Notes on fungi from North-East India. V. A new genus of the Helicosporous hyphomycetes

A very interesting tuberculariaceous fungus has been repeatedly collected during the rainy months (May-Sept.) in the last 3 years or so on decaying wood. It was collected once on decaying frames of an uprooted tea bush on the Cinnamara Tea Estate, Assam, in 1957, but not on tea since then. Although the fungus was usually collected in a pure stand, sometimes, nevertheless, it was found in association with an undetermined species of Helicosporium
