            <p> Akanthomyces bannaensis X.C. Zhang &amp; C.L. Zhao ,  sp. nov. Figs. 3, 4 </p>
            <p>MycoBank no.: MB 853954</p>
            <p> Diagnosis: —The species is distinguished from other  Akanthomyces species by it occurring on an adult of  Dudusa sphingiformis and synnemata arising from a moth body up to 5 cm long and 0.1–1.3 mm wide, unbranched, cylindrical to clavate with acute or blunt end. </p>
            <p> Etymology: —  bannaensis (Lat.) refers to the locality (Dai Autonomous Prefecture of Xishuangbanna) of the type specimen. </p>
            <p>
                 Type: —   CHINA. Yunnan Province, Dai Autonomous Prefecture of Xishuangbanna, Jinghong,

            <p>Description:— Sexual morph: Undetermined. Asexual morph: Specimens examined in this study can be found on the underside of the leaves of angiosperms. The hosts were adult moths, ca. 4 × 2.5 cm. Synnemata arising from moth body and wings, white (C0 M0 Y5 K0) to cream (C0 M10 Y40 K0), up to 5 cm long and 0.1–1.3 mm wide, unbranched, cylindrical to clavate with acute or blunt end. Hyphae smooth-walled, branched, septate, hyaline, 2.65– 2.90 µm wide. Conidiogenous cells produced along synnemata, monophialidic or polyphialidic. Phialides smooth-walled, hyaline, cylindrical with papillate end, (7–) 8–10 × (2.2–) 2.5–3.8 µm (n = 20/1). Conidia smooth-walled, colorless, single-celled, ellipsoidal or obovoid, (3.8–) 4–5.8 × 2–3 µm, L = 4.80 μm, W = 2.52 µm, Q = 1.74–2.08 (n = 60/2).</p>
            <p> Host: —Adult moth (  Dudusa sphingiformis ,  Notodontidae ,  Lepidoptera ). </p>
            <p> Habit: —On the adults of  Dudusa sphingiformis attached to the underside of the leaves of an angiosperm. </p>
            <p>Distribution: — CHINA. Yunnan Province, Dai Autonomous Prefecture of Xishuangbanna, Jinghong, Menglun Town.</p>
            <p>
                 Additional specimen examined (paratype): —   CHINA. Yunnan Province, Dai Autonomous Prefecture of Xishuangbanna, Jinghong,

                 , 21°55′N, 101°13′E, elev. 544 m, on the underside of leaves of an angiosperm, 9 October 2023, leg. C. L. Zhao, CLZhao 34017 (SWFC F0034017), GenBank No. (ITS PP571896; nLSU PP571898)  .

            <p> Notes: —  Akanthomyces bannaensis was found only in its anamorph state on an adult  Dudusa sphingiformis , while  A. pyralidarum was reported on an adult of the family  Pyralidae sp. In fact, this new species is easily distinguished from other known species of  Akanthomyces by occurring on an adult of  Dudusa sphingiformis and synnemata arising from a moth body up to 5 cm long and 0.1–1.3 mm wide, unbranched, cylindrical to clavate with acute or blunt end (Table 2). </p>
