Trechispora xantha C.L. Zhao, in Zong, Liu, Wu & Zhao, Phytotaxa 479(2): 155 (2021).

≡ Brevicellicium xanthum (C.L. Zhao) Z.B. Liu & Yuan Yuan, Frontiers in Microbiology 13(no. 818358): 15 (2022).

Notes: Trechispora xantha was described from southwestern China together with T. daweishanensis, and these two species have a close phylogenetic relationship (Zong et al. 2021). Together with T. daweishanensis, T. xantha was inappropriately transferred to Brevicellicium (Liu et al. 2022). The current phylogeny supports that T. xantha and T. daweishanensis fall within the clade of the new genus Allotrechispora (Fig. 3). Therefore, T. xantha is transferred to Allotrechispora.
