SUMMARY
Anamorph: conidiomata pycnidia, 100-180 µm diam. and 80-150 µm tall, ± immersed in whitish necrotic patches of the upper surface of the host thallus, singly or in small clusters especially at the thallus edge, depressed globose to ovoid, dark brown to black, the ostiole slightly papillate but usually not extending beyond the host cortex. Wall 7-10 µm thick, 1-3 cells thick, the outer cells thick-walled, dark brown, 6-11 x 3-6 µm in size, the inner cells paler and thin-walled. Conidiophores absent. Paraphyses developing between the conidiogenous cells, 23-30 µm long and 1.5-2 µm thick, 0- to 2-septate. Conidiogenous cells lining the cavity, 3-4 x 2.5-3 µm, hyaline. Conidia 17-22 x 3-3.5 µm, initially formed inside a sheath, subcylindrical, straight or slightly curved, hyaline, 1-septate, not constricted at the septum, smooth, the apex rounded, the base obtuse with a minute apiculus which bears 2-3 flexuous divergent cellular appendages 16-18 µm long.
