() is a globally distributed fungal genus, traditionally recognized as a group of plant pathogens, with most members known to cause severe plant diseases. However, recent studies have demonstrated that many of these fungi can also colonize plants endophytically, with certain strains capable of promoting plant growth and stimulating the production of secondary metabolites. In this study, 13 strains of were isolated from the stems and leaves of and in Yunnan Province, China. To clarify the taxonomic placement of these strains, morphological examination and multi-gene (ITS, nrLSU, , , and ) phylogenetic analyses were performed. Based on morphological and phylogenetic evidence, four new species are introduced and described here: , , , and . This study expands our understanding of the fungal diversity associated with , provides essential data for the taxonomy of , and serves as a resource for the future development and utilization of endophytes.
（）是一个全球分布的真菌属，传统上被认为是一组植物病原体，其大多数成员已知会引发严重的植物病害。然而，最近的研究表明，这些真菌中的许多也能够内生定殖于植物中，某些菌株能够促进植物生长并刺激次生代谢产物的产生。在本研究中，从中国云南省的[植物名称1]和[植物名称2]的茎和叶中分离出13株（该真菌属）菌株。为了阐明这些菌株的分类地位，进行了形态学检查和多基因（ITS、nrLSU、[基因名称3]、[基因名称4]和[基因名称5]）系统发育分析。基于形态学和系统发育证据，这里引入并描述了四个新物种：[物种名称1]、[物种名称2]、[物种名称3]和[物种名称4]。本研究扩展了我们对与[植物名称1]和[植物名称2]相关的真菌多样性的理解，为（该真菌属）的分类学提供了重要数据，并作为[植物名称1]和[植物名称2]内生菌未来开发和利用的资源。
