Bactrodesmium chinense and B. lushanense spp. nov. and B. novageronense newly recorded from China
Three specimens of Bactrodesmium were collected on dead branches of unidentified plants from subtropical forests in Jiangxi, China. Two represent new species: B. chinense is distinguished by its ellipsoidal to broadly fusiform 9–11-euseptate verrucose reddish brown conidia with pale brown to subhyaline end cells; B. lushanense is characterized by its variably shaped (obovoid, clavate, ellipsoid) verrucose dark brown to black conidia with 3–6 dark-banded eusepta and paler basal cells. The third specimen represents, B. novageronense, a new record for China. The three species are described, illustrated, and compared with similar taxa.
