Penicillium citrinum is an anamorph, mesophilic fungus species of the genus of Penicillium which produces tanzawaic acid A-D, ACC, Mevastatin, Quinocitrinine A, Quinocitrinine B, and nephrotoxic citrinin.[1][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11] Penicillium citrinum is often found on moldy citrus fruits and occasionally it occurs in tropical spices and cereals.[12] This Penicillium species also causes mortality for the mosquito Culex quinquefasciatus.[13][14] Because of its mesophilic character, Penicillium citrinum occurs worldwide.[6] The first statin (Mevastatin) was 1970 isolated from this species.[3]
