Abstract

During our investigations in Himachal Pradesh India, we reported five species of hyphomycetous fungi, which are described and illustrated herein. These fungi are Dictyoarthrinium lilliputeum, Hansfordia catalonica, Neohelicosporium nizamabadense, Pseudotetraploa javanica and Zygosporium masonii belonging to family Apiosporaceae, Hansfordiaceae, Tubeufiaceae, Tetraplosphaeriaceae and Zygosporiaceae, respectively.
