Description

Cryptosporella Sacc., Michelia 1 (no. 1): 30 (1877)

Notes.

Cryptosporella is characterised by aggregated ascomata below the bark surface, with converging necks and ellipsoid to elongated, aseptate or rarely 1 - septate ascospores (Mejía et al. 2008, 2011). Species of this genus are usually distributed in temperate regions as endophytes and occasionally as saprobes and pathogens on hardwood trees, such as Betulaceae, Tiliaceae and Ulmaceae (Barr 1978; Mejía et al. 2011; Fan et al. 2016 b).
