Dactylella huisuniana sp. nov., is described and illustrated from decaying leaves. It is characterized by tall, simple, erect, hyaline, septate conidiophores which bear denticulate, terminal or subterminal to lateral conidiogenous cells. The conidiogenous cells elongate and elaborate and become somewhat geniculate or candelabrelloid in age. The conidia are predominantly fusoid, 3-septate, widest at the distal second cell. The organism traps nematodes by adhesive knobs at the apex of erect, flexuous, unicellular pedicels arising from hyphae. The differences between D. huisuniana and D. arcuata, D. asthenopaga, D. drechsleri, D. ellipsospora, D. lysipaga, D. multiformis, Dactylaria candida, D. haptotyla, and D. sclerohypha are briefly discussed.
