Abstract
During a survey of microfungi associated to plant debris in a fragment of Atlantic Rain Forest, da Jiboia, Santa Terezinha, Bahia State, from October/2005 to June/2006, four Vermiculariopsiella species were found in association to the decomposition of leaves, petioles and twigs in this ecosystem. V. immersa (Desm.) Bender and V. cubensis (R.F. Castaneda) Nawawi, Kuthub. & B. Sutton are new records for Serra da Jiboia and State of Bahia, respectively, V. cornuta (V. Rao & Hoog) Nawawi, Kuthub. & B. Sutton and V. falcata Nawawi, Kuthub. & B. Sutton represent new records for South America. Descriptions and illustrations of morphologic characteristics of the four species, information about substrates and geographical distribution as well as a taxonomic key for all known species of Vermiculariopsiella are provided.
