Aspergillus latus is a species of fungus in the genus Aspergillus in the Nidulantes section.[1]
The species was first published in 1939 as a variety of Aspergillus nidulans. It was described as separate species in 2016.[1] At the same time, Aspergillus montenegroi and Aspergillus sublatus were found to be homotypic synonyms of A. latus,[1] however as of August 2023, they continue to be listed as accepted species in Index Fungorum.
