title: A new species of lava lizard (Iguanidae: Tropidurinae: Microlophus) from the Galápagos

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Torres-Carvajal, Omar (2024): A new species of lava lizard (Iguanidae: Tropidurinae: Microlophus) from the Galápagos. Zootaxa 5428 (1): 58-74, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5428.1.2, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.5428.1.2AbstractFollowing Darwin’s visit to the Galápagos in 1835, the species of lava lizards inhabiting the archipelago were scientifically described in the remaining decades of the 19 th century. Notably, only a single species was found on each of the surveyed islands, with different species on most islands. Many species have also expanded their distributions onto surrounding islets. Based on morphological and genetic evidence, I describe herein a new species of lava lizard from the 0.8 km 2 Gardner islet located 8 km east of the southern island of Floreana. The new species is most similar in morphology and coloration to its sister taxon M. grayii from Floreana and nearby Champion, Caldwell, and Enderby islets. Genetic distances, haplotype networks, reciprocal monophyly and differences in scale counts support recognition of specimens from Gardner as a new species. Finally, I discuss a potential biogeographic scenario leading to the evolution of the new species described in this paper.

title: A new species of Microthyrium from Yunnan, China

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Wu, Hai-Xia, Li, Yan-Mei, Ariyawansa, Hiran A., Li, Wen-Jing, Yang, Hui, Hyde, Kevin D. (2014): A new species of Microthyrium from Yunnan, China. Phytotaxa 176 (1): 213-218, DOI: 10.11646/phytotaxa.176.1.21, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.11646/phytotaxa.176.1.21AbstractA new species, Microthyrium propagulensis, collected in Yunnan Province, southwestern China is introduced. The species is typical of Microthyriaceae (Microthyriales) in having superficial thyriothecia with a poorly developed basal layer and a prominent darker central ostiole, bitunicate asci and 1-septate ascospores. It is similar to the generic type, M. microscopicum, but differs in having relatively small ascospores, with two apical cilia, which lie downloads from the ascospore apex at a 45° angle. Phylogenetic analysis based on combined LSU and SSU gene sequence data clearly place this species in Microthyrium, but distinguishes it from Microthyrium microscopicum. This second sequence from a Microthyrium species indicates that the putative sequence of the type of this genus is CBS has been correctly named and supports the distinctiveness of Microthyriales and Microthyriaceae.

title: Cutaneous bacterial microbiome description and new locality record of the poorly known striped caecilian Ichthyophis asplenius Taylor, 1965 in Bruneian Borneo

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article McGrath-Blaser, Sarah E., Grafe, Ulmar, Torres-Sánchez, María, McLeod, David S., Stuart, Bryan L. (2025): Cutaneous bacterial microbiome description and new locality record of the poorly known striped caecilian Ichthyophis asplenius Taylor, 1965 in Bruneian Borneo. Journal of Natural History 59 (1 - 4): 29-43, DOI: 10.1080/00222933.2024.2442749, URL: https://doi.org/10.1080/00222933.2024.2442749ABSTRACTThe Ulu Temburong region in Bruneian Borneo is an exceptionally diverse, old-growth tropical rainforest that harbours unique species, including cryptic amphibians. In May 2017, we collected three caecilian specimens (Amphibia, Gymnophiona, Ichthyophis) from Ulu Temburong National Park, conducting morphological, molecular and cutaneous microbiome analyses. Comparisons of morphology, including CT scans, and mitochondrial DNA have determined the Temburong specimens to be Ichthyophis asplenius, previously not known from Brunei but documented elsewhere on Borneo. The Temburong specimens had continuous lateral body stripes, lacked splenial teeth and had body folds and grooves that did not cross the back on the anterior portion of the body. The mitochondrial DNA matched published sequences of I. asplenius from Sarawak, Malaysia. Our study pioneers the exploration of caecilian cutaneous microbiomes in the wild, marking the inaugural report from the Asian subcontinent. Microbial communities exhibited specimen-specific differences while maintaining uniformity across body locations. Proteobacteria dominated, aligning with previous studies, whereas Firmicutes and Acidobacteriota displayed intriguing variations between caecilian skin and the environment. This work constitutes the second caecilian species documented in Brunei and provides the initial wild caecilian microbiome description from Asia, contributing valuable insights into the biodiversity and microbial ecology of this important region.

title: Morphology and multi-gene phylogeny reveal a new Brunneofusispora species from coffee in Yunnan Province, China

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Liu, Xiangfu, Tibpromma, Saowaluck, Karunarathna, Samantha C., Chethana, K. W. T., Lu, Li, Dai, Dongqin, Elgorban, Abdallah M., Hyde, Kevin D. (2024): Morphology and multi-gene phylogeny reveal a new Brunneofusispora species from coffee in Yunnan Province, China. Phytotaxa 634 (1): 16-30, DOI: 10.11646/phytotaxa.634.1.2, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.11646/phytotaxa.634.1.2AbstractCoffee is one of the most important cash crops native to north-central Africa, and the second most popular beverage ingredient worldwide. Coffee-associated fungal pathogens have been well studied, but few studies have reported saprobes of coffee. In China, Yunnan Province is the main region of coffee plantations and production. To investigate saprobic fungi of coffee plants, dead branches of Coffea with fungal fruiting bodies were collected in Baoshan City, Yunnan Province, China. Multi-gene phylogenetic analyses of SSU, ITS, LSU, RPB2, and TEF1-α sequence data indicated that our collections formed an independent branch within Brunneofusispora and sister to B. sinensis. The new species B. baoshanensis, characterized by uniloculate ascomata with an erumpent long neck, and inequilateral, ends acute, 1-septate, constricted at the septum ascospores with mucilaginous sheath, was identified based on morphology and multi-gene phylogeny. This is the first report of Brunneofusispora species isolated from Coffea in China. A complete description, micrographs, and a phylogenetic tree showing the placement of the new species are provided.
