1E068795FFF6FF8AD186C7F3866EDFB7.taxon	description	Description: — Sexual morph unknown. Asexual morph: Hyphae sessile, and irregular, smooth, thin-walled, branched, 0.8 – 3.1 µm in diam. Conidia stalk solitary, transparent to light brown in colour. Conidia round, unicellular, 0 – 1 septate, smooth wall, catenulate, measuring (1.66 –) 2.42 – 4.04 (– 5.34) × (2.47 –) 3.63 – 5.73 (– 6.94) µm (x ̅ = 3.23 × 4.65 μm, n = 50) (FIGURE 2 g – l). Culture characteristics and growth: — After 20 days, on all tested microbial media, the colonies were round, but with irregular margins. On PDA, the center of the colony was slightly raised with aerial hyphae encircling it, and the underside of the culture was dark reddish-brown (FIGURE 2 a, b). On MEA, the colony had radiating striations with fewer aerial hyphae. The underside of the culture was salmon (FIGURE 2 c, d). On OA, the centre of the colony was white with a brown margin (FIGURE 2 e, f). The underside of the culture had an orangish hue, while the edges were brown. The optimal temperature on PDA for growth was 20 ° C, reaching 16.2 mm diam. in 7 days. The growth rate was substantially slower at 5 ° C, 2.7 mm diam. in 7 days. No growth was observed at temperatures above 30 ° C. Notes: — In the phylogenetic trees, Dl. flavoparmeliae was found in a clade that included all previously reported species in this genus (FIGURE 1, 100 % ML, 100 % MP, 1.00 BYPP). Still, Dl. flavoparmeliae can be morphologically distinguished from previously known species. Dlhawksworthia flavoparmeliae has smaller conidia size (1.66 – 5.34 × 2.47 – 6.94 µm) than Dl. lonicerae (14 – 17 × 7 – 8 µm), Dl. alliariae (14 – 17.5 × 6.4 – 8.4 µm), and Dl. clematidicola (17 – 23 × 10 – 13 µm). Conidia of Dl. flavoparmeliae are catenulate, which is lacking in other species. Furthermore, conidia of Dl. flavoparmeliae have 0 – 1 transverse septum, which is less than the other three known species (Hyde et al. 2016, Wanasinghe et al. 2018).	en	Si, Hong-Li, Zheng, Xiao-Xiao, Li, Xin-Chao, Su, Yue-Min, Bose, Tanay, Chang, Run-Lei (2021): Dlhawksworthia flavoparmeliae sp. nov., a new endolichenic fungus in Phaeosphaeriaceae.
