Aspergillus homomorphus is a species of fungus in the genus Aspergillus. It belongs to the group of black Aspergilli which are important industrial workhorses. A. homomorphus belongs to the Nigri section. The species was first described in 1995. It has been isolated from soil from the Dead Sea in Israel. The mycotoxin secalonic acid D has been reported from this fungus. In addition, it produces many exometabolites only found in this fungus. The genome of A. homomorphus was sequenced and published in 2014 as part of the Aspergillus whole-genome sequencing project – a project dedicated to

Penicillium thymicola is a halotolerant species of fungus in the genus Penicillium which produces okaramine A, daldinin D, alantrypinone, seranttrypinone, fumiquinazoline F and fumiquinazoline G.

Penicillium scabrosum is a species of fungus in the family Aspergillaceae was first formally described in 1990. The fungus forms distinctively coloured colonies that are typically yellow, orange, or red-brown, and features microscopically roughened stalks that inspired its species epithet scabrosum. It has been repeatedly isolated from soil samples in temperate regions, particularly in northern Europe and Canada, and occurs frequently in wheat and barley field soils. The fungus produces several biologically active compounds including fumigaclavines, fumitremorgines, viridicatin, viridicatol,

Penicillium neoechinulatum is a species of fungus in the genus Penicillium which produces patulin.

Penicillium megasporum is a species in the genus Penicillium which produces xanthomegin, verrucosidin, roquefortine C and penitrem A. Penicillium megasporum occurs in grain

Penicillium kananaskense is an anamorph species of the genus of Penicillium which was isolated from soil of a forest in Alberta in Canada.

Penicillium freii is a psychrophilic species of the genus of Penicillium which produces xanthomegnin and patulin. Penicillium freii occurs in meat, meat products, barley and wheat

Penicillium coprobium is an anamorph fungus species of the genus of Penicillium which produces pyripyropene A, roquefortine C, penicillic acid and patulin.

Talaromyces atroroseus is a species of fungus described as new to science in 2013. Found in soil and fruit, it was first identified from house dust collected in South Africa. The fungus produces a stable red pigment with no known toxins that, it is speculated, could be used in manufacturing, especially mass-produced foods.

Aspergillus westerdijkiae is a species of fungus in the genus Aspergillus. It is from the Circumdati section. The species was first described in 2004. It has been reported to produce penicillic acid, ochratoxin A, xanthomegnin, viomellein, and vioxanthin.

Aspergillus sclerotiicarbonarius is a species of fungus in the genus Aspergillus. It belongs to the group of black Aspergilli which are important industrial workhorses. A. sclerotiicarbonarius belongs to the Nigri section. The species was first described in 2008. It has been isolated from Thai coffee beans. The genome of A. sclerotiicarbonarius was sequenced and published in 2014 as part of the Aspergillus whole-genome sequencing project – a project dedicated to performing whole-genome sequencing of all members of the genus Aspergillus. The genome assembly size was 37.62 Mbp.

Aspergillus latus is a species of fungus in the genus Aspergillus in the Nidulantes section.

Aspergillus aculeatinus is a species of fungus in the genus Aspergillus. It belongs to the group of black Aspergilli, which are important industrial workhorses. A. aculeatinus belongs to the Nigri section. The species was first described in 2008 and has been isolated from Thai coffee beans. It has been shown to produce neoxaline, secalonic acid D and F, and aculeacins. The genome of A. aculeatinus was sequenced and published in 2014 as part of the Aspergillus whole-genome sequencing project – a project dedicated to performing whole-genome sequencing of all members of the genus Aspergillus.

Rasamsonia is a genus of fungi in the family Trichocomaceae, circumscribed in 2011 by mycologists Jos Houbraken and Jens Frisvad. It is characterized from other genera of the Trichocomaceae by the following combination of features: species are thermotolerant or thermophilic; their conidiophores have distinctly rough-walled stipes; conidia are olive brown; and ascomata, if present, have minimal covering. Rasamsonia phenotypically resembles Paecilomyces, in that both have thermotolerant species, produce olive-brown conidia, and form ascomata with no or scarce ascomatal covering; Rasamsonia,

Penicillium salamii is a species of fungus in the genus Penicillium which occurs on dry-cured meat products.

Penicillium raphiae is a species of fungus in the genus Penicillium which was isolated from agricultural soil of the Ulleung Island in Korea.

Penicillium persicinum is a species of fungus in the genus Penicillium which was isolated from soil from the Qinghai Province in China. Penicillium persicinum produces griseofulvin, lichexanthone, roquefortine C, roquefortine D, patulin and chrysogine

Penicillium pancosmium is a species of fungus in the genus Penicillium.

Penicillium caseifulvum is a fungus species of the genus of Penicillium which occurs on the surface of blue cheese and causes discoloration in form of brown spots. While there exists a caseifulvum clade of gray-green cheese molds, this group is not distinguishable from Penicillium camemberti using a few microsatellite markers. It is commonly found on soft cheeses, being used to make Saint-Marcellin and Rigotte de Condrieu. Unlike its relatives also used in cheese-making, it does not produce cyclopiazonic acid due to a 2bp deletion in the CpaA gene.

Penicillium araracuarense is a fungus species of the genus Penicillium which was isolated from soil from the Colombian Amazon forest. It is named after the type locality, Araracuara, a remote settlement where the type specimen was collected.
