Gliocladium

Habitat and Health Implications
This fungus is found in soil or decaying plant matter and as parasites of
other fungi. It is reported to be allergenic. No cases of infection have been
reported in humans or animals. May be identified on surfaces by tape lifts,
tease mounts from bulk samples, and in air by culturable samples.
Gliocladium is found very infrequently in air samples because the spores are
formed in sticky masses and are not easily disseminated by air currents.
