They are saprobic on leaf litter, including the leaves of ''Eucalyptus grandis'' and ''Eucalyptus camaldulensis'' in tropical and terrestrial habitats. History Silveira and co-workers (in Crous et al. 1994) erected the new anamorph genus ''Falcocladium'' , with ''Falcocladium multivesiculatum'' , which was isolated from Eucalyptus leaf litter collected in Brazil, as the type species. It was later compared to other Brazilian found genera; '' Cylindrodendrum'', '' Pulvinotrichum'' and '' Unicegra'' which also had similar characteristics but due to the falcate (sickle-shaped) conidia. It was declared as a new genera. Etymology; it was named as ''Falcocladium'', after its falcate shaped conidia. The ''Falcocladium'' genus was characterized by having thick-walled, non septate (non-walled) stipe extensions that terminate ...
