Bactrodesmium nothofagi J.A. Cooper 2005

Colonies sporodochial, scattered, punctiform. Conidiophores semi-micronematous, pale brown, up to 40 × 4 µm, arising from dark brown geniculate hyphae within the substratum. Conidiogenesis terminal, monoblastic, schizolytic. Conidia obovoid to pyriform, brown with faint lumen and proximal cells paler, 47–55 × 18–25 µm, narrowing to 2.5–3 µm at the base, 5–8-septate, slightly oblique scar with small frill from secession.
Coloniae sporodochiales, sparsae, punctiformes. Conidiophora semi-micronematosa, pallide brunnea, usque 40 × 4 µm, ex hyphis atrobrunneis, geniculatis, in matrice immersis orientia. Evolutio conidiorum terminalis, monoblastica, schizolytica. Conidia obovoidea vel pyriformia, brunnea sed cellulis proximalibus pallidioribus, quaeque cellularum lumine tenuo, 47–55 × 18–25 µm, versus basin 2.5–3 µm attenuata, 5–8 septata, cicatrice leniter obliqua, segmentulum post successionem remanentem.
For reviews and descriptions of relevant species of Bactrodesmium see Ellis (1959), Hughes & White (1983, 1984), and Révay (1993). Most species with a similar morphology have much narrower conidia: B. rahmii M.B.Ellis (11–15 µm), B. traversianum (Peyronel) M.B.Ellis (8–12 µm), B. pluriseptatum Révay (11–14 µm), B. biformatum (Höhn.) S.Hughes (7–9.5 µm); B. spilomeum (Berk. & Broome) E.W.Mason & S.Hughes has fewer septa with central pores.
