Abstract A new entomopathogenic nematode, Steinernema colombiense n. sp., is described from Colombia. Morphological, molecular (28S and ITS rDNA sequence data) and cross-hybridisation studies were used for diagnostics and identification purposes. In addition, 28S and ITS rDNA sequence data were used to assess evolutionary relationships of the new species with other Steinernema spp. Morphological diagnostic features for S. colombiense n. sp. include morphometric features of the third-stage infective juvenile, including body length of 636 (549-732) μm, narrow body diam. (31 (22-36) μm), position of the excretory pore (35 (31-40) μm), tail length (41 (32-53) μm), D% = 29 (25-33) and E% = 205 (138-284). In addition, males of first and second generations are characterised by the morphology of the spicules and gubernaculum, the number and arrangement of the genital papillae and the excretory pore position (at 67 (56-76) and 54 (46-63) μm, for first and second generations, respectively). In addition to these traits, 28S and ITS rDNA sequences analyses both showed this species to be a distinct and unique entity.

Two new rust species, Raveneliapiepenbringiae and R.hernandezii (Pucciniales) on Senegalia spp. (Fabaceae) are described from the Neotropics (Panama, Costa Rica). A key to the species on neotropical Senegalia spp. is provided. Molecular phylogenetic analyses based on 28S rDNA sequence data suggest that the representatives of Senegalia rusts distributed in the neotropics evolved independently from species known from South Africa. This is further supported by the teliospore morphology, which is characterised by uniseriate cysts in the neotropical Senegalia rusts and contrasting multiseriate cysts in the paleotropic Ravenelia species that infect this host genus.

AbstractITS rDNA sequence data shows that Diploicia and Diplotomma species form a monophyletic clade distinct from other Buellia species. This indicates that Diplotomma merits acceptance as a genus, and suggests that Diploicia should be treated as a synonym of Diplotomma, the earlier name. The data also shows Diploicia subcanescens, considered the fertile counterpart in a species pair with D. canescens, is nested within D. canescens and should be treated as a synonym despite reported chemical differences. In addition, the molecular data support the distinctness of Diplotomma rivas-martinezii, a species restricted to gypsum rocks in Spain, from the widespread D. venustum, which grows on calcareous rocks. Aposymbiotic cultures suggest that D. rivas-martinezii also differs from D. venustum in its germination and isolation success rates. One new combination is made: Diplotomnta pulverulenta (Anzi) D. Hawksw. (syn. Abrothallus pulverulentus Anzi) for the lichenicolous species previously known as Buellia pulverulenta.

Two new species of Terfezia, Terfezia grisea and Terfezia cistophila, are documented from Spain and Greece, based on morphology and ITS-rDNA sequence data. Macro and micro descriptions with illustrations and ITS phylogenetic data for the two species are provided, which are discussed in relation to similar species in this genus and their host plants.

Podosphaera filipendulensis, a new teleomorph of powdery mildew was discovered on living leaves of Filipendula vestita (Rosaceae). It is the first species of powdery mildew that causes wilting and ultimately death of apical infected leaves of F. vestita. It is described, illustrated and compared with other Podosphaera species reported on Rosaceae and a key to all species reported on Rosaceae is provided. The phylogeny of this species has been inferred from internal transcribed spacer (ITS) rDNA sequence data. Phylogenetically, P. filipendulensis is close to P. ferruginea var. ferruginea and P. macularis but differs in having larger chasmothecia, smaller peridium cells, shorter, narrower and aseptate appendages, 8-spored asci and smaller ascospores.
