Abstract

Three asexual fungi are described and illustrated from the Brazilian Amazon:Vesiculophora diversiseptata as a new genus and species; and Anapleurothecium clavatum and Podosporium simile as new species. Vesiculophora diversiseptata is characterized by its conidiophores becoming scorpioid after successive subacroauxic extensions and monoblastic conidiogenous cells that produce heteroseptate, brown phragmoconidia; A. clavatum is distinguished by its ellipsoidal to clavate, 3-euseptate, brown conidia; and P. simile is characterized by its synnematous conidiomata with monotretic conidiogenous cells and brown, 3–11-eusepatate, mainly obclavate, verrucose conidia. Additionally, Pleurothecium leptospermi is transferred to Anapleurothecium.
