Ecology: Biotroph; phytopathogenic; growing on stems, leaves, or sepals, epiphyllous (the gregarious ascocarps often form dense dark patches on the host leaves) or amphigenous. Host or Phorophyte Taxonomy: Cynoglossum officinale L.; Cynoglossum, Boraginaceae.

Reproduction Strategy: With sexual (and possible asexual) stages. Ascocarps: Cleistothecioid, orbicular, forming independently from the host thallus or mycelium, not emerging (oten, in the dense mycelial layer), in loose groups or gregarious, (.07)-.09-.14-(.155) mm in diam.. Margin: External filaments present; interlaced with each other or interwoven with surrounding mycelium, mycelioid, straight, .5-2-(3) µm long, (3)-4-10-(11) µm in diameter, hyaline or pigmented (later, brown throughout when mature, sometimes only faintly coloured, yellowish), few (rarely) or numerous, growing all across the lower half of the ascocarp, smooth, thin, not ramified or ramified (rarely), irregular, septate.

Asci: 5-20-(30) asci per ascocarp, distinctly stipitate, (45)-50-85 µm long, 20-45 µm wide; dehiscence unitunicate.

Ascospores: 1–2 to c. 4 per ascus, spores 2-(3) per ascus, subglobose, ellipsoid, or ovoid, (15)-18-28 µm long, (10)-12-19.5 µm wide; septa absent.

Conidiomata: Present; hyphomycetous.

Conidiophores: Euoidium-type; not branched; basal cells 50-110 µm long, 10-14 µm wide. Conidium Formation: Conidiogenous cells in chains. Conidia: Ellipsoid, ovoid, or cylindrical; macroconidial (germ tubes arising from an end, short, often twisted), not branched, 25-40 µm long, 15-22 µm wide; aseptate.
