Abstract

A new species of euantennariaceous sooty mould, Antennatula katumotoi, is described and illustrated. It has a Hormisciomyces-like synasexual morph and inhabits twigs of the conifer Abies veitchii in Sugenuma (alt. ca. 1719 m), Katashina-mura, Tone-gun, Gunma Prefecture, central Honshu, Japan. The expected Euantennaria-like sexual morph linked to this genus was not seen in the specimen studied. This is the first proof that the genus Antennatula of the family Euantennariaceae also occurs in Japan. In addition, A. katumotoi also occurs with another metacapnodiaceous sooty mould that is composed of characteristic moniliform, barrel-shaped hyphae probably of a Capnobotrys-like asexual morph, but this is a minor inhabitant in the subicula.
