A MANUAL OF THE PENICILLIA 



Page 



Gliocladium Corda, in Icones Fun- 

 gorum IV: 30-31, Taf. VII, fig. 

 92. 1840. Type species: G. 

 penicilloides Corda, ibid. Latin 

 description repeated in Icones 

 V: 14. 1842, with a brief para- 

 graph in German. Character- 

 ized by penicilhite fruiting struc- 

 tures with the conidia massed in 

 balls of slime 20 



Gymnoascus Baran., in Bot. Zeit. p. 

 158. 1872. Ascosporic forms 

 with condial fruiting structures 

 sometimes more or less peni- 

 cillate 21 



Isaria Persoon, in "Disp." pj). 41, 74. 

 1797. Certain coremiform Peni- 

 cillia approximate the charac- 

 ters of Isaria; while some species 

 of Isaria simulate strongly lunic- 

 ulose strains of Penicillium . ... 21 



Lysipenicilliuni Brefeld, in Unters. 

 Gesammtgeb. der. Myk. 14: 

 209-210. 1908; and 15: Taf. VII, 

 figs. 1-7. 1912. Type species: 

 L. insigae regarded as i)robably 

 representing a Gliucladiam 22 



Metarrhizium Sorokin, in Zeit. der 

 Kaiserlichen Landwirtschafiech 

 Gesellschaft fur Neurussland, 

 Odessa 1879: 268 (fide Pope, 

 1944). Type species: M. ani- 

 sopliae (Metsch.) Sorokin. 

 Vuillemin and others have re- 

 garded as Penicillium forms 

 which are generally assigned to 

 Metarrhizium 22 



Subgenus Microaspergillus Wehmer, 

 in Monogr. 1901. Biourge used 

 this to include a series of strains 

 regarded by him as new and as 

 bridging the gap between Asper- 

 gillus and Penicillium 23 



Monilia Persoon, emend. Sacc. Mich. 

 II, p. 17 nee Fr., in Sylloge IV: 

 p. 31. 1886. This genus repre- 

 sented a very broad usage based 

 upon conidia in unbranched 

 chains; contained Aspergillus,

Penicillium, and many other 

 genera now recognized 23 



Subgenus Monoverticillium Biourge, 

 in Bui. Ass. Anc. El. Ec. Brass. 

 Univ. Louvain, No. 3. 1920. 

 Apparently used synonymously 

 with Dierck.x's Aspergilloides 

 which represented monoverticil- 

 late Penicillia 23 



Paecilomyces Bainier, in Bui. Soc. 

 Mycol. France 23: 26-27, PI. 

 Vil. 1907. Type species: P. 



varioti Bain 23 



Syn. Penicillium divaricatum 

 Thom and Eidamia catenulata 



Home and Williamson 24 



Probable Syn.: Corollium Sopp 

 and some species of Spicaria 

 Harz 24 



Scupulariopsis Bainier, in Bui. Soc. 

 Mycol. France 23: 98, pi. XI. 

 1907. Type species: P. brevi- 



caule Saccardo 24 



Syn. Acaulium Sopp 16 



Spicaria Harz, in Bui. de la Soc. 

 Imp. des Nat. de Moscou 44: 51. 

 1871. Generally thought to in- 

 clude molds with verticillately 

 branched and strongly divergent 

 conidial structures. Tends to 

 merge into Penicillium through 

 P . lilacinum 24 



Slysanus Corda is designated as a 

 subgenus of Penicillium in 

 Sopp's Monogr., pp. 78-79. 

 1912. Biourge (1923) proposed 

 to consider Stysanus with Peni- 

 cillium since penicillate conidial 

 structures are sometimes seen. . 25 



Synpenicillium Costantin, in Bui. 

 Soc. Mycol. France 4: 62-68, PI. 

 XIV, figs. 10-17. 1888. Type 

 species: Synpenicillium album 



Cost 25 



Syn: P. costantini Bainier, Bui. 

 Soc. Myc. France 22: PI. 11, figs. 

 1-6. 1906. Regarded by Thom 

 (1930) as representing a form of 

 Scopulariopsis 25
