Aspergillus /ˌæspərˈdʒɪləs/ is a genus consisting of several hundred mold species found in various climates worldwide.

Viewing the fungi under a microscope, Micheli was reminded of the shape of an aspergillum, from Latin spargere, and named the genus accordingly. Today "aspergillum" is also the name of an asexual spore-forming structure common to all Aspergilli; around one-third of species are also known to have a sexual stage.
