abstract = {Endophytes are microorganisms that live asymptomatically within plant tissues. Some medical compounds such as taxol are produced by endophytic fungi. Spinifex littoreus is an important coastal grass for stabilizing and protecting coastal areas and it has been shown to have anti-inflammatory properties, however, little is known about the organisms associated with this plant. In this study, a new species of Neostagonospora was found by combining culture-dependent, culture-independent and opportunistic collection approaches. Based on molecular data from the ITS and RPB2 markers and on morphological data, the species differed from other Neostagonospora species. Neostagonospora spinificis is proposed as a new species. The shape of conidiogenous cells as well as numbers of septa and size of conidia are useful characters for distinguishing Neostagonospora species. A key to the known species of Neostagonospora is provided.}
