A novel taxon, identified as epiphytic sooty molds on Syngonium podophyllum from Thailand, has been discovered. A new genus, Alloscorias gen. nov., has been established to accommodate this new taxon, named A. syngonii. Phylogenetic analyses of sequence data and morphological support confirm that Alloscorias is a distinct genus within Readerielliopsidaceae (Capnodiales).
A novel taxon was found as epiphytic sooty molds on Syngonium podophyllum from Thailand. A new genus, Alloscorias gen. nov. is established to accommodate a novel taxon, named A. syngonii. The morphological characters of the species are ob-served in culture. Phylogenetic analyses of a combined dataset of LSU, ITS, TEF-1 alpha and RPB2 sequence data together with morphological support that Alloscorias is a distinct genus within Readerielliopsidaceae (Capnodiales). Detailed descriptions and illustrations are provided in this paper.
