Fungal diversity notes 1–110: taxonomic and phylogenetic contributions to fungal species

Abstract

This paper is a compilation of notes on 110 fungal taxa, including one new family, 10 new genera, and 76 new species, representing a wide taxonomic and geographic range. The new family, Paradictyoarthriniaceae is introduced based on its distinct lineage in Dothideomycetes and its unique morphology. The family is sister to Biatriosporaceae and Roussoellaceae . The new genera are Allophaeosphaeria ( Phaeosphaeriaceae ), Amphibambusa ( Amphisphaeriaceae ), Brunneomycosphaerella ( Capnodiales genera incertae cedis ), Chaetocapnodium ( Capnodiaceae ), Flammeascoma ( Anteagloniaceae ), Multiseptospora ( Pleosporales genera incertae cedis ), Neogaeumannomyces ( Magnaporthaceae ), Palmiascoma ( Bambusicolaceae ), Paralecia ( Squamarinaceae ) and Sarimanas ( Melanommataceae ). The newly described species are the Ascomycota Aliquandostipite manochii , Allophaeosphaeria dactylidis , A. muriformia , Alternaria cesenica , Amphibambusa bambusicola , Amphisphaeria sorbi , Annulohypoxylon thailandicum , Atrotorquata spartii , Brunneomycosphaerella laburni , Byssosphaeria musae , Camarosporium aborescentis , C. aureum , C. frutexensis , Chaetocapnodium siamensis , Chaetothyrium agathis , Colletotrichum sedi , Conicomyces pseudotransvaalensis , Cytospora berberidis , C. sibiraeae , Diaporthe thunbergiicola , Diatrype palmicola , Dictyosporium aquaticum , D. meiosporum , D. thailandicum , Didymella cirsii , Dinemasporium nelloi , Flammeascoma bambusae , Kalmusia italica , K. spartii , Keissleriella sparticola , Lauriomyces synnematicus , Leptosphaeria ebuli , Lophiostoma pseudodictyosporium , L. ravennicum , Lophiotrema eburnoides , Montagnula graminicola , Multiseptospora thailandica , Myrothecium macrosporum , Natantispora unipolaris , Neogaeumannomyces bambusicola , Neosetophoma clematidis , N. italica , Oxydothis atypica , Palmiascoma gregariascomum , Paraconiothyrium nelloi , P. thysanolaenae , Paradictyoarthrinium tectonicola , Paralecia pratorum , Paraphaeosphaeria spartii , Pestalotiopsis digitalis , P. dracontomelon , P. italiana , Phaeoisaria pseudoclematidis , Phragmocapnias philippinensis , Pseudocamarosporium cotinae , Pseudocercospora tamarindi , Pseudotrichia rubriostiolata , P. thailandica , Psiloglonium multiseptatum , Saagaromyces mangrovei , Sarimanas pseudofluviatile , S. shirakamiense , Tothia spartii , Trichomerium siamensis , Wojnowicia dactylidicola , W. dactylidis and W. lonicerae . The Basidiomycota Agaricus flavicentrus , A. hanthanaensis , A. parvibicolor , A. sodalis , Cantharellus luteostipitatus , Lactarius atrobrunneus , L. politus , Phylloporia dependens and Russula cortinarioides are also introduced. Epitypifications or reference specimens are designated for Hapalocystis berkeleyi , Meliola tamarindi , Pallidocercospora acaciigena , Phaeosphaeria musae , Plenodomus agnitus , Psiloglonium colihuae , P. sasicola and Zasmidium musae while notes and/or new sequence data are provided for Annulohypoxylon leptascum , A. nitens , A. stygium , Biscogniauxia marginata , Fasciatispora nypae , Hypoxylon fendleri , H. monticulosum , Leptosphaeria doliolum , Microsphaeropsis olivacea , Neomicrothyrium , Paraleptosphaeria nitschkei , Phoma medicaginis and Saccotheciaceae . A full description of each species is provided with light micrographs (or drawings). Molecular data is provided for 90 taxa and used to generate phylogenetic trees to establish a natural classification for species.
