Gymnothecia globose, subglobose or ellipsoidal, white, 198-357 × 159-254 μm, maturing in 2 weeks or more on MEA at 37°C; ascomata initials borne from coiled or contorted hyphal segments (crozier), swollen irregularly branched, twisted and developing into ascogenous hyphae; asci borne singly, subglobose to ellipsoidal or pyriform, 16.7-24.6 × 11.1-17.5 μm, evanescent, 8-spored; ascospores subglobose to broadly ellipsoidal or ellipsoidal, hyaline to yellow, 7.3-9.4 × 6.2-8.3 μm, with punctate surface overall, transverse section exhibiting radiate striations.
Conidiophores and conidia: conidiophores on MEA borne from superficial or aerial mycelium; stipes septate or aseptate, smooth walled, 16.0-1190 × 2.4-8.0 μm; penicilli mostly biverticillate, often irregular or rarely monoverticillate with vesiculate apex, up to 9.5 μm wide; metulae in verticils of (2)3-8, smooth; 7.5-19.1 × 2.8-6.4 μm; phialides appressed, in verticils of 3-12, ampulliform or occasionally acerose, smooth, 7.1-19.8 × 2.4-5.0 μm, collula abruptly tapering, short sometimes long, with a length of 0.8-8.7 μm; conidia mostly ellipsoidal, rarely pyriform, 2.5-6.0 × 1.6-5.6 μm, smooth walled, borne in disordered chains. |
