Abstract
A molecular and morphological investigation of 35 collections of Daldinia f rom 11 plant species revealed five taxonomic entities of Daldinia in northe rn Europe. These include Daldinia concentrica, D. cf.. fissa, D. grandis, D . loculata and D. cf. petriniae. D. cf. fissa, D. grandis and D. loculata w ere found exclusively on burnt wood, but they do not form a monophyletic un it in a phylogenetic tree derived from analysis of the ITS sequence of the ribosomal DNA.
