Description:
Ascomata hemispherical perithecial plates, singly or composed of multiple perithecial plates, pale brownish orange, 2-8 mm in diam, 2-3 mm high.
Perithecia immersed, obovate, 420-600 × 160-230 μm, with dark brown ostioles.
Asci cylindrical, 165-400 × 4-5 μm with caps 4-5 μm thick.
Ascospores hyaline, filiform with one end blunt and narrow at the other end, 3-septate, 60-125 × 1-2 μm. Colour change of stromata in 3 % KOH not observed.
Culture characteristics:
Colonies on PDA attaining 8–10 mm diam in 14 d, yellowish white, reverse uncoloured. Dimorphic with mass of conidia, yeast-like and vegetative hyphae smooth, wet, 3–4 μm diam. Conidia holoblastic, hyaline, cylindrical to filiform, narrower at one end than the other, 1–3-septate, 22–70 × 1.5–2 μm, with dichotomously branched appendages, usually appearing at the narrow end of conidia, 1–5 × 0.5 μm.
