Periglandula are a genus of fungi in the family Clavicipitaceae. They live as epibionts, in a symbiotic relationship with two species of plant, Ipomoea asarifolia and Ipomoea corymbosa .^[2] They are known to produce ergot alkaloids related to lysergic acid such as ergine (lysergic acid amide; LSA).^[3]
