The new species, Chalara lichenicola, is characterized by its diminutive, pale brown,
20-47 pm long phialophores arising without any superficial mycelium from the basal
parts of the podetium of the lichen Cladonia gracilis as well as from the immature
basidiomata of a Tremella sp., likewise parasitic (or saprophytic?) on the same
podetia. The phialoconidia are hyaline, unicellular, cylindrical with truncate ends.
2 . 5 4 . 0 X 0.5-0.8 pm. It is the first lichenicolous hyphomycete to be included in the
form-genus Chalara.
