Abstract
A new member of the chytrid genus Scherffeliomyces, S. legtorrhizus, is described, parasitic on Zygnema sp. in northern Michigan. The characteristics of the closely related, monotypic genus Corraliochytrium are dis-cussed. It is proposed that Coralliochytrium be reduced to synonymy with Scherffeliomyces and that its single sp. be assigned the new combination, S. scherf felii, (=Coralliochytrium s. Domjan).This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
