Gibellula (Cordycipitaceae: cordycipitaceae: hypocreales) of the British Isles.
Abstract
Genus Giberla (Cordicipipeaceae: hypocrisy) includes pathogenic and endemic species of the spider host. Here we report on the outbreak of new species that infect orb-woven spiders living in subfamily caves Metanae (Tetragnathidae) in the British Isles. New species, Gibellula attenboroughii It has been explained, explained, and its ecology is explained. We conclude that infected spiders exhibit similar behavioral changes to those reported for zombiari. Hidden diversity of the genus Giberla The British Isles have been further emphasized based on Fungarium’s records and literature searches. Two spider pathogens previously assigned to the genus Truvierais currently transferred to the genus Giberlabased on them Granulomanus Following Synasexual Morphs, One Fungi – One Name Initiative: Gibellula albolanata comb. November. and g. Aranicida Comb. November.
