Abstract
Cultures of the members of Ascosphaeraceae — the only family in Ascosphaerales under the series Plectomycetes — were compared and emended by adding new and hitherto undescribed characters. Bettsia gen. nov. with the species B. alvei comb. nov. is separated from Ascosphaera. A. apis var. major is raised to a separate species as A. major comb. nov., and A. proliperda sp. nov. is erected. Neotypes are designated for B. alvei and A. major. The new Ascosphaera species are found associated with the solitary bee, Megachile centuncularis.
