Notes. Dictyocheirospora musae is morphologically similar to Di. hydei in having non-complanate, cylindrical conidia with globose to subglobose appendages. However, Dictyocheirospora musae differs in having appendages in the middle cells while Di. hydei has appendages on the basal cells ( Photita et al. 2002, Prasher and Verma 2015).
