Notes Ellisembia brachypus was firstly reported as Sporidesmium branchypus in Shiwaliks ( Prasher and Singh 2014 ) and previously collected on dead branches of Moringa aoleifera Lam. in Kerela and Rajasthan ( Bilgrami et al. 1991 , Jamaludeen et al. 2004 ). Later, it was found in Yunnan, China ( Luo et al. 2019 ).
