Beauveria Rubra
''Beauveria'' is a genus of asexually-reproducing fungi allied with the Ascomycota, ascomycete family Cordycipitaceae. Its several species are typically Entomopathogenic fungus, insect pathogens. The sexual states (teleomorphs) of ''Beauveria'' species, where known, are species of ''Cordyceps''. ''Beauveria'' species are white entomopathogenic fungi. They form unicellular conidia that are typically hydrophobic and very small. The conidia are formed holoblastically from basally inflated conidiogenous cells. After conidium production, the conidiogenous cell elongates before producing another conidium atop a small denticle (a narrow projection bearing a conidium or sporangium). The result is the formation of a distinctive, slender, zig-zag rachis. Colonies of ''Beauveria'' species are typically white or off-white on artificial culture media. Species of ''Tritirachium'' resemble ''Beauveria'' species in having a zig-zag conidiogenous cells, but differ in lacking conspicuous denticle ...

Jean Paul Vuillemin
Jean Paul Vuillemin (13 February 1861 – 25 September 1932 in Malzéville) was a French mycology, mycologist born in Docelles. He studied at the University of Nancy, earning his medical doctorate in 1884. In 1892 he obtained his doctorate in sciences at the University of Paris, Sorbonne, and from 1895 to 1932 he was a professor of natural history at the medical faculty in Nancy.BHL Taxonomic literature : a selective guide to botanical publications He described the genera ''Spinalia'' and ''Zygorhynchus''. The mushroom genus ''Vuilleminia'' (René Maire, Maire) is named after him. In 1889 he employed the term "antibiotic" when describing the substance pyocyanin. In 1901 he transferred the yeast-like fungus that was named ''Saccharomyces hominis'' by Otto Busse and ''Saccharomyces neoformans'' by Fra ...
