Abstract

species are significant pathogens of various economic plant hosts worldwide. In this study, 45 isolates were obtained from symptomatic walnut leaves of walnut anthracnose in Shaanxi and Sichuan Provinces. In conjunction with morphological evidence and multi-gene phylogenetic analyses of internal transcribed spacer (ITS), actin () and beta-tubulin () sequences support the introduction of three new species, namely , and . Five species of were identified to be of the species complex, of the species complex, , and of the species complex. The three new species are described and illustrated in this paper and compared with taxa in the species complex. The current results improve the understanding of species causing walnut anthracnose in China.
