Supplementary notes to the biology of Cordyceps entomorrhiza (Dicks. ex Fr.) Link and the morphology of its conidial stages

摘要: <i>Cordyceps entomorrhiza</i> develops on the larvae, pupae and adults on the ground beetles <i>Carabus</i> spp. (<i>Coleoptera, Carabidae</i>) and on the bugs (<i>Heteroptera, Nabidae</i>) ot the genera <i>Himacerus</i> Wolff et <i>Nabis</i> Latr. There are two forms of the conidial sporulation of this fungus with an identical sporogenesis type (<i>Phialosporae</i>) but different as to the arrangement of sporogenous cells (<i>Tilachiadtopsis</i> and <i>Hymenostilbe</i>-like) The names <i>Tilachlidiopsis hippotrichoides</i> (Lindau) Keisler and <i>T. nigra</i> Yakushiji et Kumazawa should be treated as synonymous; they refer to the conidial stage of <i>C. entomorrhiza, Hirsutella dla eleutheratorum</i> (Nees ex Fr.) Petch — contrary to the hitherto existing notion — is not connected with the above mentioned fungus. It constitutes a separate species, close to or identical with <i>H. entomophila</i> Pat.
