Abstract A description is provided for Lachnellula suecica, which is generally regarded as a saprobe, with almost all observations of it as fruitbodies erumpent from bark of dead twigs and small branches. However, L. suecica has been associated with damaging cankers on Pinus contorta in Denmark, in some localities resulting in the near destruction of plantations. Information is included on the disease caused by the organism, its transmission, physiological specialization, geographical distribution (Canada (British Columbia, Ontario, Quebec), USA (Alaska, California, Colorado, Idaho, Michigan, Montana, New York, Utah, Oregon, Washington, Wyoming), Republic of Georgia, Kazakhstan, Japan, Russia, Austria, Czech Republic, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Hungary, Iceland, Italy, Republic of Macedonia, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Romania, Russia, Slovakia, Sweden, Switzerland and Ukraine) and hosts (Abies spp., Juniperus communis, Larix spp., Picea spp., Pinus spp. and Tsuga spp.).

Abstract A description is provided for Lachnellula calyciformis. This species is generally regarded as a saprobe, with most observations of it as fruitbodies erumpent from bark of dead twigs and small branches.
