During surveys of insect pathogenic fungi (IPF) in Thailand, fungi associated with scale insects and plants were found to represent five new species of the genus in . Their macroscopic features resembled both and . Morphological comparisons with the type and known and species and phylogenetic evidence from a multigene dataset support the appointment of a new species of . Moreover, the data also revealed that the type species of , , is nested within , suggesting that is congeneric with . The specimens investigated here differ from other species by phenotypic characters including size and color of stromata. Phylogenetic analyses of combined LSU, , and sequences strongly support the notion that these strains are distinct from known species of , and are proposed as , , , and . gen. nov. is introduced for other species originally assigned to and occurring on scale insects and host plants as epiphytes, accommodating two new combinations of and .
在泰国对昆虫病原真菌（IPF）进行调查期间，发现与介壳虫和植物相关的真菌代表了该属在[具体范围]中的五个新物种。它们的宏观特征与[两个相关属]都相似。与模式种及已知的[两个相关属]物种进行形态学比较，并结合多基因数据集的系统发育证据，支持了一个新的[属名]物种的认定。此外，数据还显示，[属名1]的模式种[种名1]嵌套在[属名2]中，这表明[属名1]与[属名2]是同属的。此处研究的标本在表型特征上与其他[属名]物种不同，包括子座的大小和颜色。对LSU、[其他基因名称1]、[其他基因名称2]和[其他基因名称3]序列进行联合系统发育分析，有力地支持了这些菌株与已知的[属名]物种不同的观点，并将它们命名为[新物种名1]、[新物种名2]、[新物种名3]、[新物种名4]和[新物种名5]。为原本归属于[两个相关属]且作为附生植物出现在介壳虫和寄主植物上的其他物种引入了新属[新属名]，其中包含[两个相关属]的两个新组合。
