RESUMO

Balansia epichloë (Weese) and B. henningsiana (Moell.) were isolated from grasses in toxic fescue pastures. B. epichloë, cultured in a synthetic medium, was toxic to chicken embryos. Thin-layer chromatography and ultraviolet absorption data indicated that in submerged culture the fungus produced compounds with the indole or ergoline nucleus.
