Fig. 12. Penidiella rigidophora (type material). A–F. Micronematous conidiophores giving rise to chains of conidia. G–H. Macronematous conidiophores (note base in G, <strong>and</strong><br />

apex in H). I. Conidia. Scale bars = 10 µm.<br />

Specimen examined: Cuba, isolated from leaf litter of Smilax sp. (Smilacaceae), 6.<br />

Nov. 1994, R.F. Castañeda, holotype <strong>CBS</strong> H-19938, culture ex-type <strong>CBS</strong> 314.95.<br />

Notes: <strong>Cladosporium</strong> rigidophorum is a herbarium name, which was<br />

never validly published. <strong>The</strong> ex-type strain, however, represents a<br />

new species of Penidiella, for which a valid name with Latin diagnosis<br />

is herewith provided. This species is easily distinguishable from all<br />

other taxa of Penidiella by forming distinct constrictions at hyphal<br />

<strong>and</strong> conidial septa as well as micronematous conidiophores (except<br />

for P. venezuelensis in which a few micronematous conidiophores<br />

have been observed). It is also phylogenetically distinct from the<br />

other taxa of Penidiella (see Fig. 1 in Crous et al. 2007a – this<br />

volume).<br />
