Stilbocrea walteri sp. nov., an unusual species of Bionectriaceae.

???displayArticle.abstract???
The new species Stilbocrea walteri is described and illustrated from Quercus ilex collected in Portugal. Phylogenetic analyses of LSU rDNA, rpb1, rpb2 and tef1 sequence matrices place S. walteri in the Bionectriaceae, Hypocreales, within a clade of specimens morphologically identified as Stilbocrea macrostoma, the generic type of Stilbocrea. Stilbocrea walteri differs from S. macrostoma in dark olive green to blackish ascomata basally immersed in a stroma, KOH+ and LA+ ascomata and the lack of a stilbella-like asexual morph on natural substrate and pure culture. A simple phialidic asexual morph is formed in pure culture. To enable a morphological comparison, Stilbocrea macrostoma is illustrated.
Fig. 1. Phylogram obtained by PAUP from an analysis of the LSU matrix of selected Hypocreales, showing one of 24 most parsimonious trees 1202 steps long. Stilbocrea walteri is revealed as a species of the Bionectriaceae. GenBank accession numbers of sequences are given following the taxon names. The country of origin is provided for accessions within the Stilbocrea clade. Isolates in bold were sequenced during the present study; thickened internal branches are present in the strict consensus of all 24 MP trees. MP and ML bootstrap support above 50% are given at first and second position, respectively, above or below the branches

GenBank accession numbers of sequences are given following the taxon names; isolates in bold were sequenced during the present study. MP and ML bootstrap support above 50% are given at first and second position, respectively, above or below the branches
