Decaying bamboo in freshwater is a unique eco-environment for fungi. Three new Distoseptispora (Distoseptisporaceae) species, D.meilingensis , D.yongxiuensis and D.yunjushanensis from submerged decaying bamboo culms in Jiangxi Province, China, were discovered, based on phylogenetic analyses and morphological characters. The combined data of ITS-LSU-SSU- Tef 1 sequences were used to infer the phylogenetic relationship between D.meilingensis , D.yongxiuensis , D.yunjushanensis and related species. Both molecular analyses and morphological data supported D.meilingensis , D.yongxiuensis and D.yunjushanensis as three independent taxa.
