Chytridiales and Rhizophydiales (Chytridiomycota): new species and new records for Brazil

During a survey of Chytridiomycota in the "Mosaico de Unidade de Conservacao JureiaItatins", Sao Paulo State from August/2016 to October/2017, we identified new records for Brazil: Karlingiomyces marylandicus, Podochytrium chitinophilum and Rhizoclosmatium globosum in the Chytridiales and Angulomyces argentinensis in the Rhizophydiales. In addition, we found and describe a new species, Kappamyces microporosus (Kappamycetaceae, Rhizophydiales). All taxa were analysed morphologically and illustrated. The phylogeny of the Rhizophydiales members was inferred based on combined partial LSU and ITS rDNA regions.
