The chief of these are the aspergillus fumigatus, flavescens, niger, ficum, wenti, candidus, all of which are pathogenic to animals; and the aspergillus glaucus, ostranus, minimus, clavus, varians, and novus which are non-pathogenic. The one which has been most frequently described as causing ocular lesions is the aspergillus fumigatus. It consists of filaments (mycelium) attached to which are the reproductive organs consisting of radial arranged sternigia and conidia (spores). These molds are best examined without staining in a hanging-drop glycerine preparation. They stain badly with aniline dyes, but are well stained with Gram's method. On cultivation they grow well on all media, especially when acid. They give rise to a white, soft, furry mass which after a time becomes greenish toward the centre (A. fumigatus). In the cornea the aspergillum will only grow if a foreign body is implanted with it. It gives rise either to small.
