Abstract

All 39 marine species described so far from Spartina spp. are listed. Anthostomella torosa sp. nov. is described from culms of Juncus roemerianus in North Carolina, and A. spissitecta sp. nov. is described from leaf sheaths of saltmarsh Spartina alterniflora in the USA (Connecticut, Florida, North Carolina, Rhode Island) and from S. densiflora in Argentina (Buenos Aires). Both species occur close to the rhizome and are classified as obligate marine fungi. The new species are compared with similar taxa, and a table comprises characteristics of the nine known aquatic Anthostomella species.
