Abstract:

The outermost layer of the oospore wall of the members of Chorales shows various ornamentation patterns, formed due to differential deposition of wall material. These ornamentations are very conservative in nature and used as taxonomic criteria in identifying species and intraspecies taxa in Chorales. In the present investigation, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) was used to study the compound oospore wall ornamentations of twelve species belonging to the genera Chara, Nitella, Lamprothamnium and Lychnothamnus from Yugoslavia, Croatia and Slovenia. The taxonomic identification and systematic position of these taxa are discussed in the light of these characteristic ornamentation patterns revealed by SEM.

Asadi F, Sharifnia F, Salimpour F, Majd A. 2019. Using micro-morphological fruit characters in resolving some of ambiguities in Iranian Acer L. (Sapindaceae) species. Biodiversitas 20: 297-304. Acer L. belongs to the Sapindaceae family consists of 126 species which are distributed in the temperate regions of the northern hemisphere. There are 12 taxa (including Acer monspessulanum with four subspecies and Acer velutinum with two varieties) in Iran. In this study 21 fruit characteristics are partially investigated using Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and Stereomicroscope. According to the obtained results, four types of faveolate, folded, wrinkled and pavement wing surface ornamentations as well as four types of faveolate, folded, verrucous, and wrinkled achene surface ornamentations were observed. Hair of wing margin, achene hair, wing ornamentation, inside angle of wing, and outside angle of wing have taxonomic value. According to fruit morphology, separation of 4 subspecies of A. monspessulanum can be verified. Also varieties of A. velutinum var. velutinum, and A. velutinum var. glabrescens were totally separated due to differences in characteristics such as wing ornamentation, achene ornamentation, hair density of achene, wing length, wing width, the ratio of length to width of wing, total fruit length, total fruit width, the ratio of length to width of fruit, inside angle of wing, outside angle of wing. The results showed that micro-morphological fruit characters of Acer genus are valuable in terms of taxonomy and classification of subspecies level.

Abstract:

Calligraphy or commonly known as khath is one of Islamic art which received great attention from the Muslim community, not least the Muslims in the city of Palangkaraya. In fact, the calligraphy is used as one of the branches that are contested in Musabaqah Tilawatil Qur'an (MTQ), namely Musabaqah Khattil Qur'an (MKQ). In MKQ divided into three (3) groups: group branches manuscript, ornamentations and decor. The ability of the artists of calligraphy in making ornamentations at the time of the race, would have a different strategy with the aim that the resulting work better and can be categorized as the best. Subject (source data) in this study consists of three (3) artists, calligraphy, calligraphic artist group three are ornamentations with a proven record in the race making ornamentations. The results showed that: first, the most supportive factor in implementing strategies make decorations Manuscripts at the time of the race, there are two (2) factors: (a) Factors Psychic (Soul), which strengthen the spiritual self to God; (B) Physical factors (Physical), ie prior to the start of the race and to consume nutritious foods and regular breaks; second, the difficulties encountered in making the calligraphy artist ornamentations at the time of the race was the lack of preparation, drafting difficulties paragraph, and difficulties in the manufacture of trim and motifs.

Abstract:

The genus Acaulospora has undergone many updates since it was first described; however, there are some missing pieces in the phylogenetic relationships among Acaulospora species. The present review aimed to: (i) understand the evolutionary meaning of their different spore wall ornamentations; (ii) define the best molecular marker for phylogenetic inferences, (iii) address some specific issues concerning the polyphyletic nature of Acaulospora lacunosa and Acaulospora scrobiculata, and the inclusion of Kuklospora species; and (iv) update the global geographical distribution of Acaulospora species. As such, the wall ornamentation of previously described Acaulospora species was reviewed and phylogenetic analyses were carried out based on ITS and SSU-ITS-LSU (nrDNA). Moreover, the already available type material of A. sporocarpia was inspected. According to the data obtained, temperate and tropical zones are the richest in Acaulospora species. We also confirmed that A. sporocarpia does not belong to Acaulospora. Furthermore, our phylogeny supported the monophyly of Acaulospora genus, including the Kuklospora species, K. colombiana and K. kentinensis. The nrDNA phylogeny presented the best resolution and revealed the homoplasic nature of many ornamentations in Acaulospora species, pointing out their unfeasible phylogenetic signal. This review reinforces the urgency of more molecular markers, in addition to the nrDNA sequences, for the definition of a multi-locus phylogeny.

Abstract:

Jewelry is main aspect of dressing and Mughal Jewelry is a fascinating theme to explore. Its styles can be traced through the paintings that clearly give accurate information of the style and variety of ornaments that were used during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Jewelry is considered the feminine adornment part but miniature shows the beautiful ornamentation of Mughal emperors also with variation in sizes and design. This article discusses the Mughal male head ornaments and study is focused on the turban ornamentations. As man’s turban is his sacrosanct property and variety of turban ornaments were used by Mughals. This paper is an attempt to understand and examine that how the Mughal turban ornament develops from simple feather to piece of complex jewelry designs and how other culture helps in its development. Why Mughal emperors worn such gemstones in headdress and which techniques were used for its decoration? Is there any specific reason of using such gemstones or just for ornamentations purposes? In the end it concludes that sarpech shapes helps in the development of European aigrette and became a part of European jewelry that later helped in the modification of turban ornaments and Euro-Indian sarpech-aigrette appeared with more delicate style.

Abstract:

We used a scanning electron microscope to observe the eggs of eight species of fishes belonging to the Cyprinodontidae: Aphyosemion geryi, Aphyosemion riggenbachi, Aphyosemion splendopleure, Epiplatys ansorgei, Epiplatys chaperi, Epiplatys fasciolatus, Epiplatys spilargyreus, and Fundulosoma thierryi. The secondary envelope organizes ornamentations on its surface, except for a localized zone at the animal pole that corresponds to the micropylar region. In certain species the micropyle closes on contact with water but can be identified by the absence of surface ornamentation in the area. The eggs of these fishes possess adhesive filaments that seem to be distributed over the whole surface. In the species studied here, the adhesive filaments are almost exclusively perimicropylar. In F. thierryi, the filaments are even present in the vestibule.

Abstract:

In the present study, the morphological characters, root, stem and leaf anatomy, pollen and achene micromorphology of Bellis L. species (Bellis annua L., B. perennis L. and B. sylvestris Cirillo) distributed in Turkey have been investigated on light and scanning electron microscope. Palynological analysis showed that pollen characters were found as small to medium size, isopolar, radially symmetrical, oblate spheroidal and prolate spheroidal, tricolporate and echinate-perforate ornamentation in the three species. Achene characters were found dark brown to yellow in colour, often cylindrical, compressed, with thickened margin, obovate orobovoid shaped, pappus absent and the coat ornamentations are rectangular with short hairs on the surface. As a result of this study, leaf morphology and some pollen characteristics such as pollen size, shape, perforation and distance between spines were demonstrated to be different among the Bellis species.

Abstract:

Background Amphibians are animals strongly dependent on environmental conditions, like temperature, water accessibility, and the trophic state of the reservoirs. Thus, they can be used in modern palaeoenvironmental analysis, reflecting ecological condition of the biotope. Methods To analyse the observed diversity in the temnospondyl Metoposaurus krasiejowensis from Late Triassic deposits in Krasiejów (Opole Voivodeship, Poland), the characteristics of the ornamentation (such as grooves, ridges, tubercules) of 25 clavicles and 13 skulls were observed on macro- and microscales, including the use of a scanning electron microscope for high magnification. The different ornamentation patterns found in these bones have been used for taxonomical and ecological studies of inter- vs. intraspecific variation. Results Two distinct types of ornamentation (fine, regular and sparse, or coarse, irregular and dense) were found, indicating either taxonomical, ecological, individual, or ontogenetic variation, or sexual dimorphism in M. krasiejowensis. Discussion Analogies with modern Anura and Urodela, along to previous studies on temnospondyls amphibians and the geology of the Krasiejów site suggest that the differences found are rather intraspecific and may suggest ecological adaptations. Sexual dimorphism and ontogeny cannot be undoubtedly excluded, but ecological variation between populations of different environments or facultative neoteny (paedomorphism) in part of the population (with types of ornamentations being adaptations to a more aquatic or a more terrestrial lifestyle) are the most plausible explanations.

Abstract:

The man-made periodical patterns executed in textile are especially suitable for the study of plane groups. The diversity of geometric patterns can be described based on the symmetry classification of the two-dimensional symmetry, anti-symmetry and colored symmetry. The symmetrological peculiarities of representative models of hand-woven Chiprovtsi–Pirot (NW Bulgaria and Serbia) carpets have been studied. They share the same elements and ornamental motifs, methods of composition, color combinations, etc. The traditional carpet ornamentations of the Chiprovtsi region are symmetrically organized, with highly stylizing geometric forms. Three different symmetries of the characteristic triangular forms of the ornaments have been recognized: trigonal, hexagonal and tetragonal. The description of their ornamentation revealed motifs as original features, as well as the effects from outside Chiprovtsi-Pirot area. The influence of materials and technology on the resulting pattern symmetry should be carefully emphasized in analysis of the visual art.

Abstract:

The pollen morphology of 10 Allium L. taxa, 6 of which are endemic to Turkey, were investigated in detail by light and scanning electron microscopy. According to LM and SEM, the pollen grains of genera were monad, monosulcate percolate, heteropolar with bilateral symmetry, 25.30 to 53,85 µm long axis (LA) and 17.55 to 36.86 µm short axis (SA), the form was prolate (mean of LA/SA ratio 1.30 to 1.70 and in polar view boat-shaped. Three types of ornamentation were determined. Striate-rugulate-perforate type in Allium longisepalum, A. oreophilum, A. anacoleum, A. microspathum, A.shirnakiense, A. purpureoviride and A. armenum, Rugulate–perforate type in A. pervariense and A. gabardagense and Rugulate–reticulate-perforate type in A. arlgirdense. Sulcus membrane ornamentations were rugulate or psilate. The sulcus extends from the distal to proximal ends in A. anacoleum, A. arlgirdense and A. pervariense. The present study on some Turkish species of Allium showed that several morphological pollen characters may possess taxonomical value.

Abstract:

In this study, the pollen morphology of all Ferula species distributed throughout the country of Turkey was studied with light and scanning electron microscopy for the first time. The aim is to identify the pollen morphological characteristics of 23 Ferula species. The pollen is radially symmetrical, isopolar and tricolporate in all examined species. Pollen grains are prolate and perprolate with the polar axis ranging from 22.28 to 40.47 µm and the equatorial axis from 13.70 to 18.73 µm. Their polar shapes are triangular, triangular to subtriangular and circular to subcircular. Several types of exine ornamentations have been observed on pollen through the use of scanning electron microscopy. The dendrogram constructed by using Average Linkage of the examined data revealed two main groups. It was determined that some pollen characteristics are more useful for classification than others. In particular, P, E, the ratio of P/E (pollen shape) and ornamentation in the polar and equatorial views are the most valuable variables for discrimination the Ferula species.

Abstract:

Woodcarving ornamentation is considered as, a national heritage and can be found in many Malaysian mosques. Woodcarvings are mostly displayed in three different motifs, namely floral, geometry and calligraphy. The application of floral and geometry motifs is to convey an abstract meaning of Islamic teachings to the viewers. However, the calligraphic decorations directly express the messages of Allah almighty or the sayings of the prophets to the congregations. Muslims are the main users of mosques as these are places for prayers as well as other religious and community activities. Therefore, the assessment of users’ opinion about this type of decoration needs to be investigated. This paper aims to evaluate the perception of two groups of mosque users on the calligraphic woodcarving ornamentations from two regions, namely the East Coast and Southwest of Peninsula Malaysia. As Arabic is not the primary language in Malaysia, it would be interesting to find out how much of the calligraphic ornamentation is recognised and understood by the mosque users. The quantitative approach and questionnaire survey were adopted to fulfil the objectives of the study through convenient sampling where 420 questionnaire surveys were distributed at eight selected mosques. A total of 408 respondents amongst users completed and returned the survey forms. The mosques were chosen based on the abundance and diversity of calligraphy woodcarving elements found in the prayer hall. The Mann-Whitney U-test was conducted to find out the differences between the two groups of respondents. Ability of reading and understanding the Arabic scripts, the aesthetic values, the function, appropriate location and finally the desirability of scripts were assessed and compared between the participants of North East and Southwest of Peninsula Malaysia. The results showed that respondents of two areas in Malaysia had different opinions about this traditional sacred ornamentation in mosques. However, there were also similar ideas regarding to the items of variables between two evaluated groups of the study.

Abstract:

Three new species of Russula collected from southern China are proposed based on morphological characters and phylogenetic analysis of internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequences. Russula bubalina sp. nov. is characterized by cinnamon buff to pink pileus with striate margin, interveined and forked lamellae, basidiospores with warty ornamentations not forming reticulum, hymenial cystidia becoming brown in sulphovanillin (SV) and slender terminal cells in suprapellis. R. pseudobubalina sp. nov. is closely related to Russula bubalina in macro-morphology, but it can be recognized by its unforked lamellae, shorter cheilocystidia, bigger basidia and basidiospores with lower ornamentations. Russula subatropurpurea sp. nov. can be recognized by the purplish brown pileus, mild-tasted and white context changing to light purplish red with FeSO4, white and forking lamellae without lamellulae, long hymenial cystidia becoming brown in SV. Both morphological and phylogenetic analysis consistently confirmed the distinct positions of three new species in subg. Heterophyllidia subsection Heterophyllinae.

We provide morphological and molecular characterization of S. pseudoflavogenita and data on its distribution and habitat. Compared to other representatives of the genus Stemonitis, S. pseudoflavogenita and three other species of this genus (S. capillitionodosa, S. flavogenita, and S. sichuanensis) have thickening and widening of the column apex, which makes them a separate morphological group. However, the above three known species have warted and spinulose spore ornamentations, S. pseudoflavogenita shows complex ornamentation consisting of large warts and a few small warts irregularly scattered among the large ones and small indentations on the spore surface. Stemonitis capillitionodosa is a rare myxomycete. We found and retrieved the specimens of Stemonitis capillitionodosa from the Laplandskiy Biosphere Reserve (Murmansk Region, Russia), the first record of this species in Eurasia. We present a scanning electron microscopic study of both S. pseudoflavogenita and S. capillitionodosa. New sequences for SSU rDNA of S. pseudoflavogenita and S. capillitionodosa were obtained.

Full text

Abstract:

Abstract Using decorative elements is an inseparable aspect of Iranian architecture. Architectural ornaments in many buildings, including the minarets, represent the architect’s craftsmanship. As such, the minarets in Isfahan have different types of brickwork ornamentations, such as 90-degree herringbone (Khofteh-Rasteh), basket weave bond (Hasiri), and other complex types. Additionally, the highest minarets are usually constructed in a truncated conical shape to reduce their overall weight and ameliorate their stability against the wind, and lateral forces. Therefore, while the geometric integrity of brickwork patterns should be maintained, all the ornamentations are applied on a shrinking surface area. However, the practical solutions for the construction processes in these structures haven’t been sufficiently investigated. Hence, this study aims to explore the methods of brickwork projection on the minarets and analyse the changes in girih patterns at different height levels. Accordingly, after surveying the selected single minarets in Isfahan, they were modeled using drafting software applications and then analysed.

Full text

Abstract:

AbstractPhotographic identification is a promising marking technique alternative to the toe-clipping, since it is completely harmless, cheap, and it allows long time identification of individuals. Its application to ecological studies is mainly limited by the time consuming to compare pictures within large datasets and the huge variation of ornamentation patterns among different species, which prevent the possibility that a single algorithm can effectively work for more than few species. Scales of Reptiles offer an effective alternative to ornamentations for computer aided identification procedures, since both shape and size of scales are unique to each individual, thus acting as a fingerprint like ornamentation patterns do. We used the Interactive Individual Identification System (I3S) software to assess whether different individuals of two species of European lizards (Podarcis muralis and Lacerta bilineata) can be reliably photographically identified using the pattern of the intersections among pectoral scales as fingerprints. We found that I3S was able to identify different individuals among two samples of 21 individuals for each species independently from the error associated to the ability of the operators in collecting pictures and in digitizing the pattern of intersections among pectoral scales. In a database of 1043 images of P. muralis collected between 2007 and 2008, the software recognized 98% of recaptures within each year, and 99% of the recaptures between years. In addition, 99% and 96% of matches were ranked among the top five, and no more than 5 minutes were needed for digitizing and processing each image. The lepidosis of reptiles is a reliable alternative to ornamentation patterns in photographic identification of reptiles, which can be effectively analysed using the I3S software. This result represents a significant improvement in photographic identification of reptiles since (i) this procedure can be easily extended to most other species of reptiles, (ii) all kind of individuals within a species can be marked (i.e., young, subadults and adults) despite the differences in ornamentation patterns, and (iii) it is the only technique for species, like the western green lizard, which lack a clear ornamentation pattern.

Abstract:

Summary Calcaridorylaimus heynsi n. sp. is the second species of the genus to be described by both morphological and molecular techniques. Morphologically, it can be distinguished from all known species of Calcaridorylaimus by a combination of the following characters: presence of advulval ornamentations, short body (0.90-1.33 mm), slightly anteriorly positioned vulva (V = 47.6 (45.8-49.8)), short odontostyle in females and males (13.1 (11.5-14.5) μm and 13.5 (12.0-18.0) μm, respectively), number of supplements (2 + 9-11), short spicules when measured along the median line (40.4 (38-42) μm) and pore-like vulval opening. It is closest to C. sirgeli, especially in the presence of advulval ornamentations and the pore-like vulva. Phylogenetic analysis based on partial D2-D3 segment of 28S rDNA sequences showed that C. heynsi n. sp. is in a well-supported sister relation with Mesodorylaimus sp. in a clade with C. cignatus and Mesodorylaimus spp. In the Bayesian tree, using partial sequences 18S rDNA, M. japonicus was the closest taxon to the new species.

Abstract:

Styracosaurus albertensis is an iconic centrosaurine horned dinosaur from the Campanian of Alberta, Canada, known for its large spike-like parietal processes. Although described over 100 years ago, subsequent discoveries were rare the last few decades, during which time several new skulls, skeletons, and bonebeds were found. Here we described an immature individual, the smallest known for the species, represented by a complete skull and fragmentary skeleton. Although ~80% maximum size, it possesses a suite of characters associated with immaturity, and is regarded as a subadult. The ornamentation is characterized by a small, recurved, but fused nasal horncore; low, rounded postorbital horncores; and short, triangular, and flat parietal processes. Using this specimen, and additional skulls and bonebed material, the cranial ontogeny of Styracosaurus is described, and compared to Centrosaurus. Styracosaurus shows a similar early ontogeny of the nasal horncore, starting thin, recurved, and unfused, but retains the recurved morphology into large adult size, and never develops the procurved morphology common in Centrosaurus. The postorbital horncores of Styracosaurus are lower and more rounded than those of Centrosaurus throughout ontogeny, and show greater resorption later in ontogeney. The length and thickness of the parietal processes increase drastically through ontogeny, but their position and orientation are static across the size series. Several diagnostic Styracosaurus albertensis specimens now preserve medially orientated P3 spikes, causing issues for the diagnosis of S. ovatus. Variability in parietal ornamentation, either expression of P1 and P2 parietal processes, or other cranial ornamentations, does not appear to correlate with stratigraphy.

Why Swedish contemporary music over the past few decades has been such a provincial affair is a mystery. Most of the pieces receiving critical attention from the media are using neo-Romantic aesthetics – bombastic orchestral sounds more connected to the world of Richard Strauss than Helmut Lachenmann. Hearing this type of music, often characterised by its excesses of art nouveau ornamentations, one may wonder what century one is living in. Where is the contemporary world?

Abstract:

Early Permian megaspores are reported for the first time from the Barakar Formation of Index Seam, Goutham Khani Open Cast Mine, Kothagudem Area, Godavari Graben, Telangana, India. The megaspore assemblage includes three genera and ten species, namely Biharisporites spinosus, Biharisporites sp. A (in Tewari et al., 2009), Biharisporites sp., Jhariatriletes filiformis, Jhariatriletes sp., Singhisporites indica, S. nautiyalii, S. radialis, S. surangei and Singhisporites sp. Besides adding to the existing knowledge of megaspores from the Godavari Graben, the comparison of megaspores from the Goutham Khani Open Cast Mine with those of the other Indian Lower Gondwana basins, namely Damodar, Satpura, Wardha, South Rewa and other areas of the Godavari Graben reveals that majority of these differ in the presence of dense ornamentations on their exosporia. The previous records of megaspores from the late Permian of the Godavari Graben show dense spinate exosporia. Presence of such dense diverse spines on megaspores of this study indicates their early appearance during the Barakar Formation. An analysis of the developmental pattern of the exosporium architecture of Lower Gondwana megaspores in general, indicates that during the early Permian Talchir and Karharbari formations, the megaspores had simple outer layer with usually smooth, granulate, verrucate and sometimes baculate/connate ornamentations whereas, dense spinate exosporia were more common during Barakar and Raniganj formations indicating fresh water aquatic conditions. As such, the spinate megaspores of Kothagudem region also point towards terrestrial aquatic conditions.

Abstract:

Barnacles of the superfamily Coronuloidea are obligate commensals of motile marine animals (Newman & Ross, 1976). Excepting the coronuloid genusChelonibiaLeach, the species included in this superfamily occur strictly upon marine vertebrates, particularly sea turtles and whales (Fricket al., 2011). Chelonophilic (turtle-associated) and cetophilic (whale-associated) coronuloids produce highly-ornamented shells with elaborations that enable these barnacles to grasp the skin of the host (Fricket al., 2010a). These same ornamentations are also useful characters for elucidating taxonomic affinities within the Coronuloidea (Darwin, 1854; Pilsbry, 1916; Ross & Frick, 2007).

AbstractHard structures of helminths have often been used for taxonomic identification but are usually not clearly defined when treated with conventional methods such as ammonium picrate-glycerin for monogeneans and glycerin for nematodes. The present study reports a rapid and simple technique to better resolve the hard parts of selected monogeneans and nematodes using 5–10% alkaline sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS). In comparison with established methods, SDS-treated worms become more transparent. In monogeneans treated with SDS, clear details of the hooks, hook filaments, anchors, bars and the sclerotized copulatory organs could be observed. In SDS-treated nematodes, spicules and ornamentations of the buccal capsules could be clearly seen.

Common and genital setae are of similar length and without ornamentations; these features are new in the genus, although unknown in several species. The Gurupi Biological Reserve where the new species was found is the only integral protection area within the Belém Endemism Area and therefore of crucial importance for conservation of earthworms and other endemic organisms.

We collected more than 40 Sarcoscyphaceae specimens from dead twigs or wood. Based on morphology and phylogeny, these species belong to Cookeina, Nanoscypha, Phillipsia, Pithya, and Sarcoscypha. Among these, we introduce three new species–Nanoscypha aequispora, Pithya villosa, and Sarcoscypha longitudinalis. Phylogenetic analyses based on ITS, LSU, SSU, rpb2, and tef-1α gene regions indicate the relationships of these species within Sarcoscyphaceae. Meanwhile, we propose Ph. gelatinosa as a synonym of Ph. domingensis. One new record of C. sinensis is reported from Thailand.

Abstract:

A group of spore tetrads with variable ornamentations have been recorded during the palynological analysis of subsurface Upper Pali sediments (Early to Middle Triassic), Sohagpur Coalfield, Madhya Pradesh, India. These tetrads are assignable to the form genera-Lundbladispora, Densoisporites, Lapposisporites and Verrucosisporites. It has been observed that these spores were regularly released in unseparated tetrads indicative of failure to complete the normal processes of spore development. This may be due to the anomaly in the temperature responsible for the non-dissolution of the callose wall which holds these spores in the form of tetrads. Occurrence of spore tetrads in certain group of plant community is a positive evidence which suggests that chronic environmental mutagenesis has taken place all over the world during the end Permian ecological crisis.

Geranium (Geraniaceae) is a genus with 325 species worldwide. In present study fruit and seed morphology of 832 individuals from 23 taxa of Geranium were collected from different habitats in Iran. Samples were examined by use of light and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The morphometric study involved 8 quantitative and 11 qualitative characters. Statistical analysis employed PAST software. Principal Component Analysis defined the most variable characters. Features as mericarp shape, mericarp and seed color, hair density, mericarp ornamentations and seed coat pattern were of diagnostic importance. Taxa of two subgenera are clearly separated based on selected fruit and seed characters. Seed macro and micro morphological characters were found useful for the taxonomic delimitations. Despite separation of the subgenera, some sections are mixed.

The genus Cladosporium is cosmopolitan in distribution and can be isolated from various sources including plants as endophytes. A strain of Cladosporium was isolated from living leaves of Zygophyllum coccineum in a desert habitat in Oman. Phylogenetic analysis based on the combined internal transcribed spacer (ITS), partial translation elongation factor 1-alpha (TEF) and partial actin (ACT) sequence data shows that this is a novel species, which groups with Cladosporium sphaerospermum complex. The new species is introduced as Cladosporium omanense and is described, illustrated and compared with other known species in the genus. Cladosporium omanense differs from its phylogenetically related species C. endophyticum by its fast growing colonies, longer macronematous and micronematous conidiophores, thickened-walled conidia with conspicuously protuberant shrivelling surface ornamentations.
