abstract = {Though several Diaporthe species have been reported in China, little is known about the species in nature reserves in Guizhou province. During a survey of fungi in six nature reserves in Guizhou province of China, twenty one Diaporthe isolates were collected from different woody hosts. Based on morphology, culture characteristics and molecular phylogenetic analysis, these isolates were characterized. Phylogenetic analysis of internal transcribed spacer region (ITS), combined with translation elongation factor 1-alpha (TEF), β-tubulin (TUB) and calmodulin (CAL) genes identified six known Diaporthe species and seven distinct lineages representing new Diaporthe species. The details of six known species: Diaporthe cercidis, D. cinnamomi, D. conica, D. nobilis, D. pascoei and D. sackstonii are given and the seven new species D. constrictospora, D. ellipsoidea, D. guttulata, D. irregularis, D. lenispora, D. minima, D. minuscula are described and illustrated. Among the 21 isolates, D. minima was the dominant species, accounting for 20% of the frequency of occurrence. This study revealed a high diversity of previously undescribed Diaporthe species associated with woody hosts in various nature reserves of Guizhou province, indicating that there is a potential of Diaporthe species remains to be discovered in this unique landform (Karst formations) in Guizhou province, China.}
