Summary: | Twenty-one taxa of trichomycetes are recorded from aquatic insects collected from sites on the east and west coasts of Newfoundland. Three new species, Smittium colboi Strongman sp. nov., Smittium georgense Strongman sp. nov., and Stachylina forantipes Strongman sp. nov., are described. Spartiella barbata Tuzet & Manier ex Manier is reported for the first time in North America, and six species are new geographic records for Newfoundland. Of these six, three are new records for Atlantic Canada. Pennella hovassi Manier ex Manier was recovered from sites in eastern Newfoundland, and taxonomically important features of this and other species in the genus are discussed. |
