ABSTRACT
The history and diagnostic characteristics of the Calosphaeriales, family Calosphaeriaceae (Class Ascomycetes) are reviewed. A combination of features of ascomata and asci permits recognition of eight genera: Calosphaeria, Scoptria, Enchnoa, Jattaea, Romellia, Graphostroma, Togninia, and Pleurostoma. Some of the species are described and illustrated. One new species, Romellia tympanoides, is described; the new combinations Scoptria discreta, Jattaea curvicolla, J. ceanothina, Romellia cornina, and Pleurostoma ootheca are proposed.
