(Strigulales, Ascomycota)}, year = {2021}, keywords = {diversity, morphology, new taxa, Strigulaceae, systematics}, doi = {}, url = {http://}, pmid = {}, journal = {Persoonia}, volume = {}, number = {}, pages = {}, abstract = {We employed a molecular phylogenetic approach using five markers (ITS, nuSSU, nuLSU, TEF1-α, RPB2) to assess potential cryptic speciation in foliicolous members of Strigula s.lat. (Strigulaceae), including the recently segregated genera Phylloporis, Puiggariella, Raciborskiella, Racoplaca, and Serusiauxiella, from tropical areas in Asia, and Central and South America, with selected material from the Neotropics as reference. On the basis of combined molecular and phenotypic data, two new species of Racoplaca and ten new species of Strigula s.str. are established: Racoplaca macrospora sp. nov., R. maculatoides sp. nov., Strigula guangdongensis sp. nov., S. intermedia sp. nov., S. laevis sp. nov., S. microcarpa sp. nov., S. peudoantillarum sp. nov., S. pseudosubtilissima sp. nov., S. pycnoradians sp. nov., S. sinoconcreta sp. nov., S. stenoloba sp. nov., and S. subtilissimoides sp. nov. In addition, we propose the new combination Phylloporis palmae comb. nov., based on Manaustrum palmae. Our data indicate a considerable degree of cryptic diversification in foliicolous representatives of Strigula s.lat. particularly in the presumably widespread taxa S. antillarum, S. concreta, S. nitidula, and S. smaragdula. Given that these phylogenetic revisions are thus far limited to few regions, we predict that our findings only represent the proverbial tip of the iceberg.} }
