Upreti and Pant 1993). Multigene phylogenetic studies<br />
indicated that Arthopyrenia salicis, a typical species of<br />
Arthopyrenia, is located within <strong>Pleosporales</strong> in close<br />
proximity to bambusicolous species in the genus Roussoella,<br />
with its familial status remaining undetermined (Del Prado et<br />
al. 2006; Schochetal.2009; Zhang et al. 2009a).<br />

Ascocratera is a monotypic obligate marine fungus and<br />
is characterized by conical, crater-like, erumpent to<br />
superficial and carbonaceous ascomata, a depressed<br />
ostiole, a thick peridium, trabeculate pseudoparaphyses,<br />
bitunicate, fissitunicate and cylindrical asci, and ellipsoidal,<br />
hyaline, 1-septate (3-septate when senescent) ascospores<br />
surrounded by a sheath (Kohlmeyer 1986).<br />
Ascocratera was reported to be one of the most common<br />
marine fungi of the upper intertidal zone of dead<br />
mangrove roots, trunks and branches (Kohlmeyer 1986).<br />
Based on a multigene phylogenetic analysis, Ascocratera<br />
nested within the clade of Aigialaceae (Schoch et al.<br />
2009; Suetrong et al. 2009).<br />

Type species: Atradidymella muscivora M.L. Davey &<br />
Currah, Am. J. Bot. 96: 1283 (2009).<br />
Atradidymella was introduced as a pleosporalean genus<br />
parasitic on boreal bryophytes, and is characterized by
