Conioscyphales is an order of freshwater and terrestrial fungi within the division Ascomycota. It is in the subclass Savoryellomycetidae and the class Sordariomycetes and the subdivision of Pezizomycotina. [2] [3] [4]

Contents

It only contains the monotypic family Conioscyphaceae and the monotypic genus Conioscypha (which has 18 species). [5]

It was formerly in subclass HypocreomycetidaeO.E. Erikss. & Winka 1997, [6] until 2017, when it was placed in subclass SavoryellomycetidaeHongsanan et al. [7] Although still located within class Sordariomycetes. [8] [9] [3]

The Conioscypha clade, based on molecular data, was considered as Ascomycota incertae sedis with Conioscypha and Conioscyphascus considered congeneric (Réblová and Seifert, 2004, [10] [11] Zelski et al., 2015 [12] ) with Conioscypha accepted as the recommend name under the one name protocol (Réblová et al. 2016a). [13]

In 2016, phylogenetic analyses of DNA sequences from nuclear ribosomal and protein-coding loci support the placement of several perithecial ascomycetes and dematiaceous hyphomycetes from freshwater and terrestrial environments in two monophyletic clades closely related to the Savoryellales. [13] [14] In the analysis, clade 45 represents the order Conioscyphales, which was established by Réblová et al. (2016a), [13] with a single family Conioscyphaceae. They also introduced two new species, Conioscypha aquatica and Conioscypha submersa. [2] It is a sister clade to orders Pleurotheciales and Savoryellales . [13]

Description

Conioscypha (the sole genus in the Conioscyphales) is generally characterised by aseptate, dark brown conidia and a unique mode of blastic conidiogenesis, when conidia are born in cyathiform (in the form of a cup, a little widened at the top) to doliiform (shaped like a barrel or cask) blastic conidiogenous cells surrounded by hyaline (transparent), cup-like collarettes with a multilamellar (having (or affecting) multiple lamellae) structure (Shearer & Motta 1973). [15] [16]

Distribution

It has a cosmopolitan distribution across the globe. They have been found in South America, Australia and New Zealand, [6] as well as parts of North America, Europe and Africa. [17]

Sordariomycetes is a class of fungi in the subdivision Pezizomycotina (Ascomycota). It is the second-largest class of Ascomycota, with a worldwide distribution that mostly accommodates terrestrial based taxa, although several can also be found in aquatic habitats. Some are phytopathogens that can cause leaf, stem, and root diseases in a wide variety of hosts, while other genera can cause diseases in arthropods and mammals.

The Trichosphaeriales are an order of sac fungi. It is monotypic, and consists of the single family, the Trichosphaeriaceae. In 2017, the family of Trichosphaeriaceae was placed in Diaporthomycetidae families incertae sedis, which was accepted by Wijayawardene et al. (2018), and Wijayawardene et al. 2020. The order of Trichosphaeriales was also unplaced. They are generally saprobic and pathogenic on plants, commonly isolated from herbivore dung.

Conioscyphascus is a fungal genus in the Sordariomycetes class of the Ascomycota. The relationship of this taxon to other taxa within the class is unknown, and it has not yet been placed with certainty into any order or family. The genus, Conioscyphascus contains the single species Conioscyphascus varius, described as new to science in 2004. Until Conioscyphascus gracilis(Munk) Réblová & Seifert was found later in 2004.
