New and interesting Chaetomium species from East Africa

Abstract
Three new coprophilous Chaetomium species are described and illustrated: C. subcircinatum from Tanzania, C. retardatum from Kenya and Zaire (Congo), and C. multispirale from Kenya, Canada and Mexico. Many additional records are provided for 13 previously described species and species groups, several of which are redescribed from pure cultures. A comparison of 2 closely related species, C. globosum and C. coarctatum, is presented.
