Falcocladii sphaeropedunculati similis, sed conidiis majoribus, (19-)20-23(-24) x 1.5(-2) µm.
Original description
Conidiophores penicillate, synnematal or sporodochial (especially in older cultures), arising from superficial mycelium or microsclerotia; stipe extensions hyaline, numerous, aseptate, thick-walled, 30-40(-70) x 1.5-2 µm, arising from various positions in the conidiophore, terminating in sphaeropedunculate vesicles, 6-7 µm diam. Conidiophore branches: primary branches hyaline, smooth, subcylindrical, 0-1-septate, 5-10 x 2-3 µm; secondary and tertiary branches hyaline, aseptate, 7-10 x 2-3 µm. Conidiogenous cells phialidic, in clusters of 2-6, ampulliform with elongated necks and periclinal thickening, 8-12 x 2-3 µm. Conidia hyaline, smooth, aseptate, falcate with a short, acute, thick-walled apical beak, and a basal appendage, (19-)20-23(-24) x 1.5(-2) µm; basal appendages on inner, shorter curve, 2-3 µm long, terminating in a rounded end; apical beak continuous with conidium body, 1.5-2 µm long.
