Abstract

During our continuing survey (2012?2016) of saprophytic hyphomycetes from dead branches in the forest ecosystems of southern China, we collected several Acrodictys-like species. Acrodictys-like species are characterized by darkly pigmented and muriform conidia produced from holoblastic conidiogenous cells on macronematous, mononematous, cylindrical and unbranched or infrequently branched conidiophores. Phylogenetic analyses of LSU, SSU, ITS and β-tubulin sequence data leads us to propose two novel families, Acrodictaceae (Sordariomycetes) and Junewangiaceae (Sordariomycetes). In addition, a new genus, a new species and a new combinations are introduced. Two names, Acrodictys globulosa and Acrodictys malabarica, are resurrected.
