Mission
Fieldiana is a peer-reviewed monographic series published by the Field Museum of Natural History. Fieldiana focuses on mid¬
length monographs and scientific papers pertaining to collections and research at the Field Museum. With this issue Fieldiana will
appear in two series: Fieldiana Life and Earth Sciences and Fieldiana Anthropology.
Eligibility
Field Museum curators, research associates, and full-time scientific professional staff may submit papers for consideration.
Edited volumes pertaining to Field Museum collections may also be submitted for consideration under a subsidy arrangement. The
submission and peer review of these chaptered volumes should be arranged well in advance with the managing scientific editor and the
appropriate associate editor.
Submission Procedures
Submission procedures are detailed in a separate document called “SUBMISSIONS PROCEDURES” available on the Fieldiana
web site: (http://www.fieldmuseum.org/research_collections/fieldiana/) under the Author’s page. All manuscripts should be submitted
to the managing scientific editor.

Part One. Outline of Ascomycota—2009
Part Two. Notes on Ascomycete Systematics. Nos. 4751-5113

Abstract
Part One presents the current classification that includes all accepted genera and higher taxa above the generic level in
the phylum Ascomycota. It is based on the changes listed in Myconet notes 4751-5113. In the current outline, three
subphyla (Pezizomycotina, Saccharomycotina, Taphrinomycotina) are accepted. Taphrinomycotina includes four classes
{Neolectomycetes, Pneumocystidomycetes, Schizosaccharomyces, Taphrinomycetes). Saccharomycotina consists of one
class and Pezizomycotina includes eleven classes (Arthoniomycetes, Dothideomycetes, Eurotiomycetes, Geoglossomycetes,
Laboulbeniomycetes, Lecanoromycetes, Leotiomycetes, Lichinomycetes, Orbiliomycetes, Pezizomycetes, Sordariomycetes).
Part Two presents 363 notes on the taxonomy and nomenclature of ascomycetes (Ascomycota) at the generic and higher
levels. Numerous changes in higher levels resulted from multi-authored phylogenetic papers resulting from the AFTOL
and Deep Hyphae projects, especially a publication on a revised fungal classification spearheaded by David Hibbett in
2007 and a 2009 volume of Studies in Mycology edited by Conrad Schoch and others dedicated to the phylogeny of the
Dothideomycetes. The new name Alectoria gowardii Lumbsch is proposed for Gowardia arctica P. Halonen, L. Myllys, S.
Velmala & H. Hyvarinen (non Alectoria arctica Elenkin & Savicz).
