P. atrogriseum P. curvatum P. dimorphosporum P. globosum P. inflatum P. obovatum Phialemonium is a genus of fungi in the family Cephalothecaceae of the Ascomycota.
The genus was circumscribed by Walter Gams and Michael McGinnis in 1983.
The genus is intermediate between Acremonium and Phialophora.
[1] It is classified as a dematiaceous (dark-walled) fungus.
A study from Oxford Academy considered Phialemonium species to have been isolated from air, soil, industrial water, and sewage and although these species rarely cause human disease, infection is often fatal.
