Two new species of Verticillium, V. campanulatum and V.seriatum were found to parasitize free‐living nematodes in samples of dung from deciduous woodland in the S.E. of England. Both species produced infective conidia in a catenulate arrangement and V.campanulatum had an accessory spore state. The synonymy of Acmstalagmus zeosporus with Verticillium balanoides is not accepted, and A.zeosporus is transferred to Verticillium as a separate species, V.zeosporum.
