Province of Forlì-Cesena: Santa Sofia, Camposonaldo, dead and hanging branches of Acer campestre L. (Aceraceae), 3 May 2013, E. Camporesi IT-1254 (MFLU 14-0752), living culture, MFLUCC 13-0611; RUSSIA. Rostov region: Shakhty city, Central Park, on dead branch of Morus alba L. (Moraceae), 5 May 2014, Timur Bulgakov (MFLU 15-0004), living culture, MFLUCC 14-0618.</p> <p>Notes:— Morphologically Pseudosplanchnonema shows a resemblance to genus Splanchnonema, as typified by Splanchnonema pustulatum. Splanchnonema pustulatum differs from Pseudosplanchnonema phorcioides in possessing larger, depressed, subglobose ascomata and clavate, reddish brown, 2-septate ascospores (Zhang et al. 2012, Liu et al. 2015). Our new collection of Pseudosplanchnonema phorcioides is identical to Splanchnonema phorcioides. Both collections have immersed, ostiolate ascomata, 8-spored, clavate, biseriate asci and fusiform, dark brown, ascospores surrounded by a gelatinous sheath (Tanaka et al. 2005). Hence we transfer this species to Pseudosplanchnonema as a new combination. According to the molecular data, P. phorcioides clusters in a wellseparated clade in Massarinaceae. Leroy et al. (2000) has described Splanchnonema phorcioides as parasitic. Hence we have described the Pseudosplanchnonema phorcioides as also parasitic. Pseudosplanchnonema differs from M. eburnea in having smaller ascomata lacking a clypeus, a thicker peridium composed of two layers the inner of hyaline and outer of dark brown cells, anastomosing pseudoparaphyses, and larger, dark brown, 1-septate, guttulate ascospores which sometimes have pseudosepta.</p> <p>Several asexual genera have been shown to be associated with Massarinaceae by molecular phylogenetic studies (Kodsueb et al. 2007, Shearer et al. 2009, Suestrong et al. 2009, Zhang et al. 2012). Byssothecium, represented by B. circinans differs from Pseudosplanchnonema in having minute, thin-walled conidiomata and subglobose, broadly papillate pseudothecia with smaller asci and ascospores in its sexual morph (Boise 1983). Aquaticheirospora represented by A. lignicola differs from Pseudosplanchnonema in possessing synnematous conidiomata, larger, hyaline to pale brown, cheiroid conidia (Kodsueb et al. 2007). Cheirosporium represented by C. triseriale differs by having sporodochial conidiomata, macronematous, septate conidiophores, monoblastic, doliiform or broad-cylindrical conidiogenous cells, larger, olivaceous to brown, 0–1-septate, cheiroid conidia truncated at the base (Cai et al. 2008, Kodsueb et al. 2007). Corynespora represented by C. olivacea, Helminthosporium represented by H. chlorophorae, H. solani, H. velutinum and Periconia represented by P. igniaria differed from the asexual morph of Pseudosplanchnonema by possessing macronematous, mononematous conidiophores, Corynespora and Helminthosporium differed by possessing brown, elongate, multi-cellular, tretic conidia, whereas Periconia differed by globose to cylindrical conidia (Ellis 1971, Hyde et al. 2013). Neottiosporina represented by N. paspali and Saccharicola represented by S. bicolor differed from Pseudosplanchnonema in having smaller conidiomata and transversely septate conidia (Sutton 1980).</p> <p>Many studies have been conducted on splanchnonema-like species isolated from the Morus species, with distinct phylogeny and morphological characters similar to Pseudosplanchnonema (Tanaka &amp; Harada 2004, Tanaka et al. 2005, Liu et al. 2015). Our study shows the importance of studying these splanchnonema-like taxa since they are scattered across Pleosporales with distinct phylogenetic lineages. Therefore, further studies with molecular data are essential to interpret correct generic concepts for splanchnonema-like taxa.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/038087CFD177FFBBFF08FD7E9EBFF907	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
