Introduction
Citations are listed in chronological
order (von Arx & Müller 1954, Ball 1987,
2007, Tall et al. 2006). The introduction
should briefly review the topic being
investigated and present the objectives of the
study.
Methods
Isolates and morphology
All subheadings will be the same (Table
1). The methods should be adequately
detailed or referenced to other work.
Results
This can have subheadings (Fig. 1).
There should be no reference citations in the
results (Figs 2, 3, 6–8).
Phylogenetic analyses
The results section should only include
the results of this study and no comparison
with other studies. Never use the term etc in
the text. For new species and genera use the
format below.
Colletotrichum pseudotheobromae E.H.C.
McKenzie, sp. nov.
Figs 12–18
MycoBank 510941 (will be hyperlinked).
Etymology – named for its resemblance
to C. theobromae.
A Latin diagnosis must be used for now.
A diagnosis does not need to be a full
description. It can include only how you
would identify the fungus ie, how it differs
from a related species or genus.
Conidiomata formed on poplar twigs in
culture pycnidial, uniloculate, dark brown to
yellow-black or reddish green, immersed in
the host becoming erumpent when mature.
Teleomorph – Glomerella tingliae
(Cooke) Arx, Gen. Fungi Sporul. Cult.: 143
1970. Follow Index Fungorum.
 Physalospora tingliae Cooke,
Grevillea 17: 92 1889.
Known distribution – widespread in
tropical and subtropical regions.
Material examined – Country, Province,
Town, place, on substrate, (date) 15 Jul 2009,

(herbarium, state if holotype or other type) –
ex-type culture in CBC
Notes – The connection
Discussion
This is where you compare your work
with other research and put forward and
discuss your major findings (Table 1). There
must be adequate comparison and references
to previous work.
