Isaria is a genus of fungi mostly in the order Hypocreales and family Clavicipitaceae, or by some authorities the Cordycipitaceae. It includes a large number of entomopathogenic species, some of them exploited as biopesticides : often previously assigned to the genus Paecilomyces.

<i>Stilbella</i> Genus of fungi

Stilbella is a genus of fungi in the family Bionectriaceae. A 1985 monograph includes 19 species. More recent estimates place about 60 species in the genus. The type species Stilbella fimetaria(Pers.) Lindau 1905 has a cosmopolitan distribution and grows on herbivore dung. It has pink or orange slimy conidia on white synnemata with phialidic conidiogenous cells. Several species have since been reclassified in other genera based on DNA phylogenies or the discovery of sexual states, such as Atractium, Stilbocrea, and Trichoderma.
