A brand new genus and new species of carabid beetle, Yalongaphaenops erwini gen. et sp. nov., is described from mountains SW of Mianning City, Sichuan Province, China. This discovering, from one aspect, extends the recognized distribution of Chinese hypogean trechines, and from one other, it raises the higher restrict of their vertical distribution to just about 4000… Continue reading

Inopinatum lactosum gen. & comb. nov., the first yeast-like fungus in Leotiomycetes
Sporobolomyces lactosus is a pink yeast-like fungus that’s not congeneric with different members of Sporobolomyces (Basidiomycota, Microbotryomycetes, Sporidiobolales). During our ongoing research of pink yeasts we decided that S. lactosus was most carefully associated to Pseudeurotium zonatum (Ascomycota, Leotiomycetes, Thelebolales). A molecular phylogenetic evaluation utilizing sequences of the ITS area and the small and enormous subunit (SSU, LSU) rRNA genes, indicated that… Continue reading
Reappraisal of Immotthia in Dictyosporiaceae, Pleosporales: Introducing Immotthia bambusae sp. nov. and Pseudocyclothyriella clematidis comb. et gen. nov. Based on Morphology and Phylogeny
Immotthia is a poorly identified genus, and at present, no DNA sequence knowledge can be found to determine its correct phylogenetic placement and evolutionary relationships with different bitunicate fungi. To date, there are solely two species accepted in the genus. During our ongoing analysis research of bambusicolous fungi in southwest China and Thailand, a fungus related… Continue reading
Harenicola maris gen. nov., sp. nov. isolated from the Sea of Japan shallow sediments
A Gram-negative, non-motile bacterium КMM 3653T was isolated from a sediment pattern from the Sea of Japan seashore, Russia. On the foundation of the 16S rRNA gene sequence evaluation the pressure КMM 3653T was positioned inside the household Rhodobacteraceae (class Alphaproteobacteria) forming a definite lineage with the highest gene sequence similarities to the members of the genera… Continue reading
Paucimyces polynucleatus gen. nov, sp. nov., a novel polycentric genus of anaerobic gut fungi from the faeces of a wild blackbuck antelope
The anaerobic gut fungi (AGF; phylum Neocallimastigomycota) reside in the alimentary tracts of herbivores. Multiple novel, yet-uncultured AGF taxa have just lately been recognized in culture-independent range surveys. Here, we report on the isolation and characterization of the first consultant of the RH5 lineage from faecal samples of a wild blackbuck (Indian Antelope, Antilope cervicapra) from Sutton… Continue reading
Phylogenetic relationships among false truffle genera of Paxillaceae- Alpova, Melanogaster, Neoalpova, and Paralpova, gen. nov
A phylogenetic evaluation of nuc rDNA inside transcribed spacer area ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 (ITS), nuc rDNA 28S domains D1-D2 (28S), and the area between conserved domains 6 and 7 of RNA polymerase II second largest subunit (RPB2) from a number of species of Alpova and Melanogaster revealed 4 main clades, proposed right here as distinct genera: Melanogaster, Alpova s. str. containing the sort… Continue reading
