Ulocladium species are cosmopolitan dematiaceous (dark pigmented) fungi commonly found in the soil and on decaying herbaceous plants, paper, textiles, and wood. Although Ulocladium species are common contaminants, their presence indoors may indicate moisture intrusion as they grow optimally in high substrates with high water content.

Unidentifiable dematiaceous fungus

These fungi are darkly pigmented (dematiaceous) and produce conidia (spores) that are not readily identifiable.

Unidentifiable dematiaceous or hyaline conidia

When unidentifiable dematiaceous (dark pigmented) or hyaline conidia are noted on a direct microscopic examination, it indicates that no particular mold can be identified. Only the fungal conidia are present with no or little additional characteristics to fully identify and categorize them. These conidia may represent such yeast-like fungi as Aureobasidium, Hormonema, Sporidiobolus, Acremonium species, basidiomycetes (basidiospores), and Ascomycetes (ascospores).

Unidentifiable hyaline fungus

These fungi are lightly pigmented (hyaline) and produce conidia (spores) that are not readily identifiable.

Unidentifiable yeast

Unable to obtain an identification by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry; classification as a yeast is based on morphology only. This is not a definitive identification.

Unidentifiable yeast Type 1

Unable to obtain an identification by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry; classification as a yeast is based on morphology only. This is not a definitive identification.

Unidentifiable yeast Type 2

Unable to obtain an identification by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry; classification as a yeast is based on morphology only. This is not a definitive identification.

Unidentifiable zygomycete

Fungi belonging to the class Zygomycetes have a wide geographic distribution and include genera such as Rhizopus, Mucor, and Rhizomucor . They are thermotolerant and can use a variety of substrates as nutrient sources. They can be isolated in large numbers from soil or decomposing organic material. They have also been found in carpet and mattress dust, hay, flour, and potted plants. Their spores can often be found in the outdoor air.

Unidentified dematiaceous fungus

These fungi are darkly pigmented (dematiaceous) and produce conidia (spores) that are not readily identifiable.

Unidentified hyaline fungus

These fungi are colorless or transparent (hyaline) and produce conidia (spores) that are not readily identifiable.

Unidentified yeast

Classification as a yeast is based on morphology only. This is not a definitive identification.

Unrecoverable fungi

Due to microbial overgrowth, the recovery and identification of this organism is not possible.

Unrecoverable fungi Type 1

Due to microbial overgrowth, the recovery and identification of this organism is not possible.

Unrecoverable fungi Type 2

Due to microbial overgrowth, the recovery and identification of this organism is not possible.

Ustilago spp.

Ustilago species are yeast-like fungi known as smuts which are major plant pathogens.


Verticillium spp.

Verticillium species are fungi which are widely distributed on decaying vegetation and in soil. Some species are parasitic on other fungi, arthropods, and plants.

Volutella spp.

Volutella species are a type of fungus which cause a common leaf blight on plants.


Wallemia spp.

Wallemia species are fungi found in low-water environments. They are common agents of food spoilage.


Xylaria heliscus

Xylaria species are fungi that grow as finger-like or antler-like projections on dead, rotting wood.


Yeast

Yeasts are microscopic fungi consisting of single oval cells that reproduce by budding. They are widely dispersed in nature and are commonly found on plant leaves, flowers, and fruits, as well as in soil. Yeasts are also found on the skin and in the intestinal tracts of warm-blooded animals.
