Abstract
Conidophore morphology, conidium ontogeny and cultural characteristics of the pecan scab fungus were studied to establish its generic position. Extensive catenulate, dendritic conidial chains and multidenticulate conidiogenous ramoconidia are characteristic of the pecan scab fungus. The transfer of Fusciadium effusum to the genus Cladosporium as well as C. caryigenum comb. nov. is proposed.
