Multigene phylogeny, phylogenetic network, and morphological characterizations reveal four new arthropod-associated Simplicillium species and their evolutional relationship

Abstract excerpt

Simplicillium species are widely distributed and commonly found on various substrates. A minority of species are associated with arthropods. A spider-associated species Simplicillium araneae , and three insect-associated species, Simplicillium coleopterorum, Simplicillium guizhouense , and Simplicillium larvatum , are proposed as novel species based on a multi-locus phylogenetic analysis and morphological...
