Abstract

Four ascomycete species with brown 1-septate ascospores with wall ornamentation were identified from palms in Ecuador and Brunei. Asci were long cylindrical, relatively thick-walled, bitunicate with non-fissitunicate dehiscence, and the hamathecium was composed of trabeculae. These fungi are referred to Roussoëlla, and are described and illustrated in this paper, including two new species. A key to accepted species of Roussoëlla is provided.
