However, there was a 19 bp difference in the TEF gene fragment between C. menglunense and C. velox, with a similarity of 92.94 %. Morphologically, C. menglunense can be easily distinguished from C. velox by its longer and wider conidia (3.2–5.2 × 3.0–3.8 μm vs. 2.5–4 × 2–2.5 μm). Furthermore, the ramoconidia of C. menglunense are smooth and can have up to 2 septa, whereas the ramoconidia of C. velox are either smooth or finely verrucose, with 0–1 septum. In addition, C. velox was isolated from Bambusa sp. ( Poaceae), while C. menglunense was isolated from Arecaceae plants (Bensch et al. 2012).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/6E3CDD1F9A8E5A8B816D3067BB6C0FBB	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
