Abstract
The relationship of Camillea with other xylariaceous genera, particularly with those applanate species of Hypoxylon which have light-coloured ascospores ornamented with reticulations or ribs is discussed. Camillea broomeiana and C. signata, taxa with spiny ascospores, are proposed as new combinations and placed in Camillea subgen. Jongiella. The following new combinations are made for species usually placed in Hypoxylon: Camillea cycliscus, C. flosculosa, C. fossulata, C. gigaspora, C. hainesii, C. heterostoma, C. heterostoma var. macrospora, C. punctidisca, C. punctulata, C. scriblita, C. sulcata, C. tinctor. The genus Leprieuria is erected to accommodate C. bacillum. Additionally, C. patouillardii C. oligoporus, C. stellata, C. amazonica and C. deceptiva from Peru and Ecuador are described as new and a key to the species of the now considerably enlarged genus is provided. References and descriptions are made to anamorphs of several species, all of which are assigned to Xylocladium. Camillea leprieurii is shown to possess a dimorphic teleomorph with the applanate form previously known as H. melanaspis.
