Hoheria glabrata Sprag. & Summerh. Otago : L. McKellar, February 1948, J.M.D. ; Arthur R. Mil¬ford, February 1948. Plagianthus betulinus A. Cunn. Otago, Upper Hollyford Valley, February 1950, J.M.D. (type col.) ; Arthur R. Milford, February 1948.
Perithecia caespitose on an erumpent stroma, up to 1 cm. dia¬meter globose or ovate, 0 - 3-0 - 4mm. tuberculate, orange or latericius, ostiole papillated, often collapsed in dried specimens; perithecial wall 1201, thick, cells 10-15 x 12-22 µm, walls thickened and pigmented, inner cells smaller and rectangular 10-12 x 5-101,, walls lightly pigmented. Asci thin walled, elliptical, clavate ends pointed 140-200 x 18-241, 4-8 spored, uniseriate. Spores one-septate ovate or obovate 22-38 x 10-16,u, striate, lightly pigmented yellow.

Perithecia caespitosa in stromate erumpenti ad 1 cm. diam., globosa vel ovata 0 - 3-0 - 4mm. diam., tubereulata, aurantiaca vel testacea ; ostiolo papillato, pariete perithecii 120,u crasso, cellulis 10-15 x 12-221 µm parietibus densatis et tinctis. Asci parietibus tenuibus, clavati vel elliptiei 140-200 x 18-241cc, 4-8 sporis uniseriatis. Sporae ovatae vel obovatae, uniseptatae 22-38 x 10-16 µm striatae, pallide luteae.
The perithecia are similar to N. balsanae and are arranged on a large pulvinate stroma but the spores are much larger and are biseriately arranged at the apex of the clavate asci.

LOCALITY: Otago, Upper Hollyford Valley.

Perithecia gregarious on an erumptent, prosenchymatous stroma, up to 1 cm diameter, perithecia globose or oval, 0.2-0.3 mm diameter, tuberculate, scarlet or coral coloured, farinaceous with crystals, perithecial wall pseudoparenchymatous, 50 µ thick, cells up to 12 µ diam. walls pigmented and thickened. Asci cylindrical, rarely clavate, truncated, 90-120 x 10-12 µ, 6-8 spored, uniseriate, sometimes biseriate at apex; pseudoparaphyses evanescent. Spores one septate, elliptical or pyriform, ends rounded, 16-24 x 6-10 µ, hyaline or lightly pigmented, striate.
Perithecia gregaria in stromate erumpenti prosenchymato ad 1 cm diam.; globosa vel ovalia 0.2-0.3 mm diam., tuberculata, rubra vel corallina, farinacea, pariete pseudoparenchymato 50 µ crasso, cellulis ad 12 µ diam. parietibus tinctis et densatis. Asci cylindrici raro clavati, truncati 90-120 x 10-12 µ, 6-8 sporis, uniseratis, pseudoparaphysibus evanescentibus. Sporae uniseptatae, ellipticae vel pyriformes, apicibus rotundis 16-24 x 6-10 µ hyalinae vel subtiliter tinctis, striatae.
Collections misdetermined as N. balsanae Speg. by Dingley (1951b) are included under this species.
Type collection: on Hoheria populnea A.Cunn., Auckland, Titirangi, March 1947, J.M.D. (7465).

Asci clavate, 140–200 × 18–24 cm. Ascospores ovate to obovate, 1-septate, 22–38 × 10–16 μm, striate, light yellow. Conidia known in culture only. Macroconidia cylindrical, falcate, 3–5-septate, 36–52 × 5–7 μm, smooth, hyaline, foot cell distinct. Microconidia globose to pyriform, 0-septate, 6–15 × 3–5 μm, smooth, hyaline.
