Abstract
Two new species, Acremoniumcapsici and A.guizhouense, isolated from the rhizosphere soil of Capsicumannuum, are described and illustrated. Two-locus DNA sequences based on phylogeny, in combination with the morphology of the asexual morph, were used to characterize these species. In the phylogenetic tree, both new species clustered into a monophyletic clade with strong support, distinct from other previously known species of Acremonium. The new species differed from their allied species in their morphology.
