Ophiocordyceps neonutans sp. nov., a new neotropical species from O. nutans complex (ophiocordycipitaceae, ascomycota)

Ophiocordyceps nutans is an entomogenous fungus growing on true bugs (Hemiptera), which has a presumed worldwide distribution. During forays of entomogenous fungi in Brazil, specimens morphologically similar to O. nutans were collected from the Atlantic Forest and Cerrado domains of Neotropical regi...
