Pestalotiopsis nanjingensis, Qin Yang & He Li, in Li, Yang & Li, Journal of Fungi 7(12, no. 1080): 21 (2021) (FIGURE 4). Index Fungourum number: IF 841481; Facesoffungi number: FOF 11698. For species discretion and illustations refer to Li et al. (2021). Material examined: CHINA, Guangdong Province, Guangzhou City, from leaves of Pyrrosia lingua (Thunb.) Farwell (23°11’13”N 113°17’51”E), 16 August. 2021, Li Hua (ZHKU 22-0090 as dry culture; new host record), living cultures ZHKUCC 22-0161 and ZHKUCC 22-0162. Note: Pestalotiopsis nanjingensis was described from Camellia oleifera leaf spots (Li et al. 2021). In this study, two isolates from healthy Py. lingua leaves were consistent with P. nanjingensis original description based on morphological and DNA sequence data (FIGURE 4). Therefore, we describe P. nanjingensis as a new host record from Py. lingua.
