Abstract
A new species ofScopularoipsis described from soil is characterized by the conidiophores, branches, and sporogenous cells being distinctly swollen. The conidia have a well-marked germ slit running more or less longitudinally down the spore. TheScopulariopsis state ofMicroascus doguetii is re-examined and evidence is presented which indicates that the striations on the walls of the spores are germ slits.
