Abstract Diagnostic criteria for the distinction of the slightly osmophilic species,Aureobasidium pullulans, and the opportunistic pathogen on conifers,Hormonema dematioides, are provided. Reliable identification requires a combination of characters of conidiogenesis, expansion growth and assimilative abilities. Relationships with species ofKabatiella, and with the teleomorph generaPringsheimia, Dothidea andDothiora, all havingHormonema-like cultural states, are discussed. An identification key is provided.
