IMC7 Main Congress Theme II: SYSTEMATICS, PHYLOGENY AND EVOLUTION Posters<br />

Considerable progress has been made in the elucidation<br />

and stabilization <strong>of</strong> the concepts <strong>of</strong> Families, Orders and<br />

Classes <strong>of</strong> Pyenomycetes as reflected in Systema<br />

Ascomycetum and The Dictionary <strong>of</strong> the Fungi. From<br />

Systema Ascomycetum 2001, the Class Dothidiomycetes<br />

encompasses 7 Orders: Capnodiales (4 Families),<br />

Dothideales (4), Hysteriales (2), Myriangiales (2),<br />

Patellariales (1) and Pleosporales (19). These are ultimately<br />

based on the type species <strong>of</strong> 32 genera. The Class<br />

Chaetothyriomycetes has one recognized Order,<br />

Chaetothyriales, with two families plus<br />

Rhynchostomataceae without an assigned Order and<br />

Glyphium not formally assigned to either Family or Order.<br />

These ultimately are based on 4 species. Forty-three<br />

Families are provisionally assigned to Dothidiomycetes /<br />

Chaetothyriomycetes based on 43 generotype species. For<br />

79 genera, details are provided on the choice <strong>of</strong> the type<br />

species and the protologue <strong>of</strong> the type specimen in the hope<br />

that future work will focus first on these fundamental<br />

species rather than those chosen based on easy availability<br />

from culture collections.<br />

The order Dacrymycetales was established by Lindau<br />

(1897), grouping genera included in the family<br />

Dacrymycetaceae by Brefeld (1888) such as Calocera,<br />

Dacrymyces, Dacryomitra and Guepinia. Subsequently,<br />

other classifications have been proposed, those <strong>of</strong> Coker<br />

(1920), Neuh<strong>of</strong>f (1936), Brasfield (1938), Kobayasi<br />

(1939), Martin (1952), and more recently, Lowy (1971),<br />

McNabb in the 60's, Reid (1974) and Oberwinkler (1994).<br />

One <strong>of</strong> the commonly debated topic among these works is<br />

the number <strong>of</strong> recognized genera, since some authors<br />

accept 11 genera, whereas others recognize only 2. Jülich<br />

(1981) established the monotypic family Cerinomycetaceae<br />

for Cerinomyces. In Mexico this group has been partially<br />

studied (Lowy, 1968; 1971; 1983; Sierra, 1992; 1993;<br />

1995; 2000), for this reason the main objectives in the<br />

undergoing research <strong>of</strong> the senior author is to monograph<br />

the order at the national level and to apply new characters<br />

to its systematic. In order to contribute to clarify genera<br />

delimitation basidiome development was studied in 9<br />

species belonging to 5 genera. The methodology proposed<br />

by Kennedy (1972) was used with modifications in the<br />

fixation (FAA), staining (PAS, saffranin-fast green,<br />

toluidin blue, etc.) and infiltrating material (Paraplast).<br />

763 - Two new phytoparasitic forms <strong>of</strong> hyphomycete<br />

genus Mycovellosiella causing foliar spots from India<br />

The foliicolous hyphomycete genus Mycovellosiella is now<br />

well established and defined genus <strong>of</strong> over 150 species till<br />

date. Many species <strong>of</strong> the genus were earlier placed under<br />

other genera like Cercospora, Cercosporella,<br />

Cladosporium, Phaeoramularia, Ramularia and Stenella<br />

etc. Mycovellosiella can be characterised by its superficial<br />

secondry mycelium forming prostrate and procumbent<br />

hyphae and forming rope-like structures <strong>of</strong>ten ascending<br />

the leaf hairs, and micronematous to semimacronematous<br />

conidiophores. Thus fungus produces phragmosporic and<br />

catenate conidia in simple or branched chains with<br />

prominent hila. Mycovellosiella produces leaf-spot diseases<br />

ranging from discolouration to necrosis <strong>of</strong> the leaf tissues.<br />

In continuation <strong>of</strong> the earlier additions from this region, the<br />

present communication is devoted to the description and<br />

illustrations <strong>of</strong> two new species <strong>of</strong> Mycovellosiella viz., M.<br />

aegli sp. nov. and M. terminalae sp. nov. occuring on<br />

leaves <strong>of</strong> Aegle marmelos (Rutaceae) and Terminalea<br />

arjuna (Combritaceae) respectively. The concerned<br />

materials have been deposited in H.C.I.O., New Delhi,<br />

India. These species have been compared with their allied<br />

or similar taxa to justify its separate identity. The scrapmounts<br />

have been prepared in lact<strong>of</strong>uchsin and glycerine<br />

separately to observe these structures, under different<br />

magnifications <strong>of</strong> compound microscope.<br />

Pisum sativum in Denmark and several geographically<br />

widespread locations within the northern hemisphere from<br />

diverse substrates including white pine, Douglas fir,<br />

carnation, corn, carrot, barley and soil. Fusarium commune<br />
