Aspergillus waksmanii is a homothallic species of fungus in the genus Aspergillus which has been isolated from soil from New Jersey in the United States. [1] [2] [4] It is from the Fumigati section. [5] Several fungi from this section produce heat-resistant ascospores, and the isolates from this section are frequently obtained from locations where natural fires have previously occurred. [6] Aspergillus waksmanii produces apolar indoloterpenes. [7]
