Summary:Anaselenosporella sylvatica anam. gen. & sp. nov. found on dead leaves of an unidentified plant and Pseudoacrodictys aquatica found on a decaying twig submerged in a stream, both in Veracruz, Mexico, are described and illustrated. The former is distinguished by fasciculate, macronematous, dichotomous branched, brown conidiophores, and polyblastic, sympodially proliferating conidiogenous cells with flat to slightly convex and obscure loci. The conidia are solitary, unicellular, acicular, semicircular, and curved to uncinate. The latter is characterized by sub-involute or imbricate, globose to irregular, dark brown to black conidia.
