Abstract: European species of the genus Dendrostoma (Erythrogloeaceae, Diaporthales) occurring on Castanea sativa and Quercus spp. based on freshly collected material are presented. Using a matrix of sequences from ITS, LSU, rpb2 , and tef1 , five species are recognized, and their phylogenetic positions are determined. Four species are added to the 14 described species of Dendrostoma . Dendrostoma atlanticum on Castanea sativa , D. creticum on Quercus coccifera and D. istriacum on Q. ilex are described as new species, Valsa castanea is combined in Dendrostoma , and D. leiphaemia is redescribed and illustrated. A key to the European species of Dendrostoma is provided.<br /> (Walter M. Jaklitsch, Hermann Voglmayr.)
