Summary
The taxonomy of Aspergillus Section Restricti (the Aspergillus restrictus Group) has been reviewed and revised on the basis of morphological taxonomy, a bibliographic review and a herbarium search. Three species are accepted: Aspergillus caesiellus Saito, A. penicillioides Spegazzini and A. restrictus G. Smith. A. conicus Blockwitz and A. gracilis Bainier are of uncertain application. A. itaconicus, also studied, is not related to species in this Section. A key and descriptions are included.
