None of these species are able to grow on CY20S at 37 °C. Aspergillus niveoglaucus and Aspergillus megasporus can be distinguished from other species by their large conidia, which are up to 11 and 12 μm in the longest axis respectively. Aspergillus megasporus colonies grow faster than Aspergillus niveoglaucus on DG18.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/4A8B2211278E64CF768C737A30485890	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
