Abstract

The paper considers 13 species belonging to the genera Diatrype and Cryptosphaeria (Diatrypaceae) found in north-eastern China (Heilongjiang and Jilin Provinces). Cryptosphaeria nigrescens and Diatrype sinensis are described as new species. Four species recorded are only known from the area around the Sea of Japan, three other species display a biogeographical pattern known as ‘Asa Gray disjunction’, and two species are reported far from their main findings in Europe.
