Type description

van Geel 1978: Spores slightly curved, light brown, 63-82 X 11-14 μm, (2-)3-4(-6) septate. Septa often becoming detached from the wall. Spores tapering at both ends gradually and provided with about 2 μm wide pores or sometimes passing into septate hyphae (often broken off at the point of connection). These hyphae could be part of a conidiophore, but more probably represent germ tubes of ascospores. The Type 53 curve does not yet give any ecological information.
