Taxonomic studies of some often over-looked Diaporthomycetidae and Sordariomycetidae

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