abstract = {During a survey of the ophiostomatoid fungi associated with the spruce-infesting bark beetles of the genus Ips De Geer an undescribed Leptographium species was isolated from the Ips perturbatus beetles collected from felled spruce trees and logs in northern British Columbia and the Yukon Territory. This species was characterized based on its morphology, nuclear rDNA and partial ?-tubulin gene sequences. The fungus grew optimally at 25 ?C on 2% malt extract agar and showed a high level of tolerance to cycloheximide. The Leptographium sp. has long, grouped conidiophores and is morphologically most similar to L. abietinum while is genetically close to O. abiocarpum. Comparison of DNA sequence data as well as morphological and physiological characteristics, confirmed that this fungus represents a new species described here as L. fruticetum.}
