Penicillium nordicum Dragoni & Cantoni ex C. Ramírez 1986

Penicillium nordicum is an anamorph species of fungus in the genus Penicillium which produces ochratoxin A.^[1][2][3][4] Penicillium nordicum contaminates protein rich foods and foods with high NaCl-konzentration.^[3][5] It is mostly found on dry-cured meat products and cheese products^[3][6]
