A new ascomycete species, Jahnula apiospora (Jahnulales, Dothideomycetes), collected from submerged wood in a freshwater creek on Prince Edward Island, Canada, is described and illustrated. The characteristic features of the new species are globose to subglobose, black, ostiolate, membranous ascomata with broad, brown, subtending hyphae; a peridial wall composed of an outer layer of thick-walled cells occluded by black, amorphous material along the upper two-thirds of the ascoma; trabeculate pseudoparaphyses; cylindrical to narrowly fusoid, fissitunicate asci; and brown, one-septate, apiosporous ascospores without a gelatinous sheath or appendages.
