Huang &amp; Y. Nie.</p><p>Description.</p><p>Mycelia colorless. Primary conidiophores simple, bearing single primary conidia. Primary conidia forcibly discharged multinucleate, colourless, globose to subglobose, small, less than 22.5 μm . Producing only globose or subglobose replicative conidia, similar to and smaller than primary conidia. Azygospores formed in the middle region of the old hyphal segments. Mature azygospores colourless or yellowish, smooth, without thickening or less thickening (0.5-1.2 μm).</p><p>Notes.</p><p>Azygosporus is strongly supported as monophyletic and is distinguished from other Ancylistaceae lineages by the synapomorphy of azygospore production. Therefore, we classify this lineage as a new genus, named Azygosporus gen. nov. Azygosporus currently contains only two members: C. parvus (= A. parvus) and A. macropapillatus sp. nov. (Fig. 1). Morphologically, Azygosporus is most similar to Microconidiobolus, which forms small primary conidia (less than 22.5 μm) (Table 2). However, the synapomorphy of azygospore production clearly distinguishes Azygosporus from Microconidiobolus and other allied genera of the family.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/3C5FFB86334D5721A5A0AB685C48A3C4	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Mycelia colorless, 3.0-7.5 µm wide, usually unbranched at the colony edge. Primary conidiophores colorless, without widening upward near the tip, unbranched and producing a single conidium, 37.0-150.0 × 5.0-8.5 µm . Primary conidia forcibly discharged, colorless, subglobose, 12.0-19.0 µm wide and 16.5-22.5 µm long, most primary conidia possessed a prominent basal papilla 5.0-10.0 µm wide and 7.5-10.0 µm long. Secondary conidia arising from the primary ones with a similar shape and a smaller size. Resting spores (azygospores) observed after 10 d, and the young spores formed in the middle region of the old hyphal segments. The young spores enlarge gradually to form mature azygpspores with less thickening. Mature azygospores colorless, subglobose 25.0-30.0 × 27.0-34.0 μm with a wall 0.5-1.0 μm thick.</p><p>Notes.</p><p>Morphologically, Azygosporus macropapillatus sp. nov. has conidial dimensions similar to six Conidiobolus s.l. species without capilliconidia and microconidia: C. parvus, M. nodosus, M. paulus, N. kunyushanensis, N. lamprauges, and N. pachyzygosporus (Drechsler 1953, 1957, 1962; Srinivasan and Thirumalachar 1967; Nie et al. 2018, 2021). However, A. macropapillatus sp. nov. produces a prominent basal papilla of primary conidia that differs from other related species (see detailed morphological comparisons in Table 2). A. macropapillatus sp. nov. forms azygospores most closely resembling those of C. parvus (= A. parvus), which is its closest known relative with robust support (100/100/1.00). A. macropapillatus sp. nov. is distinguished from C. parvus (= A. parvus) by its longer primary conidiophore and its prominent basal papilla.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/7B9EC33AB4EA53E4BC06FE4913B082C7	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
