Bryolpidiaceae Tedersoo fam. nov.

Type genus.

Bryolpidium Tedersoo .

Diagnosis.

Distinguishable from other fungi based on diagnostic nucleotide signatures in SSU V 9 (positions 1706–1719 in S. cerevisiae gtcgagaagttatc; one mismatch allowed), ITS 2 (positions 102–113 in type species agngaacagcgg; one mismatch allowed), and LSU D 1 (positions 169–183 in type species and 167–181 in S. cerevisiae cgcggctgccgaagt; one mismatch allowed). Forms a monophyletic, least inclusive clade in Bryolpidiales, covering sequences EUK 1124873 and EUK 1608195 (Fig. 1 ).

Notes.

Recognized based on eDNA sequences only. Comprises Bryolpidium (gen. nov.).

Figures

Figure 1. Maximum Likelihood SSU- 5.8 S-LSU phylogram indicating placement of novel lineages in the fungal kingdom as highlighted in a coloured shade and red font. Previously described taxonomic clades are collapsed. All branches of Sumavosporidiomycetes and Gelotisporidiomycetes are shortened two-fold. Poorly supported branches with bootstrap values below 95 % / 99 % are indicated in blue. The original tree with bootstrap values and uncollapsed branches is indicated in Suppl. material 1.
