("Phoma") pycnidium - where conidiophores and conidia are formed

Phomas have a complete wall and oblong, clear spores (asexual; secondary spores).

Pycnidia are flask-shaped with one or more osteoles.

They look like perithecium, but the conidia are not produced in asci as ascospores are.

Therefore they are imperfect (asexual)
