Abstract
An ultrastructural study of Wed dellomyces epicallopisma (ascomata wall, as ci, ascospores and vegetative hyphae), the first done on the family Dacampi aceae, confirms most of the observations made in light microscopy. Moreover it shows that ascospores are provided with an endospore (not visible in li ght microscope) and that the structure of the ascospore septum is more comp lex. The similarity of the wall structure between the ascospore and the hyp hoid appendages, developed on the upper part of the ascoma, is emphasized.
