We thank Dink Müller and Arne Rix (BHC) for expert technical assistance. Our special thanks go to Drs. Jack D. Rogers (Washington State University, Pullman, USA) and Yu-Ming Ju (Institute of Botany, Academia Sinica, Taipei, Taiwan), who did not only provide the framework for this study, due to their morphological studies of Hypoxylon, but also selected and supplied several crucial specimens.
