A new species of Syncephalis (Zoopagales) was isolated from soil in a semiarid area of northeastern Brazil. Syncephalis aggregata is distinguished from the other species of the genus by the production of merosporangiophores in dense tufts and with randomly spaced, irregular swellings and simple merosporangia produced over the upper 50% of a globose to ovoid vesicle. An identification key for the species of Syncephalis found in Brazil is provided.

    Spatial patterns of cellular differentiation may arise from cells first being assigned a position, as in a coordinate system, and then interpreting the positional value that they have acquired. This interpretation will depend on their genetic constitution and developmental history. Different pattern...
