Abstract
Collections of epifoliar ascomycete fungi from leaf surfaces in the tropical rain forests of Queensland, Australia, yielded 42 genera and 50 species, including one new genus (Dubujiana), three new species (Dennisiela asetosa, Dubujiana glandulifera, Microxiphium pleomorphum), three new combinations (Polychaeton purpuraefaciens, Seuratia australiensis, Stomiopeltis gautheriae), lectotypification of Micropeltis biseptata, various emended descriptions, and new species records. Each species is described and compared with similar taxa, and the new species are illustrated.
