Description:
Stromata epibiotic, irregularly pulvinate or subglobose, upper surface very pale violet to light purplish gray, lower surface vivid yellow to strong orange, 3-7 mm wide.
Perithecia semi-immersed, crowded, obovoid, 150-320 × 80-140 μm.
Asci cylindrical, 150-193 × 4-5 μm. Asci caps 1.5-2 × 3-3.5 μm. Ascospores hyaline, whole, filiform, aseptate, extending the length of ascus.
Culture characteristics:
Colony on PDA attaining a diam of 3.5–4 cm in 20 d, compact mycelium, slightly convex to the agar surface, white, pale purplish pink pigment diffusing in medium, reverse strong yellowish pink. Phialides arising from aerial hyphae, solitary, cylindrical or acremonium-like, slightly curved, 43–265 × 1–2 μm.
