Descripción
Sumario:<i>Talaromyces minioluteus</i> belongs to the section <i>Trachyspermi</i>, has a worldwide distribution and has been found on various substrates, especially on various (stored) food commodities and indoor environments. This species is phenotypically and phylogenetically closely related to <i>T. chongqingensis</i> and <i>T. minnesotensis</i>. The phylogenetic and morphological analyses of 37 strains previously identified as <i>T. chongqingensis</i>, <i>T. minnesotensis</i> and <i>T. minioluteus</i> revealed that this clade incudes eight species: the accepted species <i>T. chongqingensis</i>, <i>T. minnesotensis</i> and <i>T. minioluteus</i>, the newly proposed species <i>T. calidominioluteus</i>, <i>T. africanus</i> and <i>T. germanicus</i>, and the new combinations <i>T. gaditanus</i> (basionym <i>Penicillium gaditanum</i>) and <i>T. samsonii</i> (basionym <i>Penicillium samsonii</i>). In this study, we give insight of the phylogenetic relationships and provide detailed descriptions of the species belonging to this clade. Macromorphological features, especially colony growth rates, texture and conidial colors on agar media, are important characters for phenotypic differentiation between species.
