Phaeoacremonium is a fungus genus associated with wilt and decline diseases of woody hosts and human infections.[1]

Togninia is the teleomorph (the sexual reproductive stage) of Phaeoacremonium.[2]

Species

  • Phaeoacremonium aleophilum, associated with esca in mature grapevines and decline in young vines (Petri disease), two types of grapevine trunk disease.[3]
  • Phaeoacremonium alvesii, a cause of subcutaneous infection of humans [4]
  • Phaeoacremonium amstelodamense, a cause of human joint infection[4]
  • Phaeoacremonium australiense, an endophyte of grapevines [4]
  • Phaeoacremonium griseorubrum, a cause of human fungemia (blood infection)[4]
  • Phaeoacremonium krajdenii, a cause of subcutaneous infection of humans[4][5]
  • Phaeoacremonium parasitica, formerly Phialophora parasitica[1]
  • Phaeoacremonium scolyti, an endophyte of grapevine, also isolated from bark beetle larvae[4]
  • Phaeoacremonium sphinctrophorum, from fungal cyst of the human foot[6]
  • Phaeoacremonium subulatum, an endophyte of grapevine[4]
  • Phaeoacremonium tardicrescens, from unspecified human medical source[4]
  • Phaeoacremonium theobromatis, from stem of wild mountain cocoa (Theobroma gileri) in Ecuador[6]
  • Phaeoacremonium venezuelense, from eumycetoma of the human foot[4]
