Abstract

Myrmaeciella caraganae was recollected in and around Vienna, Austria, and found to be morphologically different from the type species of Myrmaeciella, M. endoleuca, on the generic level. We redescribed M. caraganae in the new genus Stromatonectria. Phylogenetic analyses of LSU sequences place the genus in the Bionectriaceae, Hypocreales. S. caraganae occurs on branches of Caragana spp., Colutea arborescens and Laburnum anagyroides of the Fabaceae. It is characterized by sphaeroid perithecia partly or entirely immersed in a Hypocrea-like stroma, a Nectria-like centrum and bicellular hyaline ascospores. Conidia of S. caraganae are produced in compound pycnidia that are formed prior to or in association with perithecia. Sporodochia but no pycnidia are formed in culture. We discussed genus Myrmaeciella compared S. caraganae with species of the Nectriacea,e including Nectria balansae, N. eustromatica and N. paraguayensis.
