Ciudad Universitaria, C1428EHA, Buenos Aires, Argentina 22Manaaki Whenua Landcare Research, Private Bag 92170, Auckland, New Zealand Abstract: With the advance to one scientic name for each fungal species, the generic names in the class Sordariomycetes Key words: typied by sexual and asexual morphs are evaluated based on their type species to determine if they compete with each Ascomycota other for use or protection. Recommendations are made for which of the competing generic names should be used based nomenclature on criteria such as priority, number of potential names changes, and freuency of use. Some recommendations for well- pleomorphic fungi known genera include Arthrinium over Apiospora, Colletotrichum over Glomerella, Menispora over Zignoëlla, Microdochium protected lists over Monographella, Nigrospora over Khuskia, and Plectosphaerella over Plectosporium. All competing generic names taxonomy are listed in a table of recommended names along with the reuired action. If priority is not accorded to sexually typied generic names after 2017, only four names would reuire formal protection: Chaetosphaerella over Oedemium, Diatrype over Libertella, Microdochium over Monographella, and Phaeoacremonium over Romellia and Togninia. Concerning species in the recommended genera, one replacement name (Xylaria benjaminii nom. nov.) is introduced, and the following new combinations are made: Arthrinium sinense, Chloridium caesium, C. chloroconium, C. gonytrichii, Corollospora marina, C. parvula, C. ramulosa, Juncigena fruticosae, Melanospora simplex, Seimatosporium massarina, Sporoschisma daemonoropis, S. taitense, Torpedospora mangrovei, Xylaria penicilliopsis, and X. termiticola combs. nov.

INTRODUCTION: Calosphaeriales, Chaetosphaeriales, Coniochaetales, Conio- scyphales, Cordanales, Coronophorales, Glomerellales, The class Sordariomycetes is composed of three subclasses Halosphaeriales, Melanosporales, Microascales, Phylla- and about 21 orders including many genera with species that chorales, Pleurotheciales, Savoryellales, Sordariales, express themselves in both their sexual and asexual morphs. Togniniales, Torpedosporales, and Xylariales. ARTICLE Based on the obsolete version of Article 59 of the outdated International Code of Botanical Nomenclature (McNeill et al. 2006), these morphs had previously been described in RECOMMENDATIONS FOR GENERIC NAMES different genera resulting in more than one scientic name for a single fungal species. With the change to the International (A) = a name typied by an asexual morph, and (S) = a name Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants (ICN; typied by a sexual morph. McNeill et al. 2012), two or more names for different morphs of the same species are no longer allowed. Although determining Amphisphaeriales which name to use generally follows the principle of priority of publication at the family, generic and species level, Use Dyrithiopsis L.

Abstract: The new genus Morinagamyces is introduced herein to accommodate the fungus Apiosordaria vermicularis as inferred from a phylogenetic study based on sequences of the internal transcribed spacer region (ITS), the nuclear rDNA large subunit (LSU), and partial fragments of ribosomal polymerase II subunit 2 (rpb2) and β-tubulin (tub2) genes. Morinagamyces vermicularis was analyzed for the production of secondary metabolites, resulting in the isolation of a new depsipeptide named morinagadepsin (1), and the already known chaetone B (3). While the planar structure of 1 was elucidated by extensive 1D- and 2D-NMR analysis and high-resolution mass spectrometry, the absolute configuration of the building blocks Ala, Val, and Leu was determined as -L by Marfey’s method. The configuration of the 3-hydroxy-2-methyldecanyl unit was assigned as 22R,23R by Citation: Harms, K.; Surup, F.; Stadler, M.; Stchigel, A.M.; J-based configuration analysis and Mosher’s method after partial hydrolysis of the morinagadepsin Marin-Felix, Y.

Mayers1, T.C. Harrington1, H. Masuya2, B.H. Jordal 3, D.L. McNew1, H.-H. Shih4, F. Roets5, G.J. Kietzka5 Key words Abstract Ambrosia beetles farm specialised fungi in sapwood tunnels and use pocket-like organs called my- cangia to carry propagules of the fungal cultivars. Ambrosia fungi selectively grow in mycangia, which is central 14 new taxa to the symbiosis, but the history of coevolution between fungal cultivars and mycangia is poorly understood. The Microascales fungal family Ceratocystidaceae previously included three ambrosial genera (Ambrosiella, Meredithiella, and Phia­ Scolytinae lophoropsis), each farmed by one of three distantly related tribes of ambrosia beetles with unique and relatively symbiosis large mycangium types. Studies on the phylogenetic relationships and evolutionary histories of these three genera two new typifications were expanded with the previously unstudied ambrosia fungi associated with a fourth mycangium type, that of the tribe Scolytoplatypodini. Using ITS rDNA barcoding and a concatenated dataset of six loci (28S rDNA, 18S rDNA, tef1-α, tub, mcm7, and rpl1), a comprehensive phylogeny of the family Ceratocystidaceae was developed, including Inodoromyces interjectus gen. & sp. nov., a non-ambrosial species that is closely related to the family. Three minor morphological variants of the pronotal disk mycangium of the Scolytoplatypodini were associated with ambrosia fungi in three respective clades of Ceratocystidaceae: Wolfgangiella gen.

    available online at www.studiesinmycology.org StudieS in Mycology 68: 193–202. 2011. doi:10.3114/sim.2011.68.08 Discovery of the teleomorph of the hyphomycete, Sterigmatobotrys macrocarpa, and epitypification of the genus to holomorphic status M. Réblová1* and K.A. Seifert2 1Department of Taxonomy, Institute of Botany of the Academy of Sciences, CZ – 252 43, Průhonice, Czech Republic; 2Biodiversity (Mycology and Botany), Agriculture and Agri- Food Canada, Ottawa, Ontario, K1A 0C6, Canada *Correspondence: Martina Réblová, [email protected] Abstract: Sterigmatobotrys macrocarpa is a conspicuous, lignicolous, dematiaceous hyphomycete with macronematous, penicillate conidiophores with branches or metulae arising from the apex of the stipe, terminating with cylindrical, elongated conidiogenous cells producing conidia in a holoblastic manner. The discovery of its teleomorph is documented here based on perithecial ascomata associated with fertile conidiophores of S. macrocarpa on a specimen collected in the Czech Republic; an identical anamorph developed from ascospores isolated in axenic culture. The teleomorph is morphologically similar to species of the genera Carpoligna and Chaetosphaeria, especially in its nonstromatic perithecia, hyaline, cylindrical to fusiform ascospores, unitunicate asci with a distinct apical annulus, and tapering paraphyses. Identical perithecia were later observed on a herbarium specimen of S. macrocarpa originating in New Zealand. Sterigmatobotrys includes two species, S. macrocarpa, a taxonomic synonym of the type species, S. elata, and S. uniseptata. Because no teleomorph was described in the protologue of Sterigmatobotrys, we apply Article 59.7 of the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature. We epitypify (teleotypify) both Sterigmatobotrys elata and S. macrocarpa to give the genus holomorphic status, and the name S.

    Journal of Basic & Applied Mycology 2 (2011): 1-27 1 © 2010 by The Society of Basic & Applied Mycology (EGYPT) An annotated check-list of Ascomycota reported from soil and other terricolous substrates in Egypt A. F. Moustafa* & A. M. Abdel – Azeem Department of Botany, Faculty of Science, University of Suez *Corresponding author: e-mail: Canal, Ismailia 41522, Egypt [email protected] Received 26/6/2010, Accepted 6/4 /2011 ____________________________________________________________________________________________________ Abstract: By screening of available sources of information, it was possible to figure out a range of 310 taxa that could be representing Egyptian Ascomycota up to the present time. In this treatment, concern was given to ascomycetous fungi of almost all terricolous substrates while phytopathogenic and aquatic forms are not included. According to the scheme proposed by Kirk et al. (2008), reported taxa in Egypt belonged to 88 genera in 31 families, and 11 orders. In view of this scheme, very few numbers of taxa remained without certain taxonomic position (incertae sedis). It is also worthy to be mentioned that among species included in the list, twenty-eight are introduced to the ascosporic mycobiota as novel taxa based on type materials collected from Egyptian habitats. The list includes also 19 species which are considered new records to the general mycobiota of Egypt. When species richness and substrate preference, as important ecological parameters, are considered, it has been noticed that Egyptian Ascomycota shows some interesting features noteworthy to be mentioned. At the substrate level, clay soils, came first by hosting a range of 108 taxa followed by desert soils (60 taxa).

    Persoonia 37, 2016: 82–105 www.ingentaconnect.com/content/nhn/pimj RESEARCH ARTICLE http://dx.doi.org/10.3767/003158516X690475 Resolution of morphology-based taxonomic delusions: Acrocordiella, Basiseptospora, Blogiascospora, Clypeosphaeria, Hymenopleella, Lepteutypa, Pseudapiospora, Requienella, Seiridium and Strickeria W.M. Jaklitsch1,2, A. Gardiennet3, H. Voglmayr2 Key words Abstract Fresh material, type studies and molecular phylogeny were used to clarify phylogenetic relationships of the nine genera Acrocordiella, Blogiascospora, Clypeosphaeria, Hymenopleella, Lepteutypa, Pseudapiospora, Ascomycota Requienella, Seiridium and Strickeria. At first sight, some of these genera do not seem to have much in com- Dothideomycetes mon, but all were found to belong to the Xylariales, based on their generic types. Thus, the most peculiar finding new genus is the phylogenetic affinity of the genera Acrocordiella, Requienella and Strickeria, which had been classified in phylogenetic analysis the Dothideomycetes or Eurotiomycetes, to the Xylariales. Acrocordiella and Requienella are closely related but pyrenomycetes distinct genera of the Requienellaceae. Although their ascospores are similar to those of Lepteutypa, phylogenetic Pyrenulales analyses do not reveal a particularly close relationship. The generic type of Lepteutypa, L. fuckelii, belongs to the Sordariomycetes Amphisphaeriaceae. Lepteutypa sambuci is newly described. Hymenopleella is recognised as phylogenetically Xylariales distinct from Lepteutypa, and Hymenopleella hippophaëicola is proposed as new name for its generic type, Spha­ eria (= Lepteutypa) hippophaës. Clypeosphaeria uniseptata is combined in Lepteutypa. No asexual morphs have been detected in species of Lepteutypa. Pseudomassaria fallax, unrelated to the generic type, P. chondrospora, is transferred to the new genus Basiseptospora, the genus Pseudapiospora is revived for P. corni, and Pseudomas­ saria carolinensis is combined in Beltraniella (Beltraniaceae).

  • On a New Species of Chaetomidium, C. Vicugnae, with a Cephalothecoid
    On a new species of Chaetomidium, C. vicugnae, with a cepha- lothecoid peridium and its relationships with Chaetomiaceae (Sordariales) Francesco DOVERI Abstract: a sample of vicuña dung from a Chilean coastal desert was submitted to the attention of the au- thor, who at first sight noticed the presence of different pyrenomycetes. several hairy cleistothecia particu- larly caught his attention and were subjected to a morphological study that proved them to belong to a new species of Chaetomidium. after mentioning the main features of Sordariales and Chaetomiaceae, the author describes in detail the macro-and microscopic characters of the new species Chaetomidium vicugnae Ascomycete.org, 10 (2) : 86–96 and compares it with all the other Chaetomidium spp. with a cephalothecoid peridium. The extensive dis- Mise en ligne le 22/04/2018 cussion focuses on the characterization and relationships of the genus Chaetomidium and Chaetomidium 10.25664/ART-0231 vicugnae within the complex family Chaetomiaceae. all collections of the related species are recorded and dung is regarded as the preferential substrate. Keys are provided to sexual morph genera of Chaetomiaceae and to Chaetomidium species with a cephalothecoid peridium. Keywords: ascomycota, coprophily, germination, homoplasy, morphology, peridial frame, systematics. Introduction zing the importance of a future systematic study of vicuña dung for a better knowledge of the generic relationships in this family.
