A new species, Tolypocladium parasiticum, is described as endoparasitic on the rotifer host Adineta. Unlike most other known Hyphomycetes parasitic on rotifers, conidia are produced underwater. Infection is initiated by conidia lodging in the lower gullet near the mastax of the host. Conidiogenous cells (phialides) arise either directly from the host body or in clusters from short, simple conidiophores. This species produces solitary terminal resting spores with an unusual nodular appearance.
