Abstract
Ceratostomella radicicola, the perfect stage of Chalaropsis, was described by Bliss (1) as a new species. The imperfect stage is char? acterized by the production of two types of conidia: the hyaline endoconidia produced in endoconidiophores, and the dark, thick-walled macroconidia (macrospores) described by some mycologists as chlamy? dospores. The number of macroconidia differs from one medium to another, and the thallus color ranges from gray to black with increasing numbers of macroconidia. On potato-dextrose-yeast medium macro? conidia are produced abundantly; hence the culture is black.
