New mycoparasitic species in the genera and . (: ), with sporothrix-like asexual morphs, from Thailand.

Four new species of the genus are described from Thailand. They were found as mycoparasites on: infecting flies () for ; ants () for ; and leafhoppers () for and . A new genus, with two species: (type species), parasitic on infecting cockroaches, and , found on a spider egg sac, are also described. These fungi share a common feature which is a sporothrix-like asexual morph. Based on our molecular data, is shown to be affiliated to the genus , and thus a new combination . is proposed. , and formed the species complex found on ant-pathogenic from different continents. species are distinguished from spp. based on the presence of fusoid macroconidia in culture and a red pigment diffused in the medium, resembling to and . The molecular phylogenetic analyses also confirmed its generic status. The host/substrates associated with the genera within were mapped onto the phylogeny to demonstrate that mycoparasitism also evolved independently multiple times in this family.
