Description
Summary:Phycodrys denticulatus (Tokida) J.M.Freese & C.E.Lane comb. nov. (Figs 5–7) DESCRIPTION: Thallus parasitic on Phycodrys fimbriata (Kuntze) Kylin. The parasitic thallus is yellow in color, 2 mm in diameter, with several cylindrical irregular branches, branches no longer than 3 mm, emerging from a small hemispherical cushion. The protologue description can be found in Tokida (1934). BASIONYM: Polycoryne denticulata Tokida (1934), Transactions of the Sapporo Natural History Society vol. 13, p. 199, Fig.1. HETEROTYPIC SYNONYM: Asterocolax denticulatus (Tokida) Feldmann & Feldmann TYPE LOCALITY: Robben Island, Sakhalin, Russia (coll. Tokida, 1934) SEQUENCED SPECIMEN: Collected in the Stefansson Sound Boulder Patch in July 2016 at 70˚19.25’ N, 147˚35.1’ W, Barrow, Alaska, USA, deposited NY03684214, NY03384216 (coll. A. Muth, 2016, JF02). ETYMOLOGY: The specific epithet maintains the original nomenclature assigned to the description of the parasite by Tokida (1934). REFERENCES: Tokida 1934; Feldmann & Feldmann 1951 DNA SEQUENCES: MH754750 REMARKS: Identification of the sequenced specimen as ‘ Asterocolax’ denticulatus was based on the morphological description of the parasite from Tokida (1934) and its occurrence on Phycodrys fimbriata. : Published as part of Freese, Jillian M. & Lane, Christopher E., 2021, Reorganizing parasitic Delesseriaceae: taxonomic revision of Asterocolax, pp. 124-136 in Phytotaxa 525 (2) on pages 130-132, DOI: 10.11646/phytotaxa.525.2.3, http://zenodo.org/record/5701834 : {"references": ["Tokida, J.
