Tk. Goh et Kd. Hyde, CRYPTOPHIALE MULTISEPTATA, SP-NOV FROM SUBMERGED WOOD IN AUSTRALIA, AND KEYS TO THE GENUS, Mycological research, 100, 1996, pp. 999-1004
Cryptophiale multiseptata sp. nov. occurring on submerged wood in Nort
h Queensland, Australia is described and illustrated with light and sc
anning electron micrographs. It differs from previously described spec
