Abstract
A Cylindrocladium-like hyphomycete was isolated from seeds and leaves of an unknown angiosperm in French Guiana. Based on the sporodochial arrangement of its colorless conidiophores, its multiple stipe extensions that terminate in prominantly curved, verruculose, thick-walled, light brown apical cells, as well as its septate, cylindrical conidia, a new genus, Curvicladium, is proposed to accommodate these collections.
