Mycosphere 6(3), 290–326, Doi 10.5943/mycosphere/6/3/7 Abstract The Dothideomycetes include several genera whose ascomata can be considered as apothecia and thus would be grouped as discomycetes. Most genera are grouped in the family Patellariaceae, but also Agrynnaceae and other families. The Hysteriales include genera having hysterioid ascomata and can be confused with species in Patellariaceae with discoid apothecia if the opening is wide enough. In this study, genera of the family Patellariaceae were re-examined and characterized based on morphological examination. As a result of this study the genera Baggea, Endotryblidium, Holmiella, Hysteropatella, Lecanidiella, Lirellodisca, Murangium, Patellaria, Poetschia, Rhizodiscina, Schrakia, Stratisporella and Tryblidaria are retained in the family Patellariaceae. The genera Banhegyia, Pseudoparodia and Rhytidhysteron are excluded because of differing morphology and/or molecular data.

  • Pleosporomycetidae, Dothideomycetes) from a Freshwater Habitat in Thailand
    Mycological Progress (2020) 19:1031–1042 https://doi.org/10.1007/s11557-020-01609-0 ORIGINAL ARTICLE Mycoenterolobium aquadictyosporium sp. nov. (Pleosporomycetidae, Dothideomycetes) from a freshwater habitat in Thailand Mark S. Calabon1,2 & Kevin D. Hyde1,3 & E. B. Gareth Jones4 & Mingkwan Doilom5,6 & Chun-Fang Liao5,6 & Saranyaphat Boonmee1,2 Received: 25 May 2020 /Revised: 25 July 2020 /Accepted: 28 July 2020 # German Mycological Society and Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature 2020 Abstract A study of freshwater fungi in Thailand led to the discovery of Mycoenterolobium aquadictyosporium sp. nov. Evidence for the novelty and placement in Mycoenterolobium is based on comparison of morphological data. The new species differs from the type species, M. platysporum, in having shorter and wider conidia, and from M. flabelliforme in having much longer and wider conidia. The hyphomycetous genus Mycoenterolobium is similar to Cancellidium but differs in the arrangement of conidial rows of cells at the attachment point to the conidiophores. The conidia of the former are made up of rows of cells, radiating in a linear pattern from a single cell attached to the conidiophore, while in Cancellidium, adherent rows of septate branches radiate from the conidiophore. Cancellidium conidia also contain branched chains of blastic monilioid cells arising from the conidia, while these are lacking in Mycoenterolobium.AtmaturityinMycoenterolobium, the two conidial lobes unite and are closely appressed. Phylogenetic analyses based on a combined LSU, SSU, ITS, TEF1-α,andRPB2 loci sequence data support the placement of Mycoenterolobium aquadictyosporium close to the family Testudinaceae within Pleosporomycetidae, Dothideomycetes. The novel species Mycoenterolobium aquadictyosporium is described and illustrated and is compared with other morphologically similar taxa.

  • 9B Taxonomy to Genus
    Fungus and Lichen Genera in the NEMF Database Taxonomic hierarchy: phyllum > class (-etes) > order (-ales) > family (-ceae) > genus. Total number of genera in the database: 526 Anamorphic fungi (see p. 4), which are disseminated by propagules not formed from cells where meiosis has occurred, are presently not grouped by class, order, etc. Most propagules can be referred to as "conidia," but some are derived from unspecialized vegetative mycelium. A significant number are correlated with fungal states that produce spores derived from cells where meiosis has, or is assumed to have, occurred. These are, where known, members of the ascomycetes or basidiomycetes. However, in many cases, they are still undescribed, unrecognized or poorly known. (Explanation paraphrased from "Dictionary of the Fungi, 9th Edition.") Principal authority for this taxonomy is the Dictionary of the Fungi and its online database, www.indexfungorum.org. For lichens, see Lecanoromycetes on p. 3.

Despite their convergent morphology and physiology, RIF are phylogenetically highly diverse in Dothideomycetes. However, the positions of main groups of RIF in this class remain unclear due to the lack of a strong phylogenetic framework. Moreover, connections between rock-dwelling habit and other lifestyles found in Dothideomycetes such as plant pathogens, saprobes and lichen-forming fungi are still unexplored.

The ascus dehiscence mechanism in Bulgariella is Accepted 14 December 2017 unusual among Leotiomycetes. In this genus, asci lack a pore and open by splitting to form valves. KEYWORDS α α Phylogenetic analyses of partial sequences of translation elongation factor 1- (TEF1- ), the second Ascus dehiscence; Helotiales; largest subunit of RNA polymerase II (RPB2), and the 18S and 28S nuc rRNA genes determined that Pezizomycotina; phylogeny; Bulgariella belongs within Leotiomycetes but without conclusive assignment to an order or family.
