摘要

Aspergillus arcoverdensis, a new species isolated from semi-desert soil in a caatinga area, State of Pernambuco, Brazil, and a similar environment in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, China, is described and illustrated. It is characterized by relatively long co-nidiophores for Aspergillus section Fumigati, and subglobose to broadly ellipsoidal and smooth conidia. The delimitation of this new species is supported further by phylogenetic analyses of the beta-tubulin, calmodulin and actin gene sequences.
