This article introduces fungal species associated with woody oil plants, which are important in terms of food security, ecology, agriculture, and industrial manufacturing. The article provides descriptions, illustrations, and phylogenetic trees for various fungal taxa, as well as introducing new taxa and host/country records.
This is the ninth in a series of Mycosphere notes wherein we provide notes on various fungal taxa in Dothideomycetes. In this set of notes, we focus on species associated with woody oil plants, which are important in terms of food security, ecology, agriculture and for industrial manufacturing. Eighty-five fungal taxa were identified in three orders (Muyocopronales, Pleosporales and Valsariales). Thirty-four species (belonging to 16 families) were identified in Pleosporales, one species was classified in Valsariales and one species was recognized in Muyocopronales. We introduce two new genera Oleaginea (Lophiostomataceae) and Neobrevicollum (Neohendersoniaceae) and 16 new species, Acrocalymma paeoniae, Corynespora idesiae, Flabellascoma pistaciae, Loculosulcatispora paeoniae, Lophiostoma oleae, Montagnula verniciae, Neobrevicollum oleae, Neocucurbitaria pistaciicola, Nigrograna acericola, Ni. oleae, Ni. sichuanensis, Ni. verniciae, Oleaginea sichuanensis, Palmiascoma acericola, Paramonodictys paeoniae, Pseudothyridariella idesiae. New host/country records are provided for Acrocalymma pterocarpi, Angustimassarina kunmingense, Austropleospora ochracea, Crassiparies quadrisporus, Loculosulcatispora hongheensis, Lophiotrema hydei, Lophiotrema neoarundinaria, Lophiostoma chiangraiense, Lophiostoma japonica, Lophiostoma montanae, Montagnula donacina, Muyocopron lithocarpi, Neokalmusia aquibrunnea, Neovaginatispora fuckelii, Nigrograna hydei, Ni. locuta-pollinis, Ni. magnoliae, Pseudochaetosphaeronema chiangraiense, P. magnoliae, and Valsaria insitiva. Three new asexual/sexual morph connections were made for Acrocalymma pterocarpi, Austropleospora ochracea and Loculosulcatispora hongheensis. A morphological description of one known species, Nigrograna locuta-pollinis, is provided. All taxa are described and illustrated, and phylogenetic trees are presented to show their phylogenetic placements.
