Abstract

While revising the species so far classified in Didymosphaeria (Melanommatales, Ascomycetes), many species were found to belong to other genera. Some species are repositioned here. Two genera are reinstated: Phaeodothis Sydow (Pleosporales, Phaeosphaeriaceae) and Roussoëlla Saccardo (Xylariales, Amphisphaeriaceae). Three new genera are described: Aaosphaeria Aptroot (Pleosporales, ?Dacampiaceae), Flagellosphaeria Aptroot (Xylariales, Amphisphaeriaceae) and Munkovalsaria Aptroot (Pleosporales, Dacampiaceae). Three new species are described: Astrosphaeriella papuana Aptroot, Munkovalsaria rubra Aptroot, Van der Aa & O. Petrini and Parapyrenis maritima Aptroot. The following new combinations are proposed: Aaosphaeria arxii (Van der Aa) Aptroot, Flagellosphaeria polytrichospora (Lucas & Sousa da Câmara) Aptroot, Megalotremis megalospora (Vainio) Aptroot, Montagnula longipes (Trabut) Aptroot, Montagnula opulenta (De Notaris) Aptroot, Montagnula palmacea (Cooke) Aptroot, Montagnula spartii (Castagne) Aptroot, Munkovalsaria donacina (Niessl) Aptroot, Mycomicrothelia pachytheca (Saccardo & Sydow) Aptroot, Parapyrenis maclurae (Savulescu & Sandu) Aptroot, Parapyrenis tecomatis (Berkeley & M. A. Curtis ex Cooke) Aptroot, Phaeodothis ribesiella (Nylander ex Vainio) Aptroot, Phaeodothis winteri (Niessl) Aptroot, Roussoella minutella (Penzig & Saccardo) Aptroot, Roussoëlla scabrispora (Höhnel) Aptroot and Roussoëlla serrulata (Ellis & G. Martin) K. D. Hyde & Aptroot. The new name Astrosphaeriella minima Aptroot is proposed for Didymosphaeria fusispora Penzig & Saccardo.
