UnknownMulti-locus phylogeny unmasks hidden species within the specialised spider-parasitic fungus, Gibellula (Hypocreales, Cordycipitaceae) in Thailand.
Over 80 species of hypocrealean fungi are reported as pathogens of spiders and harvestmen. Among these fungi, the genus Gibellula is highly regarded as a specialised spider-killer that has never been reported to infect other arthropods. While more than 20 species of Gibellula are known...

UnknownUncovering cryptic species diversity of Ophiocordyceps (Ophiocordycipitaceae) associated with Coleoptera from Thailand.
This study advances our understanding of Ophiocordyceps, an extensively studied entomopathogenic fungus within the Ophiocordycipitaceae, particularly in Thailand. We introduce seven novel species associated with Coleoptera - O. albostroma, O. brunnea, O. capilli...

UnknownA phylogenetic assessment of Akanthomyces sensu lato in Cordycipitaceae (Hypocreales, Sordariomycetes): introduction of new genera, and the resurrection of Lecanicillium.
During entomopathogenic fungal surveys conducted in Thailand, 15 specimens tentatively classified under Akanthomyces sensu lato were identified. To gain a comprehensive understanding of their taxonomy, molecular phylogenies using combined LSU, TEF1, RPB1, and RPB2 sequenc...

UnknownNew mycoparasitic species in the genera Niveomyces and Pseudoniveomycesgen. nov. (Hypocreales: Cordycipitaceae), with sporothrix-like asexual morphs, from Thailand.
Four new species of the genus Niveomyces are described from Thailand. They were found as mycoparasites on: Ophiocordyceps infecting flies (Diptera) for Niveomyces albus; ants (Hymenoptera) for N. formicidarum; and leafhoppers (Hemiptera) for N. hir...

UnknownNovel and interesting Ophiocordyceps spp. (Ophiocordycipitaceae, Hypocreales) with superficial perithecia from Thailand.
Ophiocordyceps is a heterogeneous, species-rich genus in the order Hypocreales (Sordariomycetes, Ascomycota) that includes invertebrate-pathogenic taxa. In this study, seven new species in Ophiocordyceps producing superficial perithecia infecting various insect hosts (Lepidoptera, Hemiptera) are des...

UnknownIs Hyperdermium Congeneric with Ascopolyporus? Phylogenetic Relationships of Ascopolyporus spp. (Cordycipitaceae, Hypocreales) and a New Genus Neohyperdermium on Scale Insects in Thailand.
During surveys of insect pathogenic fungi (IPF) in Thailand, fungi associated with scale insects and plants were found to represent five new species of the genus Ascopolyporus in Cordycipitaceae. Their macroscopic features resembled both Hyperdermium and Ascopolyporus. Mo...

UnknownNew species in Aciculosporium, Shimizuomyces and a new genus Morakotia associated with plants in Clavicipitaceae from Thailand.
Three new fungal species in the Clavicipitaceae (Hypocreales, Ascomycota) associated with plants were collected in Thailand. Morphological characterisation and phylogenetic analyses based on multi-locus sequences of LSU, RPB1 and TEF1 showed that two species belong...

UnknownFungal pathogens occurring on Orthopterida in Thailand.
Two new fungal genera and six species occurring on insects in the orders Orthoptera and Phasmatodea (superorder Orthopterida) were discovered that are distributed across three families in the Hypocreales. Sixty-seven sequences generated in this study were used in a multi-locus phylogenetic st...

UnknownDiversity of Akanthomyces on moths (Lepidoptera) in Thailand.
Akanthomyces is a genus of invertebrate-pathogenic fungi from the family Cordycipitaceae (Ascomycota, Hypocreales). Its species occurs on two different types of hosts, spiders and insects, and in the latter case specifically Lepidoptera adults. Three new species of Akanthomyces, A. ...

UnknownBioactive metabolites from cultures of the entomopathogenic fungus <i>Pleurocordyceps ophiocordycipiticola</i> TBRC-BCC 9612.
Pleurocordyceps ophiocordycipiticola TBRC-BCC 9612, an entomopathogenic fungus collected from Khao Yai National Park, Thailand, was investigated for its secondary metabolites. Large-scale fermentation, followed by multistep chromatographic separation, resulted in the isolation of seven new co...
