Polyphialoseptoria sp.
Polyphialoseptoria sp.
Habit on leaves of unidentified plant host. Sexual morph: undetermined. Asexual morph: Conidiomata 160–200 µm diam., 150–250 µm high, dark brown to black, pycnidial, usually solitary, immersed to erumpent, globose to subglobose, unilocular, glabrous, thin-walled, ostiolate. Ostiole circular, centrally located. Conidiomatal wall 10–25 µm wide, composed of thin-walled, brown to pale brown cells of textura angularis. Conidiophores arising from the inner wall layer of conidiomata, hyaline, short cylindrical, septate, smooth-walled. Conidiogenous cells 6–14 × 1–3 µm, hyaline, enteroblastic, phialidic, cylindrical to ampulliform, determinate, discrete, smooth-walled. Conidia 14.5–30 × 1.6–3 µm (
= 21 × 2 µm; n = 30), hyaline, subcylindrical, with obtuse apex, and subtruncate base, curved, 1–3-septate, smooth-walled.
Material examined: Thailand, Chiang Mai, on leaves of unidentified plant host, 4 February 2012, N. Tangthirasunun, NTCL038-2F (MFLU 13-0246).
