Notes.

Cultures of this species are not available, but it was originally described as producing small asci (18-21 × 7-8 μm) and ascospores (4-6 × 3-4 μm). This species produced ostiolate ascomata without a neck, typical of Microthecium ; however, such small ascospores have never been seen in Microthecium .
