Abstract

Two new species of Mycobilimbia are described and compared with other members of the genus: Mycobilimbia australis Kantvilas & Messuti from austral, cool to cold temperate regions, and Mycobilimbia meridionalis Kantvilas from Tasmania. Two additional, superficially similar species that are widespread in the Northern Hemisphere, M. hypnorum (Lib.) Kalb & Hafellner and Bilimbia lobulata (Sommerf.) Hafellner & Coppins, are recorded from Tasmania for the first time.
