Nomura Y., Taxonomical study of Erysiphaceae of Japan. - 1-281 [208-209]. Tokyo (1997).

Ecology: Biotroph; phytopathogenic; growing on leaves, epiphyllous. Host or Phorophyte Taxonomy: Nelumbo nucifera Gaertn.; Nelumbo, Nelumbonaceae.

Reproduction Strategy: With sexual (and possible asexual) stages. Ascocarps: Cleistothecioid (fusco-brunnea), orbicular (globosa vel spheroidea), scattered or in loose groups, .078-.138 mm in diam.. Margin: External filaments present; mycelioid, straight, 62-450 µm long, (2.5)-5-7.5-(10) µm in diameter, hyaline or pigmented (prope basim sub-brunneae), growing at the ascocarp base, flexuose (curvatae, interdum ad medium magne curvatae, interdum basim versus undulatae), not ramified or ramified (ramulis brevibus protuberationi similibus), aseptate or septate ((0-)1-7-septatae).

Asci: 2-6 asci per ascocarp, not stipitate or indistinctly stipitate, 38-68 µm long, 26-63 µm wide; dehiscence unitunicate.

Ascospores: 1–2 to c. 8 per ascus, spores 2-5 per ascus, ellipsoid or ovoid, (13)-17.5-35 µm long, (7.8)-10-17.5 µm wide; septa absent.

Conidiophores: Pseudoidium-type; not branched (recta, 1-septata, basim versus leviter dilatata); conidiophore cells 80-115 µm long, basal cells 50-80 µm long, 7-10 µm wide. Conidium Formation: Conidiogenous cells single. Conidia: Ellipsoid or ovoid; macroconidial, not branched, 35-46 µm long, 15-22 µm wide; aseptate.
