Here, we address the taxonomy of <i>Stigmatomyces</i> sensu lato, a diverse genus of obligate biotrophic fungi parasitizing flies (Diptera). Previous work suggested that <i>Stigmatomyces</i> is paraphyletic, as the well-delineated genus <i>Gloeandromyces</i> was nested within the genus, which resulted in the reinstatement of <i>Appendiculina</i> and <i>Fanniomyces</i>. We reconstructed a molecular phylogeny of <i>Stigmatomyces</i> sensu lato using three genetic markers (18S and 28S nuc rDNA, <i>TEF1α</i>) and significantly expanded taxon sampling. Our results recovered six well-supported clades, including the three aforementioned genera, <i>Stigmatomyces</i> sensu stricto, and two unnamed lineages. Although the internal relationships among these clades remain unresolved, morphological distinctions further support their delimitation. We provide arguments both for and against splitting of the genus. A formal split of <i>Stigmatomyces</i> is not proposed due to still limited data and especially the lack of sequences from the type species, <i>S. baeri</i>. However, our findings are in support of the splitting of <i>Stigmatomyces</i> sensu lato in the future. Based on molecular phylogenetic, morphological, and ecological data, we also describe two new species from Chile, <i>Appendiculina drosophilae-huillicheae</i> on <i>Drosophila huilliche</i> (Drosophilidae) and <i>Stigmatomyces beukii</i> on <i>Prosopantrum</i> sp. (Cnemospathididae). Based on morphological, ecological, and/or molecular phylogenetic data, we propose four new combinations: <i>Appendiculina dacina, A. majewskii, Bordea euconni</i>, and <i>Sphaleromyces montevideensis</i>. Finally, we validly publish <i>Stigmatomyces biformis</i> and propose <i>Stigmatomyces rakiurensis</i> to accommodate <i>S. australis</i> M.B. Hughes, A. Weir, Gillen & W.

Although <i>C. albicans</i> is the most common species related to serious infections, non-<i>albicans</i> species have also emerged with high rates of antifungal resistance. Drug repositioning is a great alternative to reduce and control fungal resistance and infections. Paroxetine (PRX) and fluoxetine (FLX), both selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors antidepressants, are promising drugs with antifungal and antibacterial activities according to the literature, but studies exploring their mechanism of action and usage in combination with other antifungal drugs are scarce. Therefore, we evaluated the in vitro activity of PRX and FLX against <i>Candida</i> spp. The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) were determined for PRX, FLX, and for the antifungals fluconazole, itraconazole, and amphotericin B (AMB), and checkerboard assay was performed to analyze the interactions between them. Furthermore, the possible mechanism of action was evaluated by flow cytometry, comet assay, measurement of protein oxidation, and determination of glutathione levels. The tested antidepressants had MIC values ranging from 8 to 128 μg/mL and mostly had synergistic interactions when combined with AMB. Additionally, their mechanisms of action can be related to the induction of severe oxidative stress that leads to apoptosis in fungal cells showing a synergistic effect when combined with AMB. Thus, the use of PRX and FLX may be an alternative to treat infections caused by resistant microorganisms, by enhanced effects at lower concentrations when combined with AMB, possibly reducing the risk of toxicity of both drugs.</p>","PeriodicalId":18779,"journal":{"name":"Mycologia","volume":" ","pages":"443-456"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2026-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147434332","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
