In this study we present a polyphasic taxonomy regarding two widely distributed complexes of <i>Beauveria</i>: <i>B. asiatica</i> and <i>B. bassiana</i> s.lat. Some of the genetic groups as previously detected within both taxa were either confirmed or fused using population genomics. High levels of divergence were found between two clades in <i>B. asiatica</i> and among three clades in <i>B. bassiana</i>, supporting their subdivision as distinct species. Morphological examination focusing on the width and the length of phialides and conidia showed no difference among the clades within <i>B. bassiana</i> while conidial length was significantly different among clades within <i>B. asiatica</i>. The secondary metabolite profiles obtained by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) allowed a distinction between <i>B. asiatica</i> and <i>B. bassiana</i>, but not between the clades therein. Based on these genomic, morphological, chemical data, we proposed a clade of <i>B. asiatica</i> as a new species, named <i>B. thailandica</i>, and two clades of <i>B. bassiana</i> to respectively represent <i>B. namnaoensis</i> and <i>B. neobassiana</i> spp. nov. Such closely related but divergent species with different host ranges have potential to elucidate the evolution of host specificity, with potential biocontrol application. <b>Citation</b>: Kobmoo N, Arnamnart N, Pootakham W, et al. 2021.

According to available literature, between a dozen and twenty species may belong in the section, mostly represented in continental and boreal forests of Europe and North America. However, the limited phylogenetic and biogeographic coverage of the genus does not presently allow for a reliable assessment of its taxonomic boundaries, nor does it provide a complete picture of species diversity within sect. <i>Olivaceoumbrini</i>. In an ongoing effort to confer an evolutionary backbone to <i>Hygrophorus</i> systematics, we assembled and analysed a dataset comprising 268 intercontinental sequences, including holotypes of 7 taxa previously not positioned phylogenetically, and enriched with collections from largely unexplored Mediterranean and Anatolian ecosystems. Overall, 30 clades are identified within 5 distinct lineages, including 11 species putatively new to science. Seven of these are formally described here as <i>H. agathosmoides</i>, <i>H. albofloccosus</i>, <i>H. canadensis</i>, <i>H. limosus</i>, <i>H. marcocontui</i>, <i>H. pinophilus</i> and <i>H. pustulatoides</i> spp. nov. This enriched coverage of section <i>Olivaceoumbrini</i> s.lat. calls for a re-evaluation of its natural boundaries into a core monophyletic clade, including <i>H. olivaceoalbus</i> and five closely related lookalikes, as well as the assignment of the section rank to the four remaining lineages: sect. <i>Fuscocinerei</i> sect. nov., sect. <i>Limacini</i> sect. nov., sect. <i>Nudolidi</i> sect. nov. and sect. <i>Tephroleuci</i>, respectively. We also stabilize the usage of six historical names, <i>H. glutinifer</i>, <i>H. hyacinthinus</i>, <i>H. mesotephrus</i>, <i>H. olivaceoalbus</i>, <i>H. pustulatus</i> and <i>H. tephroleucus</i>, through designation of two neotypes, three lectotypes and four epitypes. <b>Citation</b>: Bellanger J-M, Lebeuf R, Sesli E, et al. 2021.

In a recent phylogenetic treatment of 499 isolates in the culture collection (CBS) of the Westerdijk Institute, we evaluated the families and genera accommodated in this order of important fungi. The present study presents multigene phylogenetic analyses for an additional 230 isolates, using ITS, <i>tef1</i>, <i>tub2</i>, LSU and <i>rpb2</i> loci, in combination with morphological data. Based on these data, 58 species are reduced to synonymy, and eight novel species are described. They include <i>Diplodia afrocarpi</i> (<i>Afrocarpus</i>, South Africa), <i>Dothiorella diospyricola</i> (<i>Diospyros</i>, South Africa), <i>Lasiodiplodia acaciae</i> (<i>Acacia</i>, Indonesia), <i>Neofusicoccum podocarpi</i> (<i>Podocarpus,</i> South Africa), <i>N. rapaneae</i> (<i>Rapanea,</i> South Africa), <i>Phaeobotryon ulmi</i> (<i>Ulmus</i>, Germany), <i>Saccharata grevilleae</i> (<i>Grevillea,</i> Australia) and <i>S. hakeiphila</i> (<i>Hakea,</i> Australia). The results have clarified the identity of numerous isolates that lacked Latin binomials or had been deposited under incorrect names in the CBS collection in the past. They also provide a solid foundation for more in-depth future studies on taxa in the order. Sequences of the <i>tef1</i>, <i>tub2</i> and <i>rpb2</i> genes proved to be the most reliable markers. At the species level, results showed that the most informative genes were inconsistent, but that a combination of four candidate barcodes (ITS, <i>tef1</i>, <i>tub2</i> and <i>rpb2</i>) provided reliable resolution. Furthermore, given the large number of additional isolates included in this study, and newly generated multigene DNA datasets, several species could also be reduced to synonymy. The study illustrates the value of reassessing the identity of older collections in culture collections utilising modern taxonomic frameworks and methods. <b>Citation</b>: Zhang W, Groenewald JZ, Lombard L, et al. 2021.

The hyphae originating from the base of the apothecia in &lt;i&gt;Arachnoscypha&lt;/i&gt; are considered anchoring hyphae (vs a subiculum) and &lt;i&gt;Arachnoscypha&lt;/i&gt; is excluded from &lt;i&gt;Arachnopezizaceae&lt;/i&gt;. A new genus, &lt;i&gt;Resinoscypha&lt;/i&gt;, is established to accommodate &lt;i&gt;Arachnopeziza variepilosa&lt;/i&gt; and &lt;i&gt;A. monoseptata&lt;/i&gt;, originally described in &lt;i&gt;Protounguicularia. Mimicoscypha&lt;/i&gt; and &lt;i&gt;Resinoscypha&lt;/i&gt; are distinguished among hyaloscyphoid fungi by long tapering multiseptate hairs that are not dextrinoid or glassy, in combination with ectal excipulum cells with deep amyloid nodules. Unique to &lt;i&gt;Resinoscypha&lt;/i&gt; is cyanophilous resinous content in the hairs concentrated at the apex and septa. Small intensely amyloid nodules in the hairs are furthermore characteristic for &lt;i&gt;Resinoscypha&lt;/i&gt; and &lt;i&gt;Eupezizella&lt;/i&gt;. To elucidate species limits and diversity in &lt;i&gt;Arachnopeziza&lt;/i&gt;, mainly from Northern Europe, we applied genealogical concordance phylogenetic species recognition (GCPSR) using analyses of individual datasets (ITS, LSU, &lt;i&gt;RPB1&lt;/i&gt;, &lt;i&gt;RPB2&lt;/i&gt;, &lt;i&gt;TEF-1α&lt;/i&gt;) and comparative morphology. Eight species were identified as highly supported and reciprocally monophyletic. Four of these are newly discovered species, with two formally described here, viz. &lt;i&gt;A. estonica&lt;/i&gt; and &lt;i&gt;A. ptilidiophila&lt;/i&gt;.

We tackled this issue by revisiting the so far unresolved subgenus <i>Leprocybe</i>, and focused on the largely unexplored Mediterranean hotspot of biodiversity. The sequencing and phylogenetic analysis of 161 vouchered collections from Austria, Cyprus, France, Germany, Italy and Spain, including 16 types, allowed for the delineation of 11 species in this lineage, three of them recognised as new to science and formally introduced as <i>C. jimenezianus</i>, <i>C. selinolens</i> and <i>C. viridans</i> spp. nov., respectively. Interestingly, the newly described species exhibit a strict Mediterranean distribution, and one of them is putatively endemic to the island of Cyprus, highlighting the remarkable potential of this neglected ecoregion to uncover further undescribed diversity of <i>Cortinarius</i> in the future. The present work also unveils 23 synonymies in this subgenus, as well as previously undetected crypticism within <i>C. venetus</i>. Next Generation Sequencing carried out on three old and contaminated holotypes, successfully decrypts their phylogenetic identity, including that of <i>C. leproleptopus</i>, finally settling the long-standing controversy over the taxonomic status of this species. A brief overview of each species in the subgenus is lastly provided and a key is proposed to facilitate the identification of presently known European taxa of <i>Leprocybe</i> in the field. <b>Citation</b>: Bidaud A, Loizides M, Armada F, et al. 2021.

Multigene analysis of the four molecular markers ITS, LSU, <i>TEF1-α</i>, and <i>RPB2</i> reveals that the genera within <i>Lophio-tremataceae</i> are phylogenetically well supported. <i>Lophiostoma myriocarpum</i> is recognised as a species of <i>Lophiotrema</i> in contrast to earlier concepts.
