Abstract
This paper reports detailed studies and observations made on five isolates of the common mycoparasite on powdery mildews viz.Ampelomyces quisqualis Ces. in artificial culture. The results revealed some significant variations among these isolates in respect of morphological characters of pycnidia and pycnidiospores and colony characters, which provide evidence on the existence of physiologic forms within this species of the hyperparasite.
