DIAG in CMA. Coloniae tarde crescentes, atro-fuscae myceliis aeriis sparsis, margine diffuso. Mycelium fere immersum, ex hyphis septatis 2-5 µ crassis, pallide brunneis vel brunneis compositum. Hyphae fertiles ( conidiophora ) dispersae, ex hyphis vegetativis vix dissimiles, inconspicuae, 3-5 µ crassae, leviter constrictae ad septa,pallide brunneae, apice catenis conidiorum singulariter ferentes.Conidia catenis simplicibus, longis, acropetalibus plus minusve persistentibus dispotita, oblonga, 0-2-septata, plerumque 1-septata, septis non crassis non fuscatis,8-14 x 3.5-5 µ in conidiis 1-septis, pallide brunnea. Conidia in hospite oblonga, fere 1-septata,septo non crasso, 7.5-10 x 3.5-5 µ, pallide brunnea, catenis fragilissimis formata. Chlamydosporae characteristicae deficientes.
HAB In ligno putrido; Warbeck Forest, near Murchison, New Zealand; May 23, 1983 (MFC-12455). TYP culture desiccate (CMA).
HAB On rotten wood; Omahuta Forest,New Zealand; May 9, 1983.(MFC-12237).
OBS on the host. Colonies effuse, black, velvety. Mycelium mostly immersed in the substrate. Conidiophores erect, simple, straight, septate, smooth-walled, thick-walled,brown colored,with apical percurrent proliferations. Conidia formed singly and successively, smooth-walled, composed of a basal cell bearing two upward directed unequal arms, light brown, pale brown toward the apices. Conidia in overall length 17-24 µ; the arms 4-6 µ wide at the base, tapering toward the ends, generally unequal, 1-3-septate, slightly constricted at the septa, both apical cells frequently collapsing at fully mature state. On PDA, colonies slow-growing, dark brownish gray,with mostly immersed mycelia. Sterile on various common agar media.

Dead petiole of Rhopalostylis sapida.
DIAG in CMA. Coloniae tarde crescentes, olivaceo-griseae, margine diffusa submersa subhyalina. Mycelium ex hyphis hyalinis vel pallide brunneis non characteristicis compositum. Conidiophora ex hyphis vegetativis lateraiter vel terminaliter oriunda, solitaria, simplicia, septata, 30-210 µ longa, 4.8-8.5 µ crassa,brunnea utrinque pallescentia, apice sympdialiter proliferata inconspicue dentata. Conidia anguste obtriangularia, apice complanata frequenter cornibus brevibus coronata, obscure (0-)2(-4)-septata, 18-37 x 6-9 µ, laevia, subhyalina vel pallide fusca, contento guttulato.
HAB In petiolo mortuo,Rhopalostylis sapida ; Omahuta Forest, New Zealand; May 10, 1983(MFC-12425). TYP cultura desiccata (CMA).
DIAG in CMA. Colonise tarde crescentes, atrofuscae. Hyphae vegetativae ramosae, septatae, pallide brunneae vel brunneae,1.5-5 µ crassae, non characteristicae. Conidiophora solitaria, simplicia, cylindrica, septata, 3-4 µ crassa, spice monoblastica, dein per proliferationes succesivas cylindrice elongascentia, postremo usque ad 70 µ attingentia, irregulariter curva, brunnea, sursum pallidiora. Conidia singula, cylindrica, apice rotundata, basi truancata, 8-28 x 4-5 µ, (1-)2-4(-5)-septata, non crassi-tunicata, pallide brunnea.
MEM This new species is considered to be deviated from typical Sporidesmia. Sporidesmium is a heterogenous assemblage and rearrangement is waited.
HAB In ramo putrido Knightiae excelsae; Omahuta Forest, New Zealand; May 9, 1983(MFC-12386). TYP cultura desiceata(CMA).
DIAG in CMA. Coloniae modice crescentes, brunneo-griseae, margine diffuso. Mycelium ex hyphis ramosis, septatis,1.5-4.5 µ crassis, subhyalinis vel pallide brunneis compositum. Conidiophora inconsipcua, solitaria, erecta, simplicia vel parce ramosa, septata, usque ad 60 µ alta, 2-4 µ crassa, apice sympodialiter prolifera, cicatricibus latis planis ferentia, laevia, pallide vel modice fusca conidia catenis simplicibus vel ramosis acropetalis fragilibus disposita, forma et magnitudine maxime variabilia, cylindrical 12-septata, 8-55 µ longa, 3-5 µ crassa, laevia, pallide brunnea vel brunnea, pallidissime brunnea in conidiis apilalibus.
MEM The present species is close to Stenella triseptata Matsushima, in Mats. Myc.Mem. 3, No.375. In the latter species the terminal conidia of the chains are more or less uniform in shape and typically 3-septate. * Deighton, F.C. 1979. Mycol.Pap.144. ( Stenella spp.] * Yen, Jo-Min et a1.1982.

HAB In ligno putrido, near Hari hari, New Zealand; May 21,1983 (MFC-12458). TYP cultura desiccata (CMA).
Rotten petiole of Rhopalostylis sapida

DIAG in CMA. Coloniae tarde crescentes, brunneo-griseae. Hyphae vegetativae ramosae, septatae, l-4 µm crassae, subhyalinae vel pallide brunneae.

Conidia catenis simplicibus vel ramosis acropetalis disposita, forma et magnitudine maxime variabilia,cylindrica basi conice truncata, l-16-septata, leviter constricta ad septa,12-85  3-4 µm, modice vel pallidissime fusca,cicatricibus conicis leviter fuscatis. Chlamydosporae deficientes. HAB In petiolo putrido, Rhopalostylis sapida; Waipoua forest, New Zealand; May 12,1983 (MFC-12291). TYP culture desiccate (CMA).
