Taxonomy and phylogeny of sp. nov. and (Hypocreales, Stachybotryaceae) on from Thailand.

Background: is introduced as a leaf-based novel saprobic species from . Multi-gene phylogenetic analyses of internal transcribed spacer (ITS), RNA polymerase II second largest subunit (rpb2) and β-tubulin (tub2) data support the taxonomic placement of the new collection in (Hypocreales, Stachybotryaceae). The novel species is characterised by cup-shaped sporodochia covered by numerous peripheral setae and simple hyaline, guttulate conidia produced by the ultimate branches (phialides) of conidiophores.

Fungal diversity notes 1512-1610: taxonomic and phylogenetic contributions on genera and species of fungal taxa.

This article is the 14th in the Fungal Diversity Notes series, wherein we report 98 taxa distributed in two phyla, seven classes, 26 orders and 50 families which are described and illustrated. Taxa in this study were collected from Australia, Brazil, Burkina Faso, Chile, China, Cyprus, Egypt, France, French Guiana, India, Indonesia, Italy, Laos, Mexico, Russia, Sri Lanka, Thailand, and Vietnam. There are 59 new taxa, 39 new hosts and new geographical distributions with one new combination.

sp. nov., , and (, ) Found on Bananas in China and Thailand.

A study was conducted to investigate saprobic fungal niches of (Hypocreales) associated with leaves of (banana) in China and Thailand. Three hyphomycetous taxa were collected during the dry season of 2018 and 2019. After a careful phenotypic characterization (both macro- and microscopically) and a phylogenetic tree reconstruction using a concatenated sequence dataset of internal transcribed spacer (ITS), calmodulin (), RNA polymerase II second largest subunit (2), β-tubulin (2), and the translation elongation factor 1-alpha (1) gene regions, we report three species of Stachybotryaceae.

Taxonomy and phylogenetic appraisal of sp. nov. and (Didymosphaeriaceae, Pleosporales) on Musaceae from Thailand.

Tropical plants host a range of fungal niches including endophytes, pathogens, epiphytes and saprobes. A study undertaken to discover the saprobic fungal species associated with sp. (banana) from northern Thailand found two hyphomycetous taxa of (Didymosphaeriaceae, Pleosporales).
