Helminthosporium Link 1809

Helminthosporium Link, Mag. Ges. Naturf. Freunde Berlin 3 (1): 10 (1809). Notes. Helminthosporium was established by Link (1809) and typified by H. velutinum Link; it is a polyphyletic genus in Massarinaceae of Pleosporales (Chen et al. 2022). Members of Helminthosporium mainly occur as anamorphs. Little is known about the teleomorph of Helminthosporium (Hughes 1953; Subramanian 1987; Tanaka et al. 2015). Herein, we introduce H. puerensis as a new species with a teleomorph from the Arabica coffee plant in Yunnan, China.
