Description
Herpomyces stylopygae Speg.
MB#232081
Fig. 1C
Anales del Museo Nacional de Historia Natural de Buenos Aires 29: 551 (Spegazzini 1917). –
Type: [Not designated] [Ind. loc.] “Común sobre las antenas de la cucaracha casera, Periplaneta (stylopyga) orientalis en Montevideo, May. 1914, en Buenos Aires y La Plata, por los años 1914–16”; LPS.
Diagnostic features
Shield bilobate and strongly asymmetric, the basal area ± darkened (Fig. 1C, sh). Perithecial neck bent, terminating in a pointed, subacute lateral tip, and a distal acute tooth-like outgrowth (Fig. 1C, arrow). [Detailed descriptions: Tavares 1966; De Kesel 2001; Santamaria 2003]
Distribution and hosts
Often confused with H. periplanetae in old literature. This species grows on Blatta orientalis (Blattodea, Blattidae) and has been reported (sometimes as H. periplanetae) from Europe (Spain, Belgium, Poland, Hungary, France), Africa (Algeria), America (USA, Bermuda Islands?, Brazil?, Panama, Mexico, Uruguay, Argentina), Asia (China, India, Korea) (Santamaria et al. 1991; Majewski 2008; Haelewaters et al. 2015a). Recently reported from Bulgaria (Rossi et al. 2019a).
