Very little work has been done with regard to the presence and distribution of coprophilous Pyrenomycetes in the Province of Quebec. So far only the Ungava Bay area and the Lake Mistassini area of the province have been surveyed by Cain(l957) concerning the presence offimicolous Ascomycetes. Barr(l961) in her study of the Pyrenomycetes of Gaspesian Park, Quebec recorded the presence of a few coprophilous species. No survey of the occurrence of coprophilous Pyrenomycetes has been done on the island of Montreal and vicinity. Thus theaim of this study is to make such a survey in this area,which will be helpful in adding to our knowledge of the local flora.[.]
