The name Ramoconidiifera is proposed for a new genus of hyphomycetes,
with a single species, R. verrucosa. It is characterized by black effu
se sporodochia, macronematous conidiophores, conidiogenous cells with
several percurrent proliferations and branched brown septate cheiroid
conidia in which the apical cells of the arms are verrucose. The genus
is compared with other fungi having similar conidia.
