Typification
Type: MEXICO, Toluca, on leaves of Ipomoea longipedunculata (Convolvulaceae), 1999, W.G. Flier & N.J. Grünwald (holotype CBS H-21401)
Ex-type: CBS 109229 = PIC 99169 = MUCL 30219
Sequences for ex-type in original manuscript: CBS 109229 = ITS rDNA KF777191 and LSU KF777242 (provided by Nik Grunwald to G. Abad on 1.15.14 and not included in the 2013 Persoonia publication)
Sequence ITS rDNA AY770742 in the 2013 Persoonia publication is for selected specimen PIC 99165, not for the type PIC 99169.

Colonies and cardinal temperatures
Species grows well on rye A agar (RA), cherry decoction agar (CA), potato dextrose agar (PDA), and oatmeal agar (OA). Growth inhibition is observed on V-8 Agar (V8). Minimum growth at approximately 11°C, optimum at 20°C, and maximum at 25°C.
Asexual phase
SporangiaSporangia:
sac within which zoospores form, especially when water is cooled to about 10°C below ambient temperature; in solid substrates, sporangia usually germinate by germ tubes
semipapillatesemipapillate:
pertaining to the production of shallow having papilla that are not well developed, shallow and less nipple-like than fully papillate structures
; caducouscaducous:
pertaining to sporangia that become dislodged readily (i.e. deciduous) and separate from the sporangiophore (cf. persistent)
with short pedicelpedicel:
the hyphal base of a sporangium that remains attached after the sporangium separates, or is shed, from the sporangiophore; the pedicel may be short (< 5 µm), medium (5–20 µm), or long (> 20 µm)
; ellipsoidellipsoid:
refers to a solid body that forms an ellipse in the longitudinal plane and a circle in cross section; many fungal spores are ellipsoidal or elliptic
, or obovoidobovoid:
inversely egg-shaped; ovoid, but with the widest part at the apex
(35–47.5 µm length); originated in compound sympodial and intermediate sporangiophoresporangiophore:
the hyphal strand on which the sporangium is formed; may be branched or unbranched to form compound sympodia or simple sympodia
branches, with swellings where sporangiasporangia:
sac within which zoospores form, especially when water is cooled to about 10°C below ambient temperature; in solid substrates, sporangia usually germinate by germ tubes
emerge. ChlamydosporesChlamydospores:
an asexual spore with a thickened inner wall that is delimited from the mycelium by a septum; may be terminal or intercalary, and survives for long periods in soil
absent.
Sexual phase
Homothallichomothallic:
pertaining to sexual reproduction that can take place within a single thallus (i.e. self-fertile, non-outcrossing) (cf. heterothallic).
. OogoniaOogonia:
the female gametangium in which the oospore forms after fertilization by the antheridium
smooth-walled, globoseglobose:
having a rounded form resembling that of a sphere
(32.5 µm diam.), frequently with tapered basetapered base:
pertaining to the base of a sporangium or oogonium; funnel-shaped
; antheridiaantheridia:
the male gametangium; a multinucleate, swollen hyphal tip affixed firmly to the wall of the female gametangium (the oogonium)
amphigynousamphigynous:
pertaining to the sexual stage in which the antheridium completely surrounds the stalk of the oogonium (cf. paragynous)
; oosporesoospores:
zygote or thick-walled spore that forms within the oogonium after fertilization by the antheridium; may be long-lived
pleroticplerotic:
pertaining to an oospore that fills the oogonium (cf. aplerotic)
(28.8 µm diam.).
Most typical characters
the presence of typical basal swellings on the sympodial sporangiophores
