Abstract

A taxonomic review and revision of the dematiaceous hyphomycete genus Acrogenospora is presented. Species in this genus produce acrogenous, solitary, nonseptate conidia from mononematous, simple conidiophores, with multiple percurrent proliferations. Acrogenospora altissima comb. nov. and A. megalospora comb. nov. are proposed for the anamorphic states of two Farlowiella species. A. ovalia and A. subprolata spp. nov. are described from submerged wood in Hong Kong. They differ from other Acrogenospora species in shape, colour, and size of their conidia. A taxonomic key to species in the genus is provided.
