Abstract
A unique fungus characterized by the production of large, dark, multiseptate, fusiform chlamydospores is described and illustrated, and assigned to the new genus XYLOMYCES, as X. chlamydosporis. The fungus was found on several occasions on immersed dead, decaying wood, collected in a tide-water stream in southern Rhode Island [USA], and is also known from a single collection made in Alabama. The new genus, placed in the Mycelia Sterilia of the Hyphomycetes, is suggestive of the fossil genus Pluricellaesporites.
