Abstract

Imported wood is a potential route for exotic fungi to be introduced into Taiwan. For those fungi occurring on wood, ophiostomatoid fungi are the most important. The aim of this study is to survey ophiostomatoid fungi on wood imported into Taiwan. Four species were acquired. They are Ophiostoma floccosum, O. pluriannulatum, O. quercus, and Leptographium bistatum. Among them, Ophiostoma floccosum and O. pluriannulatum have not been reported occurring in Taiwan. Descriptions and illustrations of these fungi were provided.
