This chapter describes 17 taxa belonging to four genera of the family Meruliaceae based on the specimens collected from various localities of Chamba district (Himachal Pradesh). Of the recorded taxa, Hyphoderma clavatum Sheng H. Wu, H. lapponicum (Litsch.) Ryvarden and H. nemorale K.H. Larss. are the new additions to the fungal diversity of Himachal Pradesh. H. sibiricum (Parmasto) J. Erikss. & Å. Strid. is described for the first time from Chamba district.
