Family: CladosporiaceaeGenus: Cladosporium
SUMMARY
Anamorph: conidiomata absent. Conidiophores clearly differentiated from vegetative hyphae, arising in a broad mass from the degraded host fruits; erect, straight to somewhat flexuous, cylindrical to somewhat tapered, with a single apical or sometimes several swellings, rarely branched, 40–60 × 4-5.5 μm; aseptate or remotely septate, brown or olivaceous-brown, sometimes somewhat paler at the apices, smooth, fairly thick-walled. Conidiogenous cells not differentiated from the conidiophores. Conidiogenous loci terminal or lateral, 1-3 per cell, conspicuous, protuberant, (2-) 2.5–3 μm diam, somewhat thickened and darkened-refractive. Conidia in chains, branching not observed, mostly 15.5-17.5 x 6.5-8 µm (somewhat smaller when aseptate), cylindrical to cylindric-ellipsoidal, mostly 1-septate but some aseptate or 2-septate, pale brown to olivaceous, fairly thick-walled, the septa thinner, strongly verruculose, the scars often somewhat protruding.
Teleomorph: not known.
