“…It is evident from the ITS rDNA sequences with 99–100% similarity deposited in the GenBank database that P. hymenocallidicola is predominantly an endophytic fungus with a broad spectrum of host plants, including Ardisia (Higginbotham et al., ), Eucalyptus (Crous et al., ; Marsberg, Slippers, Wingfield, & Gryzenhout, ), Ficus (Solis, Cruz, Schnittler, & Unterseher, ), Heterosmilax (Gao et al., ), Livistona (Guo, Hyde, & Liew, ), Minosops (Sopalun, ), Phryganocydia (Higginbotham et al., ) and Psychotria (Higginbotham et al., ). Phaeophleospora hymenocallidicola has also been isolated from mangrove soil (Xu, Yu, Liu, Li, & Wang, ), coral mucus (Barathikannan, Ramasamy, Manohar, & Meena, ), deep‐sea sediment (Zhang et al., ) and hypersaline microbial mats (Cantrell et al., ). We assume that the plants or wooden decorations inside the aquarium on which the fungus could grow were probably the source of infection for the fish.…”
