Abstract

Fourteen species of stromatic pyrenomycetous fungi (family Xylariaceae) collected in northern Thailand are discussed. Six of these (Biscogniauxia lithocarpi, Camillea malaysiensis var. macrospora, Hypoxylon juventuterubrum, H. pseudoretpela, H. rubroargillaceum, and H. sepipigmentum) are described as taxa new to science. Illustrations of these taxa are provided, and they are compared with similar taxa known from the Western Hemisphere.
