SKLENÁŘ F., JURJEVIĆ Ž., HUBKA V. (2025): Aspergillus nanangensis: updated description with phenotypic and ecological comparison to other species of section Janorum. [Aspergillus janus, fungal taxonomy, GlobalFungi, multilocus phylogeny, nanangenines.] Czech Mycology 77(1): 1-16 (published: 26th February, 2025) Electronic supplement
abstract
Aspergillus nanangensis is a recently described species, only known from a single collection from forest soil in Australia. It belongs to the less explored section Janorum within the subgenus Circumdati. It produces secondary metabolites (nanangenines), some of which possess anticancer activity. Here, we report new isolations of this species from indoor air and dust in the USA, and update the description of this species to include previously unobserved phenotypic characteristics, notably two different types of conidial heads (white and green), a typical feature of section Janorum. In addition to presenting new data about the ecology of this species, we review the geographic distribution of all currently recognised members of section Janorum. Phylogenetic analysis based on four DNA loci (ITS rDNA, benA, CaM, and RPB2) has confirmed that A. nanangensis is a well-supported species. Finally, we provide a comprehensive comparison of the distinguishing characters of A. nanangensis with the four remaining species accepted in section Janorum.

abstract
During long-term studies of microscopic fungi in 80 European caves and mine environments many cadavers and skeletons of animals inhabiting these environments and various animal visitors were found, some of them with visible microfungal growth. Direct isolation, the dilution plate method and various types of isolation media were used. The resulting spectrum of isolated fungi is presented and compared with records about their previous isolation. Compared to former studies focused mainly on bat mycobiota, this paper contributes to a wider knowledge of fungal assemblages colonising various animal bodies in underground environments.The most interesting findings include ascocarps of Acaulium caviariforme found abundant on mammals cadavers, while Botryosporium longibrachiatum isolated from frogs, Chaetocladium jonesiae from bats and Penicillium vulpinum from spiders represent the first records of these species from cadavers or skeletons.
