  • Title: A human isolate of Exophiala (Wangiella) dermatitidis forming a catenate synanamorph that links the genera Exophiala and Cladophialophora.

    Journal: J Med Vet Mycol; 1995; 33(5):355-8. PubMed ID: 8544089.
    Abstract:
    A strain of the black yeast Exophiala dermatitidis displayed a hydrophobic synanamorph consisting of acropetal chains of lemon-shaped conidia, morphologically similar to those of Cladophialophora bantiana. The occurrence of the two conidial types in a single strain suggests a taxonomic affinity between Exophiala and Cladophialophora and provides support to the supposition that Cladophialophora, a possible anamorph genus of Herpotrichiellaceae, is related to black yeasts rather than to Cladosporium, which has teleomorphs in the Mycosphaerellaceae.
