Examination of soil samples front a sclerophyllous shrubland near the town of Iboribo in La Gran Sabana, Venezuela, revealed an undescribed species of Scutellospora whose spores are ornamented with finger-print-like processes, are ochraceous yellow with a pinkish tint, and have a complex wall structure. The new species, named Scutellospora striata, is the third Scutellospora species described from La Gran Sabana, Venezuela. |
