Phyllactinia Philadelphi
''Phyllactinia'' is a genus of fungus, fungi in the family Erysiphaceae. The type species was ''Phyllactinia suffulta'', which is now the synonym for ''Phyllactinia guttata''. Species in this genus are plant pathogens; such as ''Phyllactinia guttata'' causing powdery mildew on hardwood trees (including almonds). Also four ''Phyllactinia'' species are found on Ash trees (''Fraxinus'') species. Species As accepted by Species Fungorum; *''Phyllactinia aceris'' *''Phyllactinia actinidiae'' *''Phyllactinia adesmiae'' *''Phyllactinia aesculi'' *''Phyllactinia alangii'' *''Phyllactinia aleuritis'' *''Phyllactinia alni'' *''Phyllactinia alnicola'' *''Phyllactinia ampelopsidis'' *''Phyllactinia amphipterygii'' *''Phyllactinia ampulliformis'' *''Phyllactinia andrachnes'' *''Phyllactinia angulata'' *''Phyllactinia babayanii'' *''Phyllactinia bauhiniae'' *''Phyllactinia bougainvilleae'' *''Phyllactinia braunii'' *''Phyllactinia brideliae'' *''Phyllactinia broussonetiae-ka ...

Perithecium
An ascocarp, or ascoma (: ascomata), is the fruiting body ( sporocarp) of an ascomycete phylum fungus. It consists of very tightly interwoven hyphae and millions of embedded asci, each of which typically contains four to eight ascospores. Ascocarps are most commonly bowl-shaped (apothecia) but may take on a spherical or flask-like form that has a pore opening to release spores (perithecia) or no opening (cleistothecia). Classification The ascocarp is classified according to its placement (in ways not fundamental to the basic taxonomy). It is called ''epigeous'' if it grows above ground, as with the morels, while underground ascocarps, such as truffles, are termed ''hypogeous''. The structure enclosing the hymenium is divided into the types described below (apothecium, cleistothecium, etc.) and this character ''is'' important for the taxonomic classification of the fungus. Apothecia can be relatively large and fleshy, whereas the others are microscopic—about the size of ...
