Monodictys arctica, a new hyphomycete from the roots of Saxifraga oppositifolia collected in the Canadian High Arctic

Abstract: Monodictys arctica sp. nov. is described on the basis of nine isolates obtained from the roots of eight separate collections of Saxifraga oppositifolia from Ellesmere Island, Nunavut, Canada. Conidia are multicelled, smooth, darkly pigmented, and globose, oblong, ellipsoidal, or pyriform t...
