Abstract

The new species Aquaticola longicolla, A. triseptata and A. minutiguttulata are described from tropical freshwater habitats in the tropics. Aquaticola longicolla and A. minutiguttulata differ in producing long-necked ascomata, while A. triseptata is unique in having 3-septate ascospores. These taxa are compared with similar species and the genus is reviewed synoptically.
