The main characteristic of this fungus is the presence of a clearly higher number of ascospores per ascus (up to six), compared to the other species of the genus: M. cannonballus, M. eutypoides and M. monosporus. M. ibericus is also characterized by the production of a cleistothecial ascomata with a tomentose peridium and, similarly to the other species of the genus, by the absence of anamorph. In addition to the morphological data, the comparative analysis of the ITS-region sequences of M. ibericus and other Monosporascus spp., has supported the creation of the new species. A phylogenetic study based on the sequences of the 18S rDNA, did not allow to assess clearly the taxonomic position of the genus Monosporascus, although the results would indicate this genus might be closer to the Xylariales than to the Sordariales.} }
