摘　　要：Ascobolus is a very large genus among coprophilous fungi colonizing dung.There are very few workers who have explored dung fungi from India.During a recent trip to Andaman Islands,examination of cow dung samples revealed a new coprophilous fungus in the genus Ascobolus and the same has been reported in this paper.The present new species A.gomayapriya colonizes and grows on cow dung.A.gomayapriya is characterized by stalked,light-greenish-yellow apothecial ascomata,long cylindrical,short pedicellate asci with rounded apical caps,positive bluing reaction to Lougal’s reagent,ascospores that are hyaline to pale yellow red,smooth,cylindrical,thick-walled with two layers,sparsely dotted verruculose surface,very thin crevices.
