Notes:Isthmolongispora quadricellularia was first described by Matsush. in 1975 from Japan. Subsequently, this species has been isolated from leaves many times in Taiwan. However, no sequences of I. quadricellularia are available in the public database. In this study, it is the first time that I. quadricellularia has been isolated from the aquatic environment. In addition, we also submitted sequence data for this species to the public database (SSU: MT507103–105; LSU: MT507107–110; ITS: OL412746–74
