Notes.

Berkleasmium crunisia was introduced by Pinnoi et al. (2007). In our phylogenetic analysis, Berkleasmium crunisia ( BCC 17023 ) formed a distinct clade nested within Xenoberkleasmium . Morphologically, this species is characterized by sporodochial, punctiform colonies; macronematous, mononematous, clavate, aseptate, hyaline conidiophores; holoblastic conidiogenous cells; and muriform, oval to ellipsoidal, pale brown conidia ( Pinnoi et al. 2007). These characteristics align with the generic concept of Xenoberkleasmium . Based on the molecular data and morphological characters, we therefore recognize Berkleasmium crunisia as a member of Xenoberkleasmium , proposing a new combination, X. crinisium .
