dcterms.abstract | Currently, five species are formally described in <em>Escovopsis</em>, a specialized mycoparasitic genus of fungus gardens of attine ants (Hymenoptera: Formicidae: tribe Attini). Four species were isolated from leaf-cutting ants in Brazil, including <em>Escovopsis moelleri </em>and <em>Escovopsis microspora </em>from nests of <em>Acromyrmex subterraneus molestans</em>, <em>Escovopsis weberi </em>from a nest of <em>Atta </em>sp. and <em>Escovopsis lentecrescens </em>from a nest of <em>Acromyrmex subterraneus subterraneus</em>. The fifth species, <em>Escovopsis aspergilloides </em>was isolated from a nest of the higher attine ant <em>Trachymyrmex ruthae </em>from Trinidad. Here, we describe a new species, <em>Escovopsis trichodermoides </em>isolated from a fungus garden of the lower attine ant <em>Mycocepurus goeldii</em>, which differs from the five other species by highly branched, trichoderma-like conidiophores lacking swollen vesicles, with reduced conidiogenous cells and distinctive conidia morphology. Phylogenetic analyses based on partial <em>tef1</em> gene sequences support the distinctiveness of this species. A portion of the internal transcribed spacers of the nuclear rDNA was sequenced to serve as a DNA barcode. Future molecular and morphological studies in this group of fungi will certainly unravel the taxonomic diversity of <em>Escovopsis </em>associated with fungus-growing ants. | en |
