The first field collections of Cornuvia serpula (Wigand) Rostaf. from the Neotropics are reported herein. They were recovered from accumulated leaf litter of Quercus sp. in a cloud forest in Chiapas, Mexico. This paper includes a full taxonomic description based on the Mexican specimens and is supported by micrographs obtained from light and scanning electron microscope examinations. Some comments on the ecology of the species based on information in the literature and from observations of the field collected specimens are included.
