Arecophila bambusae sp. nov. and A. coronata comb. nov., from dead culms of bamboo

Abstract

A new species of Arecophila and a species previously known as Amphisphaeria coronata are described and illustrated from dead culms of bamboo. Arecophila bambusae sp. nov. is distinct in the genus in having ellipsoidal ascospores with slightly round ends, and asci with a narrow subapical ring. Arecophila coronata comb. nov. has asci with a wedge-shaped apical ring and weakly striated ascospores enclosed in wide mucilaginous sheath.
