Innearly all the subdivisions of the variousfamilies of the Hyphomycetes, suchsubdivisions being based upon the char-acter of the conidia, the genera areassociated in these two groups ofMacronemeae or Micronemeae, according as the conidia-bearingthreads are long and well developed or short and almostobsolete. It would be wearisome and unnecessary here todetail all the varied modifications of the conidia-bearers, orthe conidia, which are taken advantage of in the constructionof genera, or groups of genera. It must suffice to say thatmost of the distinctions are based upon the form, or mode ofarrangement, of the conidia about the threads. For Fig. 128.—One ofthe Microneineae Aegerita.
