Generally, Calosphaeriaceae species are saprobic, inhabiting dead wood and bark of various trees and shrubs. However, some species of Jattaea and Calosphaeria have also been associated with fruit trees, especially Prunus species, where they are implicated in cankers and necrotic lesions on woody tissues (Kazemzadeh-Chakusary et al. 2020).

Later, Réblová (2011) synonymized Jattaea prunicola with J. algeriensis following detailed morphological analysis and phylogenetic studies. Jattaea prunicola, originally introduced by Damm et al. (2008), was distinguished by its sexual morph and a phialophora-like anamorph observed in pure culture. Recently, J. algeriensis was isolated from the necrotic woody tissues of Mespilus germanica and Parrotia persica in Iran, identified based on both asexual morph features and phylogenetic analysis (Kazemzadeh-Chakusary et al. 2020). According to the multi-gene phylogenetic analyses of combined LSU, ITS, TUB sequence dataset, our new isolate (KUNCC 21-0604) nested with Jattaea algeriensis (CBS 120871, STE-U 6399) with 90 % ML and 0.95 BYPP bootstrap support (Fig. 1). Our new isolate (KUNCC 21-0604) shares similarities with Jattaea algeriensis (CBS 120871, MC 8938) in having perithecia, scattered, solitary, dark brown to black ascomata with papilla; brown cells of textura angularis peridium; unitunicate, clavate, short-stipitate asci; and aseptate, suballantoid, hyaline ascospores. However, there are differences in ascospore and ascomata morphology, Jattaea algeriensis (CBS 120871, MC 8938) has hyaline to pale yellow-brown ascospores with an appendage at the base and uni-loculate ascomata, while our new isolate (KUNCC 21-0604) has hyaline ascospores without appendages and multi-loculate ascomata (Damm et al. 2008; Réblová 2011). Sequence comparison for the ITS and LSU region between our isolates (KUNCC 21-0604) and J. algeriensis (CBS 120871, STE-U 6399) showed no significant base pair differences. Therefore, we identified our taxon as a new host record of J. algeriensis from Myrsine seguinii ( Myrsinaceae), and new geographic record in China.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/EF527B3DE5C353739092D0F2409748D7	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Claviformispora currently comprises one species, Linocarpon 45 species and Neolinocarpon 14 species (Luo et al. 2025; Index Fungorum 2026). Species of Linocarpon and Neolinocarpon are characterized by narrow and long filiform, hyaline ascospores, often with refringent bands. In contrast, Claviformispora is distinguished by its clavate ascospores and a bambusicolous habitat (Xu et al. 2020).

The morphological characteristics of Neolinocarpon lincangense is similar to other species by its immersed ascomata with an ostiole, cylindrical asci with a wedge-shaped, J-, and subapical ring and filiform ascospores (Senwanna et al. 2018). However, Neolinocarpon arengae, N. australiense, N. calami, N. enshiense, N. eutypoides, N. globosicarpum, N. rachidis differs from our collection by the mucilaginous appendage (Hyde 1992; Hyde et al. 1998; Konta et al. 2017; Senwanna et al. 2018). The other six Neolinocarpon species differ from our new collection: N. attaleae has filiform - fusoid to clavate ascospores, N. inconspicuum has inconspicuous ascomata, N. nonappendiculatus has comparatively larger ascospores (114–138 × 2–2.5 μm), N. nypicola has immersed fruiting bodies, beneath light brown circular regions with a blackened outline, with 1–4 ostioles, N. pennies has comparatively smaller ascospores ((52) 57–64 (- 84) × 2.5–3), N. phayaoense has hyaline to pale brown ascospores, and tapering towards the base (Hyde et al. 1998; Hyde and Alias 1999; Bhilabutra et al. 2006; Vitoria et al. 2013; Senwanna et al. 2018).

Comparative analysis of the ITS, LSU and tef 1 - α sequence data between our isolate KUNCC 21-0586 and T. tiliae (CPC 45933, ex-type) revealed nucleotide differences of 0.9 % (5 / 546 bp, without gaps), 0.6 % (5 / 811 bp, without gaps), and 3.9 % (34 / 883 bp, without gaps), respectively. Morphologically, our collection T. tiliae shares several morphological features, including scattered stromata, perithecial ascomata immersed in stromata, cylindrical and septate paraphyses, unitunicate cylindrical asci with 8 spores, and septate ascospores (Crous et al. 2024).
