(MycoBank no.: MB 803800; GenBank no.: KC481680) is a newly described endophytic fungus of a medicinal plant (Bael tree), growing in the tropical conserved rainforest in the Western Ghats of India. possesses distinct morphological, molecular and physiological features from the earlier reported The fungus forms characteristic rings of the ropy mycelium on potato dextrose agar medium. This sterile fungus is characterised by the presence of a pungent smell which is attributable to a blend of more than 23 volatile organic constituents, predominantly 3-cyclohexen-1-ol,1-(1,5-dimethyl-4-hexenyl)-4-methyl; 1,6-dioxacyclododecane-7,12-dione; 2,6-bis(1,1-dimethylethyl)-4-(1-oxopropyl) phenol; 2,4-di-tert-butylthiophenol and 4-octadecylmorpholine. In the anti-microbial assay using , growth of 75% of test fungi/yeasts and 72% of the test bacteria were completely inhibited. Therefore, holds potential for future application to be used as a myco-fumigation agent.
