UAMH 7122 and UAMH 7211 are morphologically related but phylogenetically distinct from Striatibotrys eucylindrosporus (≡Stachybotrys eucylindrosporus) and Str. rhabdosporus. Hence, UAMH 7122 and UAMH 7211 are described as a new species, Striatibotrys neoeucylindrosporus sp. nov. with UAMH 7211 as the holotype. The characters of this species include some phialides proliferating by holoblastic extension of phialides and conidia clavate, subcylindrical or cylindrical ellipsoid, or dumbbell-shaped, dark brown to olivaceous grey when mature, longitudinally striate, 10.3–12.3×3–3.8 µm. A key to the species of Striatibotrys is provided.", }
