K&J REMARKS The original binomial for this species is a junior homonym of I. punctatus Rouse; Gupta 1985 proposed a new name. The "punctae" in the original illustration are difficult to recognize, as the spore is mostly opaque; part of what looks like punctae (i.e. thinnings in the wall) may result from poor preservation.
