ISSN (online) 2154-8889 MYCOTAXON http://dx.doi.org/10.5248/123.205 Volume 123, pp. 205–211 January–March 2013 Pionnotes, a synonym of Dacrymyces rather than Fusarium Keith A. Seifert Biodiversity (Mycology & Botany), Agriculture & Agri-Food Canada, Ottawa, ON, K1A 0C6 Canada Correspondence to: [email protected] Abstract — The holotype of Fusarium capitatum, the type of the genus Pionnotes, was re-examined. Although Pionnotes was historically considered a synonym of Fusarium, it should henceforth be designated a synonym of Dacrymyces, with F. capitatum a synonym of D. chrysospermus. The generic name Pionnotes and species epithet capitatum should be evaluated further in future phylogenetic revisions of the Dacrymycetales, where most of the genera as currently understood are polyphyletic, and many common species such as D. chrysospermus may represent complexes of phylogenetic species. Key words — Hypocreales, Dacrymyces palmatus, Guepiniopsis, taxonomy Introduction ‘Pionnotes’ is an obscure term in the mycological lexicon. As a noun, it is mostly used in the taxonomy of Fusarium Link for colonies that have lost the discrete sporodochia that characterize the wild type. Its use as a descriptive term was probably proposed first in German by Appel & Wollenweber (1910: 28) as, “lagerartige Konidienansammlungen, die keine bestimmte Form haben und als Pionnotes mehr oder weniger ausgebreitete Schleime darstellen.” By the time of the first international meeting of Fusarium taxonomists held at the University of Wisconsin in Madison in August 1924, pionnote was firmly established in the English terminology of Fusarium taxonomy (Wollenweber et al. 1925). In the modern literature, the term is still often used although, surprisingly, rarely explicitly defined (Booth 1971, Nelson et al.
