Abstract:
The occurrence of three new species of Harpellales in the Iberian Peninsula is reported. Capniomyces celatus was found in Nemouridae (Plecoptera) nymphs, Stipella latispora in Simuliidae (Diptera) larvae and Legeriomyces dolabrae with Baetidae (Ephemeroptera) nymphs. These species are differentiated from others by thalli and/or reproductive structures. Geographic range extensions for other species of Harpellales also are reported; these are Graminella bulbosa, Pennella angustispora, Spartiella barbata, Stachylina euthena, St. grandispora, St. pedifer, St. penetralis, St. prolifica, St. robusta and Stipella vigilans. All are compared with related taxa and are illustrated with photographs. Finally a summary of the known Harpellales occurring in the Iberian territory is provided with data on their distribution and ecology.
