     Two species that morphologically resemble Diatrype s. str. were collected from the monsoon evergreen broad-leaved forest in Pu’er, Yunnan, China. DNA sequence based phylogenetic analyses (combined ITS and β-tubulin2) confi rmed that these taxa belong to Allodiatrype s. str. (Diatrypaceae, Xylariales, Sordariomycetes) but are distinct from other species, thus introduced as new species A. taiyangheensis and A. albelloscutata. Both species are compared with other taxa of Allodiatrype. These two species are the second records of Allodiatrype from China.
