SUMMARY
The new species of Coniochaeta, described here, was isolated from soil of a chaparral community in southern California during post-fire and heat-simulation studies. It is distinguished from other Coniochaeta species by its uniquely flattened, flying-saucer-shaped ascospores. Characteristics of the new species are compared with those of 31 other species of Coniochaeta.
