Abstract

Rotiferophthora ellipsospora and R. japonica spp. nov., are described as endoparasites of bdelloid rotifers, forming large dictyochlamydospores and small infection conidia. Verticillium bactrosporum was found in association with a new host species of bdelloid rotifer and was cultured for the first time: resting spores were formed in culture.
