Type description

Gelorini et al 2011: Conidia ellipsoid, unequally and asymmetrically 4-celled, 30–45×17–30 μm, smooth, thick-walled, slightly constricted at the septa, rounded at one end; septa dark; one central cell often darker than other cells; basal cell subhyaline, truncate and slightly thin-walled. Based on size and morphological variation, this morphotype probably includes different Bactrodesmium species, and maybe also other representatives of unknown but similarly looking genera.
