The isolation of two entomopathogenic fungi from Forcipomyia marksae larvae collected in leaf axils of Colocasia macrorrhiza in northeastern Queensland rain forests is reported. An oomycete, in which the zoospores complete their development wholly within the sporangium and are discharged through a short papillar extension, is described as a new genus and species, Crypticola clavulifera. A strain of the well-known oomycete, Lagenidium giganteum, was isolated from F. marksae--the first record of this fungus infecting a member of the Ceratopogonidae. The pathogenesis and zoosporogenesis of the two fungi in mosquito and ceratopogonid larvae are described.
报道了从昆士兰雨林东北部大根芋叶腋处采集的马克氏蠛蠓幼虫中分离出两种昆虫病原真菌。一种卵菌，其游动孢子在孢子囊内完全发育，并通过短的乳头状延伸排出，被描述为一个新属和新物种，即棒状隐孢壶菌。从马克氏蠛蠓中分离出了一种著名的卵菌——巨大拉格孢菌，这是该真菌感染蠓科成员的首次记录。描述了这两种真菌在蚊子和蠓幼虫中的发病机制和游动孢子形成过程。
