MICROMICETES ASOCIADOS A LA CORTEZA Y MADERA DE PODOCARPUS PARLATOREI (PODOCARPACEAE) EN LA ARGENTINA. VIII. ROSELLINIA (XYLARIACEAE, ASCOMYCOTA).

During biodiversity studies on micromycetes growing on bark and decorticated wood of Podocarpus parlatorei, three species belonging to Rosellinia were collected. Rosellinia franciscae is reported for the first time for South America and Rosellinia starbaeckii is a new record from Argentina. The distribution area of Rosellinia aquila in Argentina is enlarged from a temperate region to a subtropical region in the northwest of the country. Descriptions, illustrations, data on geographical distribution, habitat, and notes on the fungi described are provided. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
