Synonymy: Phialophora richardsiae (Nannf.) Conant; Pleurostomophora richardsiae (Nannf.) Mostert et al.
Pleurostoma richardsiae was separated from Phialophora based on molecular data (Vijaykrishna et al.,
2004; Reblova et al., 2015). P. richardsiae is a soft rot fungus of wood and is an uncommon cause of human
infection, usually through traumatic implantation causing subcutaneous phaeohyphomycosis.
RG-2 organism
Morphological description: Colonies grow rapidly, and are powdery to woolly or tufted, greyish-brown with
a grey-brown to olivaceous-black reverse. Two conidial types are produced: (1) hyaline conidia which are
allantoid or cylindrical, 3-6 x 1.5-2.5 μm in size, formed on inconspicuous, peg-like phialides on thin-walled
hyphae; and (2) brown, thick-walled conidia which are spherical to sub-spherical, 2.5-3.5 x 2-3 μm, formed
on dark brown, slender, tapering phialides with flaring collarettes (Fig. 77.1).
Key features: Pleurostoma richardsiae is characterised microscopically by phialides with prominent flaring
collarettes bearing globose, brown conidia while phialides with indistinct collarettes bear pale allantoid to
cylindrical conidia.
Molecular identification: ITS sequencing is recommended (Vijaykrishna et al., 2004).

Pneumocystis was initially considered a protozoan and was subsequently assigned to the kingdom Fungi
Downloaded from https://cabidigitallibrary.org by Ivanov Ivan, on 11/04/24.

based on phylogenetic studies of the rRNA (Edman et al., 1988). Pneumocystis is included in the phylum
Ascomycota, subphylum Taphrinomycotina, and is related to Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Schizosaccharomyces
pombe. Despite these similarities, Pneumocystis is considered an “atypical fungus” as it has cholesterol in its
cell membrane instead of ergosterol and is difficult to culture (Edman et al., 1988). Initially considered a
single species, Pneumocystis carinii, it has since been discovered that different species infect different mammals
and the species are both phenotypically and genetically distinct (Sinclair et al., 1991). The human form was
renamed Pneumocystis jirovecii and other species-specific forms have been named P. murina in mice, P. carinii
and P. wakefieldiae in rats and P. oryctolagi in rabbits (Cushion, 2010).
Pneumocystis jirovecii is ubiquitous and causes P. jirovecii pneumonia (PCP) in patients with T cell deficiencies,
including those with HIV infection, solid organ transplant recipients and patients with cancer as well as
adults and children with other underlying immunological diseases (Alanio et al., 2016). P. jirovecii is not
cultivable in vitro and diagnosis of proven PCP is based on clinical and radiologic criteria and demonstration
of P. jirovecii by microscopy.
Morphological description: Diagnosis relies on microscopic detection of trophic forms and cysts of P. jirovecii
in induced sputum, expectorated sputum and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid or washings. The most commonly
used stains, i.e. Giemsa, toluidine blue O, calcofluor white and Grocott-Gomori’s methenamine silver, stain
the cyst form only. Cysts are non-budding, 4-8 μm in diameter, round, oval or collapsed crescent in shape,
resembling crushed ping pong balls or parentheses facing one another, often found in honeycomb-like clusters
(Fig. 78.1). Immunofluorescent staining exhibits superior sensitivity to conventional microscopy detecting
both the cyst and trophic forms, which are 10 x more abundant than the cyst forms in clinical specimens
(Alanio et al., 2016). Trophozoites are 1-8 μm long, pleomorphic and contain a single nucleus.
Key features: Intracystic bodies resembling parentheses facing one another or crushed ping pong balls often
found in honeycomb-like clusters.
Molecular identification: PCR-based assays are more sensitive than microscopic examination for the detection
of P. jirovecii, but they cannot distinguish between colonisation and infection. The multi-copy mitochondrial
large subunit ribosomal RNA (mtLSU) gene is the most common PCR target, but assays targeting the mito-
chondrial small subunit RNA (mtSSU) gene, major surface antigen gene, 18S rRNA, ITS, β-tubulin, DHPS
and HSP70 genes have also been developed (Lagrou et al., 2021).

Prototheca species are not fungi, but achlorophyllous algae with phylogenetic affinities to the genus Chlorella.
These organisms are commonly handled in mycology laboratories due to their macroscopic similarity to yeasts
and susceptibility to antifungal agents. To date only P. wickerhamii and P. ciferrii (formerly P. zopfii) have
been involved in human or animal infections (Lass-Florl and Mayr, 2007; Bakuła et al., 2021).
RG-1 organism
Morphological description: Colonies are smooth, moist, white to cream and yeast-like. Cultures are sensitive to
cycloheximide (actidione) and optimal growth occurs at 25
Vegetative cells are globose to ovoid, hyaline, varying in size from approximately 8-20 μm, and have a relatively
thick and highly refractile wall. No budding cells are present; reproduction is by the development of large spo-
rangia (thecae), which contain from 2-20 or more small sporangiospores (endospores or autospores), which are
asexually produced by nuclear division, and cleavage of the cytoplasm (Fig. 79.1; Table 79.1).
Molecular identification: ITS, D1/D2 sequencing may be used for accurate species identification (Ahrholdt
et al., 2012; Wang et al., 2014).
MALDI-ToF MS: Can provide reliable identification of Prototheca species (Ahrholdt et al., 2012; Murugaiyan
et al., 2012).
Key features: Achlorophyllous algae reproducing by sporangia (theca) and sporangiospores (autospores).
Prototheca species can be differentiated by assimilation tests and morphological criteria. The API 20C yeast
identification strip may be used for species identification.

(Berk. & M.A. Curtis) Jun F. Li, Ariyaw. & K.D. Hyde
Synonymy: Pithomyces chartarum (Berk. & M.A. Curtis) M.B. Ellis.
The genus Pseudopithomyces was introduced by Ariyawansa et al. (2015) to accommodate several species which had previously been classified in the genus Pithomyces, notably Pithomyces chartarum. Pseudopithomyces contains 13 species (Ariyawansa et al., 2015) that are commonly found from a very wide range of plant material, also from air, soil, hay, sawn timber and ceiling plaster. Pseudopithomyces chartarum (formerly Pithomyces chartarum) has long been reported as causing facial eczema of sheep. However, recent molecular evidence has identified at least two additional species Pseudopithomyces sacchari (formerly Pithomyces sacchari) and Pseudopithomyces maydicus (formerly Pithomyces maydicus) (da Cunha et al., 2014). Most human isolates are recovered from skin, nail, respiratory and sinus specimens.
RG-1 organism
Morphological description: Colonies are fast growing, suede-like to downy and black. Conidiophores are pale olive, smooth or verrucose, 2.5-10 x 2-3.5 μm. Conidiogenous cells integrated, intercalary or terminal, indeterminate, with one to two loci of similar width in the conidiogenous cells. Conidia are muriform, medium to dark brown, echinulate to verrucose, three (some up to five) euseptate, slightly constricted at the septa, with one or both median cells divided by longitudinal septa, thick-walled, broadly ellipsoidal, apex obtuse, base truncate and characteristically with part of the conidiogenous cell remaining attached as a small pedicel, 18-29 x 10-17 μm (Fig. 80.1).
Key features: Darkly-pigmented, multi-celled conidia produced on small peg-like branches of the vegetative hyphae.
Molecular identification: ITS and D1/D2 sequencing (da Cunha et al., 2014).
