Abstract
A new species and genus of the gramini- colous Clavicipitaceae are described. Neoclaviceps monostipa infects individual florets in the same way as species of genus Claviceps but does not produce sclerotia. In culture it shows dimorphism in produc- tion of a yeast-like microcyclic conidiation (ephelidi- al) phase and a mycelial phase. Phylogenetic analysis of the 26S large subunit rDNA suggests that Neoclav- iceps along with genus Myriogenospora are evolution- arily intermediate between Claviceps and Balansia.
