Abstract Descriptions and illustrations are provided for
seven species of fungi associated with tar-spot-like symptoms on living
Nothofagus leaves in New Zealand. The fungi treated are
Trabutia
nothofagi Syd. and its anamorph
Baeumleria nothofagi (Henn.) Petr.
& Syd., another
Trabutia sp. (which is not formally described as the
only known collection in immature), two unidentified coelomycete fungi, and two
species described as new,
Monostichella nothofagi and
Piggotia
nothofagi. All of the species are known from very few collections, and none
from outside New Zealand.
