Uncovering cryptic species diversity of Ophiocordyceps (Ophiocordycipitaceae) associated with Coleoptera from Thailand

View Full Paper

Key Points

  • New species of Ophiocordyceps were identified, highlighting previously unrecognized diversity within Coleoptera.
  • Maximum likelihood bootstrap support values strengthened the identification of cryptic species in the dataset.
  • Phylogenetic trees based on LSU, TEF1, RPB1, and RPB2 sequences revealed distinct species relationships.
  • Culture characteristics showed variance among Ophiocordyceps species when grown on different media.
