band and brown spot needle blights. Needles showing spots and/or bands with fruiting bodies were sampled. From 25 pine trees samples, 82 fungal isolates were successfully retrieved. The most common fungal genera were Pestalotiopsis (42.68%, n = 35), Rhizosphaera (28.04%, n = 23) and Cladosporium (9.75%, n = 8). Seven isolates could not be assigned to a species through molecular identification by ITS sequence analysis, potentially representing novel taxa. Based on multilocus phylogenetic analyses, using ITS, tub2 and tef1-α sequences, and morphological data, we propose three novel fungal species: Didymocyrtis pini sp. nov., Pestalotiopsis iberica sp. nov. and Rhizosphaera pinicola sp. nov. These species are potential active players in the symptomatology initially associated to red band and brown spot needle blight diseases. Although the pathogenicity of these fungi needs to be confirmed, this study suggests a high complexity underlying fungal species associated with these diseases which may impact disease epidemiology and management.
