Notes.

Thelonectria yunnanica is only known from the type locality. It is phylogenetically related to T. ostrina ( Figure 1 View Figure 1 ). However, T. ostrina has a perithecial wall 25-40 μm while those of T. yunnanica are thicker 49-71 μm and have asci that are (56 –)67– 86(−98) × 7-12 μm while those of T. yunnanica are larger, 87-120 × 8.2-9.6 μm. Unlike T. yunnanica , T. ostrina does not forming microconidia in culture ( Zeng and Zhuang 2013; Salgado-Salazar et al. 2015).
