Notes on some deuteromycete genera with cheiroid or digitate brown conidia

  • Published:
Proceedings / Indian Academy of Sciences

Abstract

The generic namesChelisporium andCheiroconium are reduced to synonymy withSirothecium and three species are accepted.Cheiromycella is briefly reviewed andCheiromyces is maintained with a single species. Its typification is discussed.Dictyosporium is briefly discussed and a new species,D. australiense, is introduced. The nameD. subramanianii sp. nov. is proposed for the invalidly publishedD. intermedium andD. circinatum is transferred toHelicorhoidion. Digitodesmium is doubtfully kept distinct fromCheiromyces.
