Three new cercosporoid hyphomycetes were found associated with leaf spots on three host families in a stretch of Atlantic Forest in Viçosa, Minas Gerais, Brazil: Pseudocercospora aurelianae sp. nov. on Aureliana velutina (Solanaceae), P. vicosae sp. nov. on Eupatorium sp. (Asteraceae), and Passalora rolliniae sp. nov. on Rollinia sylvatica (Annonaceae).
