The fungi of the genus Entomophthora are mostly obligate parasites in nature. Due to their high demand for organic nitrogen, they are difficult to isolate and especially to maintain in permanent culture compared to other entomopathogenic fungi. In the Prague collection, the best results were obtained using coagulated yolk medium (Müller-Kogler 1959), or media enriched with casamino acid compounds (Krejzová 1970).
