title: Notes on Dipodascus, Endomyces and Geotrichum with the description of two new species.
abstract: The genus Endomyces is restricted to E. decipiens Reess, characterized by asci formed directly on hyphae and hat-shaped ascospores. The species forming asci from conjugating gametangial cells and having ellipsoidal ascospores are transferred to Dipodascus. A strain isolated from cladodes of Opuntia in Australia is described as Dipodascus australiensis von Arx et Barker and strains isolated from Armillaria mellea are classified as Geotrichum armillariae von Arx.
