This study deals with an extensive taxonomic reevaluation focusing on phylogenetic relationships and morphological characterization of Tubeufiales,especially those helicosporous hyphomycetes which are difficult to identify.Based on evidence from DNA sequence data and morphology,we introduce 13 new genera in the family Tubeufiaceae,viz.Acanthotubeufia,Dematiohelicoma,Dematiohelicomyces,Dematiohelicosporum,Dematiotubeufia,Helicoarctatus,Heli-cohyalinum,Helicotruncatum,Neochlamydotubeufia,Neohelicoma,Pleurohelicosporium,Pseudohelicomyces and Pseu-dohelicoon;transfer Chaetosphaerulina from Dothideomycetes genera incertae sedis,and Artocarpomyces and Helicodochium from Ascomycetes genera incertae sedis into Tubeufiaceae;introduce 52 new species,viz.Berkleasmium fusiforme,B.longisporum,Chlamydotubeufia cylindrica,Dematiohelicosporum guttulatum,Helicoarctatus aquaticus,Helicodochium aquaticum,Helicohyalinum infundibulum,Helicoma aquaticum,H.brunneisporum,H.cocois,H.rufum,H.fusiforme,H.longisporum,H.multiseptatum,H.rubriappendiculatum,H.septoconstrictum,H.tectonae,Helicomyces hyalosporus,Helicosporium aquaticum,H.flavisporum,H.setiferum,H.vesicarium,H.viridiflavum,Neochlamydo-tubeufia fusiformis,Neohelicomyces hyalosporus,Neohelicosporium acrogenisporum,N.astrictum,N.ellipsoideum,N.irregulare,N.krabiense,N.laxisporum,N.ovoideum,Pleurohelicosporium parvisporum,Pseudohelicomyces aquaticus,P.hyalosporus,Tubeufia abundata,T.bambusicola,T.brevis,T.brunnea,T.chlamydospora,T.dictyospora,T.eccentrica,T.fangchengensis,T.hechiensis,T.inaequalis,T.krabiensis,T.rubra,T.sessilis,T.sympodihylospora,T.sympodilaxispora,T.taiwanensis and T.tratensis;provide 43 new combinations,viz.Acanthohelicospora guianensis,Acanthotubeufia filiforme,Berkleasmium aquatica,B.guangxiense,B.latisporum,B.thailandicum,Dematiohelicoma perelegans,D.pulchrum,Dematiohelicomyces helicosporus,Dematiotubeufia chiangraiensis,Helicohyalinum aquaticum,Helicoma eli-norae,H.gigasporum,H.hongkongense,H.linderi,H.nematosporum,H.pannosum,H.serpentinum,Helicomyces chiayien
This paper is the second in a series focused on providing a stable platform for the taxonomy of phytopathogenic fungi.It focuses on 25 phytopathogenic genera:Alternaria,Bipolaris,Boeremia,Botryosphaeria,Calonectria,Coniella,Corticiaceae,Curvularia,Elsinoe,Entyloma,Erythricium,Fomitiporia,Fulviformes,Laetisaria,Limonomyces,Neofabraea,Neofusicoccum,Phaeoacremonium,Phellinotus,Phyllosticta,Plenodomus,Pseudopyricularia,Tilletia,Venturia and Waitea,using recent molecular data,up to date names and the latest taxonomic insights.For each genus a taxonomic background,diversity aspects,species identification and classification based on molecular phylogeny and recommended genetic markers are provided.In this study,varieties of the genus Boeremia have been elevated to species level.Botryosphaeria,Bipolaris,Curvularia,Neofusicoccum and Phyllosticta that were included in the One Stop Shop 1 paper are provided with updated entries,as many new species have been introduced to these genera.
