Host:
Scale insects (Coccidae; Hemiptera).
Description:
Stromata epibiotic, flattened to convex, cylindrical to irregularly shaped, upper surface very pale violet to dark purple, lower surface white to pale orange, 3-25 mm wide, 1-3 mm thick. Perithecia semi-immersed, slightly protruding apices, narrow flask shaped, slightly protruding, obclavate, 300-360 × 100-120 μm. Asci cylindrical, up to 215 μm. long, 3-4 μm. wide. Asci caps 2-4 × 3-4 μm. Ascospores hyaline, whole, filiform, aseptate, 175-200 × 1 μm.
Culture characteristics:
Colony on PDA attaining a diam of 3–4 cm in 14 d, cottony, white, pale orang in the middle of colony, reverse dark red in the middle, bright strong purplish red pigment diffusing in medium. Phialides arising from aerial hyphae, solitary, cylindrical or acremonium-like, up to 50 μm long, 1–2 μm wide. Conidia hyaline, enteroblastic, fusiform to acerose, early in development aseptate, mostly becoming 1 septum, occasionally 2–3 septa, aggregated at the apex of the phialides, 7–22 × 1.5–3 μm.
