Myzocytium microsporum (Karling) Sparrow 1960

It is not certain that this is the correct identification of the New Zealand species, and although it resembles M. microsporum, from Brazil it exhibits some noteworthy differences. In the first place it occurred in pollen grains and was not found in rotifers which were present in the same culture. Secondly, its zoospores and oospores are slightly smaller, and its oosporic thalli are sometimes 4-celled. Possibly, it might be considered as a variety of M. microsporum.
