Notes on ascomycete systematics. Nos. 4408-4750. Myconet 13: 59

to Pleosporales where it will be listed in the next
outline. (2006-10-18)
4639. Diatrypaceae Nitschke
A phylogenetic study based on morphological
characters of the family is presented by Caraman
et al. (2006) who propose to resurrect
Peroneutypa (see under note 4701). (2007-06-

4640. Dictyographa Müll. Arg.
This genus is reduced to synonymy with
Opegrapha by Ertz and Diederich (2007). These
authors confirm previous studies (Matzer 1996)
showing that the two genera agree in most
ascomatal characters, with the sole exception of
spore septation. While Opegrapha has
transversally septate ascospores, the spores in
Dictyographa are muriform. Consequently, the
two genera are merged, which will be followed
in the next outline. (2007-06-05)
4641. Didymella Sacc. ex D. Sacc.
This genus clustered in Pleosporales in the
analyses by Schoch et al. (2007). (2007-06-05)
4501. Didymosphaeriaceae Munk
Kruys et al. (2006) showed that the family that is
currently listed among families with uncertain
position in
Dothideomycetes/Chaetothyriomycetes belongs
to Pleosporales where it will be listed in the next
outline. (2006-10-18)
4642. Diomedella Hertel
Diomedella was reduced to synonymy with
Lecanora by Rambold (1989), which will be
followed in the forthcoming outline. (2007-06-

4452. Diplogelasinospora Cain
See note under Sordariaceae (4469). (2006-07-

4643. Dipodascopsis L.R. Batra & Millner
66
Kurtzman et al. (2007) emendated the diagnosis
of this genus to include Babjevia. (2007-06-05)
4453. Dolichousnea (Y. Ohmura) Articus
This genus will be treated as a synonym of
Usnea in the next outline; see note under Usnea
(4473). (2006-07-17)
4644. Dothideomycetes O.E. Erikss. & Winka
Schoch et al. (2007) presented a new
phylogenetic analysis using a multigene data set
from 96 taxa and discussed the evolution of
characters in this class. Numerous changes are
necessary as the result of this study; these are
listed under the subclass, order, family and
generic names. (2007-06-05)
4645. Dothideomycetidae P.M. Kirk, P.F.
Cannon, J.C, David & J.A. Stalpers ex
Schoch, Spatafora, Crous & Shoemaker
The new subclass in Dothideomycetes (Schoch
et al. 2007) is described for the aparaphysate
Dothideomycetes and includes the orders
Capnodiales, Dothideales, and Myriangiales.
(2007-06-05)
4502. Endothia Fr.
This genus, currently classified as Diaporthales
inc. sed., will be placed in Cryphonectriaceae
following Gryzenhout et al. (2006); see note
under Cryphonectriaceae (4497). (2006-10-18)
4420. Enterographa Fée
The genus is revised by Sparrius (2004). He
accepted 35 species, mainly distributed in the
tropics. (2006-05-30)
4503. Eremodothis Arx
Kruys et al. (2006) showed that this genus
belongs to Sporormiaceae and not
Testudinaceae. Hence it will be placed in the
former in the next outline. (2006-10-18)
