Voglmayr1, W.M. Jaklitsch1 Key words Abstract Following the abolishment of dual nomenclature, Stilbospora is recognised as having priority over Prosthecium. The type species of Stilbospora, S. macrosperma, is the correct name for P. ellipsosporum, the type Alnecium species of Prosthecium. The closely related genus Stegonsporium is maintained as distinct from Stilbospora based Calospora on molecular phylogeny, morphology and host range. Stilbospora longicornuta and S. orientalis are described as Calosporella new species from Carpinus betulus and C. orientalis, respectively. They differ from the closely related Stilbospora ITS macrosperma, which also occurs on Carpinus, by longer, tapering gelatinous ascospore appendages and by dis- LSU tinct LSU, ITS rDNA, rpb2 and tef1 sequences. The asexual morphs of Stilbospora macrosperma, S. longicornuta molecular phylogeny and S. orientalis are morphologically indistinguishable; the connection to their sexual morphs is demonstrated by Phaeodiaporthe morphology and DNA sequences of single spore cultures derived from both ascospores and conidia. Both morphs rpb2 of the three Stilbospora species on Carpinus are described and illustrated. Other species previously recognised in systematics Prosthecium, specifically P. acerophilum, P. galeatum and P. opalus, are determined to belong to and are formally tef1 transferred to Stegonsporium. Isolates previously recognised as Stegonsporium pyriforme (syn. Prosthecium pyri­ forme) are determined to consist of three phylogenetically distinct lineages by rpb2 and tef1 sequence data, two of which are described as new species (S. protopyriforme, S. pseudopyriforme). Stegonsporium pyriforme is lectotypified and this species and Stilbospora macrosperma are epitypified.

    STUDIES IN MYCOLOGY 47: 131-139, 2002 Phylogeny of the genus Arachnomyces and its anamorphs and the establishment of Arachnomycetales, a new eurotiomycete order in the Ascomycota 1, 2 1* 3 2 C. F. C. Gibas , L. Sigler , R. C. Summerbell and R. S. Currah 1University of Alberta Microfungus Collection and Herbarium, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada; 2Department of Biological Sciences, University of Alberta, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada; 3Centraalbureau voor Schimmelcultures, Utrecht, The Netherlands Abstract: Arachnomyces is a genus of cleistothecial ascomycetes that has morphological similarities to the Onygenaceae and the Gymnoascaceae but is not accommodated well in either taxon. The phylogeny of the genus and its related anamorphs was studied using nuclear SSU rDNA gene sequences. Partial sequences were determined from ex-type cultures representing A. minimus, A. nodosetosus (anamorph Onychocola canadensis), A. kanei (anamorph O. kanei) and A. gracilis (anamorph Malbranchea sp.) and aligned together with published sequences of onygenalean and other ascomycetes. Phylogenetic analysis based on maximum parsimony showed that Arachnomyces is monophyletic, that it includes the hyphomycete Malbranchea sclerotica, and it forms a distinct lineage within the Eurotiomycetes. Based on molecular and morphological data, we propose the new order Arachnomycetales and a new family Arachnomycetaceae. All known anamorphs in this lineage are arthroconidial and have been placed either in Onychocola (A. nodosetosus, A. kanei) or in Malbranchea (A. gracilis). Onychocola is considered appropriate for disposition of the arthroconidial states of Arachnomyces and thus Malbranchea sclerotica and the unnamed anamorph of A. gracilis are redisposed as Onychocola sclerotica comb. nov. and O. gracilis sp. nov.

Mycosphere 10(1), 310–489, Doi 10.5943/mycosphere/10/1/7 Abstract Leotiomycetes is regarded as the inoperculate class of discomycetes within the phylum Ascomycota. Taxa are mainly characterized by asci with a simple pore blueing in Melzer’s reagent, although some taxa have lost this character. The monophyly of this class has been verified in several recent molecular studies. However, circumscription of the orders, families and generic level delimitation are still unsettled. This paper provides a modified backbone tree for the class Leotiomycetes based on phylogenetic analysis of combined ITS, LSU, SSU, TEF, and RPB2 loci. In the phylogenetic analysis, Leotiomycetes separates into 19 clades, which can be recognized as orders and order-level clades.

Millanes1, Paul Diederich2, Martin Westberg3 and Mats Wedin4 1Departamento de Biología y Geología, Física y Química Inorgánica, Universidad Rey Juan Carlos, E-28933 Móstoles, Spain; 2Musée national d’histoire naturelle, 25 rue Munster, L-2160 Luxembourg; 3Museum of Evolution, Norbyvägen 16, SE-75236 Uppsala, Sweden and 4Department of Botany, Swedish Museum of Natural History, P.O. Box 50007, SE-10405 Stockholm, Sweden Abstract The lichenicolous ‘heterobasidiomycetes’ belong in the Tremellomycetes (Agaricomycotina) and in the Pucciniomycotina. In this paper, we provide an introduction and review of these lichenicolous taxa, focusing on recent studies and novelties of their classification, phylogeny and evolution. Lichen-inhabiting fungi in the Pucciniomycotina are represented by only a small number of species included in the genera Chionosphaera, Cyphobasidium and Lichenozyma. The phylogenetic position of the lichenicolous representatives of Chionosphaera has, however, never been investigated by molecular methods. Phylogenetic analyses using the nuclear SSU, ITS, and LSU ribosomal DNA mar- kers reveal that the lichenicolous members of Chionosphaera form a monophyletic group in the Pucciniomycotina, distinct from Chionosphaera and outside the Chionosphaeraceae. The new genus Crittendenia is described to accommodate these lichen-inhabiting spe- cies. Crittendenia is characterized by minute synnemata-like basidiomata, the presence of clamp connections and aseptate tubular basidia from which 4–7 spores discharge passively, often in groups. Crittendenia, Cyphobasidium and Lichenozyma are the only lichenicolous lineages known so far in the Pucciniomycotina, whereas Chionosphaera does not include any lichenicolous taxa.

Stchigel1, D.A. Sutton2, J.F. Cano-Lira1, F.J. Cabañes3, L. Abarca3, K. Tintelnot4, B.L. Wickes5, D. García1, J. Guarro1 Key words Abstract We have performed a phenotypic and phylogenetic study of a set of fungi, mostly of veterinary origin, morphologically similar to the Chrysosporium asexual morph of Nannizziopsis vriesii (Onygenales, Eurotiomycetidae, animal infections Eurotiomycetes, Ascomycota). The analysis of sequences of the D1-D2 domains of the 28S rDNA, including rep- ascomycetes resentatives of the different families of the Onygenales, revealed that N. vriesii and relatives form a distinct lineage Chrysosporium within that order, which is proposed as the new family Nannizziopsiaceae. The members of this family show the mycoses particular characteristic of causing skin infections in reptiles and producing hyaline, thin- and smooth-walled, small, Nannizziopsiaceae mostly sessile 1-celled conidia and colonies with a pungent skunk-like odour. The phenotypic and multigene study Nannizziopsis results, based on ribosomal ITS region, actin and β-tubulin sequences, demonstrated that some of the fungi included Onygenales in this study were different from the known species of Nannizziopsis and Chrysosporium and are described here as reptiles new. They are N. chlamydospora, N. draconii, N. arthrosporioides, N. pluriseptata and Chrysosporium longisporum. Nannizziopsis chlamydospora is distinguished by producing chlamydospores and by its ability to grow at 5 °C.

  • Helicosporous Hyphomycetes from China
    Fungal Diversity Helicosporous hyphomycetes from China Guozhu Zhao1, Xingzhong Liu1 and Wenping Wu2 1Key Laboratory of Systematic Mycology & Lichenology, Institute of Microbiology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100080, PR China 2Novozymes China, Shangdi Zone, Haidian District, Beijing 100085, PR China Zhao, G.Z., Liu, X.Z, and Wu, W.P. (2007). Helicosporous hyphomycetes from China. Fungal Diversity 26: 313-524. Morphological studies of anamorphic taxa with helicospores (helicosporous fungi) were carried out based on observation of specimens collected in China and comparisons with descriptions in the literature. After examination of more than 300 freshly collected specimens and 100 herbarium specimens, we conclude that 71 species in 14 genera are presently known in mainland China, including 9 new species and 2 new combinations. The new species are Helicomyces denticulatus G.Z. Zhao, Xing Z. Liu & W.P. Wu; Helicosporium dentophorum G.Z. Zhao, Xing Z. Liu & W.P. Wu; Helicosporium sympodiophorum G.Z. Zhao, Xing Z. Liu & W.P. Wu; Helicoma hainanense G.Z. Zhao, Xing Z. Liu & W.P. Wu; Helicoma hyalonema G.Z. Zhao, Xing Z. Liu & W.P. Wu; Helicoma latifilum G.Z. Zhao, Xing Z. Liu & W.P. Wu; Helicoma scarabaeiforme G.Z. Zhao; Xenosporium latisporum G.Z. Zhao, Xing Z. Liu & W.P. Wu; Xenosporium ovatum G.Z. Zhao, Xing Z. Liu & W.P. Wu. The new combinations are Helicoma fumosum (P. Karst.) G.Z. Zhao, Xing Z. Liu & W.P. Wu; Helicofilia irregularis (P.M. Kirk) G.Z. Zhao, Xing Z. Liu & W.P. Wu. Another three new combinations, Helicoma casuarinae (Matsush.) G.Z. Zhao, Xing Z.
