Corticioid fungi. Saprobes on dead wood.
One or two species reported from New Zealand.
Colonies scattered, glistening, gelatinous crusts, irregular in outline and variable in thickness. Conidiomata sporodochioid with basal stroma. Conidiophores irregularly branched, septate, hyaline, smooth walled. Conidiogenous cells discrete, hyaline, smooth walled. Sterile hyphae arising as branches of the conidiophores, filamentous, aseptate or sparsely septate, for the most part invested in mucus. Conidia holoblastic-solitary, arising excentrically at the apex of the conidiogenous cells, naviculate, unicellular, hyaline, provided with a tapering footlike process at the base; bearing an apical , and usually a basal appendage. Apical appendage infundibuliform with a terete stem, mucoid, adhesive; basal appendage, when present, terete and mucoid, enclosing base of conidium.
TYPE ANAMORPH-SPECIES: Infundibura adhaerens Nag Raj & Kendrick.
