Genus of fungi
Microascus is a genus of fungi in the family Microascaceae .[ 1] [ 2]
It was introduced by Luttrell (1951) to accommodate genus Microascus which was originally placed in family Ophiostomataceae (Nannfeldt 1932,[ 3] ) or Eurotiaceae in Eunotiales order, (Moreau and Moreau 1953;[ 4] Emmons and Dodge 1931;[ 5] Doguet 1957).[ 6] Then Malloch (1970) validated the family and accepted genera, Kernia , Lophotrichus and Petriellidium in the family.[ 7]
It has 60 species in 2023.[ 8]
