Arthrobotrys obovata sp. nov., a hyaline hyphomycete capturing and con suming nematodes on adhesive networks recovered from forest soil, is d escribed. It is characterized by single or branched, erect, hyaline, s eptate conidiophores, with denticle nodes on conidiophores which bear 5-15 obovoid, 1-septate conidia in loose capitate arrangement. The dif ferences between A. obovata, and A. cystosporia, A. perpasta are tabul ated and illustrated.
