Hainan Province, Lingshui County, Diaoluoshan Natural Reserve, on fallen leaves of Hedyosmum orientale, 31 December 2020, Haixia Ma (FCATAS 857).</p> <p>Remarks.</p> <p>Xylaria hedyosmicola closely resembles X. vagans Petch by sharing thread-like or long hair-like stromata bearing closely packed or scattered perithecia with a long sterile filiform apex. Xylaria vagans was originally described and illustrated by Petch (1915) from Sri Lanka. However, based on comparisons of the descriptions and illustrations, there were some differences between the two species. Xylaria hedyosmicola has larger sporiferous part of asci (70-100 µm × 8-12 µm) with tubular to slightly urn-shaped apical apparatus bluing in Melzer’s reagent, brown and larger ascospores with straight (Fig. 2n and p) to slightly sigmoid germ slit (Fig. 2o), with narrowly rounded ends and a slimy sheath on ventral side swollen at both ends to form rounded non-cellular appendages, while X. vagans has a black rhizomorphoid mycelium connecting dead leaves, smaller sporiferous part 68-72 µm × 6 µm and black-brown, cymbiform, smaller ascospores 9-12 × 5-6 µm, with broadly rounded ends and is without apical apparatus, germ slit and sheath or appendages (Petch 1915). Unfortunately, the molecular sequences of X. vagans from Sri Lanka were not available.</p> <p>Xylaria betulicola Hai X. Ma, Lar.N. Vassiljeva &amp; Yu Li is similar to X. hedyosmicola in stromatal morphology, but differs in having larger stromata 3-7 cm, slightly smaller ascospores (11.5)12-14(15) × 5-6 µm, without sheath or appendages (Ma and Li 2018). In the phylogenetic tree, X. hedyosmicola formed a fully supported clade with Xylaria sp. 6 from Hawaiian Islands, USA (Hsieh et al. 2010). Although there are no descriptions on Xylaria sp. 6 in the study of Hsieh et al. (2010), we suspected that it is conspecific with X. hedyosmicola. The sequences comparison showed that there are 98.7%, 99% and 99.9% maximal percentage identities, respectively in ITS, TUB and RPB2 between X. hedyosmicola (FCATAS 856) and Xylaria sp. 6 from USA (JDR 258).</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/1208734854F15006A91568982B5B3556	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

The species is somewhat similar to X. sicula f. major in morphology of stromatal fertile part. However, X. sicula f. major has stromata with long sterile apex, slightly smaller ascospores 9-13(-15) × (3-) 4.5-6 (-7) µm and grows on dead Olea leaves (Ciccarone 1947; Graniti 1959; Fournier 2014). In the phylogenetic tree, X. lindericola formed a fully supported clade with X. sicula f. major (Figure 1).</p> <p>Xylaria hypsipoda Massee is similar to X. lindericola by sharing globose stromata and ascospores dimensions, but differs in having stromata with whitish scales, hairy stipes and urn-shaped, slightly larger apical apparatus 5-8 µm high × 2.9-5 µm broad (Rogers et al. 1987).</p> <p>Xylaria ficicola resembles X. lindericola in stromatal morphology, but differs in having strongly exposed perithecial mounds of stromatal surface, larger ascospores (16-) 17.5-21(-22.7) × 6.5-8.5 µm with conspicuous hyaline noncellular appendage and grows on fallen leaves and petioles of Ficus auriculata (Ma et al. 2011). Xylaria heloidea Penz. &amp; Sacc. from Indonesia is somewhat similar to X. lindericola in stromatal morphology, but the former has obconical, convex stromatal top, larger ascospores (14.5-) 15.5-18(-19) × (5-)5.5-6.5(-7) µm (16.7 × 6.1 µm), with a hyaline sheath swelling at both ends to form non-cellular appendages and grows on fallen fruits, twigs, petioles, and leaves of various plants (Ju et al. 2018).</p> <p>Xylaria comosa (Mont.) Fr. and X. clusiae K.F. Rodrigues, J.D. Rogers &amp; Samuels are also somewhat similar to X. lindericola in stromatal morphology. However, X. comosa has larger ascospores (21)-26-40 × 7-11 µm and larger apical ring 10.5 µm high × 7.5 µm broad (Dennis 1956) and X. clusiae has smaller stromata 1-3.5 cm, ascospores broadly ovoida1 to nearly globose (11.6-)12.8-16.7(-18) × 8-15 µm, with colorless appendage at one end (Samuels and Rogerson 1990).</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/8273E502A2D05CBFBBDA8B1CA1211B59	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

However, X. phyllocharis has fully immersed perithecia, the fertile part with peg-like structures and smaller perithecia 0.2-0.3 mm diam (San Martín and Rogers 1989; Fournier et al. 2020). Xylaria polysporicola is similar to Xylaria sp. (80082005) from Taiwan in stromatal morphology, but the latter has slightly smaller stroma (11-14 mm total length × 1 mm diam. vs. 10-40 mm total length × 0.5-1.6 mm diam.), hard texture, slightly larger ascospores 13.5-16.5 × 5-6 µm, with narrowly rounded ends (Ju and Rogers 1999). Xylaria phyllophila Ces. somewhat resembles X. polysporicola in stromatal morphology, but the former has larger ascospores 20 × 10 µm (Cooke 1883).</p> <p>Xylaria polysporicola is somewhat similar to X. amphithele F. San Martín &amp; J.D. Rogers in shape and size of apical apparatus and ascospores. However, X. amphithele has globose to conical stromata with 3-4 to 20 naked perithecia (San Martín and Rogers 1989). In the phylogenetic tree, X. polysporicola formed a lineage close to X. amphithele and X. ficicola, but is distant from X. phyllocharis.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/697BC6F2DC695FDCBDE5B67B0EAB0FAC	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
