Description
Summary:Chytriomyces multioperculatus Sparrow and Dogma is a new record of Taiwan. It was isolated from water of a pond, and pure cultured on 1/4YpSs medium. The mature zoosporangium produced numerous operculate discharge papillae. The opercula either separated from or remained attached to the rim of the exit orifices. The zoospore ultrastructure of C. multioperculatus is similar to the zoospore characteristic of Lobulomyces (Lobulomycetales).
