Clonostachys and Sesquicillium are genera in Bionectriaceae, known sexual perithecial ascomata hyphomycetous asexual morphs. In their morph, both share similar morphology conidiophores conidiogenous cell characteristics but differ the development of conidiophores. The members distributed worldwide with majority occurring tropics species commonly reported as soil-borne fungi also endophytes, epiphytes, saprotrophs. During a microfungi survey Xizang, China, six collections fresh healthy Ageratinaadenophora Houttuyniacordata leaves were obtained. taxonomy these was investigated through combination morphological analysis multigene phylogenetic using Maximum likelihood Bayesian inference. newly generated sequences clustered within Sesquicillium, showing hyphomycetes morph. results revealed three new viz, Clonostachyslinzhiensis, C.motuoensis, C.yadongensis. This research sheds light on overlooked fungal diversity expanding biodiversity region. Additionally, two combinations, Sesquicilliumaquaticum S.shanghaiense for C.aquatica C.shanghaiensis, one synonymy, C.viticola C.swietenia established, respectively.
