Abstract
Abstract Myxotrichum albicans sp. nov. is a slowly-growing fungal species that was isolated from forest litters in northeast of China. The new species is morphologically characterized by its white colonies on CMA, PCA, PDA, and YMA, thallic conidiogenous cells, simple, catenate and hyaline conidia. Phylogenetic analysis based on internal transcribed spacer (ITS) and large subunit (LSU) rDNA sequences also supported the placement of M. albicans as a new species in the genus Myxotrichum. To compare with related species, the optimal pH and temperature for growth were investigated. The differences among Myxotrichum (Oidiodendron) species producing hyaline conidia were discussed.
