Samuels GJ, Rossman AY, Chaverri P, Overton B, Poldmaa K. 2006. Hypocreales of the South-Eastern United States: an Identification Guide. Utrecht: Centraalbureau voor Schimmel cultures

Technical Abstract: An illustrated guide to the members of the ascomycete order Hypocreales that are known to occur in the south-eastern states of the United States, including North and South Carolina, Tennessee and Georgia is presented. Species were selected mainly based on records in the United States National Fungus Collections (BPI). These states surround the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. The members of the Hypocreales are among the most numerous, and certainly most conspicuous of the microfungi. The order also includes some of the most economically important fungi. This guide is intended for individuals who are participating in All Taxa Biological Diversity studies of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park as well as other interested professionals and amateurs. Short descriptions and color illustrations of ninety-eight species and two varieties in nineteen genera are provided. Keys to genera and species are included. The new combination Neonectria ditissima is proposed.
