The authors describe and illustrate new genus, Anasporidesmiella , typified by Sporidesmiella angustobasilaris [≡ A. angustobasilaris , comb. nov.], and a new species, A. manifesta . Anasporidesmiella is characterized by macronematous mononematous brown conidiophores frequently reduced to monoblastic determinate conidiogenous cells and solitary cylindrical distoseptate brown conidia with truncated or rounded bases. Anasporidesmiella manifesta is distinguished by cylindrical 7–12-distoseptate reddish-brown conidia with rounded basal cells. Several illustrations of conidiogenous cells and conidia of the Sporidesmiella species complement the discussion of the new genus.
