W.J. 2714 (combined with WU 29300, culture C.P.K. 1901). Notes: Hypocrea neorufoides is closely related to H. neorufa. The teleomorphs of these species are indistinguishable. H. neorufoides is widespread in Europe and more common than H. neorufa, particularly in southern England and eastern Austria. Morphologically these species establish an intermediate position between Trichoderma sect. Trichoderma and the pachybasium core group,

deviating from other species of the first section in more distinct surface cells and in a yellow perithecial wall, and in thick, i.e. pachybasium-like conidiophores. Contrary to H. neorufa the conidiation in T. neorufoides develops continuously from effuse and verticillium-like to a pachybasium-like shrub conidiation without statistically significant differences in the sizes of phialides and conidia. Nevertheless, both measurements are given in order to highlight the differences to H. neorufa. Additional Enzalutamide differences from H. neorufa are a lower growth optimum, particularly on SNA and PDA, a different macroscopic growth pattern on PDA, larger and more variable conidia and slightly longer phialides. The pigmentation of the reverse on PDA is distinctly less pronounced Cobimetinib than in H. neorufa. The shrub conidiation of H. neorufoides on CMD often disappears after several transfers and only simple effuse conidiation remains. Hypocrea ochroleuca Berk. & Ravenel, Grevillea 4: 14 (1875).
