“…A basal frill, the remnant of the bitunicate wall, may occur at the base of mature asci ( Johnston & Minter 1989 ). This same ascus morphological development was observed for all species examined in this study, and was also observed in the recently described Caliciopsis beckhausii and C. valentina ( Garrido-Benavent & Pérez-Ortega 2015 ). In some genera of the Sordariales ( Jattaea , Pleurostoma , and Togninia ) that are not closely related to typical bitunicate fungi, so-called remnant bases remain on the ascogenous hyphae after detachment of mature, undamaged asci, or hair-like structures were observed at the bases of asci that are reminiscent of the frills at the ascus base of Coryneliomycetidae ( Réblová et al 2004 , Mostert et al 2006 , Damm et al 2008a , b ).…”

“…These characters distinguish the Coryneliales from all other members of the Euryotiomycetidae ( Eurotiales , Onygenales ). The Coryneliaceae currently contains seven genera: Corynelia (7 species), Lagenulopsis (1), Tripospora (4) ( Catania & Romero 2001 ), Caliciopsis (29) ( Garrido-Benavent & Pérez-Oriega 2015 ), Coryneliopsis (2), Coryneliospora (2), and Fitzpatrickella (1) ( www.indexfungorum.org , www.mycobank.org ), of which the first three mentioned are obligate parasites only recorded on members of the Podocarpaceae . Johnston & Minter (1989) suggested that Coryneliopsis (on Cyttaria galls on Nothofagus ) does not belong to this family, and Benny et al (1985b) excluded Corynelia sydowii .…”

Species belonging to the Coryneliaceae and parasitizing Podocarpaceae hosts were collected from different locations in South Africa and studied morphologically by light microscopy and molecularly by obtaining partial nrDNA (ITS-1/5.8S/ITS-2, 18S and 28S) gene sequences. The position of the Coryneliaceae within the Eurotiomycetidae was not confirmed and a new subclass, Coryneliomycetidae, was introduced. While Eurotiomycetidae usually form cleistothecia/gymnothecia with evanescent, unitunicate asci, and Chaetothyriomycetidae mostly perithecia with bitunicate/fissitunicate to evanescent asci, Coryneliomycetidae form pseudothecial mazaedial ascomata, initially with double-walled asci with the outer layer deliquescing, resulting in passive ascospore release. The Coryneliomycetidae thus occupies a unique position in the Eurotiomycetes. Furthermore, epitypes were designated for Corynelia uberata, the type species of Corynelia (type genus of the family, order and subclass), Lagenulopsis bispora, the type species of Lagenulopsis, and Tripospora tripos the type species of Tripospora, with Lagenulopsis and Tripospora confirmed as belonging to the Coryneliaceae. Corynelia uberata resolved into three clades, one on Afrocarpus (= Podocarpus) falcatus and A. gracilior, and two clades occurring on P. latifolius, herein described as C. africana and C. fructigena. Morphologically these three species are not readily distinguishable, although they differ in spore dimensions, ascomata shape, ornamentation and DNA phylogeny. It is likely that several more species from other parts of the world are currently erroneously placed in C. uberata.

“…Those authors showed that species of Caliciopsis that had not had their identity confirmed by DNA sequence data might not actually belong to the genus, and thus, their morphology may not be representative of the genus. If only the nine species confirmed as Caliciopsis by sequence data are taken into account (Table 3), the common morphological traits are ascomata over 1 mm tall (except for C. indica and C. moriondi), with the ascigerous swelling terminal to subterminal (except C. calicioides), ascospores ellipsoidal to subglobose or ovoid (except C. indica) with smooth walls (Fitzpatrick, 1942b;Garrido-Benavent & Pérez-Ortega, 2015;Migliorini et al, 2020;Pratibha et al, 2010).…”

Pewenomyces kutranfy gen. nov. et sp. nov. causal agent of an important canker disease on Araucaria araucana in Chile

Araucaria araucana, (commonly referred to as araucaria, pewen, or monkey puzzle tree) is an ancient conifer endemic to the Chilean and Argentinian mountain ranges where it has a sacred relevance to indigenous communities. During 2015, a serious disease was noticed on trees of all ages in most of the natural distribution of this iconic tree. Four areas were surveyed, and the most important symptoms of the disease were cankers on branches and stems resulting in copious resin exudation. Trees were monitored for a period of two years and isolations were made from the cankers. Field observations showed that the disease typically begins on the leaves or at the leaf bases and progresses downwards to initiate cankers that can girdle branches or stems within a two‐year period. Black ascomata, resembling those of Caliciopsis species previously described from A. araucana, were consistently found developing in the cankers from which isolations were made. Phylogenetic analyses of the ITS, nucSSU, and nucLSU gene regions showed that the fungus resides in the Coryneliaceae but is distinct from other genera in that family. The morphological characteristics and phylogenetic position of the fungus show that it represents a new genus and species, described here as Pewenomyces kutranfy gen. nov. et sp. nov. Pathogenicity trials on trees under field conditions confirmed that this newly described fungus is able to cause cankers on A. araucana similar to those found under natural conditions.

“…Notes — The genus Caliciopsis belongs to the Coryneliaceae ( Coryneliales , Coryneliomycetidae ) ( Wood et al 2016 ), and has phoma-like asexual morphs ( Garrido-Benavent & Pérez-Ortega 2015 ). Phylogenetically, C. eucalypti is related to but distinct from C. beckhausii (conidia 3.5–4.5 × 1–1.5 μm; ITS GenBank KP144005, Identities = 538/581 (93 %), Gaps = 19/581 (3 %)), C. calicioides (conidial dimensions unknown; ITS GenBank JX968549; Identities = 547/596 (92 %), Gaps = 20/596 (3 %)) and C. valentina (conidia 4–5 × 1–1.5 μm; ITS GenBank KP144008; Identities = 490/527 (93 %), Gaps = 17/527 (3 %)) ( Garrido-Benavent & Pérez-Ortega 2015 ) and has smaller conidia.…”
