Lembosia mimusopis sp. nov. from Thailand

novel species Lembosia mimusopis is introduced with evidence from morpho-molecular characterization. It was collected from the leaves of Mimusops elengi in Chiang Rai Province, Thailand. The new species is unique in having a mucilaginous sheath surrounding its immature ascospores. LSU sequence analyses phylogenetically support separation of this species from other Lembosia species.
