Abstract:
This article is the fourth in the Asian Journal of Mycology Notes series, enabling researchers to report 50 new fungal collections, including fungus-host and fungus-taxa. Herewith, we report the distribution of taxa in two phyla (Ascomycota and Basidiomycota), four classes (Dothideomycetes, Leotiomycetes, Sordariomycetes, and Agaricomycetes), 18 orders, and 30 families. The present study provides descriptions and illustrations for six new species (Amniculicola yunnanensis, Melanographium reniforme, Mucispora yunnanensis, Neomassaria yunnanensis, Neoarthrinium bambusae, and Tryblidiopsis xizangensis), 19 new records, 19 new host records, and five new host and geographical records. This article aims to enhance knowledge of novel fungi, their host occurrence, and geography reports. Comprehensive descriptions, illustrations, and multi-gene phylogenetic trees show the placements of the described taxa. Additionally, a platform for disseminating data on fungal collections, including new sequence data, could support future studies. This study aims to expand knowledge on fungal taxa, their host occurrences, and geographical distribution. Detailed descriptions, illustrations, and multi-locus phylogenetic analyses are provided to clarify taxonomic placements.
