A. Hernandezgutierrez et Bc. Sutton, IMIMYCES AND LINKOSIA, 2 NEW GENERA SEGREGATED FROM SPORIDESMIUM-SENSU-LATO, AND REDESCRIPTION OF POLYDESMUS, Mycological research, 101, 1997, pp. 201-209
A new description and illustration of Polydesmus elegans, the type spe
cies of Polydesmus, is given. It was formerly considered as congeneric
with Sporidesmium. Two new genera, Imimyces to accommodate Iaqaaticus
, I. bambusae, I. carrii, T. densus. I. heterocateniformis and I. holl
owayensis, and Linkosia to accommodate the single species L. coccothri
nacis, are proposed. A key to species of Imimyces is provided, and a n
ew species and six new combinations are proposed.
