ABSTRACT	A species of Aphanocladium was isolated from rotten bark in Kuohsing, Nantou, Taiwan. Its distinguishing characteristics are slender, acicular phialide-like conidiogenous cells and solitary, large, smooth, hyaline conidia. As these morphological characteristics differ from all other known species in the genus, this isolate can be recognized as a new species, Aphanocladium macrosporum J.L. Chen, W.S. Lin and S.S. Tzean.
