Trichocomaceae
The Trichocomaceae are a family of fungi in the order Eurotiales. Taxa are saprobes with aggressive colonization strategies, adaptable to extreme environmental conditions. Family members are cosmopolitan in distribution, ubiquitous in soil, and common associates of decaying plant and food material. Taxonomy When first described, the family contained some of the most familiar fungi, such as ''Penicillium'' and ''Aspergillus''. In 2011, it was proposed, that the family should be split into the three families Aspergillaceae, Thermoascaceae and Trichocomaceae. In an updated phylogeny of the Eurotiales published in 2020, there were 8 genera included in the Trichocomaceae. Several more genera are connected to the Trichocomaceae in the Mycobank MycoBank is an online database, documenting new mycological names and combinations, eventually combined with descriptions and illustrations. It is run by the Westerdijk Fungal Biodiversity Institute in Utrecht. Each novelty, after being ...

Rasamsonia
''Rasamsonia'' is a genus of fungi in the family Trichocomaceae, circumscription (taxonomy), 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'', however, differs from ''Paecilomyces'' in having more regularly branched conidiophores with distinct rough-walled structures. The type species is ''Rasamsonia emersonii'', a fungus formerly classified in the genus ''Talaromyces''. Clinical relevance Due to an increase in reports of human and animal mycosis by ''Rasamsonia argillacea'' (formerly ''Geos ...

Eurotiales
The Eurotiales are an order of sac fungi, also known as the green and blue molds. It was circumscribed in 1980.

Trichocoma
''Trichocoma'' is a genus of fungi in the family Trichocomaceae. The type species, ''Trichocoma paradoxa'', is widespread in tropical regions. Commonly known as the "shaving brush fungus", it is about 2 cm tall, 0.5 cm wide, and not edible. Mostly found during the winter season, it is spore In biology, a spore is a unit of sexual reproduction, sexual (in fungi) or asexual reproduction that may be adapted for biological dispersal, dispersal and for survival, often for extended periods of time, in unfavourable conditions.

Neosartorya
''Neosartorya pseudofischeri'' is a fungus first isolated at an autopsy from a fungal lesion occurring in human neck vertebrae. Its ascospore morphology was identical to that of '' Aspergillus thermomutatus''. ''Neosartorya'' species are the sexual states (teleomorph) of ''Aspergillus'' species, notably the ''Aspergillus fumigatus ''Aspergillus fumigatus'' is a species of fungus in the genus ''Aspergillus'', and is one of the most common ''Aspergillus'' species to cause disease in individuals with an immunodeficiency.

Sagenomella
''Sagenomella'' is a genus of filamentous Ascomycota fungus that has reported to cause systemic illness in animals. The genus was circumscribed by Walter Gams in 1978. ''Sagenomella chlamydospora'' has been reported to cause a systemic illness in dogs. They are normally considered a non-dermatophytic fungi. Both skeletal and visceral phaeohyphomycosis due to granuloma formation have been reported, and iatrogenic infections associated with wound dehiscence is common. Clinical signs of ''Sagenomella'' spp. infections are often vague and most cases cited report sudden death as a consistent sign. Thick-walled fungal hyphae are usually detected in impression smears from skin lesions. Staining with periodic acid-Schiff stain is usually confirmatory.

Talaromyces
''Talaromyces'' is a genus of fungi in the family Trichocomaceae. Described in 1955 by American mycologist Chester Ray Benjamin, species in the genus form soft, cottony fruit bodies ( ascocarps) with cell walls made of tightly interwoven hyphae. The fruit bodies are often yellowish or are surrounded by yellowish granules. A 2008 estimate placed 42 species in the genus, but several new species have since been described. This genus contains the teleomorph of ''Penicillium ''Penicillium'' () is a genus of Ascomycota, ascomycetous fungus, fungi that is part of the mycobiome of many species and is of major importance in the natural environment, in food spoilage, and in food and drug production.
