A New Species

A new species of Moellerodiscus, M. dennisii, is described from India. This species, growing on rotting leaves of an unidentified angiospermic plant, has poorly developed stroma and biguttulate ascospores. The ectal excipulum is composed of flattened textura globulosa with large excipular hairs.

A New Species

A new species, namely Chlorociboria herbicola, is discovered on herbaceous stems in central China. Morphologically, the new fungus is distinctive by the combination of light blue-green apothecia, rectangular cells in ectal excipulum, and elongate-ellipsoidal ascospores with rounded ends. Phylogenetic analyses of the internal transcribed spacer and large subunit of nuclear ribosomal DNA sequences confirm its ascription in Chlorociboria and distinction from the known species of the genus.

A New Species

A new species, Roseodiscus sinicus is described and illustrated. The fungus, collected on stems of an unknown monocotyledon, is characterized by dirty white apothecia, large and thin-walled ectal excipulum cells, Calycina-type ascus apical ring, and ellipsoid, multiguttulate ascospores. The placement of the new species in Roseodiscus was also supported by ITS rDNA sequence analysis. The distinctions between the new species and related taxa are discussed.
