Box 19395-1454, Tehran 1985813111, Iran Abstract This study was carried out to contribute to the knowledge of biodiversity of xylariaceous fungi from North of Iran. Plant materials with fruiting bodies of xylariaceous fungi were collected and examined. Eight species viz . Annulohypoxylon nitens , Biscogniauxia anceps , B. capnodes var. rumpens , B. mediterranea , B. plana , Hypoxylon flavoargillaceum , Jumillera cinerea , and Nemania illita were identified. All these except B. mediterranea are new to the Iranian mycobiota. A dichotomous identification key for all the xylariaceous fungi examined by the authors from North of Iran is presented.

Members of September, 2011–12. Parts of the branches, barks and the Xylariales generally produce well-developed trunks of infested trees with Hypoxylon and its allied stromata, with thick-walled perithecial ascomata either genera were collected. Specimens were initially immersed in the stroma or superficial and papillate examined by stereo-microscope for stromata appearance ostioles. Asci are cylindrical with an amyloid apical ring; and development on the plant material. Several cross ascospores are mainly with germ-slits or pores. The sections from stromata were made using a razor blade anamorph is characterized by producing conidia under a stereo-microscope to observe granules holoblastically from a sympodially, or occasionally immediately beneath surface and between perithecia. The percurrently, proliferating conidiogenous region isolates were purified by single spore method on 2% (Whalley 1996, Rogers 2000). Xylariaceous species are water agar. Isolates were cultured on Oatmeal Agar (OA, typically saprobes, but are also commonly isolated as Difco) and Malt extract Agar (MA) and incubated at 20° endophytes and some species are pathogens (Rogers C under 12 h fluorescent light. The morphological 1979, Whalley 1996). Some members of the Xylariales characteristics of fungi grown on OA were studied using are very important pathogens, causing large economic light microscope. losses. For example, Biscogniauxia mediterranea canker For microscopic studies, fungal structures were of the cork oak ( Quercus suber L.) and Turkish oak examined using a BH2 Olympus microscope equipped (Quercus cerris L.) is a serious problem in the with a Sony digital camera (DSC-HX1). All Mediterranean area (Jurc & Ogris 2006). Another measurements were taken in water and are based on at species, Rosellinia necatrix is the causative agent of root least 25–30 measurements. To study KOH extractable rot on a broad range of commercial crops such as apple, pigments, ascospores germ-slit and dehiscence and asci grape vine, pear, plum, poplar and walnut (Whalley apical ring, Ju & Rogers (1996) procedures was 1996). followed. Identification of the taxa is mainly based on Ju A few studies on the xylariaceous taxa have been & Rogers (1996), Rogers et al. (1997), Ju et al . (1998), conducted in Iran. Daneshpazhuh (1980) has reported Ju & Rogers (2002), Ju et al . (2004), Vasilyeva et al . seven species of Hypoxylon from Iran. Ershad (2009) has (2007) and Pereira et al. (2010).
