Two new acremonium-like species, <i>Paragibellulopsissinensis</i> sp. nov. and <i>Phialoparvumsinense</i> sp. nov. (Sordariomycetes, Ascomycota) from China.

ABSTRACT: Paragibellulopsis and Phialoparvum, both erected in 2018, currently comprise merely one and three validly published species, respectively. The identification of two new species, Paragibellulopsissinensis and Phialoparvumsinense, was achieved by analyzing morphological characteristics and phylogenetic data obtained from four molecular markers (ITS, LSU, rpb2, and tef-1α). Morphologically, Pa.sinensis possessed short conidiogenous cells and aseptate and smaller conidia. On the other hand, Ph.sinense had obovate conidia and longer phialides. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that Pa.sinensis formed an independent branch as a sister species to Pa.chrysanthemi, whereas Ph.sinense clustered in a monophyletic clade with a s
