A new genus of Ascomycetes, Achaetomium, with three species, A. globosum (type species), A. strumarium, and A. luteum, has been described from Indian soils. The new genus is characterized by the presence of ostiolate ascocarps devoid of hairy adornment and with wall made up of loosely interwoven hyphae, fascicled early-deliquescing asci, and dark one-celled ascospores. The new genus cannot adequately be placed in a known family.
