Description: Chlamydospores broadly ellipsoid, equilaterally one-celled, yellow, 72 × 57 μm, smooth, slightly thin-walled, with hypha-like attachment/appendix. This morphotype probably belongs to the mycorrhizal fungi, and may represent Glomus or a related tropical genus. It differs from the common Glomus chlamydospores by its distinctly ellipsoid shape and thinner wall.
