Abstract

The fungi associated with eucalypts (Eucalyptus and Corymbia species) have been widely studied. Starting in the 70’s, many ascomycetes were described mainly in the State of São Paulo, Brazil. As planted forests spread throughout the country, an increasing number of new fungal species were detected resulting in the checklist here shown. Ascomycete species on eucalypts were listed and distributed in class, order, and family with indications of host species, substrate, locality, and geographical distribution among Brazilian states. This checklist includes 236 ascomycetes, belonging to 32 orders, and 61 families associated with 30 species, 5 interspecific hybrids of Eucalyptus and 4 species of Corymbia. Species were distributed among four classes, 32 orders, and 62 families, most of them in Dothideomycetes (28 species in Mycosphaerellales), Sordariomycetes (55 species in Hypocreales, 22 in Diaporthales, 19 in Xylariales), and Eurotiomycetes (10 species in Eurotiales). Most species were found in the states of São Paulo and Minas Gerais, with a total of 101 and 28 species, respectively.
