Substantial difficulties in identifying Acremonium species imposed by their simple morphology have stimulated the use of molecular phylogeny in their identification. The array of fungi with acremonium-like conidiation has been shown to be highly polyphyletic from several lineages throughout Ascomycota. Most Acremonium species belong to order Hypocreales. One of the subclades within this order is Emericellopsis-clade (Insertae sedis), which includes species from various ecological niches. Previous studies have shown a phylogenetic separation of marine-derived and terrestrial isolates within Emericellopsis-clade.
