Abstract

Two new cercosporoid hyphomycetes from Vanuatu, Cercospora sphathulata and Pseudocercospora pometiae, are described and illustrated. Six new records of cercosporoid hyphomycetes that cause plant diseases from New Caledonia, Samoa and Vanuatu are given. Four new hosts of Cercospora apii s. lat. from the region are reported.

Keywords: Cercospora-like anamorphs, fungal diversity, new taxa.
