Ascomatal morphology, fungicolous lifestyle, and phylogenetic comparison of their ITS sequences with species in six similar genera of Nectriaceae having a fusarium-like asexual morph support their placement in Stylonectria. Based on morphological divergences of both sexual and asexual morphs, as well as the ITS sequences from known Stylonectria species, S. alpina and S. tuedensis are proposed as new species.}}
