Abstract
The genus Elsino? includes phytopathogens causing scab and anthracnose disease on many economically important plants, such as citrus, grapevines, field crops and woody hosts. Current criteria for species recognition and host specificity in Elsino? are unclear due to overlapping morphological characteristics, and the lack of molecular and pathogenicity data. In the present study we revised the taxonomy of Elsino? based on DNA sequence and morphological data derived from 119 isolates, representing 67 host genera from 17 countries, including 41 ex-type cultures. Combined analyses of ITS, LSU, rpb2 and TEF1-α DNA sequence data were used to reconstruct the backbone phylogeny of the genus Elsino?. Based on the single nomenclature for fungi, 26 new combinations are proposed in Elsino? for species that were originally described in Sphaceloma. A total of 13 species are epitypified with notes on their taxonomy and phylogeny. A further eight new species are introduced, leading to a total of 75 Elsino? species supported by molecular data in the present study. For the most part species of Elsino? appear to be host specific, although the majority of the species treated are known only from a few isolates, and further collections and pathogenicity studies will be required to reconfirm this conclusion.
