Abstract
ACordyceps specimen was collected in Anhui, China, a strain ofBeauveria bassiana, an important entomopathogenic fungus for biological pest control, was isolated and their relationship was demonstrated by microcycle conidiation. The teleomorph is an undescribed species and is namedCordyceps bassiana.
