Paecilomyces clematidis Spetik, Eichmeier, Gramaje & Berraf-Tebbal, sp. nov. (Fig. 2) Mycobank number: MB843540 Type: CZECH REPUBLIC, Breclav: Lednice, university garden (48°47’33.3”N, 16°47’55.7”E), isolated from the root of Clematis ‘Snow Queen’ (Ranunculaceae), May 2021, M. Spetik, Holotype: BRNU 677844, ex-type living culture CBS 148466 = MEND-F-0560. Sexual morph: not observed. Asexual morph: Hyphomycetous. Conidiophores hyaline, septate, irregularly branched. Phialides with a cylindrical basal portion tapering to a thin long neck, solitary directly on vegetative hyphae or in groups of two–four per metula. Conidia (2.5–)3.3–3.6(–4.2) × (1.7–)2.2–2.5(–3.2) µm, mean ± SD 3.4 ± 0.4 × 2.4 ± 0.4 µm hyaline, ellipsoidal with flattened base, pyriform, produced in chains. Chlamydospores usually produced laterally or terminally on short side branches of superficial or immersed hyphae, thick-walled, initially smooth later becoming rough and warted, subglobose to globose, dark green, 4.5–6.2 µm diam. Culture characteristics. On PDA after seven days: white to olivaceous, floccose, aerial mycelium, reverse olivaceous, almost no growth at 18 ° C;> 90 mm diam at 25°, 30° and 35 ° C; 42 mm diam at 40 ° C; no growth at 45 ° C. On MEA after seven days: white to olivaceous, floccose, aerial mycelium, reverse olivaceous,> 90 mm diam at 25° and 30 ° C. On OA after seven days: white to olivaceous, floccose, aerial mycelium, reverse olivaceous,> 90 mm diam at 25° and 30 ° C. On CYA after seven days: white to olivaceous, floccose, aerial mycelium, reverse olivaceous,> 90 mm diam at 25° and 30 ° C. Etymology: —refers to the host genus (Clematis). Additional specimens examined: CZECH REPUBLIC, Breclav: Lednice, university garden (48°47’33.4”N, 16°47’55.7”E), isolated from the root of Clematis ‘ Snow Queen’ (Ranunculaceae), May 2021, M. Spetik, living culture MEND-F-0561 .
