The colony appears fluffy with well-developed aerial hyphae. These hyphae later intertwine to form small aggregates. Initially white, the colony begins to produce light yellow hyphae after 10 days. The reverse side of the colony is pale brownish. After 20 days, brownish block-like spots start to develop on the reverse. By 30 days, deep black, irregular patches form near the bottom of the medium.	en	Bi, Zixian, Wu, Yingying, Li, Shuji, Tian, Chengming (2025): New species and records of ascomycetes on cypress in Beijing, China.

390F9897EEC0583695FD701F6CE3D4FC.taxon	description	Cultural characteristics. On PDA medium, colonies exhibited appressed growth with a sparse, felt-like texture and slow expansion rates, reaching approximately 30 mm in diameter after 7 days of incubation. Aerial mycelium was poorly developed and diffuse. After 2 weeks, a pale yellow pigmentation became visible on the colony reverse.	en	Bi, Zixian, Wu, Yingying, Li, Shuji, Tian, Chengming (2025): New species and records of ascomycetes on cypress in Beijing, China.

947525D1C05A5E799F1A1D02ED1CB410.taxon	description	Description. Isolated from healthy cones of Juniperus chinensis. Sexual morph: Not observed. Asexual morph: Hyphomycetous. On PDA medium, sporulation began after approximately 3 weeks of cultivation. Hyphae were initially colorless and transparent, turning brown at maturity, branched, septate, thick-walled, and smooth, 1.2 – 8.2 µm in diam. Sporodochia were dark brown to black, granular, dense, slightly moist, and 150 – 430 µm in diam. Conidiophore mother cells were subcylindrical, thin-walled, smooth, initially colorless and transparent, later pale brown, 4.3 – 9.9 × 2.5 – 5.2 (x ̄ = 6.6 × 4.1 µm; n = 25) µm. Conidiophores have two types of morphology, Conidiophores of α conidia are upright or curved, light brown or dark brown, unbranched, 13.0 – 78.6 × 1.4 – 3.5 µm (x ̄ = 42.3 × 2.3 µm; n = 30). Conidiophores of β conidia are colorless and transparent at the initial stage and turn light brown to dark brown after maturity, 18.4 – 75.5 × 1.3 – 3.2 µm (x ̄ = 43.7 × 2.4 µm; n = 30). The conidia have two forms: α conidia 18.2 – 28.3 × 15.8 – 24.3 µm (x ̄ = 22.6 × 19.9 µm; n = 50), stellate, 4 - celled, brown to dark brown, each cell globose to subglobose, some cells exhibit verrucose (wart-like) ornamentation and spinose projections (spines) in brown to dark brown, with spine lengths 1.8 – 7.6 µm, septa distinctly constricted. β Conidia 14.3 – 18.6 × 13.4 – 17.8 µm (x ̄ = 16.5 × 15.6 µm; n = 50), trifoliate (clover-shaped), discoid, 4 - celled, each cell slightly subtriangular, lacking spinose projections but with a finely roughened surface, initially hyaline and transparent, maturing to pale brown or dark brown, septa arranged in a near-cruciate (cross-like) pattern, with lighter pigmentation adjacent to septa and distinct constrictions at septal junctions.	en	Bi, Zixian, Wu, Yingying, Li, Shuji, Tian, Chengming (2025): New species and records of ascomycetes on cypress in Beijing, China.

947525D1C05A5E799F1A1D02ED1CB410.taxon	description	Culture characteristics. Cultured on PDA at 25 ° C under dark conditions for approximately 10 days, the colony diameter reaches about 60 mm. The initial colony appears grayish-white, exhibits radial growth, and adheres to the medium with a felt-like texture, displaying denser hyphae near the central region. By day 14, the colony develops concentric rings, the center becomes dark brownish-black, while the margin fades to light grayish-brown, with a regular edge. On the reverse side, the central area is black, transitioning outward to light brownish-black, and finally to light grayish-brown at the outermost edge. After 20 days, dark brown irregularly shaped sporodochia form in both the central and marginal areas of the colony.	en	Bi, Zixian, Wu, Yingying, Li, Shuji, Tian, Chengming (2025): New species and records of ascomycetes on cypress in Beijing, China.
