abstract = {Abstract The Teratosphaeriaceae represents a recently established family that includes numerous saprobic,
extremophilic, human opportunistic, and plant pathogenic fungi. Partial DNA sequence data of the 28S rRNA and
RPB2 genes strongly support a separation of the Mycosphaerellaceae from the Teratosphaeriaceae, and also pro-
vide support for the Extremaceae and Neodevriesiaceae, two novel families including many extremophilic fungi that
occur on a diversity of substrates. In addition, a multi-locus DNA sequence dataset was generated (ITS, LSU, Btub,
Act, RPB2, EF-1α and Cal) to distinguish taxa in Mycosphaerella and Teratosphaeria associated with leaf disease
of Eucalyptus, leading to the introduction of 23 novel genera, five species and 48 new combinations. Species are
distinguished based on a polyphasic approach, combining morphological, ecological and phylogenetic species con-
cepts, named here as the Consolidated Species Concept (CSC). From the DNA sequence data generated, we show
that each one of the five coding genes tested, reliably identify most of the species present in this dataset (except
species of Pseudocercospora). The ITS gene serves as a primary barcode locus as it is easily generated and has
the most extensive dataset available, while either Btub, EF-1α or RPB2 provide a useful secondary barcode locus.}
