Figure 1. Generalized life cycle for Coelomomyces giganteum. Motile zoospores (A) attach to, and penetrate (B) cuticle of mosquito larva (lateral view). Hyphae grow (C), septate (D), and start forming sporangia (E). Exit vesicles with zoospores (F) (asexual cycle) or oospores (G) (sexual cycle) are formed (drawn by Ernst-Jan Scholte, modified after Fetter-Lasko and Washino (1983)).
