Description :— Mycelium brown,hyphae septate, branched,5–12 µm wide. Ascomata perithecial,slightly immersed to erumpent, (75–) 150–225 (–300) µm (n= 57) in diam., solitary, ... : Published as part of Mattoo, Aroosa Jan, Ghosh, Aniket & Nonzom, Skarma, 2023, Comoclathris acuminata (Pleosporaceae, Pleosporales): A new endophytic species from Indian Himalayas, pp. 230-244 in Phytotaxa 589 (3) on pages 236-237, DOI: 10.11646/phytotaxa.589.3.2, http://zenodo.org/record/7776932 ...
