Abstract

Trichoderma eijii and T. pseudolacteum, are described here as new species from Japan. These species were isolated from decaying wood in the Tomakomai Experimental Forest in Hokkaido Prefecture and from bedlogs on shiitake mushroom (Lentinula edodes) farms, respectively. The species were characterized using a combined approach that included cultural studies, holomorph morphology, and phylogenetic analyses of internal transcribed spacer and protein coding gene sequences (RNA polymerase subunit II, translation elongation factor 1-?, endochitinase, and actin). The results of phylogenetic analyses of these gene sequences indicate that T. eijii belongs to the Hamatum clade and is closely related to Hypocrea pezizoides, H. flaviconidia, and H. atroviridis/T. atroviride, from which it differs mainly in part-ascospore size and anamorphic characteristics. Trichoderma pseudolacteum, which was previously recognized as H. lactea sensu Doi, is morphologically distinct from H. lactea (= Hypocrea citrina) and is strongly supported as a separate lineage based on our phylogenetic analyses.
