Abstract
Dwiroopella, gen. nov. typified byDwiroopella sundara sp. nov. is proposed to accommodate a Coelomycete collected from Karnataka. This is an interesting fungus in which the conidioma is eustromatic, solitary, ostiolate, rostrate, clypeate, partly immersed in the substrate and partly erumpent. Each conidioma produces within it two types of conidium, phialoconidia from simple phialides which proliferate percurrently and gangliar conidia from annellated conidiogenous cells. Both types of conidia are brown and typically two-celled, the phialoconidia may become 3–4-celled.
