Notes: <strong>The</strong> <strong>genus</strong> Davidiella (Davidiellaceae) was recently introduced for teleomorphs of <strong>Cladosporium</strong> s. str. (Braun et al. 2003). <strong>The</strong> <strong>genus</strong> <strong>Cladosporium</strong> is well-established, <strong>and</strong> contains around 772 names (Dugan et al. 2004), while Davidiella presently has 33 names (www.MycoBank.org), of which only around five have acknowledged <strong>Cladosporium</strong> states. Teratosphaeriaceae clade Teratosphaeria Syd. & P. Syd., Ann. Mycol. 10: 39. 1912. Type species: Teratosphaeria fibrillosa Syd. & P. Syd., Ann. Mycol. 10: 40. 1912. Fig. 3. Description: Crous et al. (2004a; figs 182–185). Notes: Although <strong>similar</strong> in morphology, the <strong>genus</strong> Teratosphaeria was separated from Mycosphaerella based on its ascomatal arrangement, <strong>and</strong> periphysate ostioles (Müller & Oehrens 1982). It was later synonymised under Mycosphaerella by Taylor et al. (2003), who showed that the type species clustered within Mycosphaerella based on ITS DNA sequence data. <strong>The</strong> LSU sequence data generated in the present study, has clearly shown that Mycosphaerella is polyphyletic, thus contradicting earlier reports of monophyly by Crous et al. (2000) <strong>and</strong> Goodwin et al. (2001), which were based on ITS data. A re-examination of T. fibrillosa, the type species of Teratosphaeria, revealed several morphological features that characterise the majority of the taxa clustering in the clade, though several characters have been lost in some of the small-spored species. <strong>The</strong>se characters are discussed below: 1. Teratosphaeria fibrillosa has a superficial stroma linking ascomata together, almost appearing like a spider’s web on the leaf surface. Although this feature is not seen in other taxa in this clade, some species, such as M. suberosa Crous, F.A. Ferreira, Alfenas & M.J. Wingf. <strong>and</strong> M. pseudosuberosa Crous & M.J. Wingf. have a superficial stroma, into which the ascomata are inbedded (Crous 1998, Crous et al. 2006b). 2. Ascospores of Teratosphaeria become brown <strong>and</strong> verruculose while still in their asci. This feature is commonly observed in species such as M. jonkershoekensis P.S. van Wyk, Marasas & Knox-Dav., M. alistairii Crous, M. mexicana Crous, M. maxii Crous <strong>and</strong> M. excentricum Crous & Carnegie (Crous 1998, Crous & Groenewald 2006a, b, Crous et al. 2007b). 3. A few ascomata of T. fibrillosa were found to have some pseudoparaphysoidal remnants (cells to distinguish pseudoparaphyses), though they mostly disappear with age. This feature is rather uncommon, though pseudoparaphyses were observed in ascomata of M. eucalypti (Wakef.) Hansf. 4. Ascospores of Teratosphaeria were found to be covered in a mucous sheath, which is commonly observed in other taxa in this clade, such as M. bellula Crous & M.J. Wingf., M. pseudocryptica Crous, M. suberosa, M. pseudosuberosa, M. associata Crous & Carnegie, M. dendritica Crous & Summerell <strong>and</strong> M. fimbriata Crous & Summerell (Crous et al. 2004b, 2006b, 2007b). Re-examination of fresh collections also revealed ascospores of M. cryptica (Cooke) Hansf. <strong>and</strong> M. nubilosa (Cooke) Hansf. to have a weakly definable sheath. Germinating ascospores of species in this clade all exhibit a prominent mucoid sheath. 5. Asci of T. fibrillosa were observed to have a multi-layered endotunica, which, although not common, can be seen in species such as M. excentrica, M. maxii, M. alistairii, M. pseudosuberosa, M. fimbriata (Crous et al. 2006b, 2007b, Crous & Groenewald 2006a, b), <strong>and</strong> also M. nubilosa. 6. Finally, ascomata of T. fibrillosa <strong>and</strong> T. proteae-arboreae P.S. van Wyk, Marasas & Knox-Dav. have well-developed ostiolar periphyses, which are also present in species such as M. suberosa, M. pseudosuberosa, M. maxii <strong>and</strong> T. microspora Joanne E. Taylor & Crous (Crous 1998, Crous et al. 2004a, b, 2006b). Morphologically thus, the Teratosphaeria clade is distinguishable from Mycosphaerella s. str., though these differences are less pronounced in some of the smaller-spored species. Based on these distinct morphological features, as well as its phylogenetic position within the Capnodiales, a new family is herewith proposed to accommodate species of Teratosphaeria: Teratosphaeriaceae Crous & U. Braun, fam. nov. MycoBank MB504464. Ascomata pseudotheciales, superficiales vel immersa, saepe in stromate ex cellulis brunneis pseudoparenchymatibus disposita, globulares, uniloculares, papillata, apice ostiolato, periphysata, saepe cum periphysoidibus; tunica multistratosa, ex cellulis brunneis angularibus composita, strato interiore ex cellulis applanatis hyalinis; saepe cum pseudoparaphysibus subcylindricis, ramosis, septatis, anastomosibus. Asci fasciculati, octospori, bitunicati, saepe cum endotunica multistratosa. Ascosporae ellipsoideae-fusiformes vel obovoideae, 1-septatae, hyalinae, deinde pallide brunneae et verruculosae, saepe mucosae. Ascomata pseudothecial, superficial to immersed, frequently situated in a stroma of brown pseudoparenchymatal cells, globose, unilocular, papillate, ostiolate, canal periphysate, with periphysoids frequently present; wall consisting of several layers of brown textura angularis; inner layer of flattened, hyaline cells. Pseudoparaphyses frequently present, subcylindrical, branched, septate, anastomosing. Asci fasciculate, 8-spored, bitunicate, frequently with multi-layered endotunica. Ascospores ellipsoidfusoid to obovoid, 1-septate, hyaline, but becoming pale brown <strong>and</strong> verruculose, frequently covered in mucoid sheath. Typus: Teratosphaeria Syd. & P. Syd., Ann. Mycol. 10: 39. 1912. Teratosphaeria africana (Crous & M.J. Wingf.) Crous & U. Braun, comb. nov. MycoBank MB504466.
