≡ Nectria coronata Penz. & Sacc., Malpighia 11(11-12): 510, 1897.

Specimen examined.

CHINA. Hainan, Lingshui, Diaoluoshan, alt. 1050 m, on rotten twigs of Pinus sp., 15 December 2000, W.Y. Zhuang, X.M. Zhang H90 (HMAS 76855).

Habitat.

On bark of shrubs and trees, sometimes associated with small cankers.

Distribution.

Americas (Costa Rica), Asia (Indonesia, Taiwan), possibly pantropical.

Notes.

The morphology and molecular data indicated that T. coronata is a species complex. Salgado-Salazar et al. (2012) divided it into five taxa on the basis of multigene phylogeny. The Chinese collection matches well the concept of T. coronata sensu stricto by Salgado-Salazar et al. (2012).
