Rhabdocline parkeri, a ubiquitous foliar endophyte of Douglas-fir

Abstract
Rhabdocline parkeri n. sp. (Hemiphacideaceae) is described, together with its sporodochial anamorph, Meria parkeri n. sp. Rhabdocline parkeri occurs as localized endophytic infections of living Douglas-fir needles, fruiting primarily on senescent, galled, or dead needles. It is ubiquitous in western Oregon, occurring on essentially all trees sampled in an extensive survey of Douglas-fir needle endophytes, and has been recorded from Washington and northern California.
