These characteristics are consistent with the generic concept of  Byssosphaeria (Barr 1990) . Phylogenetic analyses of the combined LSU, SSU, ITS, and tef- 1 α sequence data showed that  B. chishuiense (ACCC 35242) was sister to  B. villosa (GKM 204 N), and they reside within the  Melanommataceae (Fig. 1). Although  B. chishuiense and  B. villosa have the same-sized asci (140–200 × 17–25 vs. 140–200 × 17–25 μm),  B. chishuiense can be distinguished from  B. villosa in having larger ascospores (41.5–51.5 × 7–9 vs. 30–40 × 8–12 μm) and ascomata (520–740 vs. 430–500 μm diam.) and the absence of appendages (Samuels and Müller 1978). The main morphological differences between  Byssosphaeria spp. are detailed in Table 2. Additionally, comparing 828 nucleotides across the LSU gene region between  B. chishuiense and  B. villosa revealed 29 bp (3.50 %) differences. Our molecular data also support that  B. chishuiense and  B. villosa are phylogenetically distinct (Fig. 1).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/B97415BFE3755EAF9CD9C215E5F33DAC	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

(2020) introduced  Neobyssosphaeria, which was grouped with  Byssosphaeria to form a basal lineage in their phylogenetic analyses of combined LSU, SSU, and ITS sequence data. Morphologically, Phukhamsakda et al. (2020) distinguished  Neobyssosphaeria from  Byssosphaeria by immersed ascomata with central papilla filled with periphyses, cellular pseudoparaphyses, and broad fusiform and hyaline ascospores. However, these characters also exist in some  Byssosphaeria species. For example,  B. siamensis has ascomata with cellular pseudoparaphyses (Tian et al. 2015), and other species, such as  B. salebrosa and  B. villosa, have broad, fusiform, and hyaline ascospores (Samuels and Müller 1978; Barr 1984), being reminiscent of  Neobyssosphaeria clematidis (Phukhamsakda et al. 2020) . The only distinctive features are immersed ascomata in  Neobyssosphaeria and superficial ascomata in  Byssosphaeria . We regard it as not sufficient for the separation of these two genera (Sandoval-Denis et al. 2016; Sun et al. 2023). Additionally, in our phylogenetic analyses,  Neobyssosphaeria clematidis formed an internal clade within  Byssosphaeria . Therefore, we transfer  Neobyssosphaeria clematidis to  Byssosphaeria as  B. clematidis and treat  Neobyssosphaeria as a synonym of  Byssosphaeria .</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/7D600585F8C652AB91B92CAADCC30C34	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
