Asexual morph:— Colonies cultured on PDA medium at 25 °C for 14 days, reached a diameter of 5.0– 5.2 cm. The colony surface white, circular, cotton-like with a centrally convex area; reverse side with alternating brown and yellow pigmentation, forming a ring pattern. Hyphae hyaline, unbranched, smooth-walled, 1–1.8 µm wide. Phialides predominantly solitary along the hyphae, occasionally in whorls, 1.9–45.1 µm long, 0.7–1.9 µm wide, with an inflated oval base (0.7–2.1 µm wide) that narrows gradually or abruptly into a curved neck (0.5–1.2 µm wide). Conidia smooth-walled, transparent, round to oval or rod-like, 1.1–1.9 µm long and 0.8–1.6 µm wide, mostly aggregated at apex of the phialides, sometimes single.</p><p>Host:— Phycosoma sp.</p><p>Distribution: CHINA. Yunnan Province: Jinping Miao Yao Dai Autonomous County, Honghe Hani and Yi Autonomous Prefecture.</p><p>Notes:— Based on the phylogenetic analysis, T. phycosomatis and T. ovalisporum were identified as sister species. Notably, the conidia of T. phycosomatis (1.1–1.9 × 0.76–1.6 μm) were significantly smaller compared to those of T. ovalisporum (4.5–9 × 2.5–3.5 μm). Additionally, the conidia of T. phycosomatis tend to aggregate at the apex of the phialides. Furthermore, T. phycosomatis was associated with spider hosts, whereas T. ovalisporum is found in a lichen (Table 2).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/472D879EFFBD6306FF1EA00EFF44FD6C	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
