The most notable difference between A. sinensis and other species of Ascopolyporus is its habitat. All previously described species in the genus are associated with scale insects and are attached to the midribs of plant stems and leaves or directly parasitize plants (Thanakitpipattana et al. 2022; Yu et al. 2023). In contrast, A. sinensis was isolated from the stroma of M. puerensis . In addition, A. sinensis produces a pale purplish-pink pigment that diffuses into PDA medium, similar to A. griseoperitheciatus Khons., Thanakitp. &amp; Luangsa-ard. Morphologically, however, the former can be distinguished from the latter by its shorter phialides (13.7–25.2 μm vs. 43–265 μm) (Thanakitpipattana et al. 2022). Among Ascopolyporus species, only A. sinensis and A. tibetensis F. M. Yu et al. have been recorded in China. These two species are phylogenetically distant, and because A. tibetensis has been reported only from sexual stromata in nature, with no successful strain isolation to date, morphological comparison between the two species is difficult.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/D84111A978D255CABE95DA509EBD49E5	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

All three species are parasitic on lepidopteran pupae and occur only as asexual morphs in nature (Crous et al. 2023; Chuang et al. 2024). Morphologically, their conidia are often formed in imbricate chains at the apices of phialides. The host pupae of C. anningensis are inside cocoons rolled in dry branches and fallen leaves, whereas the hosts of the other two species are not wrapped in such materials. Furthermore, the synnemata of C. anningensis arise irregularly across the host body, whereas those of C. sandindaengensis emerge from the upper part of the host (Crous et al. 2023). Cordyceps anningensis produces smaller conidia (2.1–3.3 × 1.3–2.4 µm) than C. locastrae (3–3.5 × 2.5–3 µm) (Chuang et al. 2024).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/767907A7A34C53DAB87B6914C38A28B6	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Because of the lack of comprehensive morphological documentation for A. napoleonae and H. cf. discoidea, direct morphological comparisons with these taxa are currently limited. Morphologically, H. umbilicata is easily distinguished from the closely related H. calendulina and H. limushanensis by its pulvinate stromata with a navel-like depression and notch at the center, whereas the stromata of the latter two species lack this feature (Mongkolsamrit et al. 2009; Wang et al. 2025). Furthermore, H. calendulina differs in having vividly marigold-orange stromata, whereas those of H. umbilicata are yellow to pale brown. Hypocrella umbilicata also has smaller perithecia (201–344 × 115–156 μm vs. 380–500 × 170–220 μm in H. calendulina) (Mongkolsamrit et al. 2009).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/761C4DA02AC45AA28114F97EBC93D46B	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
