Dysrhynchisceae Boonmee & K.D. Hyde [as ‘Dysrhynchis- ceae’], in Boonmee et al., Mycosphere 8(10): 1714 (2017).
MycoBank number: MB 628246; Index Fungorum: IF 628246; Facesoffungi number: FoF 06393, 4 species.
Saprobic on dead leaves. Sexual morph: Ascomata superficial, globose to subglobose, dark brown, solitary, aggregated, with central pore, with a protruding synnematous neck, comprised of tightly compacted hyphae, sparse superficial mycelium with hyphopodia, brown to dark brown, with partially immersed mycelia, lacking setae, lacking pseudoparaphyses. Peridium membranous, comprising brown cells of textura angularis. Asci 8-spored, bitunicate, broadly obclavate to ovoid, sessile, apically thickened. Ascospores multi-seriate, conglobate, ellipsoidal, clavate to obpyriform, hyaline to light brown. Asexual morph: Hyphomycetous.
Type: Dysrhynchis Clem.
Notes: Boonmee et al. (2017) introduced Dysrhynchisceae as a new family to accommodate Dysrhynchis. The morphological features of sexual and asexual morphs were described in Boonmee et al. (2017). Additional collections and molecular study are required to further clarify the phylogeny of this family.
