Abstract

Clavulicium extendenssp. nov., is newly described from Queensland. It occurs in rainforest and wet sclerophyll forest where it forms an extensive, white, external, mycelial membrane on dead and living twigs and stems, and spreads aerially between branches by means of attachment pads. No evidence was found that C. extendens is able to penetrate or injure living plant tissue, but it is not yet possible to conclude that this fungus is non-pathogenic.
