03C09F12785CFFEAFF32FD57FD5BFB59.taxon	etymology	ETYMOLOGY: The specific epithet refers to the organism’s host and uses “ - cola ” (dweller or inhabitant, always treated as feminine despite gender of genus [Stearn 1992]) to maintain recognition of the parasitic nature of the organism.	en	Freese, Jillian M., Lane, Christopher E.

03C09F12785CFFEAFF32FD57FD5BFB59.taxon	discussion	REMARKS: The original type species of Asterocolax was collected on Erythroglossum sandrianum (Kütz.) Kylin from ‘ rade de Brest’, France, but the herbarium material is missing. A neotype was collected by Maggs and Hommersand (1993) on Erythroglossum laciniatum in Astan, baie de Roscoff, France. The specific epithet for Asterocolax erythroglossi was changed in order to prevent the creation of a tautonym (Turland et al. 2018, Article 23.4).	en	Freese, Jillian M., Lane, Christopher E.

03C09F12785CFFEAFF32FB17FE9DF951.taxon	description	DESCRIPTION: Thallus parasitic on Polyneura latissima (Harvey) Kylin. The parasitic thallus is yellow in color, 3.5 mm in diameter, with numerous irregular conical branches, no longer than 1 mm in length, emerging from a hemispherical base. The carposporophyte is 150 x 190 µm, located on the basal ends of parasite branches, and contains spherical to ovoid carposporangia. Typically, there is only one carposporophyte per branch. Carposporangia are 10 µm in diameter. Male gametophytes and tetrasporangia unknown.	en	Freese, Jillian M., Lane, Christopher E.

03C09F12785CFFE4FF32F91FFCD3F81A.taxon	discussion	REMARKS: Identification of the sequenced specimen as ‘ Asterocolax’ denticulatus was based on the morphological description of the parasite from Tokida (1934) and its occurrence on Phycodrys fimbriata.	en	Freese, Jillian M., Lane, Christopher E.

03C09F127852FFE5FF32F853FDEFFE24.taxon	etymology	ETYMOLOGY: The specific epithet recognizes the initial description of Polycoryne gardneri made by W. A.

03C09F127853FFE5FF32FE32FE09FB80.taxon	discussion	REMARKS: This species was synonymized with Asterocolax gardneri by Wagner (1954). Wagner carried out a detailed study of the morphology of Asterocolax gardneri and found an unknown parasite on Phycodrys setchellii (San Francisco, CA). The morphological similarity between this unknown parasite, the parasite morphology from Dawson’s (1945) description of Polycoryne phycodricola, and her work on A. gardneri (infecting Neinburgia andersoniana) led Wagner to conclude that these parasites were all representatives of Asterocolax gardneri. Phylogenetic analyses show that Polycoryne phycodricola and Asterocolax gardneri (infecting Neinburgia andersoniana) are unique species and the specific epithet “ phycodricola ” has been resurrected for the revised nomenclature of Polycoryne phycodricola.	en	Freese, Jillian M., Lane, Christopher E.
