conidiophores. Hohnel established a second spe¬ 
cies, T. coccicola, based on the conidial stage of 
Ophionectria coccicola (Ell. & Ev.) Berl. & 
Vogl. as described and illustrated by Zimmer- 
mann (1901:874). In this species the three 
arms are very long, up to 240/x according to 
Zimmermann, and at right angles to each other. 
Seaver (1909: 198) describes the conidia of the 
same species, using the name Scoleconectria coc¬ 
cicola (Ell. & Ev.) Seaver, as having three to 
five arms, each up to 150/* long. It is certainly 
distinct from the Galapagos fungus. 
The species was readily secured in pure cul¬ 
ture. It grows rather slowly and fruits sparsely 
on most of the ordinary culture media, but 
forms good sporodochia on weak malt-extract 
agar and on agars prepared from soil-grass de¬ 
coction and dung decoction.
