Abstract

Descriptions and keys are provided for ten species of fungi currently placed in the Boliniaceae (Camaropella, Camarops and Peridoxylori) or Xylariaceae (Biscogniauxia, Camillea and Whalleya), but which possess features morphologically similar to those found in the Diatrypaceae. All of these are now known from the Great Smoky Mountains National Park in the eastern United States. Biscogniauxia rumpens (Cooke) Lar.N. Vassiljeva, comb. nov. and Camaropella lutea (Alb. & Schwein.: Fr.) Lar.N. Vassiljeva, comb. nov. are proposed as new combinations.
