Abstract Three new species of
Stachybotrys are
described based on specimens found on decaying leaves of
Freycinetia and
Pandanus from Australia, New Zealand, and Hong Kong. Seven other species
are reported from the Pandanaceae, and compared with presently accepted
species. A key and a synoptic table are provided to the 12 species of
Stachybotrys now known from members of the Pandanaceae.
