Two new species, namely N. sinense and N. illicii, collected from Guizhou and Guangxi provinces in China, are described and illustrated. Phylogenetic analysis based on combined ITS, tef1-α and TUB loci supported their separation from other reported species of Neofusicoccum. Morphologically, the relatively large conidia of N. illicii, which become 1-3-septate and pale yellow when aged, can be distinguishable from all other reported species of Neofusicoccum. Phylogenetically, N. sinense is closely related to N. brasiliense, N. grevilleae and N. kwambonambiense. The smaller conidia of N. sinense, which have lower L/W ratio and become 1-2-septate when aged, differ from the other three species. Neofusicoccum mangiferae was isolated from the dieback symptoms of mango in Guangdong Province.

“…Conidial appendages are absent in D. stellatum and their conidial cells are discoid or doliiform. Conidial cells in D. palmae are cylindrical or elongate in shape and conidia with appendages (Crous et al 2011). Dictyosporium sensu stricto comprises the type species D. elegans and sixteen taxa which include fifteen asexual and two sexual species.…”

Abdel-Aziz FA 2016 -Two new cheirosporous asexual taxa (Dictyosporiaceae, Pleosporales, Dothideomycetes) from freshwater habitats in Egypt. Mycosphere 7(4), 448-457, Doi 10.5943/mycosphere/7/4/5 AbstractCheirosporium vesiculare and Dictyosporium palmae spp. nov. were collected from submerged wood in the River Nile, Sohag, Egypt. Cheirosporium vesiculare is characterized by macronematous conidiophores, and non-complanate conidia, that are circular in vertical view with seven rows arranged in six peripheral rows and one in the center. Conidia are equipped with 2 to 5 balloon-like large appendages with long necks that penetrate through the peripheral rows and connect to the central row. Phylogenetic analyses of LSU sequence data place C. vesiculare in a monophyletic clade with C. triseriale in the family Dictyosporiaceae. Dictyosporium palmae is distinguished from the previously described species by its different conidial dimensions and the variable shapes of the gelatinous conidial appendages. Phylogenetic analyses of LSU sequence data place D. palmae in Dictyosporium sensu sticto in a clade with D. digitatum and D. stellatum with high statistical support.

“…In this case, although both DNA sequences of the novel genera of hyphomycetes N. banksiae [19] and the novel lignicolous hyphomycetes S. tengii [20] showed a high identity (98%) to the BM-103 strain, DNA sequence, the phylogenetic tree constructed using the Neighbor-Joining method (Figure 3), inferred a clear difference between these two DNA sequences to the BM-103 strain sequence. In fact, while the DNA sequences of N. banksiae and S. tengii are grouped in the same cluster, the BM-103 strain nucleotide sequence is located separately from these and one of the rest of studied DNA sequences, which are mainly formed by uncultured fungi.…”

Biocorrosion, as well as the biodeterioration of crude oil and its derivatives, is one of the major environmental, operational and economic problems in the Venezuelan oil industry. Fungal contaminants are able to produce large quantities of biomass and synthesize peroxides and organic acids, causing severe damage on metal surfaces and promoting the contamination and biodeterioration of fuels. No evidences regarding fungal strains have been reported to be associated to petroleum naphtha, widely used as a diluent of extra heavy crude oil (EHCO) in the exploitation processes of the Orinoco Oil Belt, the biggest proven reserve of EHCO worldwide. The aims of this paper were to isolate and identify fungal strains from the naphtha storage tank and the naphtha distribution network from an oil field operator in Venezuela. The results showed the isolation of four different fungal strains. The molecular identification by 28S rRNA sequencing and phylogenetic tree analysis allowed us to identify the presence of: 1) a new uncultured Ascomycota fungus species BM-103, with high identity to novel hyphomycetes Noosia banksiae and Sporidesmium tengii, in the naphtha storage tank; 2) two yeasts, Rhodotorula mucilaginosa BM-104 (Phylum Basidiomycota) and Wickerhamia sp. BM-105 (Phylum Ascomycota), in a highly damaged naphtha pipeline branch and; 3) Cladosporium cladosporioides BM-102 (Phylum Ascomycota) in a cluster oil well. DNA fingerprinting analysis using ERIC-PCR primers pairs also allowed us to detect the presence of R. mucilaginosa BM-104 right in the access of the studied naphtha system. Interestingly, R. mucilaginosa and C. cladosporioides were previously reported as predominant fungal contaminants of diesel and jet fuel and of kerosene and fuel storage systems, respectively. This paper represents the first evidence of fungal strains isolated and identified from the naphtha systems in the Venezuelan oil industry. The results obtained are discussed. L. Naranjo et al.144
