Conidiophores sparsely disposed, noted after 7 d, gliocladium to verticillium-like, with 1 –3(– 4) whorls arising from the main axis. Phialides arising in more or less narrow angles from cylindrical metulae, phialides slender to lageniform, somewhat curved, (10 –)14–23(– 28) × 2 –3.5(– 4) μm, l/w 4.8 –7.2(– 9.2), (1.5 –)1.8–2.7(– 3.2) μm wide at the base (n = 100).

Furthermore, sequence similarity of ITS and RPB2 between these species was only 90.1% and 92.1%, with 60 bp and 68 bp differences among 606 bp and 864 bp, respectively. Among the species with green ascospores, T. gelatinosum, T. nigrovirens, T. chromospermum and T. thelephoricola also generated gliocladium to verticillium-like conidiophores, but they are not phylogenetically closely related.</p><p>The phylogenetic positions of the new taxa (Figure 1) demonstrated that Trichoderma fujianense is found to be closely related to T. aureoviride and T. candidum, and three of them form an independent lineage with high statistical support. However, T. aureoviride is distinctive by shorter conidia (3.8-4.0 × 3.0-3.3 μm, l/w 1.2-1.3); T. candidum differs by shorter phialides (7.3 –)9.0–13.5(– 16.5) μm, globose to subglobose and smaller conidia (3.2-3.5 × 3.0-3.2 μm, l/w (1.0 –)1.1(– 1.3) (Chaverri and Samuels 2003).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/04F5FA85B669ECEF85B6ABA5C54D3815	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Fujian: Quanzhou City, Qingyuan mountain. 24°55'53"N, 118°36'31"E, 200 m alt., on bark, 6 Aug 2015, Z.X. Zhu 225, HMJAU 34825, Ex-type culture CGMCC 3.18759.</p><p>Remarks.</p><p>Phylogenetic analyses based on RPB2 and TEF1-α indicated that Trichoderma zonatum belongs to the Chlorosporum clade, previously consisting of eight species, T. sinuosum, T. cremeum, T. surrotundum, T. chlorosporum, T. thelephoricola, T. rosulatum, T. cremeoides and T. costaricense . Phylogenetically, T. zonatum is most related to T. rosulatum and T. costaricense, but T. rosulatum is clearly distinguishable by dimorphic ascospores, gliocladium -like conidiophores, production of abundant chlamydospores and rosulate colony on CMD (Zhu and Zhuang 2015); T. costaricense produces dimorphic and larger ascospores (5.5-6.0 × 5.2-5.7 μm), verticillium-like conidiophores and ellipsoidal to cylindrical conidia (Chaverri and Samuels 2003, Zhu and Zhuang 2015).</p><p>Species of the Chlorosporum clade usually produce pale yellow or pale green, semi-translucent stromata, globose to subglobose ascospores and gliocladium -like or verticillium-like conidiophores (Chaverri and Samuels 2003, Zhu and Zhuang 2015). Trichoderma zonatum is characterized by pulvinate, pale yellow to light brown stromata with densely disposed dark green to black ostioles, monomorphic ascospores, simple trichoderma-like conidiophores, green, (sub)globose to pyriform conidia. Morphologically, stromata of T. zonatum are not typical of the Chlorosporum clade and differ from all other species by relatively larger and non-transparent. It is most similar to T. chromospermum in gross stromata morphology, while the latter fungus clearly differs by much shorter asci [(78 –)85–90(– 102) μm], gliocladium -like conidiophores and ellipsoidal to cylindrical conidia (Chaverri and Samuels 2003, Zhu and Zhuang 2015).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/0478C84F7AA0F253E68723A7FEEF1653	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
