Penicillium species are ubiquitous in all kinds of environments, and they industrial, agricultural clinical importance. In this study, soil fungal diversity Southwestern China was investigated, that turned out to be unexpectedly high. The survey included a total 179 cultures the genus isolated from 33 samples. Three-locus phylogenetic analyses morphological comparisons were carried out. examinations revealed belonged two subgenera (Aspergilloides Penicillium), 11 sections (Aspergilloides, Canescentia, Citrina, Exilicaulis, Fasciculata, Gracilenta, Lanata-Divaricata, Penicillium, Ramosum, Robsamsonia, Sclerotiorum), 25 series, 74 species. Forty-three discovered as new science, Simianshanica, established sect. Aspergilloides. Additionally, recorded for first time China. Species isolation frequency distribution group also discussed.

Penicillium is a large and significant genus of fungi, exhibiting widespread distribution across diverse substrates. Ongoing taxonomic nomenclatural revisions have led to an annual increase in the number newly described species. This study two new species, i.e., P.lentum P.tibetense, discovered China. They been identified characterized through morphological examination both single gene multigene phylogenetic analyses. Based on these analyses, was classified within section Brevicompacta, while P.tibetense placed Lanata-Divaricata. Both species exhibited features typical their respective sections. Penicilliumlentum by restricted growth with dense colonies agar media predominantly generates terverticillate conidiophores. Penicilliumtibetense demonstrates rapid has vigorous CYA at 30 °C, producing biverticillate Comprehensive descriptions detailed illustrations were presented. A comparison between closely related taxa provided.

Waste accumulation in forest regions can have a severe impact on the soil mycobiome. However, research fungi inhabiting disposal sites remains limited. Therefore, this study focused taxonomy and phylogeny of ascomycetes isolated from dump-sites Chiang Mai, Thailand. The fungal strains were identified using morphological characterisations multigene phylogenetic reconstruction. A new genus, Pseudoleptodontidium, typified by Ps.chiangmaiense sp. nov. (Amphisphaeriales genera incertae sedis, Xylariomycetidae), along with two species, Penicilliumchiangmaiense (series Janthinella, section Lanata-Divaricata) P.terrae Erubescentia, Exilicaulis) (Aspergillaceae, Eurotiales), are described detail compared closely-related species. Our discovery offers valuable insights into associated disturbances.
