CYAS: Colonies slightly sunken in center, radial sulcate, margin entire; sporulation dense; mycelium white; colony texture velvety; exudates present as hyaline droplets; soluble pigments absent; conidia en masse grayish green (26 D 5); reverse pale yellow (3 A 3). MEA: Colonies low, radial sulcate, margin entire; sporulation dense; mycelium white; colony texture velvety; exudates present as hyaline droplets; soluble pigments absent; conidia en masse grayish green (27 E 5); reverse grayish yellow (4 B 6). YES: Colonies sunken in center, radial sulcate, margin nearly entire; sporulation dense; mycelium white; colony texture velvety; exudates absent; soluble pigments absent conidia en masse grayish green (26 D 5) to dull green (26 E 4); reverse pale yellow (3 A 3). DG 18: Colonies slightly raised in center, radial sulcate, margin entire; sporulation dense; mycelium white; colony texture velvety; exudates absent; soluble pigments absent; conidia en masse grayish green (26 D 6); exudates absent; soluble pigments absent; reverse pale yellow (1 A 3). OA: Colonies plane, margin entire; mycelium white; colony texture velvety; sporulation dense; conidia en masse grayish green (27 D 5). exudates present as hyaline droplets; soluble pigments absent. CREA: poor growth, acid production absent, base formation absent.</p><p>Micromorphology.</p><p>Conidiophores biverticillate; stipes smooth-walled or finely roughened, 130–325 × 2–4 µm; metulae cylindrical, 9.5–13 × 2.5–4.5 µm; phialides flask shaped, 3–8 per metulae, 8.5–12.5 × 2.5–3.5 µm; conidia in long, distorted chains, smooth, broadly ellipsoidal, 3–4 × 2.5–3.5 µm.</p><p>Additional specimens examined.</p><p>Australia • Queensland, Barrine, near lake Cratez, isolated from soil, CBS 127361 = DTO 030–A 6 = IBT 29070 ; China • Tibet, Zunyi Area, Meti Country, isolated from soil, MT 3 F-102 .</p><p>Note.</p><p>This species is both morphologically and phylogenetically related to P. paxilli . However, P. subluteum has a pale yellow reverse on CYA and DG 18, in contrast to the pale reverse observed in P. paxilli (Houbraken et al. 2011) . Pairwise nucleotide differences between the type strains of the two species include 10 nucleotides in ITS, 19 bp in BenA, 26 bp in CaM, and 30 bp in RPB 2.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/3D100DCB60C654B1AD60D102754B86EB	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
