colony morphology after 7 days growth at 20 °C on carrot agar, potato-dextrose agar, malt extract agar, and V8 agar (from left to right)
papillate to semi-papillate often bipapillate persistent sporangia; scale bar = 25µm
oogonia with smooth walls and amphigynous, often digitate antheridia; oospores predominately plerotic, but can be slightly aplerotic, often aborted after the formation of the oospore walls; scale bar = 25µm
