Fungicolous, colonized on the fruiting body of Panellus sp. Asexual morph: Conidial fructifications developing as loosely floccose masses of white mycelium bearing robust conidiophores with white or yellowish spore masses. Conidiophores hyaline, septate, 40–90 × 2–3 μm (x̅ = 7 × 2.6 μm, n = 10), attenuating to 1.0–2.0 μm (x̅ = 1.5, n = 10). Phialides hyaline, solitary or ralely in 2–5 verticills, 15–25 × 2–3 μm (x̅ = 18 × 2.5 μm, n = 20). Conidia hyaline, broadly ellipsoid, aspetate, 6–8 × 3–5 μm (= 6.5 × 4 μm, n = 30). Sexual morph: Undetermined. (Description from Sun et al. 2019)
