An Anthostomella-like taxon was obtained from Pandanus odorifer (Forssk.) Kuntze (Pandanaceae) collected in Krabi Province in Thailand. Morphological data plus phylogenetic analyses of combined ITS LSU RPB2 and β-tubulin sequence data clearly separate this Anthostomella-like taxon from other known genera in Xylariaceae. In this paper we introduce this taxon as a new genus Anthostomelloides in the family Xylariaceae with A. Krabiensis as the type. A detailed morphological description phylogenetic tree photomicrographs of A. Krabiensis keys to Anthostomella-like genera and a comparison of A. Krabiensis with the morphologically similar taxa in Xylariaceae are provided. © TÜBİTAK.
