An additional update on the genus Chaetomium with descriptions of two coprophilous species, new to Italy

Two Chaetomium species new to Italy, C. brasiliense and C. succineum, are described and an updated key to coprophilous Chaetomium from Italy is provided. All author’s collections of 23 species so far known from dung in Italy are listed. Following the recent publications describing new species, the worldwide key to Chaetomium species is updated.
