Asexual Morphs

Chromelosporium-like asexual morphs of the subterraneous Pezizaceae in the /Pachyphlodes clade are not congeneric with the type of Chromelosporium. Some Chromelosporium morphs are of species in the /Pezizaceae clade (the /Peziza clade), and the genus Chromelosporium as it has been defined is polyphyletic. A diagnostic character that distinguishes these two groups is the presence or absence of conidiophore fasciculation. Mononematous conidiophores characterize Chromelosporium and species related to the /Peziza clade. Synnematous conidiophores characterize Pachyphlodes and other asexual species and define the new genus Chromelosporiopsis, to be excluded from Chromelosporium. Hyphelia terrestris, long misapplied to Chromelosporium, is revaluated, lectotypified, redescribed and recombined as Geohypha terrestris.

Asexual Morphs

The genus Cyphellophora have been reported from plant materials, mammal’s skins and nails, and food. Previous research studies have only provided morphological characteristics of the asexual morphs of this genus. The genus Camptophora was introduced as a new genus segregated from Cyphellophora based on the sickle-shaped septate conidia and phylogenetic lineages. For the first time, we provide morphological characteristics of a sexual morph of Cyphellophora and Camptophora collected and isolated in Yunnan Province of China. Cyphellophora jingdongensis and Camptophora schima are introduced as new species while Ca. hylomeconis is reported as a new record to China based on both morphological characteristics and molecular phylogenetic analysis with combined ITS and LSU sequence data, and are compared with related taxa. Full descriptions, illustrations, colour photographs and notes are provided for three species.

Anterior Segments

Recently collected Asthenognathus gallardoi Serène & Soh, 1976 from Thailand and the Philippines are examined. Asthenognathus gallardoi possesses long setae of the palp of the third maxilliped and the fused male abdominal segments that are diagnostic characters of Gaeticinae Davie & N.K. Ng, 2007. Although the species lacks the longitudinal sulcus on the anterior segments of the sternum, which is another diagnostic character of Gaeticinae, the anterior part of the sternum is gently concave. The presences of these features indicate that Asthenognathus gallardoi belongs to Gaeticinae, not Asthenognathinae Stimpson, 1858. A new genus is established for Asthenognathus gallardoi to accommodate it in Gaeticinae.

A New Species

The genusColombocarisis proposed for a new species discovered on submerged mosses of a high Andean lake in Colombia. The diagnostic characters of the genus mainly concern the morphology of legs, particularly the endopod of leg 2, leg 3, the endopodite of leg 4 and the peculiar leg 5, the cuticular windows of body segments and the morphology of the furca. The new genusNoodtcarisis proposed for three species of theParastenocaris columbiensis-group, viz.,P. columbiensis,P. kubitzkiiandP. roettgeri, described from the Colombian Llanos Orientales, and forP. tapajosensisfrom the Brazilian Amazonas. This genus is well defined by the ornamentation of the caudal rami and the morphology of legs 2 to 5. The absence of endopod on female leg 3 is a diagnostic character at least for the Colombian species. A key for the identification of the species composing the new genera is provided.

A new Apicotermitinae genus and species Echinotermesbiriba is described from workers collected on the Andean-Amazon Piedmont in Colombia and Peru. The enteric valve armature of Echinotermesbiriba Castro & Scheffrahn, gen. et sp. n. is a remarkably diagnostic character. A Bayesian phylogenetic analysis using the COI gene and including all other Neotropical Apicotermitinae genera, supports the new genus as a distinct terminal.

Reference Strains

During a survey on fungi associated with wood necroses of Prunus trees in Germany, strains belonging to the Leotiomycetes and Eurotiomycetes were detected by preliminary analyses of ITS sequences. Multi-locus phylogenetic analyses (LSU, ITS, TUB, EF-1α, depending on genus) of 31 of the 45 strains from Prunus and reference strains revealed several new taxa, including Arboricolonusgen. nov., a new genus in the Helotiales (Leotiomycetes) with a collophorina-like asexual morph. Seven Cadophora species (Helotiales, Leotiomycetes) were treated. The 29 strains from Prunus belonged to five species, of which C. luteo-olivacea and C. novi-eboraci were dominating; C. africanasp. nov., C. prunicolasp. nov. and C. ramosasp. nov. were revealed as new species. The genus Cadophora was reported from Prunus for the first time. Phialophora bubakii was combined in Cadophora and differentiated from C. obscura, which was resurrected. Asexual morphs of two Proliferodiscus species (Helotiales, Leotiomycetes) were described, including one new species, Pr. ingenssp. nov. Two Minutiella species (Phaeomoniellales, Eurotiomycetes) were detected, including the new species M. pruni-aviumsp. nov. Prunus avium and P. domestica are reported as host plants of Minutiella.

Abstract Paleozoic scaphopods are among the most poorly known mollusks because of their featureless tubular shell morphology and fragmentary preservation. An apical orifice at the posterior end of a conch is a diagnostic character of Scaphopoda that distinguishes them from other groups of animals that produce similar calcareous tubes, but this structure is rarely preserved. A rich molluscan fauna from the Permian Akasaka Limestone in central Japan includes scaphopod shells, and past studies have reported four species, all of which were based on fragmentary specimens. This study recognizes six species in the Akasaka Limestone mainly on the basis of museum/institution collections, and a new genus (Minodentalium) and three species (Prodentalium onoi, M. hayasakai, and M. okumurai) are described, two known species (P. akasakensis and P. neornatum) are redescribed in more detail, and one species (Prodentalium sp.) is described under open nomenclature. The following eight known species are allocated to the new genus Minodentalium: Plagioglypta furcata Waterhouse, 1980; Pl. girtyi Knight, 1940; Pl. subannulata Easton, 1962; Dentalium ingens De Koninck, 1843; D. meekianum Geinitz, 1866; Pl. prosseri Morningstar, 1922; Dentalium priscum Münster in Goldfuss, 1842; and D. herculeum De Koninck, 1863. All the species, except for M. hayasakai, are gigantic, reaching 200 mm or more in length. The species richness is the greatest known from a single locality/formation worldwide.
