2008, P. Karasch (WU www.selleckchem.com/products/srt2104-gsk2245840.html 29485). Ukraine, Carpatirossia, in silvis mixtis virgineis (Abies alba, Picea excelsa, Fagus sylvatica) in valle rivi Berlebas prope vicum Trebušany, alt. 800–1000 m, on bark of Abies alba, Aug. 1937, A. Pilát (syntype W 05672). Notes: Hypocrea subalpina is well characterised by discoid stromata with numerous minute ostiolar

dots occurring on bark of conifers, usually on a white amorphous crust or subiculum, showing a striking colour change from yellow when fresh to rust, orange-brown to brown when dry. A similar colour change is known from stromata of the unrelated H. bavarica. The subiculum, although superficially looking similar to the basidiomycete Exidiopsis calcea, apparently belongs to the Hypocrea. No clamps, basidia or basidiospores have been found in the subicular hyphae. Petrak (1940, p. 262) based his species on H. rufa var. discoidea recognising its uniqueness and giving a detailed description

of the teleomorph. Phylogenetically H. subalpina is located in a subclade of the section Longibrachiatum, albeit not well supported. The formerly unknown AZD8931 supplier Anamorph differs substantially from all known members of that section. It is unique in Trichoderma, differing from all other species by having synchronously branching/bifurcating polyphialides that are similar to those of the genus Polypaecilum G. Sm. The AZD2171 mw latter genus, however, differs in producing brownish, smooth to verruculose, globose conidia in chains; for descriptions see Smith (1961) and de Hoog et al. (2000). Notable are also the formation of large white crystals on CMD and the conspicuous swelling of conidia on CMD; a similar swelling has been detected in T. bavaricum.
