Xenonectriella nephromatis is a species of lichenicolous fungus in the family Nectriaceae. Found in Alaska, it was described as a species new to science in 2020 by Sergio Pérez-Ortega. The type specimen was discovered in the Hoonah–Angoon Census Area in Glacier Bay National Park, where it was growing on a Nephroma lichen. The specific epithet alludes to this host lichen. [1]
The fungus has perithecioid ascocarps, meaning that they are spherical or flask-shaped with a central pore ( ostiole) through which spores are discharged. These dark red ascocarps, which are immersed in the thallus of the host lichen, are up to 0.6 mm in diameter. The asci are eight-spored and measure 120–130 by 8–12 μm. Ascospores are more or less broadly ellipsoid, with some variation in shape, and measure 12–16 by 5–8 μm. [1]
