Accepted Trichoderma names in the year 2015

Abstract

A list of 254 names of species and two names of varieties in Trichoderma with name or names against which they are to be protected, following the ICN (Melbourne Code, Art. 14.13), is presented for consideration by the General Committee established by the Congress, which then will refer them to the Nomenclature Committee for Fungi (NCF). This list includes 252 species, one variety and one form. Two new names are proposed: T. neocrassum Samuel (syn. Hypocrea crassa P Chaverri & Samuels), T. patellotropicum Samuels (syn. Hypocrea patella f. tropica Yoshim. Doi). The following new combinations in Trichoderma are proposed: T. brevipes (Mont.) Samuels, T. cerebriforme (Berk.) Samuels, T. latizonatum (Peck) Samuels, and T. poronioideum (A. Möller) Samuels.

The following species are lectotypified: T. americanum (Canham) Jaklitsch & Voglmayr, Gliocladium flavofuscum J.H. Miller, Giddens & A.A. Foster, T. inhamatum Veerkamp & W. Gams, T. konilangbra Samuels, O. Petrini & C.P Kubicek, T. koningii Oudem., T. pezizoides (Berk. & Broome) Jaklitsch & Voglmayr, T. sulphureum (Schwein.) Jaklitsch & Voglmayr and T. virens (J.H. Miller, Giddens & A.A. Foster) Arx. Epitypes are proposed for the following species: T. albocorneum (Yoshim. Doi) Jaklitsch & Voglmayr, T. albofulvum (Berk. & Broome) Jaklitsch & Voglmayr, T. atrogelatinosum (Dingley) Jaklitsch & Voglmayr, T. corneum (Pat.) Jaklitsch & Voglmayr, T. cornu-damae (Pat.) Z.X. Zhu & W.Y. Zhuang, T. flaviconidium (P Chaverri, Druzhinina & Samuels) Jaklitsch & Voglmayr, T. hamatum (Bonord.) Bain., T. hunua (Dingley) Jaklitsch & Voglmayr, T patella (Cooke & Peck) Jaklitsch & Voglmayr, Hypocrea patella f. tropica Yoshim. Doi, T. polysporum (Link) Rifai, T. poronioideum (A. Möller) Samuels T. semiorbis (Berk.) Jaklitsch & Voglmayr, T. sulphureum (Schwein.) Jaklitsch & Voglmayr, and T. tropicosinense (PG. Liu) P.G. Liu, Z.X. Zhu & W.Y. Zhuang.

Introduction

On 30 July 2011, the provision to permit different morphs of the same fungal species to bear separate names was ended at the XX International Botanical Congress (IBC) in Melbourne. This decision was retroactive, but names published before 1 January 2013, which would otherwise have been illegitimate, were ruled to nevertheless be legitimate, as detailed in the International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants (ICN; McNeill et al. 2012). The nearly 150 year-old practice of independently naming the asexual and sexual morphs of non-lichenized pleomorphic ascomycetes and basidiomycetes came to an end. Various procedures were put in place by the ICN to minimize the disruption of names in moving to the one name = one fungus nomenclature.

As regards whether Trichoderma or Hypocrea should be adopted for the genus, the ICN concluded that the choice between two names should be determined not only by priority of publication, but also by consensus among users. In this case Trichoderma Pers. 1794 was published earlier than Hypocrea Fr. 1825 and, pursuant to Art 14.13, a poll taken by the ICTF (International Commission on the Taxonomy of Fungi) International Subcommission on the Taxonomy of Trichoderma and Hypocrea (https://doi.org/www.isth.info) indicated a strong preference to maintain Trichoderma over Hypocrea (Rossman et al. 2013). Having decided to give priority to Trichoderma (with an asexually typified type species) over Hypocrea (with a sexually typified type species), Art. 14.13 further allows for the presentation of a list of names in Trichoderma with name or names against which they are to be protected. Further, Art. 56.3 allows for the preparation of a list of names to be suppressed. The lists are to be presented to the General Committee established by the Congress, which then will refer them to the Nomenclature Committee for Fungi (NCF). Following approval by the appropriate committees, rejected names are to be treated as rejected under Art. 56.1 and may become available for use only by conservation under Art. 14. We have not presented a list of names to be suppressed (Art. 56.3) because any names of Trichoderma or Hypocrea that are not in current use (i.e. have not been cultured and/or their DNA sequenced) can be epitypified and added to the list of names in use.

Subsequent to the Melbourne Congress, it emerged that in order to promote stability of names it was essential that listed names should be protected against unlisted names and not just listed names against which they were protected (Hawksworth 2014). This view was overwhelmingly supported by the 10th International Mycological Congress (IMC10) in Bangkok in 2014, which agreed that the lists be referred to as “Lists of Protected Names” (Redhead et al. 2014). There was little support at the Congress for having any lists of names not to be used, but if lists were prepared the Congress concluded they should be referred to as “Lists of Suppressed Names” to differentiate them from the existing lists of rejected names. Following discussions by the International Commission on the Taxonomy of Fungi (ICTF), formal proposals to modify the ICN to allow these strongly supported changes have now been made (Hawksworth 2015).

We have included in the present list of accepted names all those names in Trichoderma that are ‘in use’ as of the middle of 2015; thus the list includes those names that were ‘in use’ as of 1 January 2013, the date on which the revision to Art. 59 came into effect. With only a few exceptions noted in the current list, a name is considered to be ‘in use’ if it is represented by a culture and/or diagnostic DNA sequences that are deposited in GenBank (https://doi.org/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov) in the belief that reliable identification of a species of Trichoderma can, with rare exceptions, only be achieved through comparison of a diagnostic sequence such as tef1. Jaklitsch & Voglmayr (2015) have published the most complete phylogeny of the genus Trichoderma, based on rbp2.

A list of species of Trichoderma that are not currently in use as defined by our criteria is appended at the end. The identity of most of these species is unknown; many are illegitimate later homonyms, synonyms of other Trichoderma species, or are not species of Trichoderma. Many of the names found in this list can be placed in use by epitypification.

In the following, the nomenclature of the Trichoderma/Hypocrea pairs is examined and the correct or preferential name for each species is presented. At least 400 species have been described as Hypocrea and only a small number of them have been accounted for in modern terms. Many are not actually species of Trichoderma. A number of Hypocrea names that did not have named Trichoderma asexual morphs were transferred into Trichoderma recently (Jaklisch & Voglmayr 2014) and a few more names are added here because of their usage in recent literature.

Recent research has shown that a few reported links between a Trichoderma and a Hypocrea are incorrect. Most notable is the link between T. harzianum and H. lixii (Chaverri & Samuels 2002). Revision of the T. harzianum species complex has revealed that T. harzianum and H. lixii are distinct species and the new combination T. lixii was proposed (Chaverri et al. 2015).

In most cases the asexual and sexual morph names of Trichoderma species with named teleomorphs are based on different type specimens. Consequently, from a nomenclatural point of view they represent distinct and priorable species names. In a nomenclatural sense, the species having named teleomorphs fall into four groups which can be defined as follows:

  1. (I)

    The Trichoderma name is older than the Hypocrea name and thus automatically has priority.

  2. (II)

    Asexual and sexual morph names were proposed simultaneously and using the same epithet. In this case the Trichoderma name has priority in the genus Trichoderma.

  3. (III)

    Asexual and sexual morphs share the same epithet but the Hypocrea name is older than the Trichoderma name. In these cases the older epithet cannot be adopted because it is already occupied in Trichoderma. Under Art. 11.4 of the ICN the next available name is to be adopted (Art. 11.4), and in these cases the next available name is always the Trichoderma name, which is adopted here.

  4. (IV)

    The asexual and sexual morphs have different epithets and the sexual name is the older and should be adopted, but because of common usage it is preferable to maintain the younger Trichoderma name. Accordingly, several names have been proposed for conservation (Samuels 2014) but additional names remain to be conserved as proposed herein.

Proposal for a Protected Generic Name in Hypocreales

Rossman et al. (2013) proposed the protection or suppression of several generic names in Hypocreales. Since then, it has been found necessary to suppress two additional sexually-typified names against Trichoderma.

Trichoderma Pers. 1794 vs. Sarawakus Lloyd 1924 and Aphysiostroma A.T. Martinez & G. Moreno 1986

Trichoderma Pers. 1794, typified by T. viride Pers. 1794, is an asexual morph-typified name and has priority over Sarawakus Lloyd 1924, typified by S. lycogaloides (Berk. & Broome) Lloyd 1924, and Aphysiostroma A.T. Martinez & G. Moreno 1986, typified by A. stercorarium A.T. Martinez & G. Moreno 1986. Since 2008 (Jaklitsch et al. 2008, Jaklitsch 2011) it has been known that the type species of Aphysiostroma clusters within Trichoderma and thus Aphysiostroma should be considered a synonym of Trichoderma. Similarly, Jaklitsch & Voglmayr (2014b) have shown that the type species of Sarawakus clusters in Trichoderma and it too should be considered as a synonym of Trichoderma. Jaklitsch & Voglmayr (2014b) transferred S. lycogaloides and several additional species (see below) into Trichoderma and Jaklitsch & Voglmayr (2015) recombined A. stercorarium in Trichoderma. However, Art 57.2 of ICN stipulates that “an asexual morph-typified name that has priority is not to displace the teleomorph name(s) unless and until a proposal to reject the former under Art. 56.1 or 56.3 or to deal with the latter under Art. 14.1 or 14.13 has been submitted and rejected.” Until now, no such proposal has been made for the protection of Trichoderma over Aphysiostroma or Sarawakus, but as that provision in the ICN is proposed for deletion (Hawksworth 2015) this may not become necessary.

Accepted Trichoderma Names in 2015

Current ICN only permits names to be protected against listed names which otherwise would take precedence. While it is anticipated that the provisions will be changed to permit listed names to be protected against unlisted names (see above), the current mandate of the General Committee and the Nomenclature Committee for Fungi is consider for protection only names where there are competing names. In order to facilitate the work of the Committees, the few names which require protection against competing names are prefixed by an asterisk (*), although most are aready proposed fro conservation. However, we wish all names published prior to 1 January 2013 and accepted here to be included in the eventual list of protected names as soon as that is permitted by the ICN.

The entries are presented here largely in the form that is likely to be adopted for publication in the eventual list of protected names, though for completeness we have not abbreviated the authors of names where there are more than two to “& al.”, omitted “in” before journal titles, and retained the names of authors of papers in which they were published (“in” citations).

Note: Hypocrea atrogelatinosa had no ex-type culture but Joan Dingley sent either a culture or a specimen identified as H. atrogelatinosa to John Webster, who deposited a culture in CBS as CBS 237.63. The specimen from which this culture was isolated cannot be located. It was isolated from basidiomata of a species of Bondarzewia (Russulales, Bondarzewiaceae). No specific substrate is indicated for the type collection of H. atrogelatinosa, but a paratype was collected on a species of Fuscoporia (Hymenochaetales, Hymenochaetaceae). Thus it is reasonable to interpret the species H. atrogelatinosa as growing on basidiomata of Hymenochaetaceae. We interpret the culture derived from the Fuscoporia (CBS 237.63) as being representative of the species and we designate this metabolically inactive culture as epitype of H. atrogelatinosa. Additional soil isolations made in New Zealand (LU498, LU501, LU502, LU503, LU504, LU505) can be identified as this species.

Note: The protologue cites three specimens, viz. no. 5 in part, and no. 557, both from Sri Lanka(Central Province, Feb 1865), and Dolosbagey. Four specimens in K are noted as being ‘type,’ including these three collections and no. 557 bis. The Dolosbagey specimen was described later as H. subrufa Berk. & Cooke (Cooke 1884). The other three specimens are apparently the same species. Chaverri & Samuels (2003) designated the specimen ‘557’ as lectotype and redescribed and illustrated the species. They also described its asexual morph as Trichoderma catoptron and epitypified the species with the recent Sri Lankan specimen from which the type of H. catoptron was derived. Samuels (2014) proposed conservation of T. catoptron over H. catoptron, H. sulfurella, and H. flavovirens. Trichoderma catoptron is known only from South Africa, India and Sri Lanka. It occurs on bark of decaying trees, less frequently on decorticated wood and resupinate basidiomycetes. Chaverri & Samuels (2003) redescribed the species. It is most closely related to T. ceraceum Chaverri & Samuels, T. cinnamomeum Chaverri & Samuels and T. stramineum (Chaverri & Samuels 2003).

Representative culture: G.J.S. 85–245 = CBS 139045.

Representative sequence: tef1: KP109824.

Note: Trichoderma cerebriforme is distinctive because of the stout stipe and convoluted cap of the teleomorph. Similar species having stipitate/capitate stromata include H. brevipes Mont., H. poronioidea Möller, and H. capitata Samuels & Lodge (Samuels & Lodge 1996). H. petersii Berk. & M.A. Curtis and H. peltata (Jungh.) Berk. have large, centrally attached stromata, the stipe being greatly reduced. Doi (1976) reported but did not illustrate a T. cf. longibrachiatum-like asexual morph for T. cerebriforme based on collections made in Peru. Rogerson et al. (1990) reported the species from central Brazil (Roraima). The culture cited above was reported by Doi (in Samuels et al., 1990) from an Indonesian specimen (BPI 881335 ex NY). The sequence cited above was derived from this Indonesian collection; it indicates that T. cerebriforme may be a member of the Viride clade. Whether any of these collections made outside of Australia are actually T. cerebriformis remains to be proven, but the name is being used and for this reason we place it in Trichoderma.

Note: Chaverri & Samuels (2003) redescribed this species based on their study of the types of H. cornea and H. cincta Petch.

Of the cultures linked to sequences, only the one cited above was deposited in CBS; it was derived from ascospores of BPI 745564, identified as H. cornea. Because the stroma of this collection is morphologically consistent with the type of H. cornea, and because of the proximity of Thailand to Tonkin [Vietnam], we designate this Thai collection as epitype of H. cornea.

Note: Gliocladium viride Matr. is recognized to be an older facultative synonym of G. deliquescens Sopp (e.g., Jaklitsch 2011) but the existence of the name Trichoderma viride Pers. 1791 precludes transfer of the epithet to Trichoderma. At the rank of species, the name Gliocladium deliquescens has priority from 1912, while the sanctioned (Fries, Syst. Mycol. 2: 336. 1823) and older epithet ‘lutea’ dates from 1791, but only at an undefined infraspecific rank; at species rank it dates from 1937. However, because G. deliquescens (≡ T. deliquescens) is typified by an asexual morph, while H. lutea is typified by a teleomorph, and both are in current use, Art. 57.2 requires that a proposal to conserve H. lutea be submitted and rejected before adopting the older asexual morph-typified name (Samuels 2014).

Note: Overton et al. (2006) noted that the type specimen of H. corticioides is overmature and in poor shape. They cited two additional collections, respectively from Costa Rica and Venezuela. The Costa Rican specimen was cultured (G.J.S. 99–61) and the culture was sequenced, but the culture was subsequently lost. Gene sequences for this specimen were deposited in GenBank (Jaklitsch & Voglmayr 2014a) and this is the basis of our understanding of the species. Overton et al. (ibid.) also recognized the earlier published H. corticioides Berk. & Broome and introduced the replacement name, H. eucorticioides for Speg.’s species. The type specimen of H. corticioides Berk. & Broome (K!) is Stilbocrea macrostoma (Berk. & M.A. Curtis) Höhnel. Hypocrea corticioides Ellis & Everh. was renamed as H. corticiicola Ellis & Everh. (N. Am. Pyren.: 83. 1892). The type packet of H. corticiicola (NY 00965604) was annotated by Y. Doi (1974) as “…A young form of a species of Protocrea? or a species of Aphyllophorales?” and G. J. Samuels in 2001 annotated the specimen: “… NOT Hypocreopsis, possibly Protocrea. Apparently the same as H. subcarnea Ellis & Everh. 1887.”

Note: Bonorden did not cite a specific specimen in the protologue to V. hamatum, but his illustration (Fig. 117) can easily be interpreted as representing our modern concept of T. hamatum. Bissett (1991) noted the lack of type material and commented on Fig. 117, but he designated a neotype for this species. Under Art. 9.2 of ICN the illustration published with the protologue of Verticillium hamatum has to be adopted as lectotype of this species as it is a part of the “original material” in the sense of the ICN. The culture designated by Bissett (1991) as neotype for T. hamatum (DAOM 167057) should therefore be regarded as epitype of V. hamatum.

Epitypus (hic designatus, MBT 201073): NEW ZEALAND [dry culture] (CBS H 13531).

Ex-epitype culture CBS 238.63.

Representative sequence: tef1: AF401011.

Note: The original gathering of H. hunua was not cultured. Joan Dingley sent a subsequently collected specimen and/or culture (Dingley No. 5) of this species to John Webster, who deposited the culture in CBS (CBS 238.63). A dry culture was made and deposited in CBS (H 13531). We designate the dry culture as epitype. This culture has been sequenced and included in phylogenetic analysis. Thus the name ‘Hypocrea hunua’ is in current use and representative sequences have been deposited in GenBank. However, the specimen from which the culture CBS 238.63 was derived cannot be located (PDD) and is presumed lost. Thus its identity as H. hunua is uncertain. However, the phylogenetic results with Webster/Dingley’s culture of this species (Kullnig-Gradinger et al. 2002) that is deposited in CBS is consistent with the morphology of part of the type that is now deposited in K (as IMI 50433). Sequences under this name are deposited in GenBank and Jaklitsch & Voglmayr (2014) have commented on its phylogenetic position in their list of Trichoderma/ Hypocrea species based on this culture. Thus there is an established taxonomy and literature for H./T. hunua. Stability of this name is served by adopting an epitype as we do here, despite the uncertainty about the provenance of CBS 238.63.

The type of Sphaeria peltata was collected in Indonesia. We do not have cultures from Indonesia, but sequences of Japanese collections are highly similar to those obtained from collections made in the USA, indicating the likelihood of a single species with a wide distribution.

Samuels (2014) proposed conservation of H. pezizoides over the older T. pezizoideum Wallr. Sequences of the representative cultures place this species in the Viride clade of Trichoderma. Sequences deposited in GenBank are diverse and may represent more than one species. The sequenced culture of one of the cited representative cultures cited here was derived from ascospores (specimen THAILAND, BPI 841389) germinating in asci, giving us a high degree of confidence of its identity. However that culture has been lost.

Note: S.J. Hughes (1958: 812) studied the specimens of both S. polysporum and Aleurisma sporulosum (L), placing both species in synonymy with T. sporulosum (ibid.: 820). He wrote the following about the type collection of S. polysporum (S.J. Hughes, hand-written notes deposited in DAOM): “[dots white or cream coloured now squashed on rotten bark]. [looks like Trichoderma candidum (Sacc.) but no curly hyphae seen] [Trichoderma (white) no spirals.]” Because it was sanctioned by Fries, the name polysporum was subsequently given preference over sporulosum. Rifai (Mycol. Pap. 116: 21. 1969) considered Gams C306 to be typical of T. polysporum. Accordingly, we designate this metabolically inactive culture as epitype of Sporotrichum polysporum here. Bissett (1991) distinguished between T. polysporum and H. pachybasioides on the basis of morphology. However, phylogenetic analyses (Lu et al., 2004; Jaklitsch, 2011) have demonstrated that cultures isolated directly from substrate and identifiable as T. polysporum cluster with cultures isolated from ascospores of specimens identifiable as H. pachybasioides, including cultures studied by Bissett. Moreover, T. polysporum appears to represent a species complex that includes T. croceum and T. stellatum, which we include here as synonyms of T. polysporum (Lu et al., 2004; Jaklitsch & Voglmayr, 2015; Bissett unpubl.). Future study focused on this complex may resolve additional species, including some that today we consider as synonyms.

Ex-epitype culture: CBS 130716.

Representative sequences: tef1: JN133576, rpb2: JN133567.

Note: The type locality of S. semiorbis is not known with certainty. Berkeley (1840: 146) described two fungi from the collection of William Jackson Hooker, Lentinus fasciatus and Sphaeria semiorbis. The Lentinus was listed previously as Lentinus villosus by Berkeley in an account of fungi from Van Dieman’s Land but he did not provide the provenance of the collection of S. semiorbis. In the protologue the only collecting information given is “On bark. Hab. unknown.” We assume the original collection to have been made in Australia because the second known collection of this species is reported in Hooker’s Botany of the Antarctic Voyage, although even in this report the only clue to its origin is its collector, Ronald Campbell Gunn, who sent specimens from Tasmania to J.D. Hooker in Kew between 1830 and 1860. Dingley (1956) examined a collection from Tasmania in Kew which she assumed to be the type collection, providing a description of this specimen and referring New Zealand collections she had earlier listed as Hypocrea patella to this species. In her description she described perithecia containing asci with mostly immature spores. However, as Berkeley himself noted in the protologue, the type collection of S. semiorbis is immature, lacking spores and asci. Dingley (1957) later described a Trichoderma asexual morph that was derived from her collections. She subsequently sent material to John Webster in Exeter. It is not known whether she sent a culture or a specimen from which Webster made a culture, but eventually a culture was deposited as CBS 244.63 with provenance ‘Dingley No. 12,’ New Zealand: Mohaka. This culture was redescribed by Bissett (1991) as the asexual morph of H. semiorbis under the number DAOM 67636 = CBS 244.63. Bissett’s description of H. semiorbis is consistent with Dingley’s, and Dingley collections of H. semiorbis (PDD) are consistent with the type collection of S. semiorbis. However, the culture CBS 244.63 cannot be linked to any Hypocrea collection; there is no specimen of H. semiorbis in the Sheffield University Herbarium and none of the collections in PDD can be linked to a specimen or culture that Dingley (Dingley 12) sent to Webster. Thus a question remains as to the link between CBS 244.63, which is the only living culture that links Bissett and Dingley’s concepts of the species and for which DNA sequences have been deposited in GenBank, and H. semiorbis as typified. An epitype for S. semiorbis is needed. There are three Dingley collections of H. semiorbis in her herbarium (PDD), all made from the same place in April and May 1953 (NEW ZEALAND: Hawkes Bay: Upper Mohaka River, Kaimanawa Range, elev. 2000 ft, on Nothofagus fusca, J.M. Dingley s.n. (PDD 12751 (May 1953), PDD 12755 (31 May 1953), PDD 12756 (April 1953) but none of them can be linked to a living culture and thus none of them can serve as an epitype. The material sent to Webster (Dingley 12 = CBS 244.63) is derived from a Dingley collection of H. semiorbis that was made from the Mohaka River on Nothofagus sp., date unknown, and there is a culture in ICMP (ICMP 1693) that is derived from H. semiorbis collected by Dingley (Dingley 584) from the Mohaka River, from Nothofagus sp. in 1958, but the specimen from which this culture was derived cannot be located (PDD, SHU). DNA sequences (tef1, Samuels unpubl.) indicate that CBS 244.63 is the same species as ICMP 1693, but the question as to the identity of teleomorphic H. semiorbis remained open. A recent New Zealand collection from Nothofagus sp. and its culture complete this circle and permit stabilization of the name H. semiorbis by epitypification proposed above. DNA sequences derived from this specimen indicate that it is the same species as ICMP 1693 and CBS 244.63; morphologically the stromata agree well with the type collection of S. semiorbis and the Dingley collections of H. semiorbis in PDD cited above, and the asexual morph matches descriptions of the asexual morph of H. semiorbis in publications from Dingley and Bissett. Although we do not know the substratum of either of the collections of H. semiorbis reported by Berkeley, the type collection of S. semiorbis was possibly collected in Tasmania where Nothofagus is common and thus could have been the substratum of the type collection. All of Dingley’s collections were from Nothofagus. Finally, the recent New Zealand collection was made in the South Island, which has a south temperate climate similar to that of Tasmania. Bissett (1991) and Chaverri et al. (2003a) redescribed the Trichoderma asexual morph of H. semiorbis, the description in the latter reference is based in part on the epitype collection. Chaverri et al. (2003a) redescribed the teleomorph based on the three Dingley collections cited above. Hypocrea semiorbis is common on Nothofagus in New Zealand but is not known outside of Australasia.

Note: The original material of S. sulphurea is given as “*1221. 75. S. sulphurea, L.v.S., rara in cortice insidens, Salem nec Pennsylv.” The specimen PH 01107657 includes two parts. One is labeled presumably in Schweinitz’s’ hand as “Sphaeria sulphurea 1221 — 75 Syn. Fung., Salem” The other is labeled in hand as “Sphaeria sulphurea Schw. α parasitica Schw. 1221— 75 Syn. Fung. Ohio.” The printed label that contains these two specimens gives “Salem, Ohio.” The specimen BPI 801107, from the Collins autograph collection (Shear & Stevens 1917a: 203), is labeled ‘North Carolina, Salem’ and is certainly part of the original material that was studied by Schweinitz. Unfortunately the packet is empty, save for a microscope slide. Schweinitz is known to have collected extensively both in Salem, North Carolina, and in Pennsylvania but he also travelled to Ohio, and he is known to have combined into one packet specimens of what he thought were the same species that were collected in different localities (Shear & Stevens, 1917a, b). We follow the Collins collection label in concluding that the original collection of

S. sulphurea was collected in Salem, North Carolina. The specimen in K is labeled ‘Salem and Bethlehem’ also is an isolectotype. We have not seen Schweinitz material of S. sulphurea from Pennsylvania.

Trichoderma aeruginosum Chevall., Fl. Gén. Env. Paris: 54. 1826; nom. illegit. (Art. 53.1); non T. aeruginosum Link. 1816.

Note: MycoBank gives T. aeruginosum Chevall. as a synonym of T. violaceum Oudem., but without explanation. In the original description of the latter species, no mention is made of T. aeruginosum. The protologue of T. aeruginosum Chevall. does not permit speculation as to the identity of the species.

Note: When it was originally described a verticllium-like Trichoderma asexual morph was described for this species but there was no indication that a culture had been placed in a public collection, although a culture was said to have been kept in the collection of P.-G. Liu at HKAS. There are no sequences deposited in GenBank for this species. Thus we do not include T. corrugatum among the ‘accepted’ species of Trichoderma at this time.

Typus: Ceylon, on dead leaves of Zingiber (K, ex herb. Berk.).

Note: The holotype specimen consists of a piece of stiff paper with two pieces of leaf glued to it. There are scale insects on the leaf pieces. Five 3 mm diam, orange stromata are glued separately to the paper. Each stroma is a hemispherical aggregate comprising 100 or more cespitose, orange perithecia. Ascospores are filiform and remain entire in the ascus. The ascal apex is typical of the Clavicipitaceae.

(≡) Hypocrea fomitopsis P.G. Liu & Yoshim. Doi, Mycosystema 19: 324, 2000.

Typus: [specimen] CHINA: Yunnan: Lijiang, alt. 3200 m, on fruitbody of Fomitopsis pinicola (Sw.) P. Karst. 1993 Nov 15, Z.L. Liu D’93–59 (HKAS 26205, Isotypus TNS-D-8699).

Note: When H. fomitopsis was described, a Trichoderma asexual morph having pachybasium-type branching and hyaline/white conidia was described for the species. However no indication was given that a culture had been deposited in a public collection. The authors did not sequence the culture. An unpublished sequence (18S ribosomal RNA gene, partial sequence; internal transcribed spacer 1, 5.8S ribosomal RNA gene, and internal transcribed spacer 2, complete sequence; and 28S ribosomal RNA gene, partial sequence) was deposited in GenBank (JF905628) by N Fan (College of Life Sciences, Nanjing Agricultural University, No. 1 Weigang Xuanwu District, Nanjing, Jiangsu 210095, China) for a cellulose degrading culture identified as H. fomitopsis. Because there is no indication of how the culture was identified, and no specimen or culture number was indicated with the deposit, and because sequence of the RNA gene cluster are too highly conserved to distinguish Trichoderma species, the identity of this accession is in doubt. We do not include T. fomitopsis among the names of Trichoderma that we accept as being in use at this time.

Typus: “Kisantu, 1907 (H. Vanderyst).”

Ex-type culture. None. Representative culture: None.

Note: Overton et al. (2006) did not locate the type specimen of H. subsulphurea in S, and the protocol did not include illustrations. Overton et al. (2006) identified a recent (2002) Japanese collection as H. subsulphurea, from which they obtained a culture and DNA sequences. Although Overton et al. (2006) reported that the specimen (Overton M 141) had been deposited in BPI, there are no specimens of H. subsulphurea or Hypocrea specimens collected in Japan in 2002 in BPI. Moreover, the culture from the Overton specimen has apparently been lost. Thus T. subsulphureum is only known from DNA sequences of doubtful origin deposited in GenBank (ITS DQ835509, tef1 DQ835492, rpb2 DQ83552).

Note: MycoBank indicates that the illegitimate name T. aeruginosum Cheall. is T. violaceum, but without explanation. Conidia of T. aeruginosum are described as ‘. presque globuleuses, violacé-tendre a l’état isolé, violacé-noirâtre en masse, apiculées à la base, et appliquées par moyen de cette petite proémence à l’entour du sommet de la hyphe, lequel par là semble cinglé d’un anneau colorié.’ This description suggests that the fungus is not a Trichoderma.
