Abstract

Astrocystis fimbriata, A. rarissima and A. cepiformis spp. nov. are described and illustrated from dead leaves of Pandanus. Their affinities with related taxa are discussed, especially with Astrocystis species on Palmae and with Rosellinia as interpreted in recent studies. One species has stromata which develop from a mat of superficial hyphae, which has not previously been reported for Astrocystis.
