A new species of Papiliomyces (Clavicipiteae, Hypocreales) from China.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Papiliomyces (Hypocreales, Sordariomycetes) was introduced to accommodate two species: Papiliomycesliangshanensis and Papiliomycesshibinensis. Later, Papiliomycesliangshanensis was renamed Ophiocordycepsliangshanensis. However, the Papiliomycesliangshanensis molecular data (Nepalese) used to establish the Papiliomyces genus was different from Ophiocordycepsliangshanensis (China) strains.

New information

This paper describes a new species, Papiliomyceslongiclavatus, found in Yangchang District, Guiyang City, Guizhou Province, China. It is proposed, based on morphology and multilocus phylogeny (ITS, SSU, LSU, TEF1, RPB1 and RPB2). The new species is phylogenetically most closely rela
