Under the rules for naming of fungi with pleomorphic life-cycles adopted in July 2011, nomenclaturally correct name fungus causing current ash dieback Europe is determined to be Hymenoscyphus fraxineus, basionym Chalara fraxinea, and pseudoalbidus as a taxonomic synonym H. fraxineus.
Fungi in the class Leotiomycetes are ecologically diverse, including mycorrhizas, endophytes of roots and leaves, plant pathogens, aquatic aero-aquatic hyphomycetes, mammalian saprobes. These fungi commonly detected cultures from diseased tissue environmental DNA extracts. The identification specimens such character-poor samples increasingly relies on sequencing. However, current classification is still largely based morphologically defined taxa, especially at higher taxonomic levels....
Recent molecular analyses separate Hymenoscyphus pseudoalbidus (causal agent of ash dieback in Europe) from the morphologically scarcely distinguishable H. albidus . was reported (as " Lambertella albida ") on petioles Fraxinus mandshurica Japan. Phylogenetic analysis present study shows Japanese L. to be conspecific with but a higher genetic variability compared European isolates. The presence croziers at ascus base found clear distinguishing character Our phylogenetic combined ITS and...
Five species of Hymenoscyphus that fruit on black stromatized parts dead leaves deciduous trees are presented, giving details their morphological and ecological characteristics. Several these have previously been misplaced in rutstroemiaceous genera because the presence a substratal stroma. However, heteropolar, scutuloid ascospores with an often hook-like lateral protrusion at rounded apex ascus apical ring Hymenoscyphus-type represent two reliable characteristics that, together molecular...
Nomenclatural type definitions are one of the most important concepts in biological nomenclature. Being physical objects that can be re-studied by other researchers, types permanently link taxonomy (an artificial agreement to classify diversity) with nomenclature name diversity). Two proposals amend International Code Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants (ICN), allowing DNA sequences alone (of any region extent) serve as taxon names voucherless fungi (mainly putative taxa from...
A list of all generic names that have been connected with the Orbiliomycetes is provided. Recommendations are made as to which should be used in accordance rules and different concepts. There a mismatch current concepts within regarding two morphs: narrow concept for asexual morphs, but broad relies on sexual morphs. As consequence, many more established number previous artificial, since they were based single characters without molecular support. In order provide solutions this mismatch, we...
he discomycete <em>Hymenoscyphus subcarneus</em> was found to grow parasitic on the liverwort <em>Cephalozia catenulata</em> in Białowieża National Park (Poland), and is described illustrated from fresh collection. Two characters, ascus apical ring structure of <em>Calycina</em> type contents living paraphyses (multiguttulate by low-refractive vacuolar bodies), have not been reported previously. In addition, a dried collection <em>Pohlia...
Morphological and phylogenetic data are used to revise the genus Torrendiella. The type species, described from Europe, is retained within Rutstroemiaceae. However, Torrendiella species reported Australasia, southern South America China were found be phylogenetically distinct have been recombined in newly proposed Hymenotorrendiella. Hymenotorrendiella distinguished morphologically Rutstroemia having a Hymenoscyphus-type rather than Sclerotinia-type ascus apex. Zoellneria, linked...
Based on phylogenetic analyses of a multi-gene matrix nuITS-LSUrDNA, RPB2 and TUB2 sequences morphology, xylariaceous species with uni- to pauciperitheciate stromata ascospores having spirally coiling (helicoid) germ slit are revised reclassified, including detailed descriptions illustrations. The genus Helicogermslita is redefined restricted seven massive, erumpent, clypeus-like carbonaceous stromata, Rosellinia somala combined in . Within the core Xylariaceae , poorly known Leptomassaria...
The monotypic genus Fuscoscypha possesses hairs similar as in the Hyaloscypha but differs by grey-olivaceous-brown apothecia with short dark stipes.Molecular data proves that pigmentation does not permit delimitation of a separate genus, white and brown taxa do form clades.Followingly, is here considered to be synonym Hyaloscypha.Three treated four species have an olivaceous-brown excipulum.Two are saprophytes on decaying leaves fruits angiosperms: F. acicularum, type Fuscoscypha,...
Glarea lozoyensis is an anamorphic ascomycete that produces pneumocandin B0, the starting molecule for synthesis of antifungal drug caspofungin (CANCIDAS™). was first isolated in 1985 from a water sample Madrid, Spain. Until now, only original strain known, but we have discovered new strains Argentina and USA. Molecular phylogenetic reference to 28S rDNA database antibiotic-producing fungi quickly identified these as being conspecific with G. lozoyensis. Bayesian inference phylogeny ITS,...
The phylogeny of Orbilia aurantiorugra and related species is inferred from ITS sequence data. aurantiorubra redefined according to vital taxonomy. Integrated analyses molecular morphological data, ecological (e.g. substrate) geographical origin suggest the existence three new species, which are described in this paper: xanthoguttulata Europe, O. succulenticola Canary Islands, jugulospora Ethiopia (Africa) Taiwan (Southeast Asia).
Abstract Laetinaevia marina is a frequent ascomycetous fungus that widely distributed on the seashores of Scandinavia and Great Britain. It grows fronds Fucales (Phaeophyceae) are washed ashore lie decaying at high tide mark or further up beach. one few described marine discomycetes. In current generic concept it regarded as member Naevioideae (Dermateaceae Mollisiaceae), while has previously been placed in genus Orbilia (Orbiliaceae). We studied fresh collections, live dead state, to...
The new rules formulated in Article 59 of the International Code Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants (ICN) will cause numerous, often undesirable, name changes, when only phylogenetically defined clades are named. Our task is to fungal taxa not just clades. Two suggestions made here that may help alleviate some disadvantages system. (1) Officially an epithet coined a list-demoted genus older than oldest one available list-accepted would have be recombined accepted genus. We recommend...
