| Source | Opera Bot. Vol 101. |
| Illustrations | Line drawings and half-tone SEMicrographs |
| Review (by Malcolm Storey) | A detailed taxonomic account of the eye-lash fungi of the World. The first half of the work is a cladistic analysis. This is followed by the key to species (p52) based mainly on ascospore characters, then the individual species accounts. |
| Examine |  with a Microscope using 100x oil-immersion ( Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) is also useful) |
| Specimen Preparation | Sections or squashes in water, Cotton blue, and/or Melzer’s reagent. |
| Identification difficulty | A tricky group. Identification is largely based on spore ornamentation and excellent microscope optics are needed to correctly interpret this. |
