Open Access Distoceratosporella digitiformis gen. & sp. nov. from Brazil, Alcornia sessilispora gen. & comb. nov., and three new Distoceratosporella combinations

Alcornia is proposed as a new monotypic genus differentiated from Parapericonia by its tretic conidiogenous cells and rhexolytic conidial secession; a new combination Alcornia sessilispora is also proposed, based on P. sessilispora. Distoceratosporella digitiformis is proposed as a new genus and species distinguished from Ceratosporella by its distoseptate conidia. These taxa are described and illustrated. Additionally, the new combinations Distoceratosporella amazonica, D. hernandezii, and D. longiramosa are proposed, all with Ceratosporella basionyms.
