Verkley et al.ampulliform <strong>to</strong> almost cyl<strong>in</strong>crical, often with a relatively narrow neck,holoblastic, first proliferat<strong>in</strong>g sympodially, and <strong>in</strong> some cells lateralso percurrently 1–several times with <strong>in</strong>dist<strong>in</strong>ct annellations, 12–18(–20) × 2.5–6 µm. Conidia cyl<strong>in</strong>drical, straight or slightly curved,flexuous, with a narrowly rounded <strong>to</strong> somewhat po<strong>in</strong>ted apex,attenuated <strong>to</strong>wards the narrowly truncate base, (1–)3(–5)-septate,not constricted around the septa, hyal<strong>in</strong>e, contents with several oildropletsand granular material <strong>in</strong> each cell <strong>in</strong> the liv<strong>in</strong>g state, with<strong>in</strong>conspicuous oil-droplets and granular contents <strong>in</strong> the rehydratedstate, (22–)16–48 × (1–)1.5–2 µm (rehydrated).

Conidiomata develop<strong>in</strong>g immersed or on theagar surface after 10–2 wk. Colonies on MEA 10–13 mm diam <strong>in</strong> 2wk, with a slighlty ruffled, buff <strong>to</strong> amber marg<strong>in</strong>; colonies restricted,irregularly pustulate, the surface entirely covered by a low, densemat of whitish <strong>to</strong> grey f<strong>in</strong>ely felted aerial mycelium; reverse darkbrown <strong>to</strong> almost black, locally fulvous <strong>to</strong> sienna.
