This Penicillium species also causes mortality for the mosquito Culex quinquefasciatus. Because of its mesophilic character, Penicillium citrinum occurs worldwide. The first statin (Mevastatin) was 1970 isolated from this species.

Penicillium saturniforme is a species of fungus in the genus Penicillium. It was first described in 2009 as a species of Eupenicillium in 2009, but transferred to the genus Penicillium two years later. The fungus was isolated from soil in Jilin Province, China. Phylogenetically close species are P. glabrum, P. lividum, P. purpurascens, P. spinulosum, and P. thomii all of which are in the subgenus Aspergilloides.

Penicillium solitum is an anamorph, mesophilic, salinity-tolerant, psychrotolerant species of fungus in the genus Penicillium which produces polygalacturonase, compactin, cyclopenin, cyclopenol, cyclopeptin, dehydrocompactin, dihydrocyclopeptin, palitantin, solistatin, solistatinol, viridicatin, viridicatol. P. Solitum forms dark blueish green colonies that are 22–28 mm in diameter on Czaek yeast extract and it is brownish orange on malt extract agar. The orange brown color is unique to P. Solitum and can be used to differentiate it from other similar Penicillium species. P. Solitum has been historically isolated in numerous places including on cheese rinds, on cured meats and in the antarctic environment. This species was isolated from air dried lamb thighs, on Faore Island. Penicillium solitum and Eurotium rubrum are the species which are found during the production of traditional produced Tyrolean smoked and cured ham. Penicillium solitum is a pathogen of pomaceous fruit.P. solitum causes blue rot in pome fruits through its production of polygalacturonase, which breaks down the apple’s cell wall.
