Nautosphaeria is a genus of fungi in the family Halosphaeriaceae. [2] This is a monotypic genus, containing the single species Nautosphaeria cristaminuta, which was fund on submerged wood.[1]
The genus was introduced by Jones in 1964. It is characterized by spherical, hyaline to cream-colored ascomata, broadly clavate or ellipsoidal, pedunculate asci and one-celled, ellipsoidal, hyaline (glass-like) conidia which possess a tuft of bristle-like appendages at each end and four tufts around the equator (Jones 1964).[1] Phylogenetic analysis showed that Nautosphaeria was clustered with Tubakiella basal to Halosphaeriaceae family (Sakayaroj et al. 2011).[3]
