Cordyceps are notable medicinal fungi in China, which pathogenic on insects and with high biodiversity in tropical and subtropical regions. Recently, three new Cordyceps species, Cordyceps changchunensis and Cordyceps jingyuetanensis grow on pupae of Lepidoptera, and Cordyceps changbaiensis grows on larvae of Lepidoptera, and one new record of Northeast China, Cordyceps taishanensis, are found in Jilin Province, China and detailed descriptions were obtained based on morphological and ecological characteristics. These three new species are similar to Cordyceps militaris group but distinctly distinguishable from known species. Cordyceps changchunensis, characterised by its small and light yellow to orange stromata that forks-like occasionally, covered with white mycelium at base of stipe, globose to ovoid perithecia, is macroscopically similar to Cordyceps militaris. Cordyceps changbaiensis clearly discriminated from other Cordyceps species by its white to orange and branched stromata, clavate to cylindrical fertile apical portion, immersed and globose to ovoid perithecia. Moreover, unbranched, clavate and orange to light red stromata, almond-shaped to ovoid and immersed perithecia differ Cordyceps jingyuetanensis from other Cordyceps species. ITS and nrLSU sequences are undertaken, and phylogenetic trees based on Maximum Likelihood analysis and Bayesian inference analysis confirmed the results of our morphological study. The phylogenetic result showed that the three new species gather with Cordyceps militaris but formed clades alone. Further analysis shows that the group of Cordyceps militaris mainly host on larvae of Lepidoptera.

“…Phylogenetic trees were constructed using sequences of Cordyceps qingchengensis sp. nov. and voucher sequences of its allies obtained from GenBank (Sung et al 2007, Wang et al 2008, Yan & Tolgor 2015, Kepler et al 2017 (Table 1). Phylogeny was reconstructed using the single gene datasets of ITS, TEF1-α and finally a combined SSU, LSU and TEF1-α sequence dataset.…”

Taxonomy and biology of Cordyceps qingchengensis sp. nov. and its allies

Cordyceps qingchengensis sp. nov., growing on a cocooned pupa of a silk moth (Lepidoptera: Bombycidae) and collected from southwestern China, is described, illustrated and compared with allied taxa. The species is morphologically similar to C. bifusispora and C. tenuipes, but can be easily separated from the latter two by the unique host and by branched and thicker stroma. Phylogenetic analyses of single ITS and combined SSU, LSU and TEF1-α datasets indicate that it is closely related to C. bifusispora, C. cicadae (Miq.) Massee (Chanhua) and C. tenuipes, but C. qingchengensis has distinct nucleotide differences which support it as new. Taxonomy of C. tenuipes and C. pruinosa is reviewed and C. ninchukispora (≡ Phytocordyceps ninchukispora) is considered as a synonym of C. pruinosa. Ecology and life cycles of C. qingchengensis, C. tenuipes, C. pruinosa and C. ningxiaensis are recorded and inferred. We provide important biological information for C. qingchengensis and its allies.

“…At that time, Cordyceps comprised about 50 species of fungi that mainly parasitize insects (Sung et al 2007). Some new Cordyceps species were reported later (Li et al 2008, Yang et al 2009, Palfner et al 2012, Negi et al 2012, Sanjuan et al 2014, Yan & Bau 2015, Tasanathai et al 2016, Chirivi et al 2017. Kepler et al (2017) proposed the rejection of Isaria in favour of Cordyceps, owing to the confusion surrounding the application of Isaria, and combined Isaria species into Cordyceps.…”

Ant-pathogenic fungi are mainly found in the Ophiocordycipitaceae, rarely in the Cordycipitaceae. During a survey of entomopathogenetic fungi from Southwest China, a new species, Cordyceps yinjiangensis, was isolated from the ponerine. It differs from other Cordyceps species by its ant host, shorter phialides, and smaller septate conidia formed in an imbricate chain. Phylogenetic analyses based on the combined datasets of (LSU+RPB2+TEF) and (ITS+TEF) confirmed that C. yinjiangensis is distinct from other species. The new species is formally described and illustrated, and compared to similar species.
