B. ornatus
I.I.Tav.
Brief description
Monoecious. Receptacle multicelled, consisting of a lower uniseriate row of superposed cells and an upper, usually three-celled, region where the lowermost cell supports two parallel cells (
Fig. 23C
, *). Antheridia simple, sessile (
Fig. 23C
, an) or clustered on short branchlets. Perithecial outer wall consisting of unequal cells arranged in two vertical rows with three cells, and two vertical rows with four cells.
Remarks
The genus consists of two species, the
type
and
B. heteroceri
, which is the only species in Europe. The genus
Botryandromyces
was segregated from
Misgomyces
because (1) the different number of perithecial wall cells for each row, four cells in all of the four rows in
Misgomyces
, two rows with four cells and two rows with three cells in
Botryandromyces
; and (2) the structure of antheridia, simple in
Botryandromyces
, compound in
Misgomyces
. Nevertheless this latter character has been questioned by
Rossi
et al.
(2019a)
(see above under
Misgomyces
).
