Fungal species new in Poland on Carex and Juncus

Abstract

Twelve fungal species colonising plants of the genus Carex and six species on plants of the genus Juncus were recorded during investigations in the Słowiński National Park. Six species new in Poland were identified (Leptosphaeria juncina, Lophodemium caricinum, Septoriella junci, Stagonospora innumerosa, S. junciseda and S. vitensis), and new hosts of 5 other species were found.
