Abstract Thirty-eight species of micro-fungi are
described as newly recorded in New Zealand. These fungi are mainly
found in association with a specific exotic host, Quercus ilex,
or the hitherto uninvestigated ecological group of aero-aquatic fungi.
Six are described as new: Bactrodesmium nothofagi, Dactylaria
leptospermi, Pleurothecium leptospermi, Polyscytalum
ciliatum, Pseudoclathrosphaerina spiralis, and Zanclospora
ureweri. An existing invalid name in the literature, Pseudaegerita
foliicola, is provided with a validating description. Keys are
provided to the genera Pseudaegerita, Thozetella, and
aero-aquatic fungi with helicoid, non-wettable or air-trapping
propagules.
Keywords anamorph; mitosporic; hyphomycete;
aero-aquatic fungi
