Sexual morph: Unknown. Asexual morph: Hyphomyceteous. Colonies slow growing, compact, centrally heaped or cerebriform, marginally flat, slightly velvety, black; on acidic medium powdery, moderate olive green, marginally strong greenish yellow. Mycelium composed of septate, branched colorless or pale brown hyphae, forming conidia by fragmentation.
