Twelve species of the order Xylariales were studied in pure culture. Their morphology during growth and the effect of temperature on growth rates were observed. Conidial stages were recorded in ten species, three of them for the first time in culture. The study emphasizes the usefulness of culture studies in clarifying life cycles and taxonomy of stromatic Pyrenomycetes.
