abstract = {Three desiccation-tolerant discomycetes, i.e. Mellitiosporium propolidoides, Propolis hillmanniana and Propolis rhodoleuca, were frequently encountered on coniferous branches in Austria, and are illustrated and discussed. The fact that they are common in various parts of Austria but have rarely been reported from elsewhere indicates that fungi with this specific ecology have largely been overlooked by mycologists. Those three species, among certain other ascomycetes, appear to have very specific ecological preferences and are thus often found together in the same location and sometimes even on the same branches}}
