Abstract
During surveys of hyphomycetes from the Northwest of China, two undescribed taxa of Stemphylium were discovered from diseased leaves of Malus sieversii and Pyrus sinkiangensis in Sinkiang Province, which are described as S. mali and S. pyrinum. The two species differ from similar species morphologically.
