Tolypocladium

See text Tolypocladium is a genus of fungi within the family Ophiocordycipitaceae.

[1] Tolypocladium was originally circumscribed as a genus containing anamorphic fungi.

[4] Quandt and colleagues formally synonymized Tolypocladium and Elaphocordyceps in 2014.

[1] Quandt and colleagues also synonymized the anamorphic genus Chaunopycnis with Tolypocladium.

[1] The immunosuppressant drug ciclosporin was originally isolated from T. inflatum, and has since been found in other species of Tolypocladium, some of which were formerly placed in Chaunopycnis.
