Acaulopage

Acaulopage is a genus in the former Zygomycota that preys on amoeba.
Morphology.
Species of "Acaulopage" are characterized by coenocytic hyphae that have patches of yellowish adhesive patches used to capture amoeba. Conidia are borne directly on the hyphae and vary widely in morphology. Many bear one to many empty appendages. For example, "A. marantia" conidia have a single appendage; "A. tetraceros" conidia have an average of four appendages; and, "A. lasiospora" conidia are covered in appendages. Zygospores are globose with ornamented walls.
Ecology.
Species are often recovered from soil or leaf litter placed on agar in Petri dishes. "Acaulopage tetroceros" is the most commonly reported species.
Species.
According to Gerald L. Benny, there are 27 species of "Acaulopage".
