Aspergillus striatulus (also named Apsergillus striatus) is a species of fungus in the genus Aspergillus. It is from the Nidulantes section.[2] The species was first described in 1985.[1] It has been isolated from mangrove mud in the Kagh Islands.[2] It has been reported to produce asperthecin, aurantioemestrin, cycloisoemericellin, desferritriacetylfusigen, dithiosilvatin, emindol SA, emindol SB, 7-Hydroxyemodin, paxillin, 1-O-acetylpaxillin, penicillin G, sterigmatocystin, violaceic acid, violaceol I, and violaceol II.[2]
Growth and morphology[edit]
A. striatulus has been cultivated on both Czapek yeast extract agar (CYA) plates and Malt Extract Agar Oxoid® (MEAOX) plates. The growth morphology of the colonies can be seen in the pictures below.
