Bambusicola D.Q. Dai & K.D. Hyde was introduced and typified with B. massarinia D.Q. Dai & K.D. Hyde (Dai et al. 2012), and was previously placed in Trematosphaeriaceae based on ribosomal LSU gene sequence analysis. The genus is known for its asexual and sexual morphs. Hyde et al. (2013) provided a combined phylogenetic analysis of LSU, SSU, RPB2 and TEF1 data for the families in Dothideomycetes. Species of Bambusicola aggregated into a separate clade from other families in Massarineae, for which Hyde et al. (2013) introduced the new family Bambusicolaceae. We herein introduce a novel Bambusicola species from Thailand.
Type species: Bambusicola massarinia D.Q. Dai & K.D. Hyde, in Dai, Bhat, Liu, Chukeatirote, Zhao & Hyde, Cryptog. Mycol. 33(3): 370 (2012).
Other accepted species: Species Fungorum – search Bambusicola.
