Fungi on Juncus roemerianus.: 16.: More new coelomycetes, including Tetranacriella, gen. nov.

Juncus roemerianus is an important component of salt marshes of the United States east coast and the Gulf of Mexico. This plant supports a large biodiversity of decomposers, mostly ascomycetes and coelomycetes, unknown even a few years ago. Koorchaloma galateae sp. nov. is an obligate marine species from the base of culms; Pestalotiopsis juncestris sp. nov. is a facultative marine species and grows in the middle of culms and on involucral leaves; Tetrancriella papillata anam.-gen. et sp. nov. can be classified as a terrestrial but halotolerant species, occurring in the middle and upper part of leaves and on involucral leaves. All three species are known so far only from North Carolina.
