Abstract

Allomyces neomoniliformis and Dictyuchus missouriensis were isolated from agricultural soil with organic matter (leaves, roots and twigs) in Argentina. Both are reported for the first time from Argentina and for the second time for South America; this is the southernmost record of these species in the Western Hemisphere. These are the second isolations made of a member of the genus Allomyces and Dictyuchus in Argentina. Remarks on their distribution are also made.
