Figure 10

Spore chain still attached to phialide on cylindrical vesicle, showing the relatively early development of the pigmented outer spore wall or sheath (A); Close-up of another conidium with prominent outer sheath (B). Most conidia are older and detached before the pigmentation and separation of the outer wall or sheath become obvious. (C) Escovopsis aspergilloides ex type culture, CBS 423.93: Detached spore chain in various stages of maturation, showing pigmentation and prominent outer walls. Arrows indicate the outer caps. All scale bars = 5 µm.
