Herpotrichiellaceae
Herpotrichiellaceae is a family of ascomycetous fungi within the order Chaetothyriales and within the class Eurotiomycetes. It contains 16 genera and about 270 species. The type genus of the family, ''Herpotrichiella'', is now synonymous with '' Capronia''. Genera This is a list of the genera in the Herpotrichiellaceae, based on a 2020 review and summary of fungal classification by Wijayawardene and colleagues. Following the genus name is the taxonomic authority (those who first circumscribed the genus; standardized author abbreviations are used), year of publication, and the number of species: *''Aculeata'' – 1 sp. *'' Brycekendrickomyces'' – 1 sp. *'' Capronia'' – ca. 81 spp. *'' Cladophialophora'' – 35 spp. *''Exophiala'' – 51 spp. *'' Fonsecaea'' – 8 spp. *'' Marinophialophora'' – 1 sp. *'' Melanoctona'' – 1 sp. *'' Metulocladosporiella'' – 6 spp. *'' Minimelanolocus'' – 33 spp. *''Phialophora ''Phialophora'' is a form genus of fungus with sh ...

''Fonsecaea'' is a genus of fungi in the family Herpotrichiellaceae. The type species, '' Fonsecaea pedrosoi'', is associated with the disease chromoblastomycosis Chromoblastomycosis is a long-term fungal infection of the skin and subcutaneous tissue (a chronic subcutaneous mycosis).

Exophiala
''Exophiala'' is a genus of anamorphic fungi in the family Herpotrichiellaceae. The widespread genus contains 28 species. The genus was formally described by J. W. Carmichael in 1966. ''Exophiala'' has been implicated in causing 'saxophone lung' or hypersensitivity pneumonitis, a disease that can be contracted by woodwind instrumentalists (saxophonists, clarinettists, oboists, etc.). A case study presented at the annual meeting of the American College of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology highlighted that it is possible to develop this allergic pulmonary disease through improper cleaning of instruments. '' Exophiala werneckii'' is the organism responsible for tinea nigra. Some sources equate ''Hortaea werneckii'', ''Cladosporium werneckii'', ''Exophiala werneckii'', and ''Phaeoannellomyces werneckii''. ''Exophiala jeanselmei'' causes maduromycosis. This is usually an asymptomatic disease which presents with black or brown macular lesions which enlarge by peripheral extension. The ...

Veronaea
''Veronaea'' is a genus of ascomycete fungi, classified in the family Herpotrichiellaceae. The genus was defined by R. Ciferri and A. Montemartini in 1958. Species of ''Veronaea'' grow relatively well in culture, producing sparingly branched, brownish conidiophore A conidium ( ; ), sometimes termed an asexual chlamydospore or chlamydoconidium (), is an Asexual reproduction, asexual, non-motility, motile spore of a fungus. The word ''conidium'' comes from the Ancient Greek word for dust, ('). They are al ...s with geniculate, sympodial conidiogenous cells with flat, unthickened scars, each producing single 1–septate conidia. The cosmopolitan ''V. botryosa'' has 2(–4) celled conidia and although found in soil and other organic matter, it frequently causes skin infections in immunocompromized humans.

Anders Munk
Anders Munk (born 1922 in Kolding – died June 1989 in Copenhagen) was a Danish mycologist. He was an expert of the fungal group colloquially known as the Pyrenomycetes, and best known for his 1957 work "Danish Pyrenomycetes". Biography Munk's introduction to mycology was from Poul Larsen, who was previously a teacher and a former colleague of Munk's parents. Around that time Munk also made contact with biologist Øjvind Winge, who introduced Munk to the Pyrenomycetes, which were also his own main interest. Munk started studying botany at the University of Copenhagen in 1940. His interest in the fungi was further enhanced after reading John Axel Nannfeldt's 1932 work on the morphology and systematics of the discomycetes. Munk worked for some summers at the then-newly started , where he increased his knowledge about the ecology of the Pyrenomycetes. After graduating in 1946, Munk got a short-term job at Løvens Kemiske Fabrik (now LEO Pharma). He did not enjoy the work (manufactu ...

Cladophialophora
''Cladophialophora'' is a genus of fungi in the family Herpotrichiellaceae. It has 35 species. The genus contains black yeast-like fungi, some of which are species of important medical significance. '' Cladophialophora bantiana'' causes the rare brain disease cerebral phaeohyphomycosis. '' Cladophialophora carrionii'' is a common cause of chromoblastomycosis in semi-arid climates. Some of the species are endophytes–associating with plants. For example, '' Cladophialophora yegresii'' is a cactus endophyte, which is sometimes introduced into humans via cactus spines. Taxonomy The genus was proposed in 1980 by Italian-born Venezuelan microbiologist and mycologist Dante Borelli. The type species was assigned to '' Cladophialophora ajelloi'', which was isolated from a Uganda }), is a landlocked country in East Africa East Africa, Eastern Africa, or East of Africa, is the eastern subregion of the African continent.
