Scopulariopsis
Scopulariopsis Bainier, Bull. Soc. mycol. Fr. 23(2): 98 (1907)
Bainier (1907) erected Scopulariopsis in Microascaceae (Microascales) with S. brevicaulis as the type species. Most of are saprobes, but some are recorded as endophytes and pathogens of mammals, insects and plants (Domsch et al. 1993, Sandoval-Denis et al. 2013, Li et al. 2017, Rashmi et al. 2019). Scopulariopsis species are reported from soils, air, living plants, plant debris, paper and moist indoor environments (Li et al. 2017). Previous studies have proven that species in this genus can adapt to extreme pH and ionic soils (Grum-Grzhimaylo et al. 2016).
