The <strong>Colletotrichum</strong> acutatum <strong>species</strong> <strong>complex</strong>Fig. 3. <strong>Colletotrichum</strong> acutatum (from ex-epitype strain <strong>CBS</strong> 112996). A–B. Conidiomata. C–I. Conidioph<strong>or</strong>es. J–Q. Appress<strong>or</strong>ia. R–S. Conidia. A, C–D, R. from Anthriscusstem. B, E–Q, S. from SNA. A–B. DM, C–S. DIC, Scale bars: A = 200 µm, B = 100 µm, C = 10 µm. Scale bar of C applies to C–S.sequence of C. acerbum (with 99 % identity, 3 bp differences), werewith the ITS of C. ph<strong>or</strong>mii and C. salicis, which are all members ofthe same maj<strong>or</strong> clade.<strong>Colletotrichum</strong> acutatum J.H. Simmonds, Queensland J.agric. Anim. Sci. 25: 178A. 1968. Fig. 3.≡ <strong>Colletotrichum</strong> acutatum J.H. Simmonds, Queensland J. agric. Anim.Sci. 22: 458. 1965, nom. inval., Art. 37.1.Sexual m<strong>or</strong>ph not observed. Asexual m<strong>or</strong>ph on SNA. Vegetativehyphae 1–5.5 µm diam, hyaline, smooth-walled, septate,branched. Chlamydosp<strong>or</strong>es not observed. Conidiomata absent,conidioph<strong>or</strong>es f<strong>or</strong>med directly on vegetative hyphae. Setae notobserved. Conidioph<strong>or</strong>es hyaline, smooth-walled, mostly simple,sometimes septate and branched, to 25 µm long. Conidiogenouscells hyaline, smooth-walled, cylindrical to slightly inflated, often notclearly separated from subtending hyphae by a septum, 3.5–20 ×2–3.5 µm, opening 1–1.5 µm diam, collarette distinct, 1–1.5 µmlong, periclinal thickening conspicuous. Conidia hyaline, smoothwalled,aseptate, straight, cylindrical to fusif<strong>or</strong>m with both endsacute, (7.5–)11–14.5(–19) × 3.5–4(–4.5) µm, mean ± SD = 12.6 ±1.8 × 3.9 ± 0.3 µm, L/W ratio = 3.2, conidia of strains <strong>CBS</strong> 112759,<strong>CBS</strong> 112979 and <strong>CBS</strong> 979.69 differ in being cylindrical to clavateand having one round and one acute end, e.g., conidia of strain<strong>CBS</strong> 112759 are smaller, measuring (6.5–)8.5–12(–13) × (2.5–)3–4µm, mean ± SD = 10.3 ± 1.9 × 3.4 ± 0.5 µm, L/W ratio = 3.1.Appress<strong>or</strong>ia solitary, medium brown, smooth-walled, ellipsoidalto obovate, entire edge, sometimes undulate, (4–)5.5–9(–13) ×(3–)4–6.5(–9.5) µm, mean ± SD = 7.3 ± 2.0 × 5.4 ± 1.2 µm, L/Wratio = 1.3.Asexual m<strong>or</strong>ph on Anthriscus stem. Conidiomata acervular,conidioph<strong>or</strong>es f<strong>or</strong>med on a cushion of pale brown angular cells,2–7 µm diam. Setae not observed. Conidioph<strong>or</strong>es hyaline, septate,branched, smooth-walled, to 50 µm long. Conidiogenous cellshyaline, smooth-walled, cylindrical, 9–18 × 3–3.5 µm, opening1–1.5 µm diam, collarette distinct, 0.5 µm long, periclinal thickeningconspicuous. Conidia hyaline, smooth-walled, aseptate, straight,fusif<strong>or</strong>m to cylindrical, apex and base unif<strong>or</strong>mly acute, (8.5–)12–16.5(–17.5) × (3–)3.5–4.5(–5) µm, mean ± SD = 14.3 ± 2.1 × 4.1± 0.4 µm, L/W ratio = 3.5, conidia of strains <strong>CBS</strong> 112759, <strong>CBS</strong>370.73 and <strong>CBS</strong> 112979 differ in being cylindrical to clavate and inhaving one round and one acute end, conidia of strain <strong>CBS</strong> 370.73are smaller, measuring (5–)6.5–11(–12.5) × (2–)2.5–3.5(–4.5) µm,mean ± SD = 8.8 ± 2.1 × 3.2 ± 0.5 µm, L/W ratio = 2.7.Culture characteristics: Colonies on SNA flat with entire margin,hyaline with white aerial mycelium on Anthriscus stem and filterpaper, reverse of filter paper partly pale ochreous; growth rate21–24.5 mm in 7 d (30–36.5 mm in 10 d). Colonies on OA flatwith entire margin; surface buff, rosy buff, salmon to peach due tosp<strong>or</strong>ulation, with olivaceous sect<strong>or</strong>s in the centre, partly covered bywhite floccose aerial mycelium, reverse rosy buff to flesh, smokegrey to olivaceous grey in the centre; growth rate 20–25 mm in 7 d(31–33.5 mm in 10 d).
