Abstract A description is provided for Lophiostoma semiliberum, which is considered to be a saprobic fungus, colonizing dead plant tissues. Some information on its dispersal and transmission and conservation status is given, along with details of its geographical distribution (North America (Canada, Ontario), Asia (Japan), Europe (Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Ireland, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Sweden, Switzerland, Ukraine, UK)). L. semiliberum is reported most typically from dead culms of Phragmites australis, and from a range of other grass hosts.

Abstract A description is provided for Lophiostoma macrostomum, which is considered to be a saprobic fungus, colonizing dead plant tissues. Some information on its dispersal and transmission and conservation status is given, along with details of its geographical distribution (Africa (Portugal, Malawi), North America (Canada, Ontario), USA (New Jersey, Oregon, Pennsylvania), South America (Argentina, Venezuela), Asia (China, Hong Kong, Xinjiang, India, Madhya Pradesh, Japan, Malaysia, Pakistan, Singapore), Australasia (Australia, Queensland), Europe (Austria, Belgium, Denmark, France, Georgia, Germany, Greenland, Ireland, Italy, Portugal, Russia, Slovakia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Ukraine, UK)). L. macrostomum as currently circumscribed is a plurivorous species, mainly of wood and bark and less frequently of herbaceous stems.

Abstract A description is provided for Lophiostoma macrostomoides (Thyridaria macrostomoides), which is considered to be a saprobic fungus, colonizing dead bark and lignum tissues. Some information on its dispersal and transmission and conservation status is given, along with details of its geographical distribution (North America (Canada, Ontario), USA (Colorado, Iowa, Kansas, Massachusetts, Michigan, Montana, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Utah, Vermont), Asia (China, Xinjiang, Iran, Pakistan), Europe (Austria, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Lithuania, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Russia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, UK)). L. macrostomoides is reported primarily from dead (decorticated) wood and bark of Populus and Salix species, and recorded more rarely from other woody substrata.

Abstract A description is provided for Helminthosphaeria stuppea, which is apparently saprobic and able to colonize woody parts of a wide range of plants. Some information on its associated organisms and substrata, habitats, dispersal and transmission, and conservation status is given, along with details of its geographical distribution (North America (USA (California, Colorado, Utah and Washington)), Europe (Austria, Czech Republic, Denmark, France and UK)) and hosts (including Tsuga mertensiana). No reports of negative economic impacts have been found.
