Aspergillus egyptiacus is a species of fungus in the genus Aspergillus. It is from the Cavernicolus section.[2] The species was first described in 1972.[1] It was isolated from sandy soil in Egypt.[2]

Growth and morphology

A. egyptiacus has been cultivated on both Czapek yeast extract agar (CYA) plates and Malt Extract Agar Oxoid® (MEAOX) plates. The growth morphology of the colonies can be seen in the pictures below.
