Boerlagiomyces velutinus (Penz. & Sacc.) Butzin and Boerlagiomyces laxus (Penz. & Sacc.) Butzin are lectotypified and the latter species, considered by some mycologists to be a synonym of B. velutinus, is reinstated as a distinct species. Boerlagella effusa (Syd., P. Syd., & E.J. Butler) J.L. Crane, Shearer, & M.E. Barr, comb.nov. is transferred to Boerlagiomyces. These three species are redescribed and illustrated. A key is provided to the six recognized species of Boerlagiomyces. Boerlagiomyces macrosporus V.G. Rao & Varghese is redescribed and illustrated and is placed in Thaxteriella. Diagnostic characters separating genera allied to Boerlagiomyces are presented in a revised key to the saprobic genera of Tubeufiaceae. Thaxteriellopsis bambusicola Sivanesan & Sharma and Thaxteriellopsis lignicola K.S. Panwar & S.J. Kaur are transferred to Chaetosphaerulina and illustrated. New combinations are made in Acanthostigmella and Thaxteriella.Key words: fungal systematics, Tubeufiaceae, Loculoascomycetes.

Three New Species

As part of an ongoing revision of the Southeast Asian fauna two distinct species groups were identified and hypothesized as new genera. These species groups were monophyletic as evidenced by a Bayesian analysis of DNA sequences from four genes for 181 xyleborine taxa augmented by 18 species newly included in this phylogenetic analysis. The species groups and newly discovered species demonstrated unique combinations of diagnostic characters and levels of DNA sequence difference commensurable to other xyleborine taxa. Hence, two new genera and three new species were described: Fraudatrix gen. n., Tricosa gen. n., Tricosa cattienensis sp. n., T. indochinensis sp. n., T. jacula sp. n.. The following new combinations are proposed: Fraudatrix cuneiformis (Schedl, 1958) (Xyleborus) comb. n., Fraudatrix melas (Eggers, 1927) comb. n., F. pileatula (Schedl, 1975) (Xyleborus) comb. n., F. simplex (Browne, 1949), (Cryptoxyleborus) comb. n., Tricosa mangoensis (Schedl, 1942) (Xyleborus) comb. n., T. metacuneola (Eggers, 1940) (Xyleborus) comb. n. Keys to the females of the species included in the new genera are presented. Diagnostic characters are given for the genera and species, and the distribution and biology of each taxon is discussed. The addition of these new genera increases the number of recognized genera of Xyleborini to 41.

Abstract:The species of the genus Fuscidea occurring in North America are revised. Two new species, Fuscidea appalachensis Fryday and F. texana Fryday, are described from eastern North America and southern Texas, respectively. Three new combinations are also made in Fuscidea: Lecidea aleutica Degel. is shown to be a distinct species and not a synonym of Fuscidea lowensis (H. Magn.) R. Anderson & Hertel as previously suggested and is here recognized as F. aleutica (Degel.) Fryday; non-sorediate, apotheciate specimens from eastern North America previously referred to F. recensa (Stirt.) Hertel, V. Wirth & Vězda are recognized as Fuscidea recensa var. arcuatula (Arnold) Fryday; and Fuscidea scrupulosa (Eckf.) Fryday is shown to be the correct name for Fuscidea subreagens (H. Magn.) Oberholl. & V. Wirth. Fuscidea subfilamentosa (Zahlbr.) Brako is shown to be a member of the Lecidea hypnorum group and the new combination Lecidea subfilamentosa (Zahlbr.) Fryday is made, and Lecidea gyrodes H. Magn., described from Tennessee, is shown to be a synonym of F. recensa var. arcuatula. Fuscidea cyathoides (Ach.) V. Wirth & Vězda, F. kochiana (Hepp) V. Wirth & Vězda and F. lightfootii (Sm.) Coppins & P. James are considered not to have been correctly reported from North America.

Phylogenetic Placement

AbstractThe phylogenetic placement of the genus Maronina was studied, based chiefly on phenotypic characters such as thallus colour and anatomy, secondary chemistry, the anatomy of the excipulum and the ascus-type. DNA sequence data of mitochondrial and nuclear ribosomal loci from some of the species support the hypothesis that Maronina is nested within Protoparmelia. Hence, Maronina is reduced to synonymy with Protoparmelia. Comparison of genetic distances suggests that the two varieties within M. orientalis should be regarded as distinct species. Consequently, the new combinations Protoparmelia australiensis (Hafellner & R. W. Rogers) Kantvilas et al., P. corallifera (Kantvilas & Papong) Kantvilas et al., P. hesperia (Kantvilas & Elix) Kantvilas et al., P. multifera (Nyl.) Kantvilas et al., and P. orientalis (Kantvilas & Papong) Kantvilas et al. are proposed.

Discochora yuccae sp. nov. and its conidial anamorph Phyllosticta yuccae sp. nov. and spermatial synanamorph Leptodothiorella notabilis Petrak & Ciferri are described. The fungus causes a leaf-blotch disease of Yucca spp. and is distinguished by the long, cylindrical asci and relatively large, ellipsoidal ascospores. New combinations in Discochora are made for nine species previously assigned to Guignardia (auct.) and occurring on Liliales. One new combination is made in Botryosphaeria.

A new species of Specklinia with a repent growth habit and minute purple flowers is described and illustrated. The new species is distinguished from Specklinia wrightii based on its morphological and molecular distinctness from that species. The phylogenetic placement of the new species is provided based on an nrITS tree. The species described here represents the first new orchid to be described from material originating from the Parc National Naturel Macaya in six years. New combinations are made in Acianthera for species of Kraenzlinella and Pleurothallis subgen. Antilla embedded within the genus. In particular Kraenzlinella rinkei is provided as a new synonym for Specklinia montezumae and Specklinia simpliciflora is transferred to Acianthera sect. Antilla based on morphology and geographic distribution.

It is herein presented Ruehssia sumiderensis as a new species known only in the Cañón del Sumidero National Park, in Chiapas, Mexico. It is illustrated with a line drawing, live images and SEM photographs of the gynostegium and pollinarium. Morphological and molecular evidence with plastid data (trnL intron and trnL-F intergenic spacer) confirms its position in Ruehssia, a recently proposed genus that includes American Marsdenieae species. It is similar to Marsdenia laxiflora and M. pinetorum due to the basally rounded or truncate leaves, rotate corolla without callous cushions in the sinuses. Two new combinations are also made in Ruehssia, for M. laxiflora and M. pinetorum.

Following recent molecular phylogenetic studies in Old World Gesneriaceae the nomenclatural implications for names in Henckelia are examined. New combinations are made in Codonoboea and Loxocarpus to account for species now excluded from Henckelia. A list is presented in which the current position of all species hitherto assigned to Henckelia is given, including the new combination Henckelia rotundata (Barnett) D.J.Middleton & Mich.Möller. A new combination in Oreocharis is made.
