【 摘 要 】

A continuing survey of coprophilous fungi associated with elephant dung in Kerala State, India has resulted in the discovery of two lesser known xylariaceous fungi. This forms the second record worldwide of Podosordaria elephanti and the first record of Poronia pileiformis on elephant dung. Both fungi are described, illustrated and discussed based on the Kerala collections.
