Abstract Saprolegnia longicaulis sp. nov. is described
from litter (floating twigs, leaves, and roots) in Vitel Sur Stream, in Buenos
Aires Province, Argentina. The species is illustrated and compared with other
species of the genus. It differs from
S. australis in having very long
oogonial stalks, mature oospores, and in lacking androgynous antheridial
branches; the zoosporangia are very much longer; the oogonia and the oospores
are larger.
