Abstract

Monacroporium ullum sp. nov. the captures nematodes on adhesive spherical knobs was isolated from soil around Codonopsis lanceolata at Ulleung island, Korea. The spindle-shaped conidia sized $17-44{\mu}m\;(26.5{\mu}m)\;long,\;7-10{\mu}m\;(8.1{\mu}m)$ wide, containing from 1 to 4 cross-walls but most often divided by 2 septa (47%). Resting bodies sized $57{\times}30{\mu}m$. Arthrobotrys amerospora has almost spherical non-septate conidia with a small truncate protuberance at the base and sized $20-27{\mu}m\;(23.3){\mu}m$ long and $11-17{\mu}m\;(14.1){\mu}m$ wide. Conidiophores are somewhat longer $362.8{\mu}m\;(311-418{\mu}m)$ than its original description ($75-250{\mu}m$).
