Notes on 113 fungal taxa are compiled in this paper, including 11 new genera, 89 new species, one new subspecies, three new combinations and xx reference specimens. A wide geographic and taxonomic range of fungal taxa are detailed. In the Ascomycota the new genera Angustospora (Testudinaceae), Camporesia (Xylariaceae), Clematidis, Crassiparies (Pleosporales genera incertae sedis), Farasanispora, Longiostiolum (Pleosporales genera incertae sedis), Multilocularia (Parabambusicolaceae), Neophaeocryptopus (Dothideaceae), Parameliola (Pleosporales genera incertae sedis), and Towyspora (Lentitheciaceae) are introduced. Newly introduced species are Angustospora nilensis, Aniptodera

A new genus and eight new species, all with isaria-like phialides, are described in Cordycipitaceae from Thailand. The new genus, Samsoniella, is segregated from Akanthomyces based on morphological and molecular evidence. Samsoniella differs from Akanthomyces in producing orange cylindrical to clavate stromata with superficial perithecia and orange conidiophores with isaria-like phialides and white to cream conidia. A new combination for CBS 240.32, originally identified as Paecilomyces farinosus (Isaria farinosa), and CBS 262.58, originally identified as Penicillium alboaurantium, respectively, is made in Samsoniella. Two new species, Samsoniella aurantia and S. inthanonensis, are described from lepidopteran larvae. Two new species of Cordyceps, C. blackwelliae and C. lepidopterorum, were also found on coleopteran and lepidopteran larvae. Both produce isaria-like morphs with globose phialides and attenuated long necks and white mycelium in culture. The authors established a sexual-asexual link for Cordyceps javanica (= Isaria javanica) on lepidopteran larvae. Four new species, Akanthomyces kanyawimiae, A. sulphureus, A. thailandicus, and A. waltergamsii, were pathogenic on spiders, with some strains of A. kanyawimiae also found on unidentified insect larvae. These four species of Akanthomyces occur on the underside of leaves and produce white to cream white powdery conidia, whereas S. aurantia and S. inthanonensis were found in leaf litter and produce bright orange stromata and synnemata with white conidia. Another new combination, Akanthomyces ryukyuensis, is proposed. Phylogenetic analyses based on a combined data set comprising the nuc rDNA region encompassing the internal transcribed spacers 1 and 2 along with the 5.8S rDNA (ITS), nuc 28S rDNA (28S), partial sequences of translation elongation factor 1-α gene (TEF1), and the genes for RNA polymerase II largest (RPB1) and second-largest (RPB2) subunits strongly support the delimitation of these new species of Cordyceps, Akanthomyces, and in a new genus Samsoniella in Cordycipitaceae.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
