Article: Cooper, J.A. (2005). New Zealand hyphomycete fungi: additional records, new species, and notes on interesting collections. New Zealand Journal of Botany 43(1): 323-349 (http://www.rsnz.org/publish/abstracts.php).
Description: This description applies to the anamorphic Pseudaegerita state. Conidia spherical to irregular 600–900 µm diam. Cells sub-spherical to 5 µm diam. Cells in outer layers hyaline to pale, darkening to grey-brown in inner cortex
Notes: New record from New Zealand. See Abdullah & Webster (1983) and Abdullah et al. (1997) for a detailed discussion of this species. It is distinguished from the similar Pseudaegerita foliicola by the smaller cells and variation in colour of the cells, even in mature material, together with the lignicolous habitat.
