Abstract

Two unusual species of Acremonium sect. Acremonium, A. borodinense sp. nov. and A. cavaraeanum, are described and illustrated. They were isolated in Japan from rhizosphere soil of sugarcane and an outer wall of a wooden house respectively. A. borodinense is characterized by forming two kinds of conidia, ellipsoidal rough-walled and cylindrical smooth-walled. Of A. cavaraeanum a second isolate has become available; it forms long chains of fusiform conidia, has a luteous reverse and exudes a livid-red pigment into the medium.
