48EB7EF01DD2585EB3182928F954C490.taxon	description	Description. Colonies on Potato dextrose agar (PDA) reaching 51 mm diam. after 7 d at 25 ° C, circular with concentric zonation of the growth, cottony with dense hyphae, dark green, reverse dark brown, with a white halo at the edge. Minimum temperature for growth 5 ° C, optimum 25 ° C, maximum 37 ° C. On PDA media (Fig. 4), conidiophores arising directly from lateral of aerial hyphae, straight or curved, geniculate sympodial proliferation, verruculose thick-walled, with up to 12 – septate, unbranched or with up to three branches, light to dark brown; Conidia solitary, ovoid to subcylindrical, (11.4 –) 15.3 – 17.7 (– 24.1) × (7.7 –) 9.9 – 10.9 (– 12.9) μm (av. 16.5 ± 3.4 × 10.4 ± 1.4), light brown to dark, rigid, and thickened transverse septa, 1 – 3 transverse septa, and 0 – 1 longitudinal or oblique septa per transverse segment; these primary conidia produce secondary conidiophores that consist of a subapical extension from the conidial body. Sexual morph not observed.	en	Djellid, Youssef, Mahamedi, Alla Eddine, Spetik, Milan, Hakalová, Eliska, Eichmeier, Ales, Gonçalves, Micael Ferreira Mota, Lamghari, Fouad, Al Hmoudi, Maryam Ali Saeed Mohamed, Berraf-Tebbal, Akila (2025): Alternaria phoenicis sp. nov. and Alternaria ouedrighensis sp. nov.
