Colonies on PDA and OA at 25 °C attaining 11–13 mm and 9–11 mm diam respectively after 7 d, white, flat or raised, velvety to slightly cottony. On MEA at 25 °C, reaching 8–10 mm after 7 d, white to yellowish white, raised, slimy. Hyphae hyaline, septate, sometimes winding and inflate, 1.5–11.0 µm wide. Sporulation abundant. Phialides are mostly borne singly, hyaline, erect to slightly curved, sometimes forming a collarette, 9.0–22.0 µm long, tapering from 1.5–3.5 µm near the base to 0.5–1.5 µm. Conidia cohering in long chains, with minutely truncate ends, up to 27.5 µm long, globose or subglobose, 2.5–4.5 × 2.5–4.5 µm (x– ± SD = 3.4 ± 0.77 × 3.6 ± 0.52, n = 50) diam. Chlamydospores and teleomorph stage were not observed.

The phylogeny results showed that the CGMCC 3.20955, GZUIFR 22.037 and GZUIFR 22.038 still nested in the Pinkertoniae-clade. The morphological characteristics of Acremoniumglobosisporum were similar to other species of the Pinkertoniae-clade in that phialides were erect on the hyphae; sporulation was abundant, and conidia were subglobose (Ito et al. 2000). However, Acremoniumglobosisporum hyphae were sometimes winding and inflated, with conidia cohering in long chains, unlike other species.
