ABSTRACT
Host records are provided for nine ascomycetes and 26 hyphomycetes known to colonize the fructifications of myxomycetes. Among these are 11 taxa (Acremonium bacillisporum, Gliocladium roseum, Hartsfordia sp., Hormiactis alba, Hyalodendron sp., Mariannaea elegans, Melanospora zamiae, Olpitrichum macrosporum, Pleurothecium recurvatum, Verticillium fungicola, and V. lamellicola) not previously reported in the literature as occurring on myxomycetes. In addition, the nomenclature of these myxomyceticolous fungi is reviewed, keys for their identification are provided, and aspects of their ecology and host relationships are discussed.
