Abstract
Cryptosporiopsis species are anamorphs of ascomycetes in the genera Pezicula and Neofabraea ( Dermataceae ). These fungi are occasionally isolated from roots of woody plants but may be difficult to identify due to absence of sporulation. Some isolates obtained from roots of ericaceous hosts had previously been linked phylogenetically to Pezicula and, when regrown, revealed conidiomata and conidia typical of Cryptosporiopsis species. Cultural and molecular data allowed for the recognition of the new species, Cryptosporiopsis ericae and C. brunnea. Taxonomic novelties: Cryptosporiopsis ericae Sigler sp. nov.; Cryptosporiopsis brunnea Sigler sp. nov.
