Abstract

Optical and scanning electron microscopy revealed that Entomophthora myrmecophaga Turian & Wuest (1969), parasitizing the ant Serviformica fusca L., presents the differential characters of the genus Zoophthora, namely uninucleate, double-walled conidia, sparingly branched conidiophores and fixation rhizoids. The species is therefore transferred to this genus.
