Colonies on PDA, attaining 32 mm in 7 d at 25 °C, white to yellowish, fluffy, ridges in the center, margin irregular; reverse yellowish. Hyphae hyaline, septate, smooth, 1.2–3.3 μm wide. Racquet hyphae absent. Terminal and lateral conidia sessile or on short protrusions or side branches, solitary, hyaline, smooth, single-celled, obpyriform to ellipsoidal, 5–12.5 × 2.5–10 µm (x =7.5 × 5.8, n= 60), basal scars 0.8–1.5 µm wide. Intercalary conidia and chlamydospores absent.

Etymology: – laterisporum (Latin) , referring to the abundant lateral conidia.

Material examined: — The ex-type G310.1 and ex-isotype G310.2 were isolated from the soils of the forest park in November 2014 by Y.F. Han. The ex-type G310.1 culture was dried as the type GZUIFR-G310 . They were deposited in the Institute of Fungus Resource, Guizhou University ( GZAC) .
