Macroconidia delicate, thin-walled, straight or curved and somewhat dorsi-ventral narrowing at both ends, 3-7-septate; 3-septate 25-36 x 2.5-3,5 μm, 5-septate 30-50 x 2.5-4 μm, 7-septate 40-60 x 3-4 μm. Chlamydospores absent both in mycelium and conidia; dark blue irregularly globose sclerotia frequently formed.
