Arachniotus Aureus

Abstract
SUMMARY Re-isolation of Arachniotus aureus (Eidam) Schroeter is reported and illustrations of this species are given for the first time. This species may be distinguished from other species in the genus since it forms sinuate peridial hyphae; hyaline to pale yellow, echinulate-reticulate ascospores; yellow ascocarps measuring up to 1 mm diam; and large roughened aleuriospores representative of Chrysosporium species.
