Glomerellaceae Locq. ex Seifert & W. Gams, in Zhang et al. (2007)

Remarks.

The family Glomerellaceae was introduced by Locquin (1984), but was invalidly published. To date, most Glomerellaceae have been recorded to be pathogens ( Maharachchikumbura et al. 2016b). Earlier studies reported that the position of the family Glomerellaceae was not stable ( Zhang et al. 2006; Kirk et al. 2001; Kirk et al. 2008). Réblová et al. (2011) resolved the placement of Glomerellaceae by using phylogenetic analysis of combined ITS, LSU, SSU and RPB2 sequence data. Recently, the family Glomerellaceae was established based on the genus Glomerella ( Zhang et al. 2006), which had been given a synonym under its asexual morph Colletotrichum ( Maharachchikumbura et al. 2015). Recently, Jayawardena et al. (2016) provided notes on currently accepted species of Colletotrichum . In this study, the authors introduce a new endophytic Colletotrichum species and report a known species of endophytic Colletotrichum from gloeosporioides species complex based on morphology and phylogenetic analysis.
