Hypomyces completus (syn. Peckiella completa GRWArnold (1971), English ) is a parasitic hose fungus from the family of the crust ball fungus relatives . The fungus grows on boletus , typically Suillus spraguei in North America, although the type specimen was found on Boletinus oxydabilis in Siberia .

description

The color of its subiculum (a crust-like mycelium ) ranges from initially white to yellow-brown, greenish brown and brown to black, and that of the fruiting body (perithecium) from pale brown to dark brown to black. The spores measure 35-40 by 4-6 µm.

Taxonomy

The species was first described by GRW Arnold in 1971 and classified in the genus Peckiella , which was separated from the genus Hypomyces by Pier Andrea Saccardo to summarize species with unicellular ascospores. In a 1989 revision, Rogerson and Samuels did not accept this genre as valid. They found that "there are variations in characteristics, occasionally in a single perithecium," and reclassified the species as a member of the genus Hypomyces .

The anamorphic of H. completus is Sepedonium brunneum , first described by Charles Horton Peck in 1887 .
