Abstract
Three new soil fungi from the Bonin (Ogasawara) Islands, Japan are described:Acremonium macroclavatum, characterized by large clavate guttulate conidia;Cylindrocarpon boninense, characterized by 3–7-septate clavate macroconidia, terminal or intercalary chlamydospores, rarely produced unicellular clavate microconidia; andVerticillium hahajimaense, characterized by conidial heads bearing cylindrical conidia, and catenulate chlamydospores.
