VOLUME 13 DECEMBER 31, 2007 Notes on ascomycete systematics Nos. 4408 - 4750 H. Thorsten Lumbsch and Sabine M. Huhndorf (eds.) The Field Museum, Department of Botany, Chicago, USA Abstract Lumbsch, H. T. and S.M. Huhndorf (ed.) 2007. Notes on ascomycete systematics. Nos. 4408 – 4750. Myconet 13: 59 – 99. The present paper presents 342 notes on the taxonomy and nomenclature of ascomycetes (Ascomycota) at the generic and higher levels. Introduction The series ”Notes on ascomycete systematics” has been published in Systema Ascomycetum (1986-1998) and in Myconet since 1999 as hard copies and now at its new internet home at URL: http://www.fieldmuseum.org/myconet/. The present paper presents 342 notes on the taxonomy and nomenclature of ascomycetes (Ascomycota) at the generic and higher levels. The date of electronic publication is given within parentheses at the end of each entry. Notes 4476. Acanthotrema A.

New evidence inferred from phylogenetic analyses of nuclear ribosomal DNA sequence data together with abroad taxon sampling at family level suggest that the fungus is amember of Extremaceaeand therefore its previous placement within the broadly defined Teratosphaeriaceae was not supported. Anew genus Castanedospora is introduced to accommodate this species on the basis of its distinct morphology and phylogenetic position distant from Sporidesmiaceae sensu stricto in Sordariomycetes. The holotype material from Cuba was found to be exhausted and the Florida specimen, which agrees well with the original description, is selected as epitype. The fungus produced considerably long cylindrical to narrowly obclavate conidia

    Phylogeny of the Cetrarioid Core (Parmeliaceae) Based on Five

ELIX, Tassilo FEUERER, Ingvar KÄRNEFELT, Leena MYLLYS, Tiina RANDLANE, Andres SAAG, Soili STENROOS, Teuvo AHTI and Mark R. D. SEAWARD Abstract: Fourteen genera belong to a monophyletic core of cetrarioid lichens, Ahtiana, Allocetraria, Arctocetraria, Cetraria, Cetrariella, Cetreliopsis, Flavocetraria, Kaernefeltia, Masonhalea, Nephromopsis, Tuckermanella, Tuckermannopsis, Usnocetraria and Vulpicida. A total of 71 samples representing 65 species (of 90 worldwide) and all type species of the genera are included in phylogentic analyses based on a complete ITS matrix and incomplete sets of group I intron, -tubulin, GAPDH and mtSSU sequences. Eleven of the species included in the study are analysed phylogenetically for the first time, and of the 178 sequences, 67 are newly constructed. Two phylogenetic trees, one based solely on the complete ITS-matrix and a second based on total information, are similar, but not entirely identical. About half of the species are gathered in a strongly supported clade composed of the genera Allocetraria, Cetraria s. str., Cetrariella and Vulpicida. Arctocetraria, Cetreliopsis, Kaernefeltia and Tuckermanella are monophyletic genera, whereas Cetraria, Flavocetraria and Tuckermannopsis are polyphyletic. The taxonomy in current use is compared with the phylogenetic results, and future, probable or potential adjustments to the phylogeny are discussed. The single non-DNA character with a strong correlation to phylogeny based on DNA-sequences is conidial shape. The secondary chemistry of the poorly known species Cetraria annae is analyzed for the first time; the cortex contains usnic acid and atranorin, whereas isonephrosterinic, nephrosterinic, lichesterinic, protolichesterinic and squamatic acids occur in the medulla.

Triebel Abstract: Triebel, D.: Notes on the genus Sagediopsis (Verrucariales, Adelococcaceae). - Sendtnera 1: 273-280. ISSN 0944-0178. Notes on the genus Sagediopsis are given. Sagediopsis dissimilis Triebel is described as a new species and treated in detail. This lichenicolous fungus is confined to the lecideoid lichen Paraporpidia leptocarpa and occurs in Australasia. Sagediopsis is closely related to Adelococcus. Both genera are placed in a new family of the Verrucariales, Adelococcaceae Triebel. The family includes lichenicolous, non-lichenized taxa with persistent interascal filaments. 1. Introduction The order Verrucariales Mattick ex D. Hawksw. & 0. Eriksson includes until now only one family, the Verrucariaceae Zenker, which comprizes mainly lichenized ascortiycetes. It is characterized by globose, mainly clypeate and at least apically dark brown perithecioid ascomata. The hamathecial elements are confined to the ostiolar canal. The asci of the Vernicaria-type are broadly clavate, apically equally thick-walled and have constantly non- amyloid inner wall layers (see ERIKSSON 1981, Hawksworth & ERIKSSON 1986). The hymenial gel and the external ascus wall layer fi-equently turn red in Lugol's iodine solution. The majority of the c. 800 known Verrucarialean taxa develops two-biont lichen associations. Only a few lichenicolous lichens establishing three-biont associations are known (RAMBOLD& Triebel 1992, checklist C). Just recently, some groups of non-lichenized fijngi with lichenicolous, algicolous or hepaticolous life habit were placed in the order Verrucariales. These are the genera Endococcus Nyl., Merismatium Zopf, Muellerella Hepp ex Müll.

The species are primarily distinguished by the presence or absence of a central axis, the colour and shape of the spongy cushion and the nature of the secondary compounds. A key to all known species of Anzia from China is presented.

The two new genera, Borinquenotrema and Paratopeliopsis, are based on a combination of molecular sequence data and phenotype characters. Borinquenotrema, with the single new species B. soredicarpum, features rounded ascomata developing beneath and persistently covered with soralia and with an internal anatomy reminescent of Carbacanthographis; it is close to the tribe Ocellularieae. Paratopeliopsis, including the single new species P. caraibica, resembles a miniature Topeliopsis but differs in the distinctly farinose thallus and the small, brown ascospores; it is not closely related to the latter genus but belongs in tribe Thelotremateae. The other ten new species belong in the genera Acanthotrema, Clandestinotrema, Compositrema, Fissurina, Ocellularia, and Thalloloma. Acanthotrema alboisidiatum is closely related to A.
