文摘Sordariomycetes is an earlier-introduced and one of the widely distributed class of Ascomycota.The class was initially clas-sified based on morphology in having inoperculate and unitunicate asci.With the development of DNA based phylogenetic analysis,several undetermined or polyphyletic members of Sordariomycetes were reclassified.However,not all species belonging to this class have been sequenced and analyzed.There are a number of species,especially those old and poorly studied ones which have never been sequenced before and not even recollected again for further taxonomic verification.One of the main objective in this study is to revise and update the taxonomy of several well-known early and poorly studied spe-cies whose classification are still obscure.Herein,we re-examined the type materials and/or authentic specimens together to explore 74 relatively poorly-studied genera,which mainly belong to Boliniales,Calosphaeriales,Chaetosphaeriales,Jobellisiales,and Sordariales classified under Diaporthomycetidae and Sordariomycetidae.We provide descriptions,notes,figures and/or drawings and discussed their phylogenetic relationships.As a result,the monotypic Jobellisiales is transferred from Hypocreomycetidae to Diaporthomycetidae.Based on phylogenetic analysis,the polyphyletic Lasiosphaeriaceae is divided into five families,Bombardiaceae(Apodospora,Bombardia,Bombardioidea,Fimetariella and Ramophialophora),Lasiosphaeriaceae(Anopodium,Bellojisia,Corylomyces,Lasiosphaeria,Mammaria and Zopfiella),Lasiosphaeridaceae(Lasiosphaeris),Strattoniaceae(Strattonia)and Zygospermellaceae(Episternus and Zygospermella).In addition,a new family Neoschizotheciaceae is established based on Neoschizothecium.Analysis of the type species of Boothiella,Stel-latospora,Sulcatistroma and Tengiomyces placed them in Sordariaceae,Chaetomiaceae,Hypocreales and Coronophorales,respectively.We classify the genera lacking molecular data based on their morphology and expect them to be recollected;that is,Kacosphaeria in Calosphaeriales;Arnium,Biconiosporella,Camptosphaeria,Diffractella,Emblemospora,Eosphaeria,Periamphispora,Synaptospora and Tripterosporella in Sordariales;Conidiotheca in Sordariomycetes;Copromyces,Effetia,Endophragmiella and Tulipispora are accommodated in Ascomycota.Besides,we establish a new genus Neoschizothecium based on phylogenetic analysis.New combinations proposed:Camaropella amorpha,Cam.microspora,Cam.plana,Clad-orrhinum grandiusculum,Cla.leucotrichum,Cla.terricola,Cla.olerum,Helminthosphaeria plumbea,Immersiella hirta,Jugulospora minor,Lasiosphaeris arenicola,Neoschizothecium aloides,Neo.carpinicola,Neo.conicum,Neo.curvisporum,Neo.fimbriatum,Neo.glutinans,Neo.inaequale,Neo.minicaudum,Neo.selenosporum,Neo.tetrasporum,Neurospora autosteira,Podospora brunnescens,P.flexuosa,P.jamaicensis,P.hamata,P.macrospora,P.spinosa,Strattonia petrogale and Triangularia microsclerotigena,T.nannopodalis,T.praecox,T.samala,T.tarvisina,T.unicaudata,T.yaeyamensis.New epithets are proposed for Apiorhynchostoma apiosporum and Podospora dacryoidea.

文摘Ophiobolus is a large genus of Phaeosphaeriaceae comprising more than 350 possible species,most of which are saprobes on herbaceous plants in Europe and North America.Ophiobolus species are polyphyletic and the type of Ophiobolus is not represented in GenBank.Therefore,an increased taxon sampling of ophiobolus-like taxa and epitypification of the type species,O.disseminans is reported.Multigene phylogenetic analyses of combined LSU,SSU,TEF1-a and ITS sequence data position O.disseminans in a sister clade with O.ponticus and several Entodesmium species in Phaeosphaeriaceae with high support.Therefore,Entodesmium is synonymized under Ophiobolus.Premilcurensis with it type species,P.senecionis also clusters within the Ophiobolus clade and is synonymized under Ophiobolus.Ophiobolus rossicus sp.nov.is introduced and a reference specimen is designated for O.ponticus.Other ophiobolus-like taxa(Ophiobolus sensu lato)can be distinguished as three main groups,which are introduced as new genera.Ophiobolopsis is introduced to accommodate the new species,Ophiobolopsis italica.The new genus Paraophiobolus is introduced to accommodate P.arundinis sp.nov.and P.plantaginis comb.nov.This genus is characterized by hyaline to pale yellowish ascospores,some green-yellowish at maturity,with a swollen cell,terminal appendages and ascospores not separating into part spores.Pseudoophiobolus gen.nov.is introduced to accommodate six new species and two new combinations,viz.Ps.achilleae,Ps.erythrosporus,Ps.galii,Ps.italicus,Ps.mathieui,Ps.rosae,Ps.subhyalinisporus and Ps.urticicola.Pseudoophiobolus is characterized by subhyaline to pale yellowish or yellowish ascospores,with a swollen cell,lack of terminal appendages and ascospores that do not separate into part spores and is related to Nodulosphaeria.An updated tree for Phaeosphaeriaceae based on multigene analysis is also provided.
