Abstract

During investigations of microfungi occurring on submerged plant material in tropical streams, seven species of Sporoschisma and one species of Sporoschismopsis were recorded. Three are newly described: Sporoschisma parcicuneatum, S. phaeocentri and Sporoschismopsis australiensis. Each of these species is described and illustrated in detail and a synopsis of remaining species of Sporoschismopsis is provided. Generic concepts and connections to teleomorphs are discussed and a key is provided to accepted species in both genera.
