Allomyces
Dichotomously branched thallus of Allomyces sp. At the ends of the branches are two to three orange-brown sporangia stacked on top of each other. Each sporangium has two discharge papillae. The sporangia at the top of the stacks have apical discharge papillae. The zoosporangia on the bottom of the stacks have lateral discharge papillae.
Zoosporangia of an Allomyces sp. sporophyte growing on agar.

Allomyces is a genus of fungi in the family Blastocladiaceae. It was circumscribed by British mycologist Edwin John Butler in 1911. Species in the genus have a polycentric thallus and reproduce sexually or asexually by zoospores that have a whiplash-like flagella. They are mostly isolated from soils in tropical countries, commonly in ponds, rice fields, and slow-moving rivers.[2]
