4504. Erythromada Huhndorf, A.N. Mill.,<br />
F.A. Fernández & Lodge<br />
This genus was described for a single species<br />
with superficial, clustered ascomata and<br />
scolecosporous ascospores (Huhndorf et al.<br />
2005). LSU sequence data places it near<br />
Rimac<strong>on</strong>us am<strong>on</strong>g a group of unresolved taxa in<br />
the Sordariomycetidae. It will be listed in the<br />
Sordariomycetidae inc. sed. in the next outline.<br />
(2006-10-18)<br />
4646. Etheirophora Kohlm. & Volkm.-Kohlm.<br />
See note 4662 under Hypocreomycetidae. (2007-<br />
06-05)<br />
4454. Eumitria Stirt.<br />
This genus will be treated as a syn<strong>on</strong>ym of<br />
Usnea in the next outline; see note under Usnea<br />
(4473). (2006-07-17)<br />
4647. Eurotiomycetes O.E. Erikss. & Winka<br />
Geiser et al. (2007) used a multigene data set to<br />
infer the phylogeny of this class and provided an<br />
overview of the incredible morphological<br />
diversity in this clade. They c<strong>on</strong>firmed the<br />
m<strong>on</strong>ophyly of the class with two subclasses, i.e.<br />
Chaetothyriomycetidae and Eurotiomycetidae.<br />
The former includes the orders Chaetothyriales,<br />
Pyrenulales, and Verrucariales, while<br />
Eurotiomycetidae includes Coryneliales,<br />
Eurotiales, and Onygenales (including<br />
Arachnomyctales and Ascosphaerales). The<br />
placement of Mycocaliciales in the class is not<br />
str<strong>on</strong>gly supported. (2007-06-05)<br />
4505. Fibrillithecis A. Frisch<br />
This genus was described by Frisch (2006); see<br />
note under Thelotremataceae (4561). (2006-10-<br />
18)<br />
4506. Fremitomyces P.F. Cann<strong>on</strong> & H.C.<br />
Evans<br />
67<br />
This new genus was introduced by Cann<strong>on</strong> &<br />
Evans (1999) for two species from East Africa<br />
and the Seychelles occurring <strong>on</strong> Erythroxylaceae<br />
with initially brightly colored stromata. The<br />
genus will be listed in Phyllachoraceae. (2006-<br />
10-18)<br />
4455. Frigidopyrenia Grube<br />
Grube (2005) described this new genus to<br />
accommodate an arctic lichen that was<br />
previously placed in Collemopsidium or<br />
Pyrenocollema. It, however, differs from these<br />
genera by producing relatively large ascomata<br />
with thick-walled, pigmented hyphae c<strong>on</strong>necting<br />
the ascomatal base with the lichen thallus,<br />
different peridial cells and more cylindrical asci.<br />

4581. Funiliomyces Aptroot<br />
This new genus was described by Aptroot<br />
(2004). In a phylogenetic analysis of ITS rDNA<br />
sequences, the new genus was sister to a clade<br />
including Arecophila K.D. Hyde and a Rosellinia<br />
spp. The genus will be accepted in<br />
Amphisphaeriaceae in the next outline. (2006-<br />
12-20)<br />
4421. Fusoidispora D. Vijaykrishna, R.<br />
Jeew<strong>on</strong> & K.D. Hyde<br />
This new genus was described by Vijaykrishna<br />
et al. (2005) to accommodate a freshwater<br />
fungus with fusoid ascospores with mucilaginous<br />
pads at both apices and l<strong>on</strong>g cylindrical asci with<br />
refractive apical rings. The genus is placed in<br />
Annulatascaceae, which was found to be<br />
polyphyletic (see under Annulatascaceae).<br />
(2006-05-30)<br />
4648. Gallaicolichen Serux. & Lücking<br />
This new genus is introduced for a sterile<br />
foliicolous lichen that cannot be placed<br />
elsewhere (Serusiaux & Lücking 2007). In the<br />
absence of any ascomata or molecular data, the<br />
genus will be placed incertae sedis in the next<br />
outline. (2007-06-05)<br />
