Pleurodesmospora acaricola sp. nov. and a new record of Pleurodesmospora coccorum (Cordycipitaceae, Ascomycota) in Taiwan

Pleurodesmospora is an anamorphic genus with two known species recorded mainly on chitinous substrates such as insects, mites, spiders, and foliicolous fungi in tropical and subtropical areas. A further fungus with similar morphology of conidiophores and conidiogenous cells was found on a dead mite...
