Cladosporium herbarum is a common fungus found worldwide in organic and inorganic matter.[1][2] It is efficiently distributed in the air, where it exists as the most frequently occurring fungal species.[1][2][3] It can grow over a wide range of temperatures including very cold environments, giving it the ability to grow on refrigerated meat and form "black spots".[1][3][4] Its high prevalence in the air and production of allergens makes C. herbarum an important exacerbant of asthma and hay fever.[5][6]
