28 °C, and no growth above 30 °C. Colonies with irregular edges, due to sporangiophore movement and subsequent germination of sporangiophores to form satellite colonies. Colonies initially white, becoming pale grey from the middle outwards with age as asexual sporulation occurs, while from the reverse side colonies have greyish yellow pigmentation that fades over time. Sporangiophore height up to
from the surface; sporangiophores unbranched. Sporangiophores spherical, acquiring a dark-brown pigmentation, with pigmented forms continuing through a developmental range of diameters (29.7–45.6 µm), as an average 36.7 µm. Sporangiophore hyphal width average 5.0 µm (range 4.1–6.2 µm). Columellae with a distinct pigmented collar at their base. Columellae average width 14.7 µm (range 13.8–16.3 µm) and from collar to tip length an average of 18.3 µm (range 16.3–20.6 µm). Asexual spores are ovoid, hyaline and smooth, length an average of 4.04 µm (3.49–4.47 µm) and width average of 2.34 µm (2.07–2.47 µm). No zygospores observed. Able to grow on D- xylose, D- glucose, D- fructose, D- mannose,
-acetylglucosamine, L- arabitol, xylitol and L- arabinose, and weak growth on D- galactose, as sole carbon sources, with absence of growth on the other carbon sources present in commercial API 50
