Abstract

During our investigation of palm fungi in Thailand, two interesting taxa from and (Arecaceae) were collected. Based on phylogenetic analyses of a combined dataset of ITS, LSU, , and nucleotide sequences as well as unique morphological characteristics, we introduce the new genus within Xylariales, and a new species . Additionally, in our study, the genus is transferred to the family Cainiaceae based on its brown conidia and molecular phylogenetic evidence.
