Aspergillus arvii spec. nov., a new animal pathogen?
Aspergillus arvii sp. nov. Aho, Horie, Nishimura & Miyaji isolated from liver lesions of a dairy cow in Finland, is suggested to represent a new species. It differs from the other members of the Aspergillus fumigatus group by its stable brown colony colour, the ornamentation of its conidia as well as the shape of the vesicles and length of conidiophores.
