Salsuginea was introduced with S. ramicola as the type species on mangrove wood of intertidal Aegiceras sp. collected in Thailand (Hyde 1991a). Zhang et al. 2009 and in Jones et al. (2019) introduced the second species, S. phoenicis to the genus. In this study we introduce a novel species S. rhizophorae from decayed mangrove wood.
Type species: Salsuginea ramicola K.D. Hyde, Bot. Mar. 34(4): 316 (1991).
