Habitat:

Underside of a dicotyledonous leaf


Host:

Ophiocordyceps polyrhachis-furcata


Description:

White and cottony mycelium forming on the stroma of Ophiocordyceps polyrhachis_x0002_furcata. Hyphae septate, hyaline, smooth-walled, irregularly branched, 1–2 µm wide. Synnemata > 2 mm long and 80–100 µm wide, indeterminate, simple, cylindrical, curved, occasionally dichotomously branched, consisting of longitudinal paralleled cells. Conidiophores mono- or synnematous, septate, cylindrical to linear, simple, dichotomously or irregularly branched of variable length. Conidiogenous cells arising directly from the hyphae, cylindrical, 10–33 × 1 µm, bearing a rather irregular, geniculate rachis. Conidia forming on denticles, ellipsoidal to cylindrical with rounded ends and an apiculus, hyaline, smooth-walled, aseptate, 3–5 × 1–1.5 µm
