Includes index.

The four main genera of the Graphidaceae in Dominica, Graphis (27 species), Phaeographis (7 species), Graphina (25 species), and Phaeographina (6 species), are treated monographically with full synonymy, descriptions, chemistry, and illustrations. The family as a whole is common in all primary and secondary forests and at all elevations. Eight new species are described: Graphis imshaugii, G. isidiifera, Phaeographis mordenii, Graphina carneoviridis, G. suberythrella, G. triphoroides, Phaeographina atrovermicularis, and P. coriaria. Three new combinations, Graphina columbina (Tuckerman) Wirth and Hale, G. illinata (Eschweiler) Wirth and Hale, and G. plurispora (Redinger) Wirth and Hale, are also made.
