Abstract

A new species, Metapochonia hahajimaensis is proposed. Three isolates were obtained from soil samples collected from Hahajima, Ogasawara Islands, Tokyo, Japan. Using a combination of morphological characteristics and multigene (ITS, SSU, LSU, TEF) phylogenics, the isolates were identified as a Metapochonia species which were previously undescribed. The new species is distinguished from the closely-related M. bulbillosa and M. goniodes or other Metapochonia taxa by conidial size and colonial characteristics.
