Corniculariella brasiliensis , a new species of coelomycetes in the rhizosphere of Caesalpinia echinata (Fabaceae, Caesalpinioideae) in Brazil

Corniculariella brasiliensis sp. nov. is proposed here as a new species of coelomycetes, based on material isolated from the rhizosphere of Caesalpinia echinata . Corniculariella brasiliensis differs from other congeneric species mainly by the shape and size of the conidia. The phylogenetic relationship between Corniculariella and related genera is discussed.
