Abstract
In a survey of saprobic conidial fungi from the semi-arid Caatinga biome, northeast of Brazil, three new species, Arachnophora polybrachiata, Hermatomyces uniseriatus and Vanakripa inexpectata, are proposed. Dendryphiosphaera taiensis is a new record for the American continent and Luzfridiella insignis, Memnoniella levispora, Periconia jabalpurensis, Pseudopetrakia kambakkamensis, Sadasivania girisa and Vanakripa rhizophorae are new records from South America. Notes, illustrations and descriptions based on natural substrates are presented for all species.
