| Summary: | From an exhaustive taxonomic survey of Xylariales carried out in the subtropical
montane forest of the Argentine northwest (“Las Yungas”), a first comprehensive
revision of Camillea for the country is presented. Based on a new combination of sexual
and asexual morphology, C. hladkiae and C. romeroae are proposed as new species for
the genus; C. hladkiae is principally distinguished by its conidiogenous structure from
similar species such as C. guzmanii and C. magnifica . On the other hand, C. romeroae is
mainly differentiated from other known species of Camillea by the ornamentation of the
ascospores under SEM. Additionally, the conidiogenous structure of C. coroniformis , C. flosculosa ,
C. hainesii , C. hyalospora and C. signata are described and illustrated for the first
time. Furthermore, four species reports are new for the Southern Cone of South America
( C. coroniformis , C. hainesii , C. hyalospora and C. signata ) and three are a novelty for
Argentine Yunga ( C. flosculosa , C. obularia and C. punctulata ). Finally, full descriptions,
illustrations of all species and a dichotomous key to the identification of Camillea species
for the region are provided |
