Abstract

Occultibambusaceae (Pleosporales, Dothideomycetes) is a family that includes saprobic taxa associated with monocotyledons as well as hardwoods (e,g, teak). DNA- based studies have determined four genera within the family. In this study, we introduce a new species of Neooccultibambusa with evidence from morphology and analyses of combined LSU, SSU and RPB2 sequence data. The novel taxon is characterized by immersed to semi-immersed ascomata in fissures of bark, central periphysate ostioles, a two- layered peridium, filiform, septate, cellular pseudoparaphyses, cylindrical to subcylindrical asci, guttulate, hyaline to brown ascospores and in producing asexual morph chlamydospores in culture. The phylogenetic analysis indicates that the species belongs to Neooccultibambusa and forms a separate clade in the genus. Neooccultibambusa jonesii can be readily distinguished from the generic type, N. chiangraiensis by its2-septate, mature dark brown ascospores lacking a mucilaginous sheath.
