Analyses of partial rDNA sequences from both the small and large subunit genes of species of Ceratocystis s.l. support the contention that species that lack Chalara anamorphs, are resistant to cycloheximide, and have rhamnose in their cell walls should be assigned to Ophiostoma, whereas only species with Chalara anamorphs should be accommodated in Ceratocystis s.s. The data also show that Ceratocystiopsis is polyphyletic, and Sphaeronaemella fimicola appears to have little relation to either Ceratocystis or Ophiostoma. Key words: Ceratocystis, Ophiostoma, phylogeny, partial rDNA sequences.

A New Species

Abstract Background The Tibetan antelope Pantholops hodgsonii (Abel) (Artiodactyla: Bovidae) is an endangered species of mammal endemic to the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau. Parasites and parasitic diseases are considered to be important threats in the conservation of the Tibetan antelope. However, our present knowledge of the composition of the parasites of the Tibetan antelope remains limited. Methods Large numbers of nematode parasites were collected from a dead Tibetan antelope. The morphology of these nematode specimens was observed using light and scanning electron microscopy. The nuclear and mitochondrial DNA sequences, i.e. small subunit ribosomal DNA (18S), large subunit ribosomal DNA (28S), internal transcribed spacer (ITS) and cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 (cox1), were amplified and sequenced for molecular identification. Moreover, phylogenetic analyses were performed using maximum likelihood (ML) inference based on 28S and 18S + 28S + cox1 sequence data, respectively, in order to clarify the systematic status of these nematodes. Results Integrated morphological and genetic evidence reveals these nematode specimens to be a new species of pinworm Skrjabinema longicaudatum (Oxyurida: Oxyuridae). There was no intraspecific nucleotide variation between different individuals of S. longicaudatum n. sp. in the partial 18S, 28S, ITS and cox1 sequences. However, a high level of nucleotide divergence was revealed between the new species and its congeners in 28S (8.36%) and ITS (20.3–23.7%) regions, respectively. Molecular phylogenetic results suggest that the genus Skrjabinema should belong to the subfamily Oxyurinae (Oxyuroidea: Oxyuridae), instead of the subfamily Syphaciidae or Skrjabinemiinae in the traditional classification, as it formed a sister relationship to the genus Oxyuris. Conclusions A new species of pinworm Skrjabinema longicaudatum n. sp. (Oxyurida: Oxyuridae) is described. Skrjabinema longicaudatum n. sp. represents the first species of Oxyurida (pinworm) and the fourth nematode species reported from the Tibetan antelope. Our results contribute to the knowledge of the species diversity of parasites from the Tibetan antelope, and clarify the systematic position of the genus Skrjabinema.

Main Emphasis

To reveal phylogenetic relationships within the Peronosporomycetes (Oomycetes), we sequenced a part of the nuclear rDNA coding for the ribosomal large subunit of 46 Peronosporomycetes species and one representative of the Xanthophyta. The main emphasis of our study was put on the phylogenetic relationships within the Saprolegniomycetidae. We supplemented our data with a sequence of Phytophthora megasperma Drechsler from GenBank. Two sets of sequences were analysed using the neighbor-joining method, statistically supported by the bootstrap method, as well as the maximum parsimony method. Our results are well compatible with the tripartite subclassification of the Peronosporomycetes into Saprolegniomycetidae, Rhipidiomycetidae and Peronosporomycetidae, as well as with the placement of the orders Saprolegniales and Leptomitales in the Saprolegniomycetidae. Pachymetra chaunorhiza Croft & Dick, which has been placed in the Sclerosporales, was grouped within the Saprolegniales. Within the Peronosporomycetidae, the orders Peronosporales and Pythiales could not be separated. There are indications that Phytophthora de Bary and the Peronosporales form a common natural group. The genus Achlya Nees proved to be a heterogeneous group.
