Notes. Dictyocheirospora musae is morphologically similar to Di. hydei in having non-complanate, cylindrical conidia with globose to subglobose appendages. However, Dictyocheirospora musae differs in having appendages in the middle cells while Di. hydei has appendages on the basal cells (Photita et al. 2002, Prasher and Verma 2015).
