Novelties in Fuscosporellaceae (Fuscosporellales): Two New <i>Parafuscosporella</i> from Thailand Revealed by Morphology and Phylogenetic Analyses
Asexual morphs of freshwater fungi have been mostly reported from tropical and subtropical regions. From our ongoing investigation of the diversity and taxonomy of freshwater microfungi in Thailand, a country with rich natural resources and diverse ecosystems, <i>Parafuscosporella ellipsoconid...

| description | Asexual morphs of freshwater fungi have been mostly reported from tropical and subtropical regions. From our ongoing investigation of the diversity and taxonomy of freshwater microfungi in Thailand, a country with rich natural resources and diverse ecosystems, <i>Parafuscosporella ellipsoconidiogena</i> sp. nov. and <i>P. obovata</i> sp. nov., collected from decaying submerged twigs at Phalad Waterfall in a conserved forest in Chiang Mai Zoo, Chiang Mai Province, northern Thailand, are proposed. DNA phylogenies based on a combination of ITS and LSU datasets support the placement of these species in <i>Parafuscosporella</i> (Fuscosporellaceae, Fuscosporellales, Sordariomycetes), and these two novel species differ from known species in terms of morphology. Detailed descriptions, illustrations and a key to <i>Parafuscosporella</i> species are provided, as well as comparisons with other accepted <i>Parafuscosporella</i> species. |
