Aspergillus wentii was first described by German mycologist Carl Friedrich Wilhelm Wehmer in 1896. [3] Following a morphology-based classification scheme he created in 1901, Wehmer grouped A. wentii under a category of large Aspergilli that he called the "Macroaspergilli" due to its large fruiting body structure (the conidial head).

Neofavolus alveolaris, commonly known as the hexagonal-pored polypore, [3] is a species of fungus in the family Polyporaceae.It causes a white rot of dead hardwoods.Found on sticks and decaying logs, its distinguishing features are its yellowish to orange scaly cap, and the hexagonal or diamond-shaped pores.
The fruit bodies are semicircular to fan-shaped brackets that measure up to 8 cm (3 in) broad by 10 cm (4 in) wide, with a thickness of 0.5–2 cm (0.2–0.8 in). The upper surface is initially white before aging to yellowish or grayish, and has a texture ranging from smooth to tomentose.
Trichophyton mentagrophytes is a species in the fungal genus Trichophyton. [1] It is one of three common fungi which cause ringworm in companion animals.It is also the second-most commonly isolated fungus causing tinea infections in humans, and the most common or one of the most common fungi that cause zoonotic skin disease.
Mucor is a microbial genus of approximately 40 species of molds and dimorphic fungi in the family Mucoraceae. [1] [2] [3] The genus includes both pathogenic and avirulent species, and some members of it can be utilized in biotechnical applications. [4]
Schizophyllum commune is a species of fungus in the genus Schizophyllum.The mushroom resembles undulating waves of tightly packed corals or a loose Chinese fan. Gillies or split-gills vary from creamy yellow to pale white in colour.
Lepiota is a genus of gilled mushrooms in the family Agaricaceae.All Lepiota species are ground-dwelling saprotrophs with a preference for rich, calcareous soils. Basidiocarps (fruit bodies) are agaricoid with whitish spores, typically with scaly caps and a ring on the stipe.
Among the other members of zygomycetes, Apophysomyces elegans mostly resembles those from genus Absidia.However, its bell-shaped (although not conical) apophyses (outgrowth), the existence of its foot-cell like hyphal segment, rhizoids produced opposite to the sporangiophores upon cultivation on plain agar, the darker and thicker subapical segment, and inability to sporulate on routine culture ...
