Aspergillus parvulus is a species of fungus in the genus Aspergillus. It is from the Cervini section.[2] The species was first described in 1961.[1] It was isolated from soil in the United States and from feed ingredients in Argentina.[2] A. parvulus has been reported to produce naphthalenones.[2]
The genome of A. parvulus was sequenced as a part of the Aspergillus whole-genome sequencing project - a project dedicated to performing whole-genome sequencing of all members of the genus Aspergillus.[3] The genome assembly size was 32.73 Mbp.[3]
