Ninety-four species are fungi imperfecti, 26 are ascomycetes with or without conidial states, and 1 species is a basidiomycete. A new genus Exserticlava is described and an illustrated account given of its type species E. vasiformis (≡ Cordana vasiformis Matsushima). New species and varieties described and illustrated are Acrogenospora gigantospora, A, novaezelandiae, Asteridiella knightiae, Conoplea novae-zelandiae, C. tortuosa, Endophragmiella dingleyae, E. hymenochaeticola, E. novae-zelandiae, Monotosporella setosa var. macrospora, Phaeostalagmus novae-zelandiae, Phragmocephala atra var. stenophora, Sporidesmium hyalospermum var. novae-zelandiae, Sporoschismopsis dingleyae, and Xenosporium boivinii. Amphisphaeria incrustans Ellis et Everh. is transferred to Microthelia, and Bactrodestmium longisporum Ellis to Stigmina. New combinations involving names not listed for New Zealand are Exserticlava triseptata (≡ Cordana triseptata Matsushima) and Sporidesmium hyalospermum (≡ Helminthosporium hyalospermum Corda). © 1978 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
