereas Deconica possesses none of these compounds (Marcano et al. 1994). Traditionally, Psilocybe and Deconica belong to Strophariaceae, order Agaricales (Guzmán 1978, 1983). However, multi-phylogenetic analyses have revealed that Psilocybe formed a monophyletic genus in Hymenogastraceae, order Agaricales, which clearly separates it from Deconica (Ramírez-Cruz et al. 2013). There are more than 300 accepted species of Psilocybe in the Index Fungorum (2022a, b), however, only eight Psilocybe species have been reported in Thailand (P. cubensis (Earle) Singer, P. magnispora E. Horak, Guzmán & Desjardin, P. samuiensis Guzmán, Bandala & J.W. Allen, P. subaeruginascens Höhn, P. thaiaerugineomaculans Guzmán, Karun. & Ram.-Guill., P thaicordispora Guzmán, Ram.-Guill. & Karun., P. thaiduplicatocystidiata Guzmán, Karun. & Ram.-Guill., and P. thailandensis E. Horak, Guzmán & Desjardin and P. thaizapoteca Guzmán, Karun. & Ram.-Guill.) (Guzmán et al. 1993, 2012; Horak et al. 2009; Chandrasrikul et al. 2011).

Pileus 13–25 mm diameter, hemisphearic, subconic or campanulate, hygrophanous, brownish-orange (6C4) to greyish orange (5B6), fading to light orange (5A4) to orange-white (5A2), surface glabrous, lucidus when dry and often somewhat bluish when touched or on drying, especially at the edge, not viscid and the margin finely translucent striate when moist; context pale yellow (2A3) or yellowish-white (2A2), bruising ink blue. Lamellae adnate to slightly sinuate, close, light orange (5A4) to orange (5A6) to brownish grey (9C2) or reddish-brown (9E5), often with ink blue tinge, edges serrulate and remaining whitish. Stipe 45–80 × 1.5–3 mm, equal, sometimes flattened and becoming tapered toward the base, nearly concolorous with the pileus, darker below, often with ink blue to blackish tinge when touched or when dry, and shiny when dry; surface longitudinally striate and covered with appressed whitish fibrils or flocculose, sometimes uneven and with scrobicula and grooves; base with white mycelium and often radicating; annulus absent; context fragile, yellowish and yellowish-brown towards the surface and base, staining somewhat ink blue when bruised. Spore print dark brown.
Basidiospores 6–10 × 5–7 × 4–6 μm, often subrhomboid or ovoid, sometimes ellipsoid, occasionally inconspicuous subhexagonal in face view, Q = 1.1–1.7, Qm = 1.35 ± 0.13, ellipsoid or subovoid, sometimes nearly oblong inside view, Q = 1.2–1.8, Qm = 1.55 ± 0.15; yellowish-brown with a purple tinge in water, dark yellow to yellowish-brown in KOH, dark purplish-brown in deposit; wall smooth, slightly thick (0.5–1 μm), complex, with 0.8–1.5 μm wide apical germ pore. Basidia 18–28 × 5–8 μm, hyaline, long subcylindric to clavate, often constricted in middle and narrowed in the lower half, 4-spored and 2-spored, rarely 1-spored; sterigmata up to 6 μm. Pleurocystidia are relatively rare and scattered, 13–22 × 4–6.5 μm, hyaline, ventricose to sublageniform, sometime fusoid or clavate, occasionally nearly cylindric-clavate or obclavate, often with a 1–7.5 × 1–2 μm neck or rostrum, not branched, the top or apex often seems wall thickened or contain some matter. Cheilocystidia abundant, 14–35.5 × 4–8 μm, hyaline, similar to pleurocystidia, mostly with a 1.5–13 × 1–3 μm rostrum or neck, sometimes with an acuminate apex, the top or apex often seems wall thickened or contain some matter. Pileipellis an ixocutis, 15–80 μm thick, made up of creeping, interwoven, 2–6 μm wide filiform to slender tubular hyphae, hyaline and colourless, wall-smoothed and thin; subpileipellis more pigmented to dark yellow in KOH. Subhymenium subcellular, hyaline, composed of irregular vesiculose to polygonal or subglobose cells. Caulocystidia abundant, 14–49 × 3.5–12 μm, scattered, gregarious to clustered at the upper part of the stipe, hyaline, similar to cheilocystidia, hyaline, thick-walled. Clamp connections present in all tissues.
Material examined: Thailand, Ubon Ratchathani Province, Phibun Mangsahan, District, 15° 3′ 25″ N 105° 26′ 50″ E, elevation 164 m, on soil, 4 May 2019, N. Suwannarach & J. Kumla, SDBR-CMUNK0448.
Habitat: Growing solitary to scattered on dung or soil of meadows, or grassland in an open area.
Distribution: India (Thomas et al. 2002), Southwestern China (Ma et al. 2016) and Thailand (This study).
GenBank numbers: MZ452082 (ITS), MZ452083 (LSU).
Notes: Morphologically, P. keralensis is similar to P. columbiana Guzmán; however, P. columbiana differs significantly in the absence of pleurocystidia. It has been known to only be from Colombia (Guzmán 1978, 1983; Guzmán et al. 2005). Phylogenetically, P. keralensis formed a sister taxon to P. thaizapoteca (Fig. 153). However, the large pileus (20–50 mm in diameter) and small basidiospores (6–7 × 3–4.5 × 3–3.5 μm) of P. thaizapoteca clearly differ from P. keralensis (Guzmán et al. 2012).
Marasmiaceae Roze ex Kühner.
Note: Marasmiaceae was erected by Kühner (1980) with a combination of Marasmieae, Collybieae and Myceneae of Tricholomataceae R. Heim in Singer (1986) classification. Molecular phylogeny has revealed that Marasmiaceae is monophyletic, containing ten genera (Amyloflagellula Singer, Brunneocorticium Sheng H. Wu, Campanella Henn., Chaetocalathus Singer, Crinipellis Pat., Hymenogloea Pat., Marasmius Fr., Moniliophthora H.C. Evans, Stalpers, Samson & Benny, Neocampanella Nakasone, Hibbett & Goranova and Tetrapyrgos E. Horak) with more than 1590 species, Marasmius being the generic type (Matheny et al. 2006; Kirk et al. 2008; He et al. 2019) of this family.
Marasmius Fr., Fl. Scan.: 339 (1836).
Marasmius is a large genus of plant debris decomposers (Singer 1976a, b, 1986; Antonín and Noordeloos 2010) that is represented by approximately 600 species worldwide (He et al. 2019). The genus was first introduced by Fries (1835) and Marasmius rotula (Scop.). Fr. was later designated as the type species by Singer and Smith (1946). Marasmius is characterized by small or possibly large to robust basidiomata, convex or campanulate, striate to sulcate, white to strongly pigmented pilei, well-developed lamellar, thin and typically tough, cylindrical, often brown or darkly fuscous stipe, white spore print, hyaline, smooth and inamyloid spores and hymeniform pileipellis of smooth or diverticulate cells (Singer 1976a, b, 1986; Antonín 2007). Generic circumscription of Marasmius sensu stricto was restricted (Wilson and Desjardin 2005) and the infrageneric classification has been revised based on the results of a phylogenetic analysis of combined sequences of LSU and ITS incorporated with other notable morphological features (Oliveira et al. 2020b).

Material examined: Thailand, Nakhon Ratchasima Provinve, Khao Yai National Park, 33 km marker on Hyw 2090, 22 Sep 2018, collectors N Wannathes, N Suwannarach J Kumla, S Lumyong, BKF10248 (holotype), NW1108 (isotype).
Habit, habitat and known distribution: Gregarious on dicotyledonous leave, known only from Thailand.
GenBank numbers: MZ452673 (ITS).
Notes: Marasmius pallidoaurantiacus is characterized by a tiny, hemispherical with dark brown conical papilla at the center, slightly striate, plae orange pileus, collariate, distant lamellae, thin stipe, sometimes arising directly from the rhizomorph, ellipsoid to fusoid basidiospores with mean 8.2 × 4.2 µm, and the presence of Siccus-type broom cell cheilocytidia. This new species is morphologically similar to Marasmius pallenticeps Singer, which was originally described from Argentina. The latter differs by forming a pure white pileus, stipe usually arising directly from rhizomorphs and the presence of nodes (Desjardin and Ovrebo 2006). Marasmius pallidoaurantiacus pilei appear pigmented like those of M. longibasidiatus J.S. Oliveira, a species recently described from Brazil. This species differs by forming bigger (1.3–4 mm diam.), sulcate pileus, longer basidia (33–42 × 7.8–10 µm) and pileipellis composed of mixed Siccus type broom cell and non-setulost cells (Oliveira 2020). Phylogenetic analyses inferred from ITS sequence data (Fig. 155) confirmed that M. pallidoaurantiacus is a distinct species from other related morphological species and other taxa within this genus.

Habit, habitat and known distribution: Gregarious on dicotyledonous wood, known only from Thailand.
GenBank numbers: MZ452087 (ITS).
Notes: Marasmius tangerinus is characterized by a tiny, hemispherical, bright orange pileus, with dark brown papilla at the center, collariate, distant lamellae, thin stipe, sometimes arising directly from the rhizomorph, ellipsoid to fusoid basidiospores with mean 8.6 × 4.9 µm, pileipellis composed of mixed Siccus type broom cell and non-setulost cells, with the presence of cheilocytidia, and ligicolous habit. Marasmius tangerinus is morphologically similar to M. trichorhizus Speg. which has been characterized from a neotropic realm. The latter species differ by forming more lamellae (12–15), longer stipe (4–71 mm long), and smaller basidiospores with mean 6.9 × 3.4 µm (Oliveira 2020). The phylogenetic analyses of the ITS sequence data (Fig. 155) indicate that M. tangerinus is a distinct species from other related morphological species and other taxa within this genus.
Physalacriaceae Corner, Beih. Nova Hedwigia 33: 10 (1970).
Notes: The family was typified by Physalacria Peck (Peck 1883), which contained a number of marasmoid fungi, including the important tree pathogen Armillaria (Fr.) Staude and edible fungi Flammulina P. Karst., this group usually have pilocystdia and non-dextrinoid tissue (Petersen and Hughes 2010). More than 28 genera included in this family by Index Fungorum (2022a, b) and are accepted by Wijayawardene et al. (2022).
Rhizomarasmius R.H. Petersen, Mycotaxon 75: 333 (2000).
Notes: Petersen (2000) accommodated two Marasmius species, M. pyrrhocephalus Berk. and M. undatus (Berk.) Fr. to form a new genus, Rhizomarasmius R.H. Petersen. This genus is characterized by convex to hemispherical pileus, distant, thick, ascending, white lamellae and central stipe apically pale and darkening downward to brown-black, smooth basidiospores, pileipellis forming a hymeniderm layer of clavate, globose to sphaeropedunculate, smooth elements and scattered, elongate pileocystidia, as well as the presence of cheilo-, pleuro- and caulocystidia (Petersen 2000; Antonín and Noordeloos 2010). Most members of marasmoid are saprotrophic or parasitic fungi (Pacioni and Lalli 1989; Filippi 1991; Ronikier and Ronikier 2011; Moreau et al. 2015). Rhizomarasmius epidryas (Kühner ex A. Ronikier) A. Ronikier and M. Ronikier is a common arctic-alpine saprotrophic fungus (Ronikier 2009, 2011), and this species was originally described by Kühner as Marasmius epidryas Kühner in 1935 (Kühner 1936). Wilson and Desjardin (2005) and Noordeloos and Antonín (2008) transferred this species into Mycetinis Earle. However, later established that the species belongs to the new genus Rhizomarasmius by Anna & Macheł Ronikier and changed the current name accordingly (Ronikier 2009, 2011). Recently Moreau et al. (2015) added two members, Rhizomarasmius oreinus (Pacioni & Lalli) Vizzini, Antonín & A. Urb. and R. setosus (Sowerby) Antonín & A. Urb. To date, there are five species described within this genus. Petersen (2000), Petersen and Hughes (2010) and Ronikier and Ronikier (2011), showed Rhizomarasmius to form a well-supported clade in phylogenetic analyses.

Etymology: the species epithet refers to the host genus Cunninghamia.
Holotype: HGASMF01-10709
Basidiomata gregarious, marasmioid, marasmielloid or collybioid. Pileus 9–36 mm in diameter, convex to plano-convex when young, expanding to applanate with age, obtuse or slightly depressed at the centre, often wrinkled, slightly sticky, sometimes hygrophanous, translucent when mosit, radially striate or sulcate from the margin up to 3/4 of the radius nearly to the centre, with transversely sulcate between each radial striate when old, involute then inflexed to reflexed at margin, with marginal zone often undulating with age, almost white overall when young, with somewhat milk white (1A2) pigment, then change to generally orange white (6A2), pale orange (6A3) or cinnamon (6D6) overall, paler towards margin, henna (7E8) to dark brown (8E8) at disc when old, darker in the groove, paler at margin. Lamellae adnate, sometimes with slightly decurrently tooth, furcate, intervenose, or anastomosing, often split, linear to ventricose, subdistant, L = 10–14, l = 1–2, white overall, often with light brown (6D4) to reddish brown (8E8) tint, up to 3 mm broad. Stipe 6–23 × 1–3 mm, central, insititious, hollow, pruinose, more or less cylindrical above, sometimes broadened in somewhere, often tapering towards base, pallid at the apex, orange white (6A2) or pale orange (6A3) to dark brown (8E8) below, black at base. Basidiospores (3.5)5–6.5 (7) × 3–4 μm (average = 5.77 × 3.42 μm, E = 1.43–2(–2.16), Q = 1.69), ellipsoid, amygdaliform, thin-walled, non-dextrinoid, hyaline, smooth. Basidia 21–35 × 4.5–6 μm, 4-spored, clavate, hyaline. Basidioles 21–35.5 × 4–6 μm, clavate, cylindrical, hyaline.

Pileipellis a hymeniform layer of clavate to sphaeropedunculate smooth cells measuring 12.5–29.5 × 9–15.5 μm, possibly gelatinized. Pileiocystidia 35.5–51 × 8–16.5 μm, fusiform, narrowly lageniform to lageniform with capitate apex, thin-walled. Stipitipellis a cutis, of cylindrical, parallel, slightly thick-walled, non-dextrinoid, up to 19.5 μm wide hyphae. Caulocystidia 35–59 × 6–12 μm, cylindrical to broadly cylindrical with or without capitate apex, sometimes lobed, thick-walled. Clamp connections present in all tissue.
Material examined: China, Guizhou Province, Qiandongnan Miao Autonomous Prefecture, Liping County, Dongfeng tree farm, on the dead trunk of Cunninghamia lanceolata (Lamb.)

HGASMF01-10708- MW326780 (ITS), MW332105 (LSU)
Notes: Rhizomarasmius cunninghamietorum has an insititious stipe, a pileipellis as a hymeniform layer of clavate to sphaeropedunculate smooth cells, with narrowly lageniform to lageniform with capitate apex pileocystidia. These morphological characteristics of R. cunninghamietorum are consistent with the circumscription of Rhizomarasmius (Moreau et al. 2015). The phylogenetic evidence showed that R. cunninghamietorum formed a single branch and was clearly separate from the known species of Rhizomarasmius and closer to its related genera Cibaomyces and Gloiocephala (Fig. 159). However, Cibaomyces was accepted as a monotypic genus based on the subglobose to broadly ellipsoid basidiospores with conspicuous spines and Gloiocephala sensu Singer with smooth spores, subcapitate to capitate cystidia, a gelatinized trama (Singer 1976a, b, 1986) is probably polyphyletic (Moncalvo et al. 2002; Binder et al. 2006; Vizzini et al. 2012; Hao et al. 2014). Thus, Rhizomarasmius is probably polyphyletic based on the phylogenetic analysis generated here. Morphologically, among the known species of Rhizomarasmius, R. epidryas has entirely brown-black and distinctly velutinose stipe, bigger basidiospores (average 8.85 × 5.7 μm) and narrowly clavate or cylindrical pleurocystidia (Ronikier 2009); R. setosus with different habitat on leaf petioles and its microscopic features without clamps (Antonín and Noordeloos 2010); Rhizomarasmius oreinus has smooth red-brown pileus, entirely tomentose pubescent stipe and bigger basidiospores (average 12.5 × 8.8 μm, Moreau et al. 2015); R. pyrrhocephalus has pubescent to tomentose stipe, and bigger basidiospores (average 8.2 × 3.7 μm, Desjardin 1989) and R. undatus has longer (5.0–6.3 cm) and strigose stipe (Smith 1836).
Polyporales Gäum.
Notes: Polyporales is a large group of Agaricomycetes, accommodating about 2500 species (He et al. 2019). The latest treatments and updated accounts of Polyporales are followed in Justo et al. (2017), He et al. (2019), and Wijayawardene et al. (2022).
Polyporaceae Fr. ex Corda [as 'Polyporei'], Icon. fung. (Prague) 3: 49 (1839).
Notes: Polyporaceae, typified by Polyporus P. Micheli ex Adans, currently includes 90 genera, most of which are polypores, rarely corticioid species (Justo et al. 2017; He et al. 2019; Wijayawardene et al. 2022). Microscopically, the hyphal system is usually dimitic or trimitic, rarely monomitic; the generative hyphae are usually with clamp-connections; cystidia are mostly absent; basidiospores are thin- to thick-walled, smooth to ornamented and colorless to brown. All species produce a white rot (Justo et al. 2017).
Grammothele Berk. & M.A. Curtis, Journal of the Linnean Society. Botany 10: 327 (1869).
Notes: Grammothele, typified by G. lineata Berk. & M.A. Curtis, accommodates 24 species (Zhou and Dai 2012; Ryvarden 2015; Yuan 2015; Wu et al. 2016; Hyde et al. 2019). The genus is characterized by having resupinate basidiomata with shallow poroid hymenophore consisting of angular, partly sinuous, irregular or incomplete pores, dimitic or trimitic hyphal system with clamped generative hyphae and dextrinoid skeletal hyphae, usually presence of dendrohyphidia, and ellipsoid to cylindrical basidiospores that are thin-walled, smooth, colorless and not reacting both in Melzer’s reagent and Cotton Blue. Species of Grammothele commonly occur on hardwoods and monocotyledons in tropical to subtropical regions, causing a white rot (Ryvarden 1979, 2015). Previous phylogenetic studies have shown that Grammothele is polyphyletic and closely related to some other genera in the Polyporaceae, such as Porogramme (Pat.) Pat., Theleporus Fr. and Tinctoporellus Ryvarden (Zhou and Dai 2012; Yuan 2015; Wu et al. 2016; Hyde et al. 2019).

Notes: Grammothele taiwanensis is characterized by having resupinate, cream to buff basidiomata with larger pores (3–5 per mm), dimitic hyphal system with clamped generative hyphae and weekly dextrinoid skeletal hyphae, presence of fusoid cystidioles, dendrohyphidia and hyphidia, and cylindrical basidiospores (7.9–10.5 × 3.3–4.4 µm). Grammothele taiwanensis resembles G. pulchella (Bres.) Ryvarden in having similar pore and basidiospore sizes [4–5 per mm, 7–10 × 3–4 µm in Hjortstam and Ryvarden (1982), as G. ochracea Ryvarden] and presence of dendrohyphidia; however, G. pulchella differs from this species in having cork-colored to wood-colored pore surface and pale brown context, and absence of cystidioles and hyphidia (Hjortstam and Ryvarden 1982). Grammothele taiwanensis is also similar to G. hainanensis F. Wu & L.W. Zhou and G. hondurensis (Murrill) Ryvarden, but the latter two species have hyphal pegs and smaller basidiospores [G. hainanensis: 7–8.1 × 2.3–2.9 µm in Wu et al. (2016); G. hondurensis: 5–8 × 3–3.5 µm in Ryvarden (1985)]. Phylogenetically, two sequences of G. taiwanensis formed an isolated lineage with high support (Fig. 161).
Incrustoporiaceae Jülich, Biblthca Mycol. 85: 373 (1982) [1981].
Notes. Incrustoporiaceae was established by Jülich (1981) and typified by Incrustoporia Domański. This family was treated as a synonymy of Polyporaceae according to the 10th edition of Dictionary of the Fungi (Kirk et al. 2008). Justo et al. (2017) provided a revised family-level classification of the Polyporales based on phylogenetic analyses inferred from ITS, nLSU and rpb2 genes, and four genera were accepted in Incrustoporiaceae, viz., Incrustoporia, Piloporia Niemelä, Skeletocutis Kotl. & Pouzar and Tyromyces P. Karst.
Skeletocutis Kotlába & Pouzar, Ceská Mykologie 12 (2): 103 (1958).
Notes: Skeletocutis Kotl. & Pouzar was established in 1958 and its type species is S. amorpha (Fr.) Kotl. & Pouzar (Kotlába and Pouzar 1958). The genus has resupinate to pileate basidiocarps, encrusted generative hyphae covered by fine crystals and tiny basidiospores, these are the most important characteristics of the genus. In addition, species in Skeletocutis cause white rot disease (Niemelä 1998). Species in this genus have wide distribution in the world, but the majority of the known species so far are found in the Northern Hemisphere (Gilbertson and Ryvarden 1986; Núñez and Ryvarden 2001; Ryvarden and Melo 2014). There are more than 60 taxa recorded in Skeletocutis and 25 of them occur in China (Cui and Dai 2008; Dai 2012; Zhou and Qin 2012; Bian et al. 2016; Fan et al. 2017; Du and Dai 2020).
Recently, taxonomic and phylogenetic studies of polypore fungi from China have been extensively carried out, and many new genera or new species have been found (Zhao et al. 2015; Han et al. 2016; Chen and Cui 2017; Chen et al. 2017a, b; Song and Cui 2017; Zhou and Cui 2017; Xing et al. 2018; Cui et al. 2019; Shen et al. 2019; Wu et al. 2019; Zhu et al. 2019; Sun et al. 2020a, b; Liu et al. 2021a, b), however, only very few studies have been focused on Skeletocutis of the Incrustoporiaceae. In this study, two new species of Skeletocutis are described from China based on morphological characteristics and phylogenetic analyses inferred from ITS + nLSU sequences.

Notes: In the phylogenetic tree (Fig. 164), Skeletocutis subchrysella grouped with S. chrysella, S. delicata Niemelä & Miettinen, S. exilis Miettinen & Niemelä and S. kuehneri A. David. Morphologically, they all have allantoid basidiospores; but S. chrysella differs from S. subchrysella in its trimitic hyphal system and longer basidiospores (2.8–4.5 × 0.7–1 μm; Niemelä 1998); S. delicata and S. exilis differ by having larger pores (3–6 per mm in S. delicata, 3–5 per mm in S. exilis) and basidiopores (3.2–4.2 × 1.1–1.4 µm in S. delicata, 3.2–3.9 × 0.9–1.1 µm in S. exilis; Miettinen and Niemelä 2018); S. kuehneri differs by having thin and brittle basidiocarps and growth on dead wood of Picea and Pinus (David 1982). Skeletocutis bambusicola, S. lepida, S. mopanshanensis and S. yunnanensis were also discovered from Yunnan Province. Skeletocutis bambusicola differs from the new species by having smaller pores (8–11 per mm) and ellipsoid basidiospores (2.7–3.1 × 1.5–1.9 µm; Zhou and Qin 2012); S. lepida differs by having half-resupinate basidiocarps with ochraceous upper surface when dry (Korhonen et al. 2018); S. mopanshanensis differs by having larger pores (4–5 per mm) and basidiospores (4.7–6.6 × 3.2–4.5 µm; Wu et al. 2017); S. yunnanensis differs by having larger basidiospores (3.4–4.5 × 1–1.2 µm; Bian et al. 2016).

Wächter and Melzer (2020) based on phylogenetic and morphological characteristics, introduced six new monophyletic genera to this family. Wijayawardene et al. (2022) accepted 21 genera in Psathyrellaceae.
Coprinopsis cinerea (Schaeff.) Redhead, Vilgalys & Moncalvo, in Redhead et al., Taxon 50 (1): 227 (2001).
Index Fungorum number: IF474379; Faceoffungi number: FoF11681; Figs. 166, 167, 168
Saprobic on roots of Vigna unguiculata. Sexual morph: Basidiomycetous. Basidiocarp 0.3–4 cm long, formed on the roots of cowpea, mycelial strands encircled the host tissues on the root region, and basidiocarp emerged upon incubation in moist chamber. Pileus strongly convex, and/or parasol-shaped to flat or depressed, hymenium borne on gills, becoming deliquescent and inky, lamellae thin, basidia unmodified, basidiospores 7.5–12.2 × 5 − 10 μm diam., ballistosporic, blue-black, smooth with a distinct germ pore. Asexual morph: not obesrved.
Cultural characteristics: On PDA medium, colony were white and free from fruiting bodies till 5 days but later, development of basidiocarp was noticed which later enlarged and produced typical fruiting body. Upon examination of the basidiocarp from the PDA plates, microscopic examination of basidiospores revealed that they were same in morphological features.
Material examined: India, Karnataka, Mysore, Doddamaragowdanahally, on infected leaves of Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp. (Fabaceae) placed on PDA as secondary saprophytes, 18 May 2017 Mahadevakumar (UOM-IOE-18/24), living culture (MD8).
Habitat: commonly found on dung or wood chips (Kamada 2002), roots and leaves of Vigna unguiculate (This study).
Distribution: worldwide.
GenBank number: OM812073(ITS).
Notes: Coprinopsis species are known to grow on various substrates as secondary saprophytes and are also known to occur as primary components of soil and leaf litter. However, an association of Coprinopsis species has not been reported on any crop plants. Cowpea plants affected with a characteristic white cottony mycelium profusely grown on roots were observed which were eventually wilted and dried off which caused the death of the host plants. Infected materials were collected and subjected to pathogen isolation. Few infected parts were incubated at room temperature and observed for mycelial development. To our surprise, a characteristic mushroom fruiting bodies were developed. Therefore, the spores were photographed and subjected for identification. Here, the mushrooms are developed in three parts. Infected roots collected from the field, root samples incubated at room temperature and leaves incubated in a moist chamber (in a Petri plate) showed the development of small basidiocarp. Upon microscopic examination, it was identified as Coprinopsis sp. based on fruiting bodies, basidia, basidiospores, sterigmata and other associated structures. This is the first time that C. cinerea is reported from Fabaceae, Vigna unguiculata representing a new host record (Fig. 169).
Thelephorales Corner ex Oberw.
Notes: The order was established by Oberwinkler (1976) based on the type family Thelephoraceae Chevall. Thelephorales is reported to incorporate two families: Thelephoraceae and Bankeraceae Donk, and ten major clades: Amaurodon, Boletopsis, Hydnellum/Sarcodon, Lenzitopsis, Odontia, Phellodon/Bankera, Pseudotomentella/Polyozellus, Sarcodon, Thelephora/Tomentella and Tomentella (Stalpers 1993; Vizzini et al. 2016). Twelve genera and about 800 described species are accommodated within the order according to Index Fungorum 2022a, b (http://www.indexfungorum.org). Wijayawardene et al. (2022) accepted 14 genera in this order.
Thelephoraceae Chevall. [as’Thelephoreae’], Fl. Gén. Env. Paris (Paris) 1: 84 (1826).
Notes: Thelephoraceae was proposed by Chevall (1826), and Thelephora Ehrh. ex Willdwas regarded as its type genus. Thelephoraceae, as a relatively large one, comprises nine genera within the Thelephorales (Wijayawardene et al. 2022). Many species in the family, as ectomycorrhiza formers, are believed to be of great ecological importance in maintaining the balance of terrestrial ecosystems (Haug et al. 2005; Jakucs and Erős-Honti 2008; Kuhar et al. 2016).
Tomentella Pers. ex Pat., Hyménomyc. Eur. (Paris): 154 (1887).
Notes: Tomentella was validated by Patouillard (1887). Species of the genus usually form cottony or spider web–likereproductive structures and grow on fallen wood, leaf litter, soil and other substrates (Larsen 1974; Tedersoo et al. 2003). Around 400 names have been recorded and about 200 species were described. The species of Tomentella are reported to be widely distributed throughout the world and have been immensely taxonomically studied from Eurasia, North America, South America, Australia, Asia and WestAfrica (Thind and Rattan 1971; Larsen 1998; Agerer et al. 2001; Yorou and Agerer 2008; Alvarez-Manjarrez et al. 2015; Kuhar et al. 2016). During the investigation of resupinate-thelephoroid fungi from the subtropical forests in China, several Tomentella specimens were collected, and two undescribed species have been identified using morphological characteristics and molecular phylogenetic analyses (Fig. 173).
Tomentella exiguelata Y.H. Mu & H.S. Yuan, sp. nov.

Notes: Tomentella exiguelata forms a close phylogenetic relationship with T. galzinii and T. subtestacea (Fig. 173). Tomentella galzinii and T. exiguelata share the following similar morphological and anatomical characteristics: mucedinoid basidiocarps adherent to the substrate, granulose hymenophoral surface, farinaceous sterile margin, similar-wide subhymenial hyphae, and not stalked and sinuous basidia. However, T. galzinii has discontinuous and dull green to olive-brown basidiocarps, indeterminate sterile margin, and the presence of cystidia (Bourdot and Galzin 1924). Tomentella subtestacea resembles T. exiguelata in mucedinoid basidiocarps adherent to the substrate, clamped and rarely simple septate subicular hyphae, thin-to slightly thick-walled subhymenial hyphae, utriform and not stalked basidia and echinulate basidiospores of similar length. However, T. subtestacea can be distinguished by reddish-brown to grayish buff hymenophoral surface, arachnoid sterile margin, and the presence of cystidia (Svrček 1958).
Tomentella fuscoaraneosa Y.H. Mu &H.S. Yuan, sp. nov.

Notes: Tomentella fuscoaraneosa is closely related to T. aureomarginata in the phylogeny (Fig. 173). In morphology, T. fuscoaraneosa is similar to T. aureomarginata in having a determinate and byssoid sterile margin, the presence of type B rhizomorphs, monomitic generative hyphae with clamps and simple septa, and the absence of cystidia. However, T. aureomarginata differs from T. fuscoaraneosa by having pelliculose basidiocarps adherent to the substrate, golden brown to yellowish-brown hymenophoral surface turning darker when dry, not stalked basidia and wider basidiospores (6–6.5 μm vs. 4.5–6 μm in T. fuscoaraneosa) with shorter echinuli (up to 1 μm vs. up to 1.5 μm in T. fuscoaraneosa) (Yuan et al. 2020). Tomentella fuscoaraneosa shares common features with T. brunneoflava in arachnoid and continuous basidiocarps, the presenceof rhizomorphs and clamped and rarely simple septate subicular hyphae and short and not inflated subhymenial hyphae. However, T. brunneoflava differs from T. fuscoaraneosa by having brownish-yellow basidiocarps adherent to the substrate and clavate and not stalked basidia (Yuan et al. 2020).
Agaricales genera incertae sedis
Gerronema Singer, Mycologia 43(5): 599 (1951).
Gerronema is a minor genus of lignicolous agaric and is distributed worldwide (Singer 1986). There are 66 epithets (excluding synonyms) listed in the Index Fungorum (2021). Gerronema. melanomphax Singer is the specific type species. Historically, different circumscriptions of Gerronema based on pigmentations established by Singer (1964) and Bigelow (1970) have been problematic. Subsequently, Redhead (1986) and Norvell et al. (1994) restricted the delimitation of Gerromena and characterized its descriptive features as elastic to fleshy, omphalinoid to clitocyboid basidiomata, white spore print, smooth, thin-walled, inamyloid basidiospores, cutis pileipellis often with intracellular pigment, sarcodimitics trama tissue and lignicolous habit. This circumscription correlates with the molecular phylogenetic analysis of the combined nrITS and nrLSU dataset and revealed that Gerronema is monophyletic and forms a clade with Megacollybia and Trogia in Hydropoid calde (Antonín et al. 2019).

Notes: Gerronema flavum is characterized by a small omphaliod basidiomata that appears convex with depressed center infundibuliform, radially fibrillose, glabrous, yellow pileus, decurrent, subdistant lamellae, cylindrical, central, yellowish white stipe, broadly ellipsoid basidiospores with mean dimensions of 7.7 × 4.7 µm. The pileipellis is composed of hyaline with non-incrusted hyphae, the presence of irregular cylindrical cheilo-, pleuro- and cualocystidia, and sarcodimitic trama tissue. Gerronema kuruvense K.P.D. Latha & Manim and G. subchrysophyllum (Murrill) Singer are morphologically similar to a new species, namely Gerronema kuruvense, which was originally described from tropical India. It is distinguished by forming orange yellow pileus, bigger basidiospores with mean dimensions of 9.5 × 5.9 µm., an absence of cheilo- and pleurocystidia and the presence of diverticulate caulocystidia (Latha et al. 2018). Gerronema subchrysophyllum, a North American species, differs by having a larger basidiomata of nearly double the size (pilei 4–21 mm wide and stipe 4–32 mm long), simple clavate cheilocystidia and a lack a pleurocystidia (Singer 1970). The phylogenetic analyses inferred from combined sequences (Fig. 179) confirmed that G. flavum is a distinct species. This was further confirmed via an examination of other related morphological species and other taxa within this genus.

Notes: Gerronema keralense is characterized by a medium-sized omphaliod basidiomata, infundibuliform, brownish orange to light brown pileus, decurrent to deeply decurrent, distant, greyish yellow lamella, cylindrical, central, greyish yellow stipe, ellipsoid basidiospores with mean dimensions of 7.8 × 4.4 µm, pileipellis with pileocystidia, non-incrusted hyphae, cytoplasmic inclusion that turned from brown to light brown in Melzer's reagent, the presence of irregular cylindrical cheilo-, cualocystidia and sarcodimitic trama tissue. Our Thai description is consistent with Gerronema keralense that was originally described from India, except for the type specimen that formed an applanate with a slight central depression pileus (Latha et al. 2018). Notably, these variations may be caused by a mutuality of basidiomata. Gerronema keralense is morphologically similar to G. kuruvense K.P.D. Latha & Manim, but the latter differs by having bigger basidiospores with mean dimensions of 9.1 × 4.9 µm, a cytoplasmic inclusion of pileocystidia that never changes colour with Melzer's reagent and caulocystidia that are not agglutinated (Latha et al. 2018).

Notes: Gerronema kuruvense is characterized by a medium-sized omphaliod basidiomata that is convex with a depressed center. It has a pale-yellow pileus that is subdecurrent, distant, with light yellow lamella, cylindrical, central, yellowish white stipe, ellipsoid basidiospores with mean dimensions of 9.1 × 4.9 µm. The pileipellis is composed of hyaline with pileocystidia, non-incrusted hyphae, the presence of irregular cylindrical cualocystidia and seldomly present cheilocystidia and sarcodimitic trama tissue. The Thai specimen is almost indistinguishable from Gerronema kuruvense, which was originally described from topical India. The holotype forms a smaller size basidiomata (pilei 4–11 mm wide and stipe 3–18 mm long) and lacks cheilocystidia (Latha et al. 2018). Gerronema kuruvense is morphologically similar to G. strombodes (Berk. & Mont.) Singer, but differs by forming larger basidiomata (pilei 25–80 mm wide and stipe of 30–60 × 2–6.8 mm) greyish white pileus, pileipellis lacking pileocystidia and a complete lack of caulocystidia (Singer 1970).
Tricholomopsis Singer, Schweiz. Z. Pilzk. 17: 56 (1939).
Tricholomopsis was established to accommodate a group of saprophytic tricholomatoid fungi which have a fibrillose or squamulose pileus, inamyloid smooth basidiospores, and a sterile lamella edge covered with large prominent cheilocystidia (Mao et al. 2021). There are 76 species epithets in the index fungorum for this genus.
Tricholomopsis lechatii Courtec., S. Dumez, S. Welti & P.-A. Moreau, sp. nov.
MycoBank number: MB843163, Facesoffungi number: FoF13397; Fig. 183
Etymology: The species is warmly dedicated to our friend Christian Lechat (1952–2022), who recently and suddenly died. He was an eminent specialist of the Hypocreales worldwide and a very enthusiastic and faithful member of the numerous field trips organized in the Tropics by one of us (RC). He was present when this species was collected.
Holotypus: 0202264 (LIP).
Pileus 10–14 mm diam, slightly convex or almost flat, showing a little umbilic (not deep) in the centre or slightly eccentric; shape regular, circular or almost so, sometimes slightly elliptical when seen from above. Surface remarkably dull, finely tomentose or even velvety under lens. Color very special, dirty olivaceous with ochraceous hue at center but more yellow at the margin, which is slightly enrolled or at least very obtuse and scarcely pectinate at the extreme edge. Lamellae adnate, rather crowded, with two rather regular rows of smaller gills, thin. Color rather bright and deep, mustard yellow. Edge rather thick, clearly bearing a row of small, densely crowded, aggregates of crystals. Stipe up to 15 × 2 mm, slightly excentrical, cylindraceous, more or less narrowly fistulose, dull yellow, paler than the gills but sometimes pale brownish toward mid-length, arising from a thin greyish mycelial patch of subiculum (up to 35 mm diam.), which sometimes climbs up to the stipe up to a few millimeters, thus greyish at the basis. Context yellowish in the stipe, deeper yellow in the cap. Smell none. Taste not recorded.
Basidiospores 6.2–7.5 × 4.8–5 µm, rather broad, elliptical to slightly tear-shaped, apex broader and generally clearly rounded (not elongate nor conical). Apiculus small, faintly distinct. Content with many droplets (sometimes a large one) and confuse, cloudy or punctate around them. Wall smooth, inamyloid, not cyanophilic. Basidia 20–28 × 5–8 µm, 2-spored (very few 1-spored and only one 3-spored seen) with very long and sharp sterigmata (up to 10 µm), containing large droplets, the bigger ones at the top. Clamp present at the base of all basidia. Subhymenium ramose, rather thick with short, clamped hyphae up to 1.5–2.5 µm wide, somewhat wavy with some longer hyphae parallel to the hymenium. Hymenophoral trama parallel in a wavy arrangement, weakly interwoven, made of clamped hyphae 4–8 µm wide. Edge sterile; cheilocystidia very numerous and prominent, cylindrical to slightly clavate, often regularly thickened toward apex, 35–45 × 8–12 µm, thin-walled, hyaline; base clamped, originated from simple or rarely forked hyphae. Pleurocystidia absent; facial sterile cells present as sparse slender “hyphids” cylindrical or slightly thickened at apex, up to 4 µm wide. Pileipellis a trichoderm of more or less straightly erected, unicellular or sometimes articulate elements, rather densely arranged, 30–70 × 7–15 µm, the apex mostly rounded or sometimes irregular, rarely mucronate to appendiculate or exceptionally forked; pigmentation epiparietal and vacuolar: wall yellowish, very finely incrusting (minutely punctate or finely marked with transverse zebra depending on the focus made on the cell wall) in all parts of the basidiome; vacuolar pigment abundant in subpellis, also present in broad elements of suprapellis, brown-yellow.
Habitat: Saprobic on rotten wood of unidentified Angiosperm, wet tropical forest, along a wet depression. So far only known from the type locality, French Guiana.
Material examined: French Guiana: Saül, Roche Bateau trail, 23 Aug. 2018, R. Courtecuisse & C. Lechat, RC/Guy18.018 (LIP 0202264, holotype).

Notes: Tricholomopsis lechatii phylogenetically belongs to the T. aurea-complex, a pantropical group of collybioid species so far rather poorly documented in molecular databases (Fig. 184). Tricholomopsis aurea was originally described from DR Congo (as Marasmius aureus; Beeli, 1928), and recently transferred in the genus Tricholomopsis by Desjardin and Perry (2017) based on recent collections from São Tomé. Although the species is reported as common in many tropical regions (GBIF data: https://www.gbif.org/en/species/332554), only few sequences from the neotropics are available, and the ITS marker indicates only faint differences between African and American collections (Desjardin and Perry 2017, consider them as conspecific at this time). The new species described here differs significantly from T. aurea, by a pileipellis of trichodermioid structure, with a well-differentiated subpellis and a distinct vacuolar pigment (responsible of the grey-brown tomentum on pileus), whilst T. aurea has a thin cutis-like structure, resulting in a glabrous, golden yellow surface with ± inflate terminal elements with granular intracellular pigmentation (Pegler 1983).
Only few neotropical species of Tricholomopsis were recorded in the Neotropics, and none can be attributed to T. lechatii. Tricholomopsis tropica Dennis from Trinidad is devoid of yellow tinge in context and displays abundant hymenial gloeocystidia (Pegler 1983), what makes its classification in this genus somewhat doubtul; T. atrogrisea Pegler from Martinique, possibly more related to T. lechatii, has a gelatinized pileipellis made of adpressed hyphae; T. elegans Dennis (Dennis 1961) could be the closest relative of T. lechatii but differs at least by smaller, subglobose spores (4.5–5 µm long) and 4-spored basidia. No species described so far display either the spectacular pale grey mycelial patch observed in T. lechatii, nor its conspicuous 2-spored basidia (Fig. 183).

Ustilaginaceae was introduced by Tulasne and Tulasne (1847). Twenty-eight genera are currently recognized in this family (He et al. 2019).
Sporisorium Ehrenb. ex Link, in Willdenow, Sp. pl., Edn 4 6(2): 86 (1825).
Sporisorium is a grass-infecting genus of smut fungi. It is characterized by sori formed in different parts of the inflorescence or destroying the entire inflorescence, sometimes also comprising the upper part of the stem. The sori are initially enclosed by a thick, brownish peridium that later ruptures irregularly exposing a single, stout columella surrounded by a mass of spores and sterile cells.
Until ten years ago, with 326 species Sporisorium was perceived by far the most species-rich genus of smut fungi. A new concept for Ustilago, Sporisorium, and Macalpinomyces was proposed by McTaggart et al. (2012a, b). In its modern circumscription, Sporisorium comprises 198 species (Vánky 2011, 2013; Denchev et al. 2012, 2016; McTaggart et al. 2012b; Denchev and Denchev 2013, 2016; Wang et al. 2015).
During an examination of specimens of grasses in the herbarium MA of the Real Jardín Botánico (Madrid, Spain), a smut fungus belonging to Sporisorium was found on a specimen of Anadelphia leptocoma (MA 690545) from Burkina Faso. Based on distinct morphology and phylogenetic evidence (Fig. 186), this fungus is introduced here as a novel species.

Index Fungorum number: IF558175; Facesoffungi number: FoF09652; Fig. 185.
Etymology: The specific epithet refers to the host species.
Holotype: SOMF 30250
Parasitic on Anadelphia leptocoma. Infection systemic. Sori destroying the racemes, 5–10 mm long, fusiform, all racemes of an infected plant affected; initially covered by a thick, yellow–brown peridium which later ruptures irregularly, exposing a single columella, surrounded by a powdery, dark reddish-brown mass of spores and sterile cells. Columella shorter than the sorus, flagelliform, apically slightly branched, sometimes slightly flattened or with shallow longitudinal furrows. Sori at first completely enclosed by the spatheoles, later more or less visible. Sterile cells firmly packed in irregular groups, collapsed, 9–14(–17) μm long, usually larger than the spores, hyaline to pale yellow; wall 0.6–1.0 μm thick. In SEM, smooth, sometimes partially rugulose. Spores subglobose, slightly irregular, broadly ellipsoidal, ellipsoidal or ovoid, (6.5–)7.5–9.5(–10.5) × (6–)7–8.5(–9.5) (8.6 ± 0.6 × 7.8 ± 0.6) μm (n = 300), medium reddish brown; wall evenly thickened, 0.5–0.7 μm thick, smooth. In SEM, minutely echinulate-verruculose, ornaments up to 0.2 μm high, densely punctate between the main ornaments.
Material examined: Burkina Faso, Cascades Region, Léraba Province, Sindou Department, Tourni, dam, riverbed with seeping water, fallow fields, 10°46′ N, 05°09′ W, alt. 200–500 m, on Anadelphia leptocoma (Trin.) Pilg. (Poaceae), 28 October 1997, S. Lægaard, H. Mipro & T. Soberé, no. 18421 (SOMF 30250, holotype; MA 690545, isotype).
GenBank numbers: MW599285(ITS), MW599284 (LSU).
Notes: Anadelphia Hack. is a small genus of Poaceae Barnhart, tribe Andropogoneae Dumort., subtribe Andropogoninae J. Presl (including 514 species in 25 genera) (Soreng et al. 2017). Anadelphia comprises 14 species (Clayton et al. 2015) characterized by compound inflorescence composed of racemes. Anadelphia leptocoma is distributed in Tropical Africa (from Senegal to Zambia), mainly in West Tropical Africa (Clayton et al. 2015; Poilecot et al. 2015; Ibrahim et al. 2018). It is a characteristic grass of the savannahs (Poilecot et al. 2015).
Seven smut fungi have been previously reported on hosts in Anadelphia and its closely related genera, Elymandra Stapf and Monocymbium Stapf: Anthracocystis anadelphiae (Vienn.-Bourg.) McTaggart & R.G. Shivas, Jamesdicksonia anadelphiae (Vienn.-Bourg.) Piątek, J. anadelphiae-trichaetae T. Denchev & Denchev, Macalpinomyces elymandrae (Vienn.-Bourg.) Vánky, Sporisorium anadelphiae-trichaetae T. Denchev & Denchev, S. monocymbii (Syd.) Vánky, and Tilletia elymandrae Vienn.-Bourg. (Denchev and Denchev 2016). Sporisorium anadelphiae-leptocomae can be easily distinguished from S. anadelphiae-trichaetae by having (i) sori that destroy the racemes entirely, while the sori of S. anadelphiae-trichaetae affect only the spikelets, and (ii) minutely echinulate-verruculose spores with ornaments up to 0.2 μm in height, while S. anadelphiae-trichaetae possesses moderately echinulate spores, with spinules up to 0.7 μm in height. The sori of Sporisorium monocymbii, destroying spikelets or groups of spikelets and forming a very characteristic, strongly branched body (see Figs. 45, 47, 48 in Denchev and Denchev 2016), also differ from those of S. anadelphiae-leptocomae. Additionally, Sporisorium monocymbii has minutely echinulate spores, with spinules up to 0.3(–0.4) μm in height and larger sterile cells, 9–19(–24) μm long vs 9–14(–17) μm long for S. anadelphiae-leptocomae.
The phylogenetic analysis of Sporisorium, based on combined ITS and LSU sequences resulted in a similar topology to previous analyses (McTaggart et al. 2012a). Sporisorium anadelphiae-leptocomae formed a statistically very well supported clade (100% bootstrap) together with S. queenslandicum Vánky et al., infecting Sehima nervosa (Roem. & Schult.) Stapf, and S. exsertum (McAlpine) L. Guo, infecting Themeda spp. Sister to this clade is a group containing S. rarum R.G. Shivas et al., S. ryleyi Vánky & R.G. Shivas, S. paspali (Speg.) Vánky, S. porosum (Langdon) McTaggart & R.G. Shivas, S. trachypogonicola Vánky & C. Vánky, S. vanderystii (Henn.) Langdon & Full., and S. wynaadense (Sundaram) Vánky & R.G. Shivas. All of the species from these two clades are parasitizing grasses from the tribe Andropogoneae, with the exception of S. paspali, infecting Paspalum spp., belonging to the tribe Paspaleae (Fig.*).
The smut fungi of Burkina Faso are very poorly known with only six species reported from this country: Anthracocystis ehrenbergii (J.G. Kühn) McTaggart & R.G. Shivas, A. livingstoneana (Vánky) McTaggart & R.G. Shivas, Moesziomyces penicillariae (Bref.) Vánky, Sporisorium reilianum (J.G. Kühn) Langdon & Full., S. scitamineum (Syd) M. Piepenbr. et al., and S. sorghi Ehrenb. ex Link (Vánky et al. 2011; Piepenbring et al. 2020).
