Notes – Cryptovalsa rabenhorstii is similar to Allocryptovalsa cryptovalsoidea and A. polyspora in having polysporous asci (Trouillas et al. 2011). Based on phylogenetic analyses this species clustered with A. cryptovalsoidea and A. polyspora and formed separate clade with Cryptovalsa ampelina (Fig. 1; Clade H). However, the type of Cryptovalsa, C. protracta (Pers.) De Not., lacks sequence data in GenBank. Until more species are collected and sequenced, understanding of the Cryptovalsa will remain incomplete. Therefore, we transfer the species to the genus Allocryptovalsa as A. rabenhorstii.
