Abstract
Penicillium imranianum was isolated along with other halophilic and halotolerant microorganisms from a man-made solar saltern in Phetchaburi province, Thailand. Morphological and molecular identifications were performed along with characterization studies, which proved it to be new as well as halophilic species. The name was obtained and released from mycobank (MB812859) after getting the accession ID (KP780293) from NCBI. The species is indexed in index fungorum and available as EMCB-HF08 and TISTR 3655 for public access. The species is found to have immense biotechnological potential.
