Acrogenospora gigantospora S. Hughes 1978
Conidiophores produced singly or in groups of 2-4, erect, straight or flexuous, black and opaque for much of their length and brown to dark brown above; only the upper transverse septa can be seen. They are up to 700um lone, 9-14.5um wide just above the has, which may be swollen up to 20um wide. Conidiophores taper to 5.8-7.2um wide at the apex which can bear up to 11 percurrent proliferations.
Conidia broadly obovoid at first, finally broadly obovoid to spherical; they are translucent when young thus permitting the hyaline, thick (up to 9um) inner wall to be seen, but at maturity the outer wall (c. 0.5-0.7um thick) is dark brown to black and opaque. The basal scar is flattened, 5.8-7.2um wide, on a slight pojection, and bears a short fringe of outer wall. Conidia measure 25-55 X 21-49.5um mostly 31-47 X 28-40um
