摘要

Diaporthe rostrata sp. nov., collected from Juglans mandshurica in China, is described and illustrated in this paper. The new species is introduced based on its holomorphic morphology plus support from phylogenetic analysis. The sexual and asexual morphs produce rostrate host tissue around the necks on infected branches or twigs and have aseptate alpha conidia, while the sexual morph produces 1-septate as-cospores. The new species is compared with other taxa from Juglans spp.
