Abstract
New hyphomycetes are described in association with leaves of native plants of the family Vochysiaceae, as part of studies of cerrado fungi. Six new species are described belonging to genera Alternaria (A. qualeae sp. nov.), Janetia (J. salvertiae sp. nov.), Passalora (P. qualeae sp. nov.) and Periconiella (P. longispora sp. nov., P. qualeae-grandiflorae sp. nov. and P. campo-grandensis sp. nov.). A key to the species of Periconiella on Qualea is provided.
The authors would like to thank CAPES-Brazilian Ministry of Education for a master's fellowship granted to the first author, Fundação Banco do Brasil for a grant supporting the Cerrado Fungi Project at Universidade de Brasília and Prof. Mariza Sanchez for herbarium support.
