Abstract

Three new species of Graphidaceae found in Henri Pittier National Park (Aragua-Carabobo, Venezuela) are described: Fissurina redingerioides Lücking, J. E. Hern. & Kalb, differing from Fissurina instabilis in the ascomata arranged as pores distributed in irregular rows, resembling Redingeria leiostoma; Myriotrema ecorticatum Lücking, J. E. Hern. & Kalb, differing from Myriotrema uniseptatum in the larger, 3-septate ascospores; and Ocellularia isidiza Lücking, J. E. Hern. & Rivas Plata, characterized by thick, horizontally annulate isidia unknown from other species of Graphidaceae.
