Abstract

Mortierella tsukubaensis sp. nov., isolated from uncultivated soil at Tsukuba, Japan, is described and illustrated as a new homothallic species. Simple, large sporangiophores with terminal, many-spored sporangia, large chlamydospores and naked zygospores are characteristic of M. tsukubaensis. A key of the 13 known homothallic species is provided.
