Abstract
The development of sclerotia in Colletotrichum atramentarium was observed on cellulose xanthate membranes. The sclerotia were of the ‘strand’ type, i.e. formed by the intertwining of adjacent hyphae. Sclerotial hyphae secreted mucilage into which melanizing particles were deposited. Conidia were extruded through the apex of elongate conidiophores, the inner cell wall of the conidiophore giving rise to the conidial cell wall. The terms ‘enteroblastic’ and ‘phialidic’ are discussed in relation to spore production in this species.
