Conidia typically appear dry but in some species they may be held in drops of clear green or yellow liquid (e.g. "T. virens", "T. flavofuscum"). Conidia of most species are ellipsoidal, 3–5 x 2–4 µm (L/W = > 1.3); globose conidia (L/W < 1.3) are rare. Conidia are typically smooth but tuberculate to finely warted conidia are known in a few species. Conidia appear colorless to green, smooth to rough, and are in moist conidial masses, variable in shape and size, small, 2.8– 4.8 mm for common species. Conidiophores branch repeatedly, bearing clusters of phialides terminally in most cases.
