“…These species grow as saprophytes on a variety of decaying wood debris in tropical and subtropical freshwater and terrestrial habitats (Index Fungorum database; Hu et al 2023 ). 45 species have been reported on submerged bamboo stems and unknown wood debris in freshwater habitats, and 23 species have been reported on dead leaves, branches, and stems of various plants in terrestrial habitats, such as palms ( Hyde et al 2019 ), bamboo ( Monkai et al 2020 ), grasses ( Hyde et al 2023 ), and unknown broad-leaved trees ( Hu et al 2023 ), etc., and five species have been reported in both terrestrial and freshwater habitats ( Hyde et al 2016 ; Tibpromma et al 2018 ; Phookamsak et al 2019 ; Phukhamsakda et al 2020 ; Sun et al 2020 ; Shen et al 2021 ; Ma et al 2022 ; Zhang et al 2022 ). China and Thailand are the countries that contribute the most Distoseptispora species, with 50 species reported in China and 25 species reported in Thailand.…”

The Red River Basin is located in the Indo-Burma biodiversity hotspot and is rich in lignicolous freshwater fungi, but no systematic research has been conducted. A systematic study on the species diversity of lignicolous freshwater fungi in the basin is ongoing. Seven distoseptispora-like specimens were collected from the Red River Basin in Yunnan. Phylogenetic analysis of ITS, LSU, tef1-α, and rpb2 genes and combined morphological data indicate that there are six distinct species of Distoseptispora, including two new species and four known species. Two new species were named D. suae and D. xinpingensis, and the four known species were D. bambusae, D. euseptata, D. obpyriformis and D. pachyconidia. This study provides detailed descriptions and illustrations of these six species and an updated phylogenetic backbone tree of Distoseptispora.

“…The establishment of Distoseptispora was based on morphology and phylogenetic studies. In all, 66 epithets for Distoseptispora have been listed in Index Fungorum ( 14 ), and of which 65 are accepted ( 15 – 17 ). Members of this genus occur mainly as asexual morphs, forming effuse, hairy colonies on decaying wood, plant stems, bamboo poles, fallen leaves, and shafts from both terrestrial and freshwater habitats ( 5 ).…”

“…Distoseptispora is known as a saprobic fungal genus from woody hosts in aquatic and terrestrial habitats ( 11 ). Distoseptispora currently has 65 valid species, 44 of which are freshwater species and 21 are terrestrial species ( 14 – 17 ). Most Distoseptispora species are distributed in Asia, mainly in China (42 species) and Thailand (23 species) ( 4 – 7 , 10 , 14 – 32 ), while only a little published information is recorded in other regions ( 14 , 15 , 18 , 33 , 34 ).…”

Plant debris are habitat favoring the growth of various microbial species. Over the course of our mycological surveys in Jiangxi and Yunnan Provinces, China, eight new Distoseptispora species, viz. D. gasaensis , D. guanshanensis , D. jinghongensis , D. longnanensis , D. menghaiensis , D. menglunensis , D. nanchangensis , and D. yichunensis collected on dead branches of unidentified plants, were introduced by morphological and molecular phylogenetic analyses. Multi-locus (LSU, ITS, TEF1 , and RPB2 ) phylogenetic analyses were performed using maximum-likelihood and Bayesian inference to infer their taxonomic positions within Distoseptispora . Both molecular phylogenetic analyses and morphological characters supported them as eight independent taxa within Distoseptispora . This work improves our understanding of the diversity of Distoseptispora in southern China. IMPORTANCE Distoseptispora as a single genus in Distoseptisporaceae was introduced by morphological and phylogenetic analyses. Members of this genus occur mainly as asexual morphs, forming effuse, hairy colonies on decaying wood, plant stems, bamboo culms, and fallen leaves and shafts in terrestrial and freshwater habitats. In the present study, saprobic hyphomycetes from plant debris were investigated, and eight new Distoseptispora species were introduced based on morphology and phylogenetic analyses of LSU, ITS, TEF1 , and RPB2 sequence data. This study provides important data on the species diversity, ecological environment, and geographical area of Distoseptispora , greatly updates the classification of Distoseptispora , and improves our understanding of the taxonomy of Distoseptispora .

“…Nigrogranaceae was introduced by Jaklitsch and Voglmayr (2016), with Nigrograna as the type genus. The members of Nigrogranaceae can be found on a wide range of hosts in marine and terrestrial habitats (Dayarathne et al 2020;Boonmee et al 2021;Lu et al 2022;Hyde et al 2023). Kolařík (2018) synonymised these four species under Nigrograna.…”

“…Approximately 104,000 fungal species are expected to be discovered in Yunnan; however, around 6,000 fungal species have been reported from the Province, leaving much to be described (Feng and Yang 2018;Phukhamsakda et al 2022). Surprisingly, a few fungal species have been described on Pará rubber in China (Senwanna et al 2021;Xu et al 2022aXu et al , 2022bXu et al , 2023Hyde et al 2023). Senwanna et al (2021) listed 67 orders, 168 families and 513 genera of fungi on Pará rubber and reported eight new taxa, two asexual-sexual linkages, 20 new host records and one reference specimen of saprobic fungi from Thailand.…”

The tropical areas in southern and south-western Yunnan are rich in fungal diversity. Additionally, the diversity of seed flora in Yunnan Province is higher than in other regions in China and the abundant endemic species of woody plants provide favourable substrates for fungi. Rubber plantations in Yunnan Province are distributed over a large area, especially in Xishuangbanna. During a survey of rubber-associated fungi in Yunnan Province, China, dead rubber branches with fungal fruiting bodies were collected. Morphological characteristics and multigene phylogenetic analyses (ITS, LSU, SSU, rpb2 and tef1-α) revealed four distinct new species, described herein as Melomastia puerensis, Nigrograna lincangensis, Pseudochaetosphaeronema lincangensis and Pseudochaetosphaeronema xishuangbannaensis. Detailed descriptions, illustrations and phylogenetic trees are provided to show the taxonomic placements of these new species.
