Abstract

The new lichenicolous hyphomycete, Monodictys epilepraria, is described from thalli of several Lepraria species. It is known from the Czech Republic, Great Britain, Lithuania, Poland, Spain and Sweden, and appears to be widespread, but probably much overlooked. The new species is characterized by relatively small, brown, muriform, smooth-walled conidia developing on decolourized patches of the host.
