“…Another set of species that deserve special recognition are the eight new genera of trichomatous hyphomycetes found on members of the Icacinaceae, Malphigiaceae, Fabaceae, Dilleniaceae, Chrysobalanaceae, and Caryocaraceae, revealing the trichomes as an unusual site of epiphyllous fungal diversity (PEREIRA-CARVALHO et al 2009a), sometimes with parasitic ability (CANTRELL et al 2011). An ongoing contribution reveals that a fungus hyperparasite of a Phyllachora species, in leaves of Eugenia florida from the Cerrado, treated as a basidiomycete for 134 years since its original description by Spegazzini (1886) as Microcera clavariella, and named Clavaria parasitica Viégas & Texeira (VIÉGAS & TEIXEIRA 1945), was shown now to be an ascomycete, Cladosterigma clavariellum, inserted in Gomphillaceae (Lecanoromycetes, Graphidales), a family of predominantly lichenized fungi (SANTOS et al 2020).…”

In this review, we present an historic account of the work on the diversity of fungi associated with plants of the Cerrado Biome, including an overview of the studies carried out by the research group of the Mycological Collection connected to the Herbarium UB (Universidade de Brasília), and the rust fungi in Herbarium IBI (Instituto Biológico, São Paulo). The contributions to Cerrado mycology from the early 19th century to the present days were highlighted. Illustrative maps were included to show the geographical distribution of the main fungal groups, associated with native plants of the Cerrado, belonging to the five predominant orders: Pucciniales (rust fungi), Phyllachorales (tar-spot fungi), Capnodiales (cercosporoid fungi: Family Mycosphaerellaceae), as well as Meliolales and Asterinales (black mildews).
