A. G. Irwin	<div><p>Acrocalymma Alcorn &amp; J. A. G. Irwin, Trans. Br. mycol. Soc. 88 (2): 163 (1987)</p><p>Notes.</p><p>Alcorn and Irwin (1987) introduced Acrocalymma to include A. medicaginis, which was recorded as a root pathogen on Medicago in Australia. Acrocalymma species show cosmopolitan distribution worldwide (e. g., Australia, China, Egypt, India, Spain, Thailand, and the United States). Their host specificity is also not yet determined and has been recorded from various host families (e. g., Amaranthaceae, Arecaceae, Cucurbitaceae, Cycadaceae, Fagaceae, Lamiaceae, Magnoliaceae, and Moraceae) (Trakunyingcharoen et al. 2014; Jayasiri et al. 2019; Dong et al. 2020; Mortimer et al. 2021; Tennakoon et al. 2021; Calabon et al. 2023; Konta et al. 2023). Most Acrocalymma species have been recorded as coelomycetous, and two species have sexual morph, A. pterocarpi and A. hongheense (Jayasiri et al. 2019; Mortimer et al. 2021). The asexual morph exhibits papillate pycnidia and aseptate, hyaline conidia, which have appendages (Trakunyingcharoen et al. 2014; Jayasiri et al. 2019; Dong et al. 2020), whereas the sexual morph has immersed or semi-immersed, globose to subglobose, ostiolate ascomata, cylindric-clavate asci, and hyaline, fusiform, 1 - septate ascospores with distinct sheath (Jayasiri et al. 2019; Mortimer et al. 2021). To date, there are 19 Acrocalymma species in Species Fungorum (2025).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/9463BE71AA3156FF9BA932830A3E5A7F	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Our collection shares similar morphological characteristics with P. archidendri by having pycnidial, immersed to semi-immersed, dark brown to black conidiomata, globose to doliiform conidiogenous cells, and subglobose to ellipsoid, olivaceous-brown, aseptate conidia (Damm et al. 2008; Paul and Lee 2014; Verkley et al. 2014; Nakashima et al. 2019; Tennakoon et al. 2022).

Mycol. 50 (2): 327 (2004)</p><p>Notes.</p><p>Verkley et al. (2004) introduced Paraconiothyrium, which includes four species: P. estuarinum (type species), P. brasiliense, P. cyclothyrioides, and P. fungicola . Paraconiothyrium species have variable morphological characteristics, including eustromaticto pycnidial conidiomata, phialidic or annelidic conidiogenous cells, smooth-walled or minutely warted, hyaline or brown conidia (Verkley et al. 2004; Damm et al. 2008; Paul and Lee 2014). The life modes of Paraconiothyrium can vary, as they are primarily reported as saprobes, with some species also being identified as endophytes and pathogens (Khan et al. 2012; Nakashima et al. 2019; Wang et al. 2021; Guarnaccia et al. 2022; Tennakoon et al. 2022). They also have diverse bioactive functions with potential applications in agriculture, medicine, and industrial sectors (Wang et al. 2021). To date, 28 species of Paraconiothyrium have been listed in Species Fungorum (2025). In this study, we introduce a new host record of P. archidendri from Citrus maxima in China.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/32A6DD7D7DC85B67845D028CB14D7976	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Padova: [1] (1879)</p><p>Notes.</p><p>Spegazzinia is a diverse, hyphomycetous genus introduced by Saccardo (1880) to include S. ornata as the type species. Spegazzinia species have been reported mainly as saprobes on litter of tropical, subtropical, and temperate vascular plants (Matsushima 1980; Lu et al. 2000; Manoharachary and Kunwar 2010; Thambugala et al. 2017). Additionally, some have been identified as endophytes (e. g., S. tessarthra and S. bromeliacearum) (Manish et al. 2014; Crous et al. 2019). Apart from that, Spegazzinia species have also been found in soil (Ellis 1971). The morphological characteristics of Spegazzinia are quite distinct from those of other hyphomycetous genera due to its pleomorphism (Mena-Portales et al. 2017). They have two types of conidia in the same mycelium, such as α and β conidia. Some species have spines in both types of conidia, while some taxa do not bear spines. Currently, 28 Spegazzinia species are listed in Species Fungorum (2025). In this study, we introduce a new host record of S. deightonii from a dead leaf of Arundo pliniana in China.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/CE013A4B2B025C1280F47BEB26386947	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
