KEYWORDS
ABSTRACT
Palm trees are critical substrates for a diverse array of microfungi, with new
species frequently described from these hosts. However, systematic surveys of palm-associated
microfungi remain limited, particularly in tropical South America. In a study of
microfungi colonizing decomposing rachises and leaflets of Acrocomia intumescens and
Attalea oleifera, two novel species, Dictyocheirospora acrocomiae (Dictyosporiaceae) and
Melanographium sinuosum, are proposed based on distinct morphological characteristics.
Additionally, two rarely reported species, Cheiromyceopsis echinulata and Phragmospathula
brachyspathulata, are documented and illustrated. These findings enhance our understanding
of the biodiversity and ecological significance of palm-associated microfungi in tropical
ecosystems.
