The new species, Chalara lichenicola , is characterized by its diminutive, pale brown, 20–47 pm long phialophores arising without any superficial mycelium from the basal parts of the podetium of the lichen Cladonia gracilis as well as from the immature basidiomata of a Tremella sp., likewise parasit...

| Summary: | The new species, Chalara lichenicola , is characterized by its diminutive, pale brown, 20–47 pm long phialophores arising without any superficial mycelium from the basal parts of the podetium of the lichen Cladonia gracilis as well as from the immature basidiomata of a Tremella sp., likewise parasitic (or saprophytic?) on the same podetia. The phialoconidia are hyaline, unicellular, cylindrical with truncate ends. 2.54.0 × 0.5–0.8 Bunim. It is the first lichenicolous hyphomycete to be included in the form‐genus Chalara . |
