Table 1. Information about Cheiromycina samples considered in this study.

Figure 1. Habit of Cheiromycina spp. thalli; samples are reported with their collector and DNA extraction numbers. A, C, D, F. C. flabelliformis: A. Z. Palice 21313, L2347; C. Z. Palice 18257, L2253; D. F. Jonsson LK46, L2325; F. Z. Palice 21313, L2344. B, E, G, H. C. petri: B. Z. Palice 17855, L2222; E. Z. Palice 19030, L2327; G, H. T. Tønsberg 42848, L2223 (G is a detail of H). Arrows point to the sporodochia. Bars: A–F = 0.5 mm; H = 1 mm.

Figure 2. Conidia and sporodochia sections of Cheiromycina spp.; samples are reported with their collector and DNA extraction numbers. C, E, F, J, K. Conidia of C. flabelliformis in various developmental stages: C, E, F. Z. Palice 18257, L2253. A, B, D, G. Pale brown conidia of C. petri: A, B. Z. Palice 17855, L2222; D. Z. Palice 19030, L2327; G. T. Tønsberg 43060, L2224. H, I, L. Squash preparation of vertical section of sporodochia: H. C. flabelliformis, Z. Palice 18257, L2253; L. C. flabelliformis, Z. Palice 21313, L2344; and I. C. petri, Z. Palice 19030, L2327. Arrows point to the algal cells scattered among the hyphae in the basal part of the conidioma. Bars: A–E = 10 μm; F–K = 20 μm; L= 50 μm.

Figure 3. Multigene phylogenetic hypothesis of Cheiromycina spp. inferred from the combined data set of nucLSU, nucSSU, and mtSSU markers. Bayesian PP >95% and ML bootstrap support values >70% are reported above branches. Clades are named according to Miadlikowska et al. (Citation2014) and represent a broad selection of taxa within the Lecanoromycetes. The newly sequenced samples (as in ) are reported in bold.
