TL;DR: Four species of the genus Aigialus are accepted and substrates from which they were recovered include submerged parts of Indian mangroves such as Avicennia alba, Rhizophora mucronata, Sonneratia acida and S. apetala.
Abstract: Four species of the genus Aigialus are accepted: A. parvus, A. grandis, A. mangrovis sp.nov. and A. rhizophorae sp.nov. Substrates from which they were recovered include submerged parts of Indian mangroves such as Avicennia alba, Rhizophora mucronata, Sonneratia acida and S. apetala , and intertidal wood of unidentified hosts in the Arabian Sea.

TL;DR: This treatise deals with all filamentous higher marine fungi described up to the present time, namely, 255 Ascomycotina, 6 Basidiomycotina and 60 anamorphic fungi, and five new combinations in the genera Coronopapillat Halosarpheia, Lindra and Luhvorthia are proposed.
Abstract: This treatise deals with all filamentous higher marine fungi described up to the present time, namely, 255 Ascomycotina, 6 Basidiomycotina and 60 anamorphic fungi. A dichotomous key leads to the species and varieties, mainly by using characters of the propagules. All (except 5) taxa are illustrated by original camera lucida drawings of ascospores, basidiospores and conidia, more than half based on type material, the remainder on authentic specimens. The annotated list of species includes concise characterizations of the propagules. Quintaria gen. nov. (Q. lignatilis comb, nov.) and Corollospora novofusca sp. nov. are described, and five new combinations in the genera Coronopapillat Halosarpheia, Lindra and Luhvorthia are proposed.

TL;DR: Thirty seven species of marine fungi were collected, with Halocypluna villosu the most common fungus, while Aniptodera mungrovii, Antennospora quudricorruita, Halosarpheia marina, Ascomyccte sp.
Abstract: . Driftwood, prop roots and other mangrove samples were collected from the intertidal regions of Brillant and Anse Boileau mangrove stands, in the Seychelles. This material was examined for the presence of higher marine fungi. Forty seven species of marine fungi were collected (37 Ascomycotina, 1 Basidiomycotina, 9 Deuteromycotina), with Halocypluna villosu the most common fungus, while Aniptodera mungrovii, Antennospora quudricorruita, Halosarpheia marina, Ascomyccte sp. (4), and Lulworthiu grandispora were collected frequently. The mycota of the two mangrove stands arc compared. A list of fungi recorded from mangroves is compiled.

TL;DR: Two new genera, 37 new species and 15 new host records are described in the present study and it is demonstrated how marine based substrates, including sand dunes, are fascinating substrates for discovering novel taxa.
Abstract: Our investigation of saprobic marine fungi in India, Thailand, Sweden and the UK yielded 57 species accommodated in 26 families. In the present study, we describe two new genera, 37 new species and 15 new host records. Novel genera, Halocryptosphaeria and Halotestudina are introduced within Diatrypaceae (Xylariales) and Testudinaceae (Pleosporales), respectively. The new species, Amarenographium ammophilicola, Asterodiscus mangrovei, Boeremia maritima, Chaetopsina aurantisalinicola, Chloridium salinicola, Coniochaeta arenariae, C. krabiensis, Diaporthe krabiensis, D. marina, D. salinicola, Dictyosporium marinum, Dyfrolomyces neothailandicus, Fusicolla gigantispora, Halorosellinia krabiensis, H. xylocarpi, Halotestudina muriformis, Hypoxylon aurantium, H. mangrovei, Lasiodiplodia krabiensis, Nectria marina, Nemania phetchaburiensis, N. viridis, Neocamarosporium artemisiae, N. maritimae, Neocosmospora rhizophorae, Nigrograna samueliana, N. rhizophorae, Patellaria apiculatae, Periconia salina, Peroneutypa indica, P. polysporae, Phaeoseptum carolshearerianum, P. manglicola, Rhytidhysteron bruguierae, Rimaconus multiguttulatus, Salsuginea rhizophorae and Xenoacremonium brunneosporum are introduced based on multigene analyses and morphological studies. This study also provides insights into the diversity of fungi from marine based habitats and confirm that they occupy diverse marine niches. We also demonstrate how marine based substrates, including sand dunes, are fascinating substrates for discovering novel taxa. All taxa described herein are based on morphological examination of fresh specimens supported by multigene phylogenies to better integrate taxa into higher taxonomic framework and infer their phylogenetic relationships as well as establish new species.
