Resumo

The heterobasidiomycete fungus Eocronartium muscicola is an obligate parasite recorded on about 21 moss species,
mainly from the Northern Hemisphere. It interacts with its hosts mainly by replacing the sporophyte and obtaining water
and nutrients from the gametophyte through specialized tissues. This work reports for the first time E. muscicola on the
native mosses Eurhynchium corralense and Eurhynchiella acanthophylla in central and southern Chile, in different forest
formations. Also, associations between fungi and bryophytes as well as the taxonomic status of Chilean host mosses and its
relationship with E. muscicola are discussed.
