Seven species complexes are treated, namely species complex (FASC) (two species), species complex (FBSC) (five species), species complex (FBURSC) (three species), species complex (FCAMSC) (three species), species complex (FCSC) (eight species), species complex (FCCSC) (five species) and the species complex (FCOSC) (four species). New species include from soil (Zimbabwe), and from soil associated with (Netherlands). New combinations include and Newly validated taxa include , , , and .

Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the activity of ibrexafungerp and comparators against a collection of 434 European blood isolates of .
Methods: Ibrexafungerp, caspofungin, fluconazole, and micafungin minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) were collected from 12 European laboratories for 434 blood isolates, including 163 , 108 , 60 , 40 , 29 , 20 , 6 , 2 , 2 , and 1 isolate each of , , and .
The fungi of the order Onygenales can cause important human infections; however, their taxonomy and worldwide occurrence is still little known. We have studied and identified a representative number of clinical fungi belonging to that order from a reference laboratory in the USA. A total of 22 strains isolated from respiratory tract (40%) and human skin and nails (27.

Thus, an alternate hypothesis, namely a very broad concept of the genus was proposed. In doing so, however, a significant body of data that supports distinct genera in based on morphology, biology, and phylogeny is disregarded.
