Triangularia backusii n. sp. was isolated from a soil sample collected in Ohio, U.S.A., and was subjected to alcohol treatment. Triangularia backusii is characterized by oval to pyriform perithecia, elongate-clavate asci, and obovoid ascospores with hyaline, gelatinous appendages. The ascospores are two-celled with a transverse septum; the upper cell is obovoid with a truncate base and brownish black to black and the lower cell is triangular and pale brown to brown. The conidial state is assignable to the genus Phialophora. The new species differs from other known Triangularia species in having the largest ascospores.

A new species of Carex sect. Rhomboidales, Carex concava, is described and illustrated from Hainan, China. The new species is similar to C. paracheniana but differs in having wider blades and longer sheaths of bracts; inflorescence with 3 spikes; terminal spike 2–6 cm long and with a 4–14 cm long peduncle; lateral spikes 3–6 cm long, loosely flowered and with 8–15 cm long peduncles; staminate glume ovate, 1-veined costa excurrent into a shortly awn ca. 0.3 mm; pistillate glume ovate, ca. 4 mm long, 1-veined costa excurrent into a awn ca. 1 mm; perigynia fusiform and green; nutlets inclined-oval, brownish black, with 3 angles deeply constricted at the middle and the side toward of spike-stalk deeply concave at base.

During our surveys of fungi of some areas adjacent to the Cholistan desert, Punjab, Pakistan, we collected a new species in Lepiota sect. Echinatae. It was found on loamy soil under Vachellia nilotica and is described and illustrated as new based on the distinct morphology and ITS nrDNA analysis. The new species, Lepiota haroonabadensis, is characterized macroscopically by a light yellowish orange pileus covered with brown squarrose scales, bright yellowish to yellowish red stipe with pale yellow spiny scales, and rudimentary annulus; and microscopically by ellipsoid basidiospores, narrowly clavate to clavate cheilocystidia, cylindrical to sub-cylindrical or ellipsoidal elements of the pileus covering and cylindrical to globose elements of the stipe covering. A full description, color photos, line illustrations and a phylogenetic tree to show the position of the new species are provided.

The position of this new species of Ganoid, under our commonly accepted classification, the author gave as follows:—After referring to the Polyodon folium of Laépède (the P. reticulata of Shaw, the Planirostra spatula of Owen), the paddle-fish or spoon-bill sturgeon of the Ohio and Mississippi and their tributaries, as a well-known species of the genus in question, Dr Handyside went on to state that the new species now to be described was first observed on a Chinese fishmonger's stall at Woosung, 12 miles from Shanghai, and had since been found in the Yang-tsze-Kiang, and, as was alleged, in the northern Japanese sea. He then sketched the history of the Polyodontidoæ family, and narrated the researches of Lacépède, Von Martens, Blakiston, Kaup, and Duméril.

A New Species

A new species of colubrid snake, Lycodon cathayasp. nov., is described based on two adult male specimens collected from Huaping Nature Reserve, Guangxi, southern China. In a phylogenetic analyses, the new species is shown to be a sister taxon to the clade composed of L. futsingensis and L. namdongensis with low statistical support, and can be distinguished from all known congeners by the significant genetic divergence in the mitochondrial cytochrome b gene fragment (p-distance ≥ 7.9%), and morphologically by the following combination of characters: (1) dorsal scales in 17–17–15 rows, smooth throughout; (2) supralabials eight, third to fifth in contact with eye, infralabials nine; (3) ventral scales 199–200 (plus two preventral scales), subcaudals 78; (4) loreal single, elongated, in contact with eye or not, not in contact with internasals; (5) a single preocular not in contact with frontal, supraocular in contact with prefrontal, two postoculars; (6) maxillary teeth 10 (4+2+2+2); (7) two anterior temporals, three posterior temporals; (8) precloacal plate entire; (9) ground color from head to tail brownish black, with 31–35 dusty rose bands on body trunk, 13–16 on tail; (10) bands in 1–2 vertebral scales broad in minimum width; (11) bands separate ground color into brownish black ellipse patches arranged in a row along the top of body and tail; (12) elliptical patches in 3–6 scales of the vertebral row in maximum width; (13) ventral surface of body with wide brownish black strip, margined with a pair of continuous narrow greyish white ventrolateral lines. With the description of the new species, 64 congeners are currently known in the genus Lycodon, with 16 species occurring in China.
