During an investigation of Xylariaceae in China from 2019 to 2020, isolates representing eight Nemania species were collected, with six of them being new to science, one being a new record for China, and one being a known species. The study provides detailed descriptions of the morphological characteristics of all species, along with discussions on prevailing contradictions in generic concepts.
During an investigation of Xylariaceae from 2019 to 2020, isolates representing eight Nemania (Xylariacese) species were collected from Yunnan, Guizhou and Hainan Provinces in China. Morphological and multi-gene phylogenetic analyses, based on combined ITS, alpha-actin, rpb2 and beta-tubulin sequences, confirmed that six of them are new to science, viz. Nemania camelliae, N. changningensis, N. cyclobalanopsina, N. feicuiensis, N. lishuicola and N. rubi; one is a new record (N. caries) for China and one is a known species (N. diffusa). Morphological descriptions and illustrations of all species are detailed. In addition, the characteristics of Nemania are summarised and prevailing contradictions in generic concepts are discussed.
