( Fig. 5M View FIGURE 5 )
Material examined: — BRAZIL. Bahia: Piatã, Chapada Diamantina, on submerged leaves of Calophyllum brasiliense ( Calophyllaceae ), 10 November 2013, P. O. Fiuza s.n ( HUEFS 216621).
Conidiophores simple, septate, hyaline 20–45 × 3–4.5 μm. Conidiogenous cells monophialidic, terminal, hyaline. Conidia multicellular (3–9 cells), with oblong cells arranged in a regular or irregular way, 3–4 cells each develop from the basal cell as well as from the top cell; conidia span 15–22 × 14–18 μm, each cell 5.3–7.5 × 4.5–6 μm.
Geographical distribution:— Brazil ( Schoenlein-Crusius et al. 2009); Cuba ( Marvanová & Marvan 1969); France ( Jabiol et al. 2013); India ( Sridhar & Kaveriappa 1992); Italy ( Rodino et al. 2003); Pakistan ( Bareen & Iqbal 1994); Poland ( Czeczuga et al. 2007); Puerto Rico ( Caballero 1983); Sweden ( Nilsson 1964); Venezuela ( Nilsson 1962a).
Notes:— Pyramidospora was erected with P. casuarinae as a type species, and it currently comprises nine species ( Oliveira et al. 2015). Pyramidospora casuarinae is easily distinguished from other species of the genus by conidia having a pyramidal shape, 3–4 cells produced as outgrowths from the original basal cell and from the top cell ( Nilsson 1962a). In Brazil, three species of Pyramidospora were recorded: P. casuarinae from the Atlantic Forest on submerged leaves ( Schoenlein-Crusius et al. 2009), P. robusta C.G. Moreira & Schoenl. -Crus. (2012: 523) from the Atlantic Forest on submerged leaves of Caesalpinia echinata Lam. (1785: 461) and Campomanesia phaea (O. Berg.) Landrum (1984: 241) ( Moreira & Schoenlein-Crusius 2012) and P. quadricellularis M.S. Oliveira, Malosso & R.F. Castañeda-Ruiz (2015: 973) on submerged leaves from the Atlantic Forest ( Oliveira et al. 2015). Pyramidospora casuarinae is a new record to the Caatinga.
