Diaporthe corylicola H. Gao & X.L. Fan, Front. Cell. Infect. Microbiol. 11: 664366 (2021).

Description.

See Gao et al. (2021).

Specimens examined.

China, Beijing City, Yanqing District, Songshan National Nature Reserve , 40°30'4.32"N, 115°49'56.46"E, from branches of Corylus heterophylla , 17 Jun 2022, Y.K. Bai & X.L. Fan (BJFC CF202212148, cultures CFCC 58824 and 58825) .

Notes.

Diaporthe corylicola was isolated from Corylus heterophylla in Beijing, China ( Gao et al. 2021). This species is similar to D. coryli in culture morphology, but it can be distinguished by its longer and thinner alpha conidia (11.0-16.5 × 2.0-3.5 vs. 11.5-13.0 × 3.0-3.5 µm) ( Gao et al. 2021). The isolates in this study clustered with D. corylicola , while the phylogram supported it belonging to this species because of the identical DNA sequence.
