Abstract

Two new genera, Neosphaeria and Phaeosphaeriopsis, are described to accommodate species of Paraphaeosphaeria that are not congeneric with that genus based on morphological characters, results of ITS and 18S rDNA sequence analyses, and base pair comparisons. Paraphaeosphaeria sensu stricto is restricted to species with two-septate ascospores and anamorphs that produce non-septate, smooth, pale brown conidia enteroblastically. Species in Neosphaeria have 3- or 4-septate ascospores and anamorphs that produce ovoid to ellipsoid, nonseptate, brown, verrucose or punctate conidia from percurrently proliferating conidiogenous cells. Paraphaeosphaeria barrii, P. conglomerata, P. filamentosa and P. quadriseptata are transferred to Neosphaeria. At present all species in the genus occur on Yucca (Agavaceae). Phaeosphaeriopsis is described for species that produce 4- or 5-septate ascospores. Known anamorphs produce cylindrical, 0- to 3- septate, brown, punctate conidia from percurrently proliferating conidiogenous cells or bacillar conidia from phialides. Paraphaeosphaeria agavensis, P. glauco-punctata, P. nolinae, and P. obtusispora are transferred to Phaeosphaeriopsis. Phaeosphaeriopsis amblyspora is described as a new species.
