teleomorph In mycology, the terms teleomorph, anamorph, and holomorph apply to portions of the life cycles of fungi in the phyla Ascomycota and Basidiomycota: *Teleomorph: the sexual reproductive stage (morph), typically a fruiting body. *Anamorph: an ase ...

of '' Myceliophthora''. Collectively, the genus is widely distributed, and according to a 2008 estimate, contained 31 species. '' Thielavia heterothallica'' and '' T. terrestris'' can cause infections in humans. The genus name of ''Thielavia'' is in honour of Friedrich Joachim Sigismund von Thielau (1796–1870), who was a German forester and landowner in Breslau.
